Their season is finished in late July, which does not mean the Mets are playing out the string for nothing.

An uptick from Tyrone Taylor and continued strong work from Huascar Brazobán, both of which were on display Monday, might translate to stronger trade returns by Monday’s trade deadline, which helps. But there also are longer-term ramifications from how the club performs over the final two-plus months of the season.

And with all the caveats that are attached to the existence of the 2027 season, Monday was an encouraging night for next year’s Mets.

Francisco Lindor looked like a superstar shortstop still worth building around.

Marcus Semien provided a bit more hope he is not the dead weight he looked like for much of the campaign’s first three months.

Zac Thornton looked like he belongs alongside Nolan McLean, Christian Scott and probably Sean Manaea in next year’s rotation.

“It sucks the position that we’re in,” Lindor said after the 14-3 blowout of the Braves and before Tuesday’s game was postponed, “but we enjoyed today.”

There might not be a more important Mets player in August and September — provided, of course, that he remains a Mets player after Monday, which is likely but not guaranteed — than Lindor, who is owed $160 million over the final five years of his contract.

His age-32 season has been the worst of his career, consisting so far of injury, underperformance and injury, in that order. Is this a continuation of a natural downward slope for a fading star in his 30s, whose OPS has dropped each of the past three seasons? Or is this the kind of aberrational, injury-filled year that so many encounter?

Lindor’s final few months can begin to answer that question — and the Mets hope his past two weeks have been revealing, too. Lindor entered play July 12 hitting .208 with a .636 OPS. Eleven games, four homers, three doubles and a triple later, his average has bumped to .233 and his OPS to .743.

It is too late for such a streak to make a difference for a no-doubt seller, but Lindor has begun making a case that on the other side of hamate surgery and a calf strain, he still is an All-Star shortstop who can pair with Juan Soto to get the Mets back on track. If Lindor avoids the injuries that have sprung up too often recently and ages gracefully, the future of the Mets would be far brighter.

“He’s just one of the best players in baseball,” said interim manager Andy Green, “and it’s a matter of time before one of the best players in baseball gets hot.”

There was a time when Semien was one of the best players in baseball, three times finishing third in MVP voting and a World Series champion with the 2023 Rangers. That time is over.

Last year he posted the 10th-worst OPS (.669) among qualified hitters in the sport, which led to the fascinating, bad-contract exchange with Brandon Nimmo. This year his OPS has further tumbled (.629), entering play Tuesday as the sixth worst in the game.

The concern level should be high for a second baseman who is owed $46 million in 2027 and 2028, so any reason to believe would be welcome. Maybe a second-half rebound can convince the club that Semien had been compromised for much of the first half, when he battled a bothersome hip that grew in intensity until he hit the injured list June 25.

Fresh off the IL, the 35-year-old has begun to hit again, spiking his numbers over the past five games and breaking out Monday, when he reached base four times, homered and scored three runs.

The Mets need to see more, but it is a start.

“Everybody’s starting to get healthy,” said Semien, referencing Lindor, Luis Robert Jr. and a Juan Soto whom the Mets are waiting for. “It’s a good sign.”

Thornton’s emergence has been more obvious, a young lefty who is pitching as if he is replacing David Peterson — using stuff that does not look overwhelming to silence offenses, now with a 2.43 ERA in his first five starts.

The 2027 Mets still probably need a front-line starter who isn’t Freddy Peralta, but they might not need another back-end starter if Thornton (who turned in another quality start against Atlanta) continues to outpitch his stuff.

Such a development would be significant for obvious and subtler reasons, including the fact that there have not been enough development victories this season in the organization’s minor league pipeline.

McLean, Scott and Thornton composing three-fifths of their rotation next year would counter that narrative.

“It’s not the traditional way that star pitchers get people out right now,” Green said of a pitcher who lives in the low 90s and leads with a high-80s cutter, “but it’s real.”

The Dodgers’ need for a catcher at the trade deadline might be decreasing.

On Tuesday, manager Dave Roberts announced that All-Star backstop Will Smith has begun baseball activities again, saying the catcher is finally “pain-free” from a neck injury that has sidelined him since early June.

