Preview: Yankees at Orioles (Game 1)
Gracenote
Jul 8, 2018

The Baltimore Orioles are losers of six straight and 13 of their last 14 as they get set to host the powerhouse New York Yankees in a traditional doubleheader on Monday. The Orioles own the worst record in the majors at 24-65 and are in the midst of a stretch of 14 games in 13 days heading into the All-Star break.

Baltimore averaged two runs during its just-completed six-game road trip and is reportedly fielding offers for the team's best hitter and its only All-Star, shortstop Manny Machado. Machado recorded two of the team's seven hits during Sunday's 10-1 loss at Minnesota and is batting .313 with 21 homers despite dealing with the trade rumors. The Yankees have plenty of players capable of providing instant offense in their lineup but managed to avoid a series loss on Sunday by playing small ball, with a sacrifice bunt putting a runner in scoring position ahead of Brett Gardner's RBI single in the 10th inning of a 2-1 win at Toronto. New York remains two games behind the Boston Red Sox in the American League East and will send CC Sabathia and Luis Cessa to the mound on Monday opposite righties Jimmy Yacabonis and Yefry Ramirez in a straight doubleheader beginning at 4:05 p.m.

TV: 4:05 p.m. ET, YES (New York), MASN (Baltimore)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Yankees LH CC Sabathia (6-3, 3.02 ERA) vs. Orioles RH Jimmy Yacabonis (0-0, 8.53)

Sabathia allowed three earned runs or fewer in each of his last seven starts and is coming off a win over Atlanta on Wednesday in which he scattered two runs and five hits across six innings. The 37-year-old tossed a season-high 103 pitches against the Braves and issued three walks while striking out five. Sabathia did not last as long against Baltimore at home on April 6, when he was reached for three runs - all solo homers - in four innings before leaving with hip soreness.

Yacabonis is being called up for the fourth time this season and is set to make his second start after getting the nod against Seattle on June 28. The 26-year-old lasted four innings in that outing and was charged with two runs on six hits while striking out five in four innings. Yacabonis owns a 3-2 record with a 2.91 ERA in 14 starts for Triple-A Norfolk this season.

WALK-OFFS

1. Yankees LH Aroldis Chapman (knee tendinitis) - named to the AL All-Star team with teammates RF Aaron Judge, RHP Luis Severino and 2B Gleyber Torres - left Saturday's game and was not used in a save situation on Sunday.

2. Baltimore RHP Alex Cobb left in the sixth inning on Sunday with an apparent injury to his throwing hand.

3. New York OF Aaron Hicks (left leg) was held out of the lineup on Sunday and is day-to-day.

PREDICTION: Yankees 7, Orioles 2

Preview: Phillies at Mets (Game 1)
Gracenote
Jul 8, 2018

The New York Mets have been shut out in back-to-back contests for the second time this season and own a disastrous 3-17 mark in their last 20 contests at Citi Field. The uphill climb for the Mets is a steep one on Monday as they encounter two stingy pitchers in a doubleheader to begin a four-game series against the visiting Philadelphia Phillies.

Philadelphia's Zach Eflin enters the opener with a 6-0 mark and 1.91 ERA in his last six outings, while fellow right-hander Aaron Nola - the probable starter for the nightcap - is 5-0 in his last seven trips to the mound. The surging Phillies saw their six-game winning streak halted in Pittsburgh on Sunday, with Nick Williams going deep in a 4-1 setback to mark the second time he's homered in the last four games. Brandon Nimmo led off the seventh inning with a single in Sunday's 9-0 setback to Tampa Bay to give him four hits to go along with six walks and four runs scored in his last five games. The Mets will look to channel the success they had against the Phillies when the National League East rivals met earlier this season, winning three of four contests after being rained out on April 2 and again on May 12.

TV: 4:10 p.m. ET, MLB Network, NBCS Philadelphia, SNY (New York)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Phillies RH Zach Eflin (7-2. 2.97 ERA) vs. Mets RH Zack Wheeler (2-6, 4.36)

Eflin's pinpoint control has been the calling card during his six-start winning streak, as he has struck out 34 batters against just six walks in 37 2/3 innings. The 24-year-old has struggled in three career appearances versus New York, posting an 0-2 mark while surrendering three homers in 16 1/3 frames. Eflin has flustered Asdrubal Cabrera (0-for-9), although Jose Reyes is 3-for-7 with a trio of doubles against the hurler.

