Milwaukee Brewers catcher William Contreras broke his finger, but is just going to play through it.
- San Diego Padres outfielder Jackson Merrill highlights the list of players returning from the IL this week.
- A handful of prospects earned their MLB debuts this week, while Texas Rangers outfielder Evan Carter returned to the big leagues after starting the season in AAA.
- The Texas Rangers have made a change at their hitting coach while the Colorado Rockies and Pittsburgh Pirates are moving on from their managers.
Plate discipline and decision-making take center stage as both Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Oneil Cruz and Chicago White Sox Luis Robert Jr. have showed marked improvement at the plate, maintaining their incredibly high ceilings while bringing up their floors – and their rankings. Get Torked, nerds! Detroit Tigers first baseman Spencer Torkelsonalong with position rivals Tyler Soderstrom and Ben Rice rise in the ranks as they display that even their cold streaks are palatable. How good can Maikel Garcia be? And if Scott says Michael Busch is falling, that should probably be a red flag.
