  • Charlie Condon RF | COL

    Rockies' Charlie Condon: Pushing for promotion

    Condon went 30-for-73 (.411) with 12 home runs, two doubles, five triples, 31 RBI and a 10:19 BB:K over his last 19 games with Triple-A Albuquerque.

    Condon was the third pick in the loaded 2024 MLB Draft, and he is doing all he can to join a host of talented classmates at the top level. While Condon appears ready to see action at the big-league level, the Rockies are getting quality production at the two positions Condon has filled this season -- first base and right field -- so it's unclear just how close he is to getting the call.

  • Jacob Young CF | WAS

    Nationals' Jacob Young: On base four times in win

    Young went 2-for-3 with two walks, two doubles, a run scored and an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Red Sox.

    The center fielder produced his first multi-hit performance since June 14, snapping a 4-for-36 (.111) slump over his prior 12 games. Young remains inconsistent at the plate, but he's flashing more power than ever before, slashing .225/.275/.376 in 277 plate appearances this season with a career-high eight homers along with eight steals, 31 RBI and 33 runs.

  • Tyler Callihan RF | PIT

    Pirates' Tyler Callihan: Moving to bench Thursday

    Callihan is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Phillies.

    Callihan will head to the bench for the second time in the series while the Pirates make room in the lineup for Marcell Ozuna, who will serve as the club's designated hitter and No. 7 batter. After getting his time with Pittsburgh off to an excellent start upon being called up from Triple-A Indianapolis in late May, Callihan has cooled down considerably. Over his last 12 games, Callihan is slashing .143/.194/.321 with a 45.2 percent strikeout rate.

  • Eric Hartman OF | ATL

    Braves' Eric Hartman: First 20-30 player at any level

    Hartman went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored for High-A Rome on Wednesday.

    It's a modest single-game line, but the long ball made Hartman the first player this year at any level to reach 20 homers and 30 steals -- and he's done it in just 71 games. The 20-year-old has rocketed up prospect lists this season while producing a .290/.357/.559 slash line that comes with a respectable 22.7 percent strikeout rate. Per Jesse Borek of MLB.com, Ronald Acuna was the last Atlanta minor-leaguer to record a 20-30 campaign in 2017, while Eric Davis with the Reds in 1987 is the only major-leaguer to reach those milestones more quickly in a season since 1900.

  • Brandon Marsh LF | PHI

    Phillies' Brandon Marsh: Homers again Wednesday

    Marsh went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 10-6 win over the Pirates.

    Marsh extended the Phillies' lead to 6-2 in the third inning with a solo shot off Paul Skenes. It's the 15th homer of the season for Marsh, leaving him one shy of his career high. The outfielder has been red hot at the plate, going 16-for-43 (.372) with six home runs and a 1.237 OPS over his last 10 games. It's been a breakout campaign overall for the 28-year-old Marsh, who's now slashing .319/.352/.530 with 46 RBI, 50 runs scored and eight stolen bases across 324 plate appearances.

  • Jung Hoo Lee RF | SF

    Giants' Jung Hoo Lee: Nabs sixth steal

    Lee went 2-for-4 with one RBI, a stolen base and two runs scored in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Lee has just six steals on the season, but he's logged three of them over his last 12 games. In that span, he has gone 12-for-43 (.279) at the plate. The outfielder is batting .319 with an .804 OPS, five home runs, 32 RBI, 43 runs scored, 19 doubles and three triples over 78 contests this season.

  • Giants' Victor Bericoto: Goes yard Wednesday

    Bericoto went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Bericoto is up to four homers this season, including three over his last six games. The outfielder is getting a decent share of playing time lately, and that should continue with Casey Schmitt likely to be at third base more often while Matt Chapman (abdomen) is out. Bericoto is batting .308 with a .966 OPS, six RBI, five runs scored and a double over 40 plate appearances this season.

  • Heliot Ramos RF | NYY

    Giants' Heliot Ramos: Homer, triple in win

    Ramos went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a triple, a second RBI and two total runs scored in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Ramos homered for the second time in four games since he returned from a quadriceps strain. This his first multi-hit effort in that span. Ramos is now batting .268 with a .767 OPS, six homers, 23 RBI, 23 runs scored, 12 doubles, two triples and no stolen bases over 48 contests this season. He should be expected to maintain a starting role moving forward.

  • Mickey Moniak LF | COL

    Rockies' Mickey Moniak: Single shy of cycle Wednesday

    Moniak went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a triple, a double, three total RBI and two total runs scored in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Marlins.

    Moniak had a chance at the cycle, but he flew out in the seventh inning and didn't get another at-bat. This was his first multi-hit effort since May 13, when he also came up a single shy of the cycle versus the Pirates. He's batting .271 with a .922 OPS, 14 homers, three triples, 10 doubles, 35 RBI, 25 runs scored and a stolen base over 52 contests this season. Moniak has gone just 6-for-27 over nine games since returning from ankle tendinitis, but he has homered in each of the last two contests.

  • Brewers' Garrett Mitchell: Collects four hits in win

    Mitchell went 4-for-4 with two doubles, a triple, an RBI and a run scored Wednesday in a 4-2 win against Cincinnati.

    The Reds could not get Mitchell out as he notched his second straight multi-hit game and fourth outing this season with more than one extra-base hit. Mitchell started July on a strong note after finishing June with a .293/.346/.507 slash line in 24 games. The 27-year-old has been a major contributor all season for the Brewers with an .800 OPS while working as the club's primary center fielder.