Wheeler received his second straight no-decision despite two sterling starts, as he scattered five hits over seven scoreless innings versus Pittsburgh on June 27 before allowing two runs on three hits in 6 1/3 frames at Toronto on Tuesday. Offensive support hasn't been a friend to the 28-year-old, who owns an 0-4 mark in his last 11 outings despite registering a 3.76 ERA. Cesar Hernandez is 5-for-8 in his career versus Wheeler, who in turn has flustered Maikel Franco (0-for-5).

WALK-OFFS

1. NL East-leading Philadelphia is just 15-17 against division representatives.

2. New York is mired in a 14-series stretch without winning one.

3. Phillies CF Odubel Herrera went 5-for-13 with a homer, four RBIs and two runs scored in his last three games after going 2-for-37 with nine strikeouts in his previous nine.

Preview: Nationals at Pirates
Gracenote
Jul 8, 2018

The Washington Nationals saw their offense receive a jolt after a players-only meeting last week, erupting for 35 runs during a three-game winning streak before dropping the series finale against Miami. The Nationals look to rebound on Monday as they begin a seven-game road trip before the All-Star break with the opener of a three-game series against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Washington scored 27 runs en route to posting a four-game sweep of Pittsburgh earlier this season, with the latter going 3-for-22 with runners in scoring position in the series. Daniel Murphy didn't play in that series, but drove in a pair of runs in Sunday's 10-2 setback to the Marlins as he slowly works himself back since returning from the disabled list in mid-June. The Pirates snapped a five-game skid with a 4-1 triumph over Keystone State-rival Philadelphia on Sunday. Starling Marte is a robust 9-for-16 with a homer, four RBIs and three runs scored during his four-game hitting streak, although he went 2-for-12 with four strikeouts in the previous series against Washington.

TV: 7:05 p.m. ET, ESPN, MASN2 (Washington)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Nationals RH Jefry Rodriguez (0-0, 5.52 ERA) vs. Pirates RH Ivan Nova (4-6, 4.48)

Rodriguez will see his first action since retiring all three batters he faced in relief in Washington's wild 14-12 victory over Miami on Thursday. The 6-6 Dominican's last start ended after four innings against Philadelphia, versus which he permitted four runs and walked three batters in a no-decision on June 24. Rodriguez pitched well in his lone career road outing, scattering four hits on 4 2/3 scoreless relief innings at Atlanta on June 3.

Nova surrendered a franchise-worst five homers and seven runs total in Tuesday's 8-3 setback to the Los Angeles Dodgers. "It's not fun when you're giving up that many homers," the 31-year-old Dominican said. "Sometimes you give up that many runs, and you don't feel that bad. Giving up five homers, it's just too much." Nova, who owns a 4.91 ERA and 1.86 WHIP in four career starts versus Washington, was blitzed for eight runs (five earned) in 4 2/3 innings of a 9-3 loss to the Nationals on May 2.

WALK-OFFS

1. Pittsburgh RF Gregory Polanco has hit safely in nine of his last 11 games.

2. Nationals SS Wilmer Difo was 7-of-11 with a homer, four walks and three RBIs in the previous series with the Pirates.

3. Washington is a perfect 7-0 against NL Central representatives while Pittsburgh is just 5-12 versus the NL East.

Preview: Reds at Indians
Gracenote
Jul 8, 2018

Francisco Lindor is setting a blistering offensive pace for the Cleveland Indians this season, although the Cincinnati Reds have witnessed the same thing pretty much every time they have crossed paths with the 24-year-old shortstop. The three-time All-Star attempts to bounce back from a rare off-day when the Indians host the opener of a three-game interleague series Monday against the intrastate-rival Reds.

