St. Paul – Gabriel Gonzalez’s time in Major League Baseball has been brief. Still, he took a lot away from his weekend with the Minnesota Twins when they swept the Boston Red Sox in mid-May. Gabriel Gonzalez only got one start against Red Sox lefty Payton Toole, and went 1-for-2 with two walks and a run scored.
After being swept by the Blue Jays in three games at Fenway Park, the Red Sox flew to Seattle where left-hander Ranger Suarez took a no-hitter into the seventh inning.
In front of a sell-out crowd of 45,775 on fireworks night on a day the stands were packed with Red Sox and World Cup fans alike, the Mariners fizzled out, dropping the opening game against Boston in dismal fashion. By the ninth inning, a loud “let’s go Red Sox” chant had erupted, with the only […]
New York Yankees starter Cam Schlittler put together a masterclass on Friday night, blanking the Cincinnati Reds in a 5-0 win at Yankee Stadium. The 25-year-old right-hander struck out a career-high 13 batters across six scoreless innings, allowing four hits and issuing no walks. He threw 96 pitches, including 66 strikes, and lowered his ERA […] The post Yankees’ Cam Schlittler sets new career high in dominant game vs. Reds appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Well, I guess I’ll eat crow for doubting this game, at least. Few highlights in this one: This team went 3-for-6 with RISP and only left two men on base with 10 hits! How about that! Ceddanne Rafaela is on one, I really wonder if his bat is finally catching up to his defensive abilities, […]

It was a game of ones, as one outstanding pitching performance and one inning’s worth of scoring helped the Yankees easily handle the Reds in a 5-0 win at home, their first shutout win this month. If you went out searching for a worst-case-scenario matchup for an offense against a specific starter, it’d be a […]
The Mariners – Red Sox kick off a series today with two dueling pitching strategies. The Red Sox, knowing how left-handed heavy the Mariners are, will be starting a trio of lefties, causing the Mariners to make a roster move to get more right-handed (read more in the “roster move” section). Meanwhile, the Mariners will […]
Is this team honestly worth staying up late for? I salute you if you’re watching this on the East Coast like this writer is too. NOTE: IFK was in the original lineup and was scratched with left forearm inflammation, so Marcelo shifts to SS and Monasterio comes in at 2B. ⚾️ First Pitch: 10:10pm ET […]
The New York offense finally came up for air in the series finale against the White Sox, and it’s hard to even be too upset about it given how it had handled the White Sox in the previous two games, scoring double-digit runs in both of them. Now, they’ll take on the last-place Reds that […]
The Red Sox were swept at Fenway Park again. This time by the only mildly hapless Toronto Blue Jays. A team that had to pick up a DFA’d pitcher who would, of course, provide innings of scoreless relief against Boston. 6-1, sure that was bad. 2-0? Seriously? 4-3 on a wind carried popup? Sigh. Now […]
The Cincinnati Reds have been without Elly De La Cruz all of June after placing him on the 10-day IL with a right hamstring injury. While the phenom shortstop has missed 15 games already this season, it appears a return is nearing in his latest update amid the club’s series against the New York Yankees.

Even with the returns of Cal Raleigh and J.P. Crawford, the Mariners continue to be beset by injuries. Julio Rodriguez was held out of Thursday’s game with a minor hamstring injury and Luke Raley missed the entire series against the Orioles thanks to the flu. Somehow, the only part of the team that hasn’t been […]

St. Paul – Marco Raya will be the first to tell you that the start to his season went poorly. Over his first nine outings in 2026, Raya allowed 14 runs on 15 hits and nine walks through 11 ⅓ innings. It all looked like a repeat of last season, when he had an even worse seven-game stretch as a starter.
It has been an awful season for the Boston Red Sox, and injuries have not helped. But manager Chad Tracy has provided an injury update on Trevor Story, and when he might return to the lineup, according to a report from MLB.com “Progressing pretty nicely, according to interim manager Chad Tracy.

The Seattle Mariners may be just 39-37 overall this season, but they still lead the lackluster American League West division. Seattle would still love to further improve its roster before the trade deadline.

Romy Gonzalez began a rehab assignment at Double-A on Tuesday. Prior to the season, I outlined the impact of Romy Gonzalez’s injury, combined with the Red Sox letting Rob Refsnyder go to Seattle. I worried that the lineup would struggle against left-handers without both of them. I should have also added that the lineup would […]
