Pittsburgh hosted Roberto Clemente Day as the Cubs named Kyle Tucker the Roberto Clemente Award nominee, highlighting Tucker’s Kyle Tucker Foundation and hospice-care advocacy. Tucker’s left-calf strain keeps him out with an uncertain return. Seiya Suzuki’s bronchitis is improving, Soroka was activated, Palencia progressed on his shoulder rehab, and Miguel Amaya begins a Triple-A rehab stint. Hoerner and Crow-Armstrong deliver late-season moments as Chicago eyes a playoff path.

Toronto promoted Trey Yesavage to the majors and designated Ryan Borucki for assignment. Yesavage, 22, is the Blue Jays’ top prospect, posting a 5-1 mark with a 3.12 ERA across four minor-league levels and 22 starts. He’ll draw the series opener at Tampa Bay, a significant test for a pitcher with enormous fantasy upside but limited big-league track record. Borucki appeared in four relief outings after being signed post-Pirates release, clearing the way for Yesavage’s audition.

Toronto carries a four-game AL East lead over the Yankees, adding urgency to the promotion. The move signals a sharpening of Toronto’s rotation depth as Yesavage climbs to the majors, while Borucki’s DFA creates bullpen and roster questions. For fantasy managers, Yesavage’s debut is a high-upside pivot with risk, tempered by the Jays’ immediate playoff push.