Smith will now begin a throwing and hitting program, in addition to increased work in the weight room.

The news came as an encouraging development for the Dodgers, who had been closely monitoring the 31-year-old’s progress while evaluating the need to potentially add another catcher before next Monday’s trade deadline.

“I’m excited to hear that he is starting some baseball activities,” Roberts said.

Last week, sources told the California Post that the Dodgers hadn’t ramped up their efforts to add another catcher amid Smith’s ongoing absence. The team wasn’t believed to be looking for a bigger name at the position, either, instead weighing the possibility of bolstering their catching depth behind second-year backup Dalton Rushing.

Still, any further setbacks or delays in Smith’s recovery might have altered their approach.

As Roberts noted over the weekend, it was going to be “helpful” to have more clarity on Smith’s status before deadline decisions had to be made.

Now, finally, a tangible update has arrived –– reinforcing the Dodgers’ optimism in having Smith back at full health for the stretch run of the season and the start of the playoffs.

Smith has not played since June 5, when he first developed what was initially described as minor stiffness in his neck. However, the pain continued to linger, leading to a doctor’s visit in which Smith was diagnosed with an inflamed disc in his neck. His previous attempts to ramp up activity were scuttled by recurring pain, ultimately prompting the team to shut him down for a week during the All-Star break.

Since then, though, Smith has seemingly turned a corner.

And while his timeline to return is unclear, the team’s confidence in eventually getting him back should only lessen their urgency to make a notable acquisition behind the plate in the coming days.

The Dodgers could still use more catching depth, with rookie Eliezer Alfonzo currently serving in a backup role behind Rushing –– who himself has had an up-and-down second season in the big leagues.

Last year, the club added Ben Rortvedt at the deadline, and wound up turning to him to start their first four playoff games while Smith recovered from a broken hand.

Someone like Rortvedt, who is now in triple-A with the Mets, could make sense as another deadline addition this year.

But ideally, the Dodgers won’t need any extra catching help come October, with Smith finally back on the road to recovery almost two months into his IL stint.

Snell, Glasnow progressing too

In other positive injury news on Tuesday, Roberts expressed confidence in the status of both Blake Snell and Tyler Glasnow, as they continue to take steps toward returning to the active roster.

On Wednesday, Snell is scheduled to throw four innings in a minor-league rehab game with single-A Ontario, while Glasnow will face hitters in a live batting practice session at Dodger Stadium for the second time in the last couple weeks.

Snell could be ready to rejoin the Dodgers after his outing, while Glasnow could be ready to begin his own minor-league rehab assignment after his.

Both pitchers have been out since early May, when Glasnow went down with back spasms and Snell underwent a procedure to remove loose bodies from his elbow.

“I feel very confident [about the state of our rotation],” Roberts said, even though Shohei Ohtani’s next steps as a pitcher remain undecided as he continues to nurse a knee injury. “I feel very good for the rest of the season with all three of these guys.”

The Brewers’ offense came crashing back to Earth in last night’s series opener against the San Francisco Giants, managing just three hits in a shutout loss. While it wasn’t an ideal start to the series, Milwaukee was ultimately able to bounce back from a similarly rough offensive performance against the Rockies last weekend, scoring 19 runs over the next two games.

On the mound for Milwaukee is Logan Henderson, who at this point has thrown enough innings to move beyond the “small sample size” caveat. Through eight starts, he owns a 3.05 ERA — which has nevertheless raised his career ERA to 2.54 — and his 0.94 WHIP is lower than it was last season. In his last outing, Henderson tossed five innings against the Mets, allowing two runs on five hits while striking out nine.

San Francisco will counter with Landen Roupp, who has quietly been one of the more consistent mid-rotation starters in baseball over the last three seasons. This year has been no different. Roupp enters tonight with a 3.93 ERA, almost identical to his career mark of 3.81, while his 1.24 WHIP and 2.5 strikeout-to-walk ratio are both career bests.

Before getting to today’s lineup, there’s been plenty of roster news.