Lindor entered Sunday batting .458 this month and having scored at least one run in seven straight games to boost his total to a major league-best 79, but neither he (0-for-4) nor Cleveland (five hits) could get much going against Oakland in a 6-0 setback in the rubber match of their three-game set. His last game notwithstanding, the No. 8 overall selection in the 2011 draft has been nearly as good in 11 career contests versus the Reds, hitting .412 with five doubles, two homers and seven RBIs. Despite dropping two in a row to the Chicago Cubs over the weekend and sitting in the basement of the National League Central, Cincinnati is 17-8 over its last 25 contests since falling a season-high 21 games below .500 on June 9. Billy Hamilton is coming off a brilliant series against the Cubs in which he went 7-for-10 with two walks, four runs scored and five stolen bases.

TV: 7:10 p.m. ET, FS Ohio (Cincinnati), SportsTime Ohio (Cleveland)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Reds RH Anthony DeSclafani (3-1, 5.08 ERA) vs. Indians RH Mike Clevinger (7-3, 3.11)

DeSclafani started fast but failed to factor in the decision Tuesday against the Chicago White Sox, surrendering five runs and six hits - three homers - over 5 1/3 innings. The native of New Jersey has permitted nine earned runs over 11 2/3 frames in his last two outings after yielding a total of six across 17 innings during his three-game winning streak in mid-June. DeSclafani made both of his career starts versus Cleveland in 2015, going 0-1 with a 5.25 ERA.

Clevinger notched his third victory in four outings on July 1 at Oakland, permitting three runs and eight hits in six frames while not giving up a homer for the third straight time. The 27-year-old Citadel product is only 11 2/3 innings shy of last season's career high of 121 2/3 and owns a 5-1 record and 2.31 ERA when he has six or more days of rest between starts. Clevinger came away with a no-decision in his major-league debut against Cincinnati in 2016 after yielding four runs across 5 1/3 innings.

WALK-OFFS

1. Lindor was one of five Indians named to the American League All-Star team on Sunday, joining RHPs Corey Kluber and Trevor Bauer, OF Michael Brantley and 3B Jose Ramirez.

2. Reds 2B Scooter Gennett and 3B Eugenio Suarez received their first nods to the Midsummer Classic on Sunday, joining teammate and six-time All-Star 1B Joey Votto.

3. Cincinnati's .317 winning percentage at Progressive Field is the club's lowest at any current road ballpark (minimum of 40 games).

Preview: Tigers at Rays
Gracenote
Jul 8, 2018

The Tampa Bay Rays are coming off a pair of shutouts and continue to keep themselves around the .500 mark in the American League East thanks in large part to the pitching staff. That staff will try to continue posting zeros when the Rays host the Detroit Tigers in the opener of a three-game series on Monday.

Nathan Eovaldi took a perfect game into the seventh inning in Sundays 7-0 triumph over the New York Mets, one day after Blake Snell dominated in a 3-0 victory. Tampa Bay's staff allowed three or fewer runs in 10 of the last 12 games and is set to get a boost on Monday, when opening day starter Chris Archer rejoins the rotation after over a month on the disabled list. Archer will be taking on a Detroit offense that scored three or fewer runs in 13 of the last 18 contests and is coming off a 3-0 loss at home to the Texas Rangers on Sunday. The Tigers, who will send veteran Francisco Liriano to the mound on Monday, close the first half with a six-game road trip through Tampa Bay and Houston.

TV: 7:10 p.m. ET, FS Detroit, FS Sun (Tampa Bay)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Tigers LH Francisco Liriano (3-5, 4.03 ERA) vs. Rays RH Chris Archer (3-4, 4.24)

Liriano is winless in his last eight starts and suffered the loss in each of the last four while struggling with his control. The Dominican Republic native issued a season-high five walks over six innings at the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday and was charged with three runs, marking the seventh consecutive start in which he walked at least three. Liriano made five appearances - four starts - against Tampa Bay last season and went 1-1 with a 6.61 ERA and 16 walks in 16 1/3 total innings.

Archer is making his return to the rotation following over a month on the disabled list with an abdominal strain and is expected to be limited to 75 pitches. The North Carolina native was cruising before going down and allowed a total of three runs in his last four starts, spanning 23 2/3 innings. Archer was a tough-luck loser at Detroit on May 1, when he allowed two runs and six hits in six innings but could not get any support in a game Tampa Bay lost 2-1.

