The Los Angeles Angels designated former Padres reliever Adam Cimber for assignment. He has a 7.03 ERA with 19 strikeouts, 14 walks and allowing 20 hits and 19 earned runs across 24.1 innings. The Angels have to make a decision about Cimber by July 29.

The most action revolves around the White Sox, who are threatening the 1962 Mets record for futility but still have great trade candidates and may have the best sale. 

All-Star reliever-turned-starter Garrett Crochet has been seen as pretty likely to go. However, as The Post reported, Crochet’s plan is to keep starting for the White Sox (or whomever acquires him) for health maintenance purposes but only to pitch in October if there’s an extension. 

You can’t blame the superb reliever-turned-starter with one Tommy John on his ledger, considering he’s already up from 12 ²/₃ innings in 2023 to 111 ¹/₃ on a...

Stay updated on everything baseball with our morning MLB News & Moments articles. We’ve got you covered to keep you in the know. It took until his 12th appearance in MLB, but Paul Skenes finally has a loss in his ledger, albeit not a very fair one. Facing the Cardinals and Lance Lynn (who became the sixth active pitcher to reach 2,000 strikeouts), Skenes flashed his usual electric stuff to keep hitters off-balance, allowing only two hits and one run through the first five innings. With the offensively-challenged Pirates failing to provide any run support, Skenes cruised through three perfect innings and was at 93 pitches when Pittsburgh finally broke through in the bottom of the eighth to tie the game. While manager Derek Shelton had been criticized by removing the righty phenom during no-hit bids, this time he may have been too caught up in the moment, as Skenes was brought back in the ninth to try to earn a deserved win. Alas, the Cardinals got two more hits, with Alec Burleson’s two-strike knock driving in the winning run. In the end, Skenes left his line at 8.1 innings, with four hits, zero walks, and eight strikeouts. Baseball can be cruel like that.

I don’t know about you but summer is definitely my favorite season and I am definitely a sun worshipper. Living in the Pacific Northwest, we do not see enough of it so when it is here, that is where you will find me. Everything I do I do outside when the sun is out and the weather is warm. I wonder who else feels this way. I wonder what Zodiac Signs love the Sunshine. Want to find out? Let’s do a little research.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Josh Naylor singled with two outs in the eighth inning, scoring younger brother Bo Naylor with the go-ahead run, as the AL Central-leading Cleveland Guardians edged the Detroit Tigers 2-1 on Wednesday night. Bo Naylor drew a walk against Beau Brieske (1-1), then stole second base. Following an intentional walk to José Ramírez, Josh Naylor lined a ball up the middle that second baseman Colt Keith could only deflect into center field. “All I know is that Josh is a competitor,” Bo Naylor said. “He almost wants to get it over with and just kind of get in the box because he’s always ready for his turn and his chance to do something big.” Hunter Gaddis (4-2) struck out all three batters in the eighth, and Emmanuel Clase pitched the ninth for his AL-high 31st save to complete a combined two-hitter. Scott Barlow and Tim Herrin also worked in relief after staff ace Tanner Bibee exited with leg cramps.

The Kansas City Royals and Arizona Diamondbacks couldn’t be further from rivals. They’ve only met 34 times in their history. But you’d never realize that after seeing how Monday night’s game went between the two teams.
Royals shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. is having himself a breakout season, and he put on a show against the D-backs pitching staff in the series opener. Witt tripled, double and homered in his first three at-bats. So, when he came to the plate in the sixth inning a single away from the cycle, the entire crowd at Kauffman Stadium was on their feet. They wanted...

Brewers fans, rejoice: There might be another Fielder on the way to Milwaukee. According to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic, the Brewers have signed 19-year-old Jadyn Fielder -- the son of 12-year MLB veteran Prince Fielder -- after Jadyn was not selected in the 2024 MLB Draft. Jadyn played high school baseball at TNXL Academy in Ocoee, Fla., and participated in the 2024 MLB Draft League with the Frederick Keys.

Welcome back to Buy & Sell, where this week’s theme is “Last Month’s trash is this Month’s Treasure”. Too much time looking at xwOBA rolling windows will do that to ya. Several of the hottest hitters right now could have been picked up free on waiver wires just weeks ago even in AL-only leagues, because that’s just how baseball seems to be this year. And with more injuries cropping up (looking at you J-Rod and Albies), you’ll have to close your eyes and hope you pick a winner. Or read this instead and just maybe have the next one… though I guess you can close your eyes while you click if it makes you feel cool. I don’t recommend it, but I mean, you do you. On to the list!

Two high upside holds options returned from the IL this past week after long layoffs, with Julian Merryweather making his first appearance since April and Brock Stewart pitching in his first games since May 1. Merryweather’s velocity still remains down from where it was last year, but I’m hoping that will come over time. The same goes with Stewart who was down about 1.5 mph in his return, so we will need to be patient with the two of them. I do prefer Merryweather over Stewart for the time being, mostly due to opportunity, as the Cubs bullpen is depleted while the Twins bullpen is loaded right now.