— First, Brewer beat writer Adam McCalvy reported this morning that Jake Bauers suffered a broken toe after fouling a ball off his foot last night and is expected to miss some time. Later reports clarified that the injury is actually an “old fracture” he’s been playing through, meaning it’ll be a matter of pain management moving forward. He’s not in today’s lineup, but he also hasn’t been placed on the injured list.

— Sal Frelick and Kyle Harrison are both expected back next month. Harrison’s return is currently targeted for early August, while Frelick is expected back in early to mid-August. Frelick received a cortisone injection in his right shoulder last week, and Harrison is scheduled to make a 75-to-80-pitch rehab start with High-A Wisconsin on Thursday.

— Infielder Braden Shewmake cleared waivers, declined an outright assignment to Triple-A Nashville, and elected free agency.

Now, as for the lineup:

After going 0-for-4 with two strikeouts last night, Christian Yelich slides down to the cleanup spot. Brice Turang, who ranks second on the Brewers in on-base percentage behind Bauers, will lead off, followed by Jackson Chourio and William Contreras. Andrew Vaughn and Luis Lara, batting fifth and sixth while playing first base and right field, respectively, will both start with Bauers out. Rounding out the lineup are Garrett Mitchell, Cooper Pratt, and David Hamilton, who’s getting the start at third base.

Today’s game will be broadcast on Brewers.TV and the Brewers’ Radio Network, with first pitch set for 8:45 p.m.

TONIGHT’S GAME: The Houston Astros (53-55) and Los Angeles Angels (42-65) will play the 2nd game of this 3-game set at Angel Stadium tonight.

RHP Peter Lambert (8-5) will make the start for the Astros as he takes on Angels LHP Reid Detmers (3-7).

Rematch: Lambert and Detmers went toe-to-toe against each other on June 10 at LAA in what ended up as a pitcher’s duel. Lambert allowed 2 R in 6.1 IP while Detmers allowed 1 R in 7.0 IP in an eventual 3-2 Angels win in 10 innings.

THE LAMMA: RHP Peter Lambert has been one of the top starters in the Majors this season, entering tonight’s game with an 8-5 record and a 3.03 ERA in his 17 starts. He has allowed just 72 hits in his 98.0 IP for a .201 opp. avg.

On the Road: Lambert is 3-1 with a 2.78 ERA (10ER/32.1IP) in his 6 road starts with 35 K’s in 32.1 IP.

Since May 24, Lambert is 6-1 in 11 starts with a 2,73 ERA, ranking 2nd in the AL in wins in that span.

9TH-INNING ROAD COMEBACKS: Last night was the 1st time that the Astros won a game in the 9th inning on the road after trailing by 2 or more entering the 9th since a 7-6 win on Aug. 8, 2023 at BAL (trailed 6-3). Earlier this season on June 23, HOU defeated TOR, 9-7, in 11.0 innings after trailing 6-4 entering the 9th. Source: Elias.

WHAT A RELIEF: RHP Cristian Javier’s 5.0 IP in relief last night were a career high for him and the most by an Astros reliever since Sept. 28, 2025 when LHP Colton Gordon also hurled 5.0 IP at LAA.

SLOW BUT STEADY CLIMB: After a 20-31 start to the season, the Astros are 33-24 (.579) since May 22, which is the 2nd-best record in the AL in that span, just 1/2 game behind BOS.

The city of Sacramento recently announced it would be offering free e-bike and scooter safety classes, and it may be wise for the Triple-A baseball team, the Sacramento River Cats, to sign their mascot, Dinger, up for them. 

A video went viral on Tuesday of the mascot riding a scooter on the field in between innings and accidentally running into Oklahoma City Comets outfielder Alek Thomas as he was exiting the dugout during a game on Saturday. 

Saturday was Christmas in July Day at Sutter Health Park, which also serves as the temporary home of Major League Baseball’s Athletics, and Dinger was wearing a Santa hat and coat while riding on the scooter along the first base side of the field. 

As neared the dugout, Thomas, a prospect for the Dodgers, started to jog out to the outfield and the two collided, hitting one another square in the center mass and sending both to the ground. 

