Fenway spectacle turns dramatic as Dane Myers’ leaping grab briefly etches a highlight, only to melt into a two‑run homer that shores up Boston’s lead before Miami rallies. Myers redeems himself with a ninth‑inning solo shot off Greg Weissert to knot the game, then Jakob Marsee’s two‑run blast off Steven Matz torpedoes the Red Sox in a 5‑3 Marlins win that snaps Boston’s weekend sweep bid.

Miami’s Janson Junk and Garrett Crochet delivered a masterclass in a near‑pitchers’ duel, each spinning seven innings and allowing just one run apiece before the late miscues. Aroldis Chapman’s Saturday closer duties linger as a Sunday absence looms, complicating bullpen plans for Boston. Abreu’s calf tightness adds to the drama, leaving the Red Sox to navigate rest of season health concerns while still clinging to a marginal AL East edge.

The Sox’ offense stalled for much of the day, grinding out a few homers and the crucial insurance run from Abreu’s replacement, while the Marlins kept pressure on with timely hits in scoring positions. Boston’s late framing crumbles, giving Miami life and the series win as the season’s tight divisional race continues, with Boston five games back in the division after Toronto’s Sunday loss.

Fantasy angles spike here: Myers’ power outbreak and Marsee’s late‑game impact highlight the Marlins’ depth in outfield and the potential for surprise power off the bench, especially if Abreu misses time. For Boston, the bullpen shuffle and Chappy’s availability loom large in DFS lineups and weekly forecasts, while Matz’s success against a power‑heavy lineup raises questions about how to attack Miami in future interleague encounters.

Colson Montgomery’s major-league debut has been a splashy reminder that predicting a player’s arc is a sequence of guesses, not guarantees. In 32 games, the 23-year-old shortstop has carved out a .241/.311/.565 line with 10 homers and 139 OPS+, flashing big-power impact in a small sample. He carries swing-and-miss and chase tendencies at 33% each, a spread that places him in elite company and raises questions about long-term viability. The piece notes you can’t lock every prospect into one trajectory, no matter how deep the scouting well, and this breakout is a personal victory for Montgomery and a nudge for evaluators who overcorrect with prospect lists.

Beyond Montgomery, four rookies have surprised: Isaac Collins (Brewers) at .297/.395/.458 with eight homers and 13 steals in a 141 OPS+ season; Noah Cameron (Royals) delivering the most productive rookie pitching season with a 162 ERA+ and a 2.92 K/BB across 93 innings and a varied five-pitch mix; Jacob López (Athletics) sporting a 3.59 ERA (116 ERA+) in 18 outings with a potential scoreless-inning run; and Liam Hicks (Marlins) at .260/.354/.363 (100 OPS+) over 82 games, flashing extreme contact and plate discipline but puzzling defensive fit. Together, they sketch a volatile, upside-heavy rookie cohort that fantasy managers should monitor closely as the season matures.

Atlanta smashed Miami 7-1 behind three home runs from Olson, Ozuna and Harris II, while Joey Wentz rode a strong five-plus innings to his first win since joining the Braves. Jen Pawol drew praise as the first female regular-season umpire in a major league game in the series’ backdrop, and Atlanta’s lineup kept rolling after sweeping Saturday’s twin bill.

Jurickson Profar’s two hits helped push the Braves in the fifth, giving them a 2-1 lead that they never relinquished as Cal Quantrill exited early for Miami. Ozuna’s three-run shot and Harris II’s solo homer in the seventh padded the margin, while Quantrill went four innings with one run allowed. The Braves closed the series strong, heading to Monday off before facing the Mets with Strider on the hill against Holmes.

Fantasy takeaway: Atlanta’s power trio carried the night, Wentz stabilized the rotation with 5 1/3 solid frames, and Profar supplied a timely spark. Olson, Ozuna and Harris II are hot—and with Wentz steady and the Braves in a favorable schedule, rostering Braves bats and Wentz remains appealing for the short term. Miami’s lineup sputtered and will need Cease-fire relief from Quantrill in future starts to slow Atlanta’s momentum.

Jen Pawol’s historic MLB uplifts drew headlines as Marlins and Braves clashed, but a jaw-dropping left-field rob by Jurickson Profar stole the show in the fourth. Profar timed his leap at the wall, pulling Ramírez’s drive back for an apparent homer, preserving a 3-0 Braves edge and stirring the Braves’ faithful. Ramírez looked headed for a long ball in the homer-friendly park, but Profar’s athleticism flipped the momentum.

The Marlins threatened again later, with Xavier Edwards delivering an RBI single in the sixth and Liam Hicks sprinkling a baserunner, while Hurston Waldrep worked into the seventh before permitting a run. Ramírez’s 18th homer remained out of reach thanks to Profar’s wall-climb, a moment that also underscored ongoing conversations about Profar’s defense in left field (negative Defensive Runs Saved and Outs Above Average this season) despite his career versatility. Braves fans and fantasy players will remember the juxtaposition: a breathtaking defensive sequence amid a game that spotlighted a rookie’s rising command and a veteran’s defensive highlight in a nationally watched moment.