WALK-OFFS

1. Rays CF Kevin Kiermaier (back tightness) sat out Sunday but could be back in the lineup on Monday.

2. Detroit RF Nicholas Castellanos (wrist) was scratched from the lineup on Sunday and is day-to-day.

3. Tampa Bay C Wilson Ramos and Detroit RHP Joe Jimenez were selected to the AL All-Star team on Sunday.

Preview: Brewers at Marlins
Gracenote
Jul 9, 2018

The Milwaukee Brewers carry loads of momentum into an eight-game road trip leading into the All-Star break, beginning with the first of three games at the Miami Marlins on Monday. All-Star snub Jesus Aguilar slugged two home runs to move into a tie for the National League lead with 22 as the Brewers topped the Atlanta Braves 10-3 on Sunday to finish a 6-1 homestand.

While Aguilar did not make the All-Star squad for the NL, teammates Christian Yelich and Lorenzo Cain did. Yelich, who spent his first five seasons with the Marlins before being traded to Milwaukee this offseason, is returning to Miami for the first time since the deal. His former team is coming off an impressive showing in a 10-2 win at Washington on Sunday, piling up a season-high 22 hits - including a career-high five by first-time All-Star J.T. Realmuto - to avoid a four-game sweep. Realmuto has a double and a single in five career at-bats against Chase Anderson, who starts the series opener for the Brewers opposite Jose Urena.

TV: 7:10 p.m. ET, FS Wisconsin (Milwaukee), FS Florida (Miami)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Brewers RH Chase Anderson (6-6, 3.99 ERA) vs. Marlins RH Jose Urena (2-9, 4.18)

Anderson has found the groove that enabled him to sport a sub-3.00 ERA last year, allowing three runs on seven hits in 17 1/3 innings over his last three starts. He has walked just two batters over the past two outings after issuing 11 free passes through the previous four starts. The 30-year-old allowed three runs in 5 1/3 innings to defeat the Marlins at home in April and is 3-2 with a 4.04 ERA in six career matchups.

Urena has two scoreless outings in his last three starts after blanking Tampa Bay over five frames Wednesday. He owns a solid 3.88 ERA and 1.17 WHIP in 10 starts at home but is 0-7 at Marlins Park. For his career, the 26-year-old sports an odd split of 7-21 with a 4.02 ERA at home and 14-9, 5.28 on the road.

WALK-OFFS

1. Aguilar, who is on the "Final Vote" ballot and could still be selected as the NL's last All-Star player, is 5-for-11 with three home runs, one double and seven RBIs over his last three games.

2. Realmuto is 13-for-33 in July.

3. Cain (groin) was reinstated from the 10-day disabled list Sunday while RHP Aaron Wilkerson was optioned to Triple-A Colorado Springs.

Preview: Rangers at Red Sox
Gracenote
Jul 8, 2018

The Boston Red Sox own the best record in baseball and just finished off a nine-game road trip with six consecutive victories. The Red Sox will play their final seven games before the All-Star break at home, beginning when the Texas Rangers visit for the opener of a three-game series on Monday.

Boston, which had five players named to the American League All-Star team on Sunday, pounded out an average of 8.3 runs over the last six games as the offense got big contributions from the likes of Mookie Betts, J.D. Martinez and Xander Bogaerts. Andrew Benintendi got off to a bit of a slow start on the trip but picked things up in Kansas City over the weekend, going 8-for-11 with seven runs scored in the series and a recording a stretch of 11 straight appearances reaching base before striking out in his final at-bat on Sunday. The Rangers are sitting in last place in the American League West but began their road trip by earning a split of a four-game series at Detroit, capped by a 3-0 victory on Sunday. Texas will try to tame Benintendi and the Boston offense with veteran left-hander Mike Minor on Monday while the Red Sox send lefty Eduardo Rodriguez to the mound.

