Zack Wheeler dominated in Arlington, fanning seven across a three-hit, seven-inning stage, as Philadelphia held off Texas 4-2 to sweep the series. Edmundo Sosa connected for a solo homer, Bryce Harper lined an RBI double, and Weston Wilson delivered the go-ahead RBI single in the sixth, backed by a stingy Phillies bullpen and a closing clinic from Jhoan Duran, who earned his 20th save since the blockbuster swap. The Rangers jumped out front on Joc Pederson’s first-inning two-run shot, but Philadelphia answered with a sustained late surge to reclaim the lead and seal it.

Philadelphia’s depth and late-inning urgency carried the day: Sosa’s homer tied the game in the fifth, Wilson’s single put the Phillies ahead, and Harper’s early RBI double kickstarted the comeback. Harrison Bader killed Texas’ momentum with a leaping, wall-snug robbed homer in the fifth, underscoring Philly’s sharp defense in addition to the pitching. Wheeler extended a season-long trend of six or more strikeouts for the 19th time, and the Phillies improved to 49-2 when leading after six innings and 57-2 after seven, the best marks in MLB. The club now heads to Cincinnati for a road trip opener with Taijuan Walker on the mound against Andrew Abbott, while Texas wraps up its homestand with Nathan Eovaldi opposing Ryne Nelson as the Diamondbacks visit.

The Texas Rangers are emerging as one of the healthiest teams in baseball, with a notably small six-man injured list. First baseman Jake Burger has been activated, returning to the lineup just in time for their matchup against the Philadelphia Phillies.

Chris Martin has recently thrown a bullpen session after dealing with a calf strain, indicating his return might be on the horizon. Evan Carter is making progress from back spasms, and he is expected back sooner than later, which could enhance the team's offensive depth. Tyler Mahle is resuming light throwing activities, while Josh Sborz is on a ramp-up plan following offseason surgery.

As we approach the final stretch of the MLB season, the landscape for fantasy baseball is ripe with opportunity, particularly for those willing to stash promising prospects. This week, notable promotions include Carson Whisenhunt from the San Francisco Giants and Troy Melton from the Detroit Tigers, signaling potential impacts on rosters as the trade deadline approaches.

Among the top prospects to consider stashing are Spencer Jones, who has been tearing it up in Triple-A, boasting a staggering .426 batting average and 10 home runs in 16 games. The New York Yankees may soon call him up, especially with Aaron Judge's recent injury situation. Also noteworthy is Kristian Campbell of the Boston Red Sox, who is on a hitting streak, making him a candidate for promotion to bolster a struggling infield. J.J. Wetherholt from the St. Louis Cardinals is another name to watch, showing solid potential should the Cardinals shuffle their roster after trades.

Rookie prospects are making waves in the minors, and JJ Wetherholt of the St. Louis Cardinals leads the pack with impressive stats and potential for fantasy impact. His recent performance indicates he could be a valuable addition to fantasy rosters in 2025. Meanwhile, Luke Keaschall is back from injury with the Minnesota Twins and showing promise. Jordan Lawlar of the Diamondbacks, despite an injury, has shown tremendous upside based on his minor league stats. Catcher Samuel Basallo of the Orioles is currently on fire, making him a must-watch. New York Yankees' Spencer Jones is showcasing elite power, while Bubba Chandler, the top pitching prospect from the Pirates, is another name to keep an eye on.

Amidst the discussions on these rising stars, Jesús Made is touted as the best overall fantasy prospect, driven by a combination of hitting, power, and speed. The Marlins’ Robby Snelling and Mariners’ Tyler Locklear are also highlighted as emerging talents in the league. Keep tabs on these prospects, as they could significantly impact fantasy lineups in the near future.