A stadium worker and someone from the Comets dugout could be seen running to check on them before the clip cuts off. 

Thomas did not appear to come out of the game at any point on Saturday following the collision, and he was in the lineup on Tuesday when the Comets faced the Las Vegas Aviators.

The video was first posted to Reddit before it was posted on X and Instagram, where it quickly went viral.

Have you ever gotten a Christmas present that was already broken when you opened the package? Well, this is the baseball equivalent of that.

Despite the Red Sox claiming they “dodged a bullet” last night after Curtis Mead was hit in the wrist by a pitch in just his second plate appearance in a Boston uniform, the actual diagnosis is much worse. Mead has a broken wrist and might need surgery.

The real signs of trouble started late this afternoon when Tommy Cassell noted Nick Sogard wasn’t in Worcester. That’s because he was flying to California to join the Red Sox and take Mead’s place on the roster.

Shortly after that, Alex Speier confirmed the disastrous news:

Everything about this sucks! The Sox lose the hitter they just acquired, possibly for the year. They no longer have Connelly Early to use in another deal that will now be needed to replace Mead’s production. Oh, and even if Mead returns this year, there’s a decent chance he doesn’t have nearly as much when he comes back. Why? Because wrist injuries suck! (Just ask Roman Anthony.)

Speaking Roman Anthony and the way the Red Sox have handled his injury, remember when he stayed in the game back in May, and then was initially listed as day-to-day with right wrist discomfort? Well, last night, Mead stayed in the game, and then was initially diagnosed with a right wrist contusion with negative x-rays. Given Anthony is still not swinging a bat three months later, I’m having nightmarish flashbacks!

Mikewichter over on Twitter also noted some other concerning factors with the Red Sox inability to diagnose the severity of the injury quickly:

So yeah, this totally sucks, and the Red Sox now have six days to do something about it before the deadline. Either way, the options aren’t great. Did I mention this sucks?

It’s been a weird week of travel for the Colorado Rockies. They had a Thursday off in the first week of the second half, played a three game set in The Good Land against the Brew Crew, and after having yesterday off it’s time for a bizarre two-game series against the San Diego Padres.

The Rockies are visiting the Swingin’ Friars in an awkward spot. The Rockies are right where they were expected to be: comfortably in the basement of the National League West but instrumentally improved compared to last season. the Padres, however, are under-performing against expectations. Sitting at .500 coming into this evening, San Diego would not be in the playoffs should the season suddenly end. They’re a full 14 games behind the Los Angeles Dodgers in the division.

Tonight’s pitching matchup is a battle of the Michaels. On the mound for the Rockies is Michael Lorenzen, who’s name has recently popped up in trade speculation. After a very disappointing start to the season, the right-handed journeyman pitcher has leveled out over the last few weeks. Lorenzen has gone at least five innings and given up two or fewer earned runs in six of his last eight starts. However, his last time out was a rough one. Against the high-powered bats of the Washington Nationals, Lorenzen lasted just 3.2 innings and gave up six earned runs on seven hits—two of which were home runs—despite striking out five batters. He has tallied at least five strikeouts in ten of his 22 starts this season.

On the bump for the Dads is right-handed veteran Michael King. Now in his third season with the Padres, King is enjoying a very successful season so far. His ERA sits at just 3.24 and he’s worth 3.1 wins above replacement per Baseball Reference over 21 starts with 103 strikeouts. In his last four starts, King has thrown three quality starts and has given up more than one earned run just once.

King has surprisingly little experience against the Rockies. He’s made four appearances—three of which were starts—and pitched 20 innings against them during his career. In those appearances he has a 5.40 ERA with 24 strikeouts and three home runs allowed.

His primary pitch combo is a low-90s sinker paired with a changeup that he uses to induce whiffs. King also throws a sweeper, a slider, and a four-seam fastball.

A day after dropping a close series opener to Boston, the A’s get another bite at the apple as they look for the win against the Red Sox here on a warm Tuesday night in Sacramento.