TV: 7:10 p.m. ET, FS Southwest (Texas), NESN (Boston)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Rangers LH Mike Minor (6-4, 4.63 ERA) vs. Red Sox LH Eduardo Rodriguez (10-3, 3.84)

Minor allowed three or fewer earned runs in each of his last five starts and is 2-0 in that span. The Vanderbilt product was trying to make it three straight wins on Wednesday but had to settle for a no-decision against Houston after allowing three earned runs on seven hits and three walks in six innings. Minor earned a win at home over Boston on May 3, when he yielded three runs and seven hits in six frames.

Rodriguez turned in one of his best outings of the season on Wednesday, scattering three hits across six scoreless innings and striking out six to earn a win at Washington. The Venezuela native lost his previous two starts while serving up a total of 10 runs - nine earned - and 14 hits in 10 innings against Seattle and the New York Yankees. Rodriguez struck out a season-high 10 at Texas on May 5 but was charged with five runs in six innings and did not factor in the decision.

WALK-OFFS

1. Rangers RF Shin-Soo Choo, who was selected to the AL All-Star team as a reserve, set a franchise record by reaching base in his 47th straight game on Sunday.

2. Boston placed LHP Brian Johnson (hip) and C Christian Vazquez (finger) on the 10-day DL Sunday.

3. Texas acquired OF Austin Jackson and RHPs Cory Gearrin and Jason Bahr from the San Francisco Giants in exchange for a player to be named or cash considerations.

Preview: Yankees at Orioles (Game 2)
Gracenote
Jul 8, 2018

The Baltimore Orioles are losers of six straight and 13 of their last 14 as they get set to host the powerhouse New York Yankees in a traditional doubleheader on Monday. The Orioles own the worst record in the majors at 24-65 and are in the midst of a stretch of 14 games in 13 days heading into the All-Star break.

Baltimore averaged two runs during its just-completed six-game road trip and is reportedly fielding offers for the team's best hitter and lone All-Star, shortstop Manny Machado. Machado recorded two of the team's seven hits during Sunday's 10-1 loss at Minnesota and is batting .313 with 21 homers despite dealing with the trade rumors. The Yankees have plenty of players capable of providing instant offense in their lineup but managed to avoid a series loss on Sunday by playing small ball, with a sacrifice bunt putting a runner in scoring position ahead of Brett Gardner's RBI single in the 10th inning of a 2-1 win at Toronto. New York remains two games behind the Boston Red Sox in the American League East and will send CC Sabathia and Luis Cessa to the mound on Monday opposite righties Jimmy Yacabonis and Yefry Ramirez in a straight doubleheader beginning at 4:05 p.m.


TV: 7:35 p.m, ET, YES (New York), MASN (Baltimore)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Yankees RH Luis Cessa (0-1, 5.00 ERA) vs. Orioles RH Yefry Ramirez (0-2, 2.51)

New York is expected to recall Cessa to make a spot start in the nightcap, which will mark his first appearance in the majors since a loss at Philadelphia on June 27. The 26-year-old surrendered three runs and five hits over three innings against the Phillies in his first start among five major league appearances this season. Cessa tossed a perfect inning of relief against Baltimore in his season debut on April 7, striking out a pair.

Ramirez is making his third career major league start and fourth appearance after yielding only one hit in five innings at Philadelphia on Wednesday. The 24-year-old, who worked five scoreless innings of relief in his previous appearance on June 28, still managed to get saddled with the loss against the Phillies while being charged with two runs - one earned. Ramirez went 3-5 with a 3.88 ERA for Triple-A Norfolk this season.

WALK-OFFS

1. Yankees LH Aroldis Chapman (knee tendinitis) - named to the AL All-Star team with teammates RF Aaron Judge, RHP Luis Severino and 2B Gleyber Torres - left Saturday's game and was not used in a save situation on Sunday.

2. Baltimore RHP Alex Cobb left in the sixth inning on Sunday with an apparent injury to his throwing hand.

3. New York OF Aaron Hicks (left leg) was held out of the lineup on Sunday and is day-to-day.

Preview: Phillies at Mets (Game 2)
Gracenote
Jul 8, 2018

The New York Mets have been shut out in back-to-back contests for the second time this season and own a disastrous 3-17 mark in their last 20 contests at Citi Field. The uphill climb for the Mets is a steep one on Monday as they encounter two stingy pitchers in a doubleheader to begin a four-game series against the visiting Philadelphia Phillies.

