Here are three things that we will keep an eye on all day around the baseball world:
1. Dodgers roster move income?
The Dodgers had an injury fear yesterday when Star Catcher Will Smith Take a dirty ball from his throwing hand and left the game. MLB.com’s Sonja Chen Writes that X -rays on Smith’s hand came back negatively, but given the importance of it at all times of several catchers, it would not be a shock if Los Angeles would make a selection to increase their catch depth in the case that Smith is even daily. Leg rortvedt Seems the most likely choice to participate in the schedule of the Dodgers in the event that a third catcher is needed, but Chuckie Robinson And Chris Okey are also available at Triple-A. None of those players is on the schedule of 40 people, which means that they need their contract to be selected before being taken to the Majors.
2. Pitchers’ Duel in Pittsburgh:
Speaking of the Dodgers, they are in Pittsburgh for a series against the Pirates. Today’s game will contain a particularly exciting pitching matchup, because the Dodgers will send two-time Cy Young winner Blake Snell (2.41 ERA) To De Heuvel for his eighth start of the season opposite probably NL Cy Young Award winner Paul Sceneswho has an ERA of 2.05 over 28 Starts and has hit 28.6% of his opponents. While Snell has missed most of the 2025 campaign as a result of injury, the Lefty has a strike output of 31.7% with an ERA of 2.78 since the start of the 2022 season. The two Azen will be confronted in Pittsburgh tonight at 6.40 pm.
3. Series preview: Guardians @ rays
Despite the fact that both clubs go into the deadline season as sellers, the Guardians and Rays have succeeded in hanging around the periphery of the Al Wild Card Race in September. Cleveland is only three games back from the Mariners if they go to Tampa this weekend for a four-game set. The rays are even closer to only 2.5 games back. That makes this upcoming series one that could have huge implications for the prospects of both franchises. Things will start later today with Logan Allen (4.42 ERA) On the hill for Cleveland opposite Ryan Pepiot (3.70 ERA). On Friday, Guardians Righty Gavin Williams (3.26 ERA) Take on Rays Rookie Ian SeymourWho has an ERA of 2.97 in 33 1/3 innings. Tanner Bibe (4.77 ERA) and Shane Baz (4.98 ERA) will be confronted on Saturday, because they both try to end strongly in the midst of disappointing seasons. The series will be packed on Sunday with Guardians Rookie Parker Messick (2.08 ERA in three starts) Appeal Rays Righty Drew Rasmussen (2.74 ERA).