The club has left-hander Gage Jump set for the start, his third of the second half already. His first went quite well but his most recent outing was arguably his worst as a big leaguer as he got tagged for a career-high six earned runs against the Diamondbacks last Wednesday. He’ll look to turn things around and get back on track against a Red Sox lineup that has gotten on a roll in recent weeks.

Here’s the Athletics’ lineup this evening:

The lineup will welcome back first baseman Nick Kurtz after his scheduled off day yesterday. Much needed reinforcements for the squad. He slots into the second spot in the lineup sandwiched between leadoff man Jacob Wilson and Jonah Heim, who is DH’ing tonight. Tyler Soderstrom is batting cleanup and back in his customary left field after a half day yesterday.

Again, the bottom half of the lineup is full of rookies and A’s fans should get used to seeing that the rest of the way. Tommy White is at the hot corner again as he proves his metal in the field. Colby Thomas slides across the outfield to right taking Lawrence Butler’s place. Henry Bolte is in center field again as Mark Kotsay is letting the struggling rookie outfielder work through his struggles with consistent playing time. Alika Williams is Wilson’s double play partner at the keystone and the club welcomes back veteran catcher Brian Serven to the starting lineup.

Boston meanwhile has their own young lefty in Jake Bennett getting the ball for them tonight. A seemingly minor offseason pickup for the Red Sox, Bennett has been a gem for them as the rookie has a 2.58 ERA in his first 10 career starts. He did get touched up for three runs last time out so the hope is that the A’s bats can do some damage against the rookie.

And Boston’s starting nine:

Can we avoid a four-game losing streak? Let’s go A’s!

Dodgers utility man Kiké Hernández is back, activated off the injured list on Tuesday as expected before the start of a series against the Seattle Mariners at Dodger Stadium. Alex Freeland was the odd man out, optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Hernández’s season now includes two long stints on the injured list. He missed the first 53 games of the season after elbow surgery last November, and has missed the last 51 games with a left oblique strain. In between, he’s working on a perfect season, with four hits in his four at-bats thus far, including a home run and two doubles.

In seven games on a rehab assignment with Oklahoma City, Hernández hit .333/.320/.542 with two doubles and a home run. He split his time with three games each at third base and in left field, plus once at first base.

Freeland has played sparingly of late, with his last start coming on July 7. In the Dodgers’ 13 games since he’s only played in five of them, totaling five plate appearances, going 0-for-5 with four strikeouts.

On the season, Freeland hit .231/.309/.313 with a 76 wRC+, seven doubles, and three home runs in 72 games. The switch-hitter has performed better from the left side, hitting .249/.330/339 with an 89 wRC+, while collecting only four hits in 30 at-bats while batting right-handed.

Freeland started 59 games at second base, with four Defensive Runs Saved and three Outs Above Average, the latter in the 85th percentile in MLB.

Clay Holmes got back on the mound, this time with St. Lucie, on Tuesday evening in his second and potentially final rehab start.

The Mets right-hander got through four innings in relatively easy fashion.

Holmes' first inning started with a three-pitch strikeout, punching out Blaine Bullard (Blue Jays' No. 8 prospect) on a changeup before stranding a runner. His second inning saw more of the same, stranding a runner in a scoreless second inning, punctuating it with a strikeout of Owen Carapellotti on five pitches, getting the left-hander swinging on a changeup out of the zone. 

The Blue Jays got to Holmes a bit in the third inning. He allowed a leadoff single to Dean West, making his Jays debut, but erased him when he picked him off. Holmes allowed a two-out walk, but got the final out to get through three innings. 

In Holmes' final inning, the right-hander pitched a 1-2-3 inning on just nine pitches.

Holmes allowed just two hits and two walks in four innings while striking out three batters. He tossed 59 pitches (37 strikes), eight more than his first rehab start, that time with Syracuse, as Holmes tossed 2.1 innings on 51 pitches. 

If this is Holmes' final rehab start, his next appearance could be with the Mets this weekend. But with his name in trade rumors, the converted closer could be pitching for a different team by the time the Aug. 3 trade deadline arrives. 

Clay Holmes gets a strikeout and two ground balls to finish off his rehab outing for St. Lucie