Philadelphia's Zach Eflin enters the opener with a 6-0 mark and 1.91 ERA in his last six outings, while fellow right-hander Aaron Nola - the probable starter for the nightcap - is 5-0 in his last seven trips to the mound. The surging Phillies saw their six-game winning streak halted in Pittsburgh on Sunday, with Nick Williams going deep in a 4-1 setback to mark the second time he's homered in the last four games. Brandon Nimmo led off the seventh inning with a single in Sunday's 9-0 setback to Tampa Bay to give him four hits to go along with six walks and four runs scored in his last five games. The Mets will look to channel the success they had against the Phillies when the National League East rivals met earlier this season, winning three of four contests after being rained out on April 2 and again on May 12.

TV: 7:40 p.m. ET, NBCS Philadelphia, SNY (New York)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Phillies RH Aaron Nola (11-2, 2.41 ERA) vs. Mets RH Corey Oswalt (0-1, 7.94)

Nola recorded his third win in as many trips to the mound and 14th quality start in his 16 outings on Wednesday after allowing one run in seven innings of a 4-1 triumph over Baltimore. The 25-year-old turned in a pretty strong outing against the Mets on May 13, yielding Yoenis Cespedes' solo homer as the lone run permitted in six frames of a 4-2 victory. Michael Conforto (3-for-10) has also gone deep against Nola and Asdrubal Cabrera is 4-for-11, but the hurler has flustered Devin Mesoraco (0-for-8).

Oswalt has yet to venture past four innings in either one of two starts with the Mets, as he yielded six runs on as many hits in 2 2/3 frames of an 8-2 setback at Miami on June 29 before allowing two runs in four innings at Toronto on Wednesday. The 24-year-old has permitted just 13 hits in his three outings this season, although three of those have left the park. Oswalt will be making his first start at Citi Field.

WALK-OFFS

1. NL East-leading Philadelphia is just 15-17 against division representatives.

2. New York is mired in a 14-series stretch without winning one.

3. Phillies CF Odubel Herrera went 5-for-13 with a homer, four RBIs and two runs scored in his last three games after going 2-for-37 with nine strikeouts in his previous nine.

Preview: Royals at Twins
Gracenote
Jul 9, 2018

After picking on one last-place team over the weekend, the Minnesota Twins begin a new week looking to do the same when they host the Kansas City Royals in the opener of a three-game series Monday night. The Twins outscored the hapless Baltimore Orioles by a 26-9 margin in sweeping four straight, capped by Sunday's 10-1 win.

Brian Dozier slugged a three-run homer to pace an 11-hit attack for Minnesota, which is one victory shy of matching a season-high five-game winning streak accomplished in May. The Royals (25-64) are plummeting in the other direction with nine consecutive losses, which is tied for their longest slide of the year. They gave up 32 runs in dropping three straight to the Boston Red Sox over the weekend and enter a six-game road trip just one game better than Baltimore (24-65) for the worst record in the majors. Kansas City gives the ball to left-hander Danny Duffy in the series opener opposite Minnesota right-hander Jose Berrios, who was named as the Twins' lone All-Star Game representative Sunday.

TV: 8:10 p.m. ET, FS Kansas City, FS North (Minnesota)

PITCHING MATCHUP: Royals LH Danny Duffy (4-8, 5.19 ERA) vs. Twins RH Jose Berrios (8-7, 3.54)

Duffy will take a second crack at career win No. 50 after he faltered in his first attempt while allowing six runs in six innings of a loss to Cleveland. He gave up one run and seven hits across 12 innings with 14 strikeouts over his previous two outings. The 29-year-old limited the Twins to one run in six frames in a no-decision at home May 29.

Berrios has lost his last two starts, although he was solid at Milwaukee on Wednesday when he threw seven innings of three-run ball. He has served up five home runs in 11 1/3 innings during the two-game skid.
