With the Yankees amid a stretch of 16 consecutive games without an off day, a streak that runs until July 2, the club decided to have top pitching prospect Elmer Rodríguez make a spot start Sunday, giving each member of the rotation an extra day to rest and refresh. That

Pete Crow-Armstrong continued his hot streak and Logan Gilbert spun a pair of excellent starts to earn the duo this week’s NL and AL Player of the Week awards, respectively. A jaw-dropping catch made while leaping onto the top of a wall also helped earn the Athletics’ Colby Thomas Play

As he continues adjusting to his new role out of the bullpen, Carlos Lagrange delivered the goods on Sunday. Lagrange, the Yankees’ No. 4 prospect and MLB Pipeline’s No. 72 overall, struck out a pair in a scoreless seventh inning Sunday. The flamethrowing righty helped preserve a narrow lead for

Gavin Fien has been tearing up Single-A in June. The Nationals’ No. 8 prospect went yard twice on Sunday, the first multi-homer game of his young career, to power Fredericksburg to a 3-0 win over Salem. Fien finished the day 2-for-4 with two RBIs on the pair of solo shots,

After impressing with a scoreless outing in the Spring Breakout for the Angels this year, Dylan Jordan's strikeout stuff is turning some heads at Single-A. Jordan (LAA No. 10 prospect) racked up 10 K’s with 17 whiffs in five scoreless innings for Rancho Cucamonga on Thursday, earning the win in

Jhonny Level has been one of the fastest-rising prospects in the Minor Leagues this season, and a bump to High-A at just 19 years old hasn’t slowed him yet. The Giants’ No. 3 prospect and MLB Pipeline’s No. 60 overall, Level crushed his first home run with Eugene on Thursday

We just saw one of the greatest pitching performances in the Athletes Unlimited Softball League’s young history. Utah Talons ace Montana Fouts set a new league record with 12 strikeouts in Thursday’s 4-3 win over the Texas Volts. She completed all seven innings, scattering five hits and taking home a

Joey Votto has become a weekly fixture as a guest on “MLB Now,” and he provided some cuteness overload on Thursday with an excellent story to go with it. Making this television appearance from his car, Votto also had a furry friend traveling alongside him. Host Brian Kenny asked Votto

The Braves have been hit -- hard -- by injuries in 2026. And it’s turning them toward extreme measures just to get through nine innings. For the first time in an MLB game since Aug. 21, 2017, Atlanta star Matt Olson did not take the field at first base. He

The Leiter family has its fingerprints all over MLB’s pitching history. Another hurler is starting to follow in the footsteps of those that have come before him. Cam Leiter, the Dodgers’ No. 21 prospect, twirled his second consecutive start with seven strikeouts in three innings or fewer. On Wednesday, he

I don’t know about you, but Ethan Petry was definitely feeling 22 on Wednesday, assuming another trip around the sun provides a boost in home-run pop. Petry, the Nationals’ No. 13 prospect, hit a pair of big flies for Double-A Harrisburg in an 11-6 victory over Erie at FNB Field.

There was good news at Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday night for the White Sox. Catcher Kyle Teel (hamstring strain/LCL sprain) and left-handed starter Noah Schultz (patellar tendinitis) each made their first appearances of a rehab assignment with the Knights. Schultz started on the mound, and Teel went 2-for-3 with a

He’s become The Vulture, and no, we’re not talking about the “Spider-Man” villain. We’re talking about Aaron Ashby, the Brewers' lights-out reliever who leads the Major Leagues in wins and became the first to double digits on Tuesday. Ashby (10-0, 2.86 ERA) entered the seventh inning Tuesday protecting a 1-0

Just over halfway through June, the scorching-hot Charlie Condon has already tied his personal best for most home runs in a single calendar month, and he did it off of a rehabbing Major League starter. Condon, the Rockies’ No. 2 prospect and MLB Pipeline’s No. 72 overall, took Astros starter

The Brewers’ loaded farm system just landed one highly anticipated prospect in the Major Leagues, as Cooper Pratt (MLB Pipeline’s No. 63 prospect) made his debut for Milwaukee on Tuesday. It now looks like another of the Crew’s five top-100 prospects is pushing toward his debut. Jett Williams (MIL No.

We’re nearing the official halfway point of the 2026 MLB season, meaning we’re getting a pretty good idea of which players are at the top of their games this year. But we’ve also seen some major developments on that front, like Aaron Judge’s long-term injury and the elbow surgery that

Broken bats are a common occurrence on the diamond. Jam shots, off the end of the bat, etc. … it’s normal to see a cracked piece of lumber flying out of the batter’s box. In softball, though, where the pros are still using metal and composite bats? Not so common.

It’s well known by now that Jacob Misiorowski is in the midst of one of the greatest stretches by a starting pitcher in baseball history. It’s also pretty well known that “The Miz” loves Pokémon … a lot. Those two things came together Friday night, as Misiorowski dealt a one-hit

Selected in the third round of the 2025 Draft, Ryan Wideman was a strong and fast defender with questions about how his swing would play in professional baseball. After hitting just .229 in 26 games during his debut last year and making some adjustments, Wideman is opening eyes in 2026.

Max Clark has been proving why he’s the Tigers’ top prospect and MLB Pipeline’s No. 7 overall while finding his footing at Triple-A Toledo this season. His latest heater is only further solidifying that. Clark racked up three hits Sunday, his third such game in 2026, and additionally stole a

The Cubs are going for a sweep as they wrap up their series against the Giants today at Oracle Park in San Francisco, with the game airing on ABC or via the ESPN app. San Francisco took two of three at Wrigley Field last weekend, but the Cubs have won

Yet to make his MLB debut in 2026, Shane Bieber (right elbow inflammation) sure looked like he was getting close to that goal on Thursday. Bieber made his fourth rehab start overall and second with Triple-A Buffalo, dealing five scoreless innings with four strikeouts in a 3-1 win over Syracuse

Eli Willits is quickly making himself at home with High-A Wilmington. Willits -- the No. 1 pick from the 2025 Draft -- homered on Thursday to aid a 9-5 win for the Blue Rocks over Greensboro at First National Bank Field. It was already Willits’ third big fly in just

If you haven’t already, it’s probably time to invest in Josiah Hartshorn stock. The Cubs’ No. 7 prospect has absolutely crushed his way through his first season in the Minor Leagues, and he went deep again Thursday for High-A South Bend in a seven-inning 16-7 loss to Peoria at Four

Cal Raleigh is looking awfully good as he works his way back from a right oblique strain, the 29-year-old’s first career stint on the injured list. And opposing Triple-A pitchers are probably hoping the Big Dumper is back in the big leagues sooner than later. Raleigh on Thursday hit his
