MLB News: Scores, Standings, Stats, Trades, Rumors (2024)

Trying to assess how this year’s Trade Deadline might play out can be an exercise in futility, with 24 of the 30 teams in the Majors entering play Tuesday within four games of a postseason spot. That doesn’t mean we can’t give it a shot, right? The White Sox, Angels,

ST. LOUIS -- We are officially one month into Paul Skenes’ Major League career. He arrived to the Majors on May 11, and on Tuesday, June 11, he tossed a career-high 6 1/3 innings over 103 pitches -- also a career-high at Busch Stadium. The Pirates’ offense broke through in

LOS ANGELES -- After every homer, Teoscar Hernández runs out of the dugout with a handful of sunflower seeds and throws them at a teammate’s face. It’s something Hernández has done since his time in Toronto and has now become the Dodgers’ home run celebration this season. The Dodgers are

BOSTON -- Move over Babe Ruth, "June Schwarber" has finally arrived. It came a bit late this year, but Kyle Schwarber's June dominance could not have come at a better time for the Phillies. Schwarber clubbed his first home run of the month on the opening pitch of the Phils'

KANSAS CITY -- Aaron Judge’s home runs feel inevitable. When he steps up to the plate, his teammates say they expect him to blast one out. He has lofty -- plain unrealistic -- expectations, but somehow, his past 41 games have absolutely blown those to shreds. Judge crushed his Major

Read our story on the balloting format, which includes two phases of fan voting to determine the All-Star starters.

ST. PETERSBURG -- The Rays weren’t happy when they left Tropicana Field on Monday night, having suffered a four-game sweep at the hands of the Orioles. They weren’t particularly pleased with the way Tuesday’s series opener against the Cubs started, either, as they were behind by two runs heading into

SEATTLE -- For the second straight night, Cal Raleigh came through with another clutch moment in a season that’s been full of them, lifting the Mariners to a 4-3 win over the White Sox with a two-out, two-run, go-ahead double in the seventh inning on Tuesday night at T-Mobile Park.

The night was dark, the rain was falling hard. It was no time to be visiting the deteriorating west side of Birmingham, Ala. And with the water pouring into a vacant, ancient baseball stadium, pooling on its unkempt field and within its worn walls, it was no time to form

In another life, Joe Ryan might be a park ranger or a horticulturist or maybe just a Northern California beach bum, riding the waves by day and camping out under the stars at night. After all, long before the famed Grateful Dead-loving pitcher was the ace of the Twins' staff,

BALTIMORE -- The first pitcher Jorge Mateo had to face after spending eight days on the concussion injured list? Not an easy opponent: Braves left-hander Max Fried, a 2022 All-Star and one of MLB’s top hurlers who possesses a wide array of offerings that the Orioles knew could present a

The unquestionable strength of the 2024 Draft is college position players. They claim the first four spots on MLB Pipeline's Draft Top 200 list, seven could go in the first 10 picks and as many as 20 could land in the first round. It will be an upset if the

SAN DIEGO -- Fernando Tatis Jr. is halfway to Benito. With his first-inning single in the Padres' eventual 4-3 walk-off victory over Oakland on Tuesday night, Tatis wasted no time extending his hitting streak to 17 games -- the longest active mark in baseball. Seventeen more, and he'd match the

SAN FRANCISCO -- Ronel Blanco snapped his two-game losing streak by holding the Giants to one run and three hits while striking out eight batters in six innings to lead the Astros to a 3-1 win over San Francisco on Tuesday night at Oracle Park. Blanco, who had given up

MINNEAPOLIS -- They haven’t all been easy and they haven’t all been pretty. Some have been blowouts and some have been nail biters. But it’s probably safe to say that none of Bud Black’s 500 victories as Rockies manager were secured by a 7-6-3 double play. Jake Cave made a

PHOENIX -- Randal Grichuk and Corbin Carroll nearly hit for cycles while Jordan Montgomery turned in a good start after struggling mightily in his previous two as the D-backs defeated the Angels, 9-4, on Tuesday night in the opener of a three-game set at Chase Field. Grichuk finished a single

MILWAUKEE -- Forget Plan A, this wasn’t even Plan Z. Batting first, the recent callup who’s been playing second base professionally for a month. Batting second, the catcher. Spencer Horwitz and Danny Jansen aren’t the duo anyone expected atop this lineup back when the season began, but that was a

LATEST NEWS

SEATTLE -- Bryan Woo, the Mariners’ electric right-hander in the midst of one of the best starts to a season in team history, was scratched from his scheduled start on Tuesday due to a right forearm issue that necessitated an MRI. In his place, veteran left-hander Jhonathan Díaz was recalled

CINCINNATI -- Ask any pitcher in the Guardians’ clubhouse how they would pitch to Steven Kwan and you’ll get the same answer: I wouldn’t. Why? Well, Kwan proved it with his ninth three-plus-hit game of the season in the Guardians’ 5-3 victory over the Reds at Great American Ball Park

BOSTON -- The National League-leading Phillies expect to be without J.T. Realmuto for approximately a month.
