After loss to Tigers, Twins make room for Royce Lewis' return by designating Jonah Bride
DETROIT — Following Tarik Skubal's dominance on Sunday night, the Twins designated backup infielder Jonah Bride for assignment, presumably to make room for Royce Lewis. A team source confirmed Bride was DFA'd by the Twins after a 3-0 loss to the Detroit Tigers, a contest controlled by Skubal. The American League's reigning Cy Young winner tied a career high with 13 strikeouts, and he and two relievers combined on a two-hit shutout. Advertisement Bride, who was acquired for cash in a trade from Miami on April 16, received hugs and handshakes from several coaches after manager Rocco Baldelli informed him of the decision. The move properly aligns with the return of Lewis, who should be activated before the Twins open a three-game series at the Miami Marlins on Tuesday night. Out since June 15 with a left hamstring strain, Lewis emerged healthy after appearing in a third consecutive rehab game for Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday afternoon. Lewis played third base Sunday after operating as the team's designated hitter in the first two games. He went 0-for-8 with a walk and two strikeouts on his assignment. Though he's struggled at the plate this season, the Twins could have used the potential right-handed thump from Lewis against Skubal, who retired the first 13 batters he faced before Ty France singled with one out in the fifth inning. The Twins were no match for Skubal, who struck out eight of the first nine batters he faced. THIRTEEN SHUTOUT FRAMES. TARIK. SKUBAL. — MLB (@MLB) June 30, 2025 'He's (one of the) best pitchers, if not the best pitchers, in the game right now,' catcher Ryan Jeffers said. 'You try and come up with a good plan to try and attack your at-bats, but he's really good and has the ability of doing whatever. He can throw all changeups, and you're on the fastball — you go up on the fastball for an at-bat, and he uses all changeup or you go up there, 'Hey, I'm going to try to be on the changeup,' and then he'll just throw 99 at you. He does a really good job of not letting you find a pattern or get on one pattern or one pitch.' Lewis, who's hitting .202/.282/.303 with two home runs and nine RBIs in 110 plate appearances, missed the Twins' first 35 games after straining the same left hamstring on March 16. Upon returning to the lineup on May 6, Lewis immediately struggled, going hitless in his first 15 at-bats. Though Lewis went nine for his next 30, he slumped again, this time going hitless in 32 at-bats, a streak which ended on June 4. Advertisement Right before his latest injury, Lewis finally found rhythm at the plate, going 11-for-28. He suffered the injury running down the line after hitting a single in a June 14 loss at Houston. Despite his struggles at the plate, the Twins are 18-12 with Lewis in the lineup. The Twins are 22-32 when Lewis doesn't play. Facing a slew of position player injuries in April, the Twins acquired Bride after the Marlins designated him for assignment. The Twins hoped they could help Bride rediscover the form that led him to hit .276/.357/.461 with 11 homers for Miami last season. After making a slight adjustment with the positioning of his hands, Bride began his Twins tenure by going 7-for-14. However, with Brooks Lee, Kody Clemens and Lewis receiving the bulk of the playing time, at-bats became more sporadic for Bride, who only had eight hits in his last 58 at-bats for the Twins. Bride gained far more notoriety for pitching in blowout losses. He worked in four games, allowing 10 earned runs and 14 hits in six innings.

Phillies Give Bryce Harper Update as He Nears Return
Phillies Give Bryce Harper Update as He Nears Return originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Philadelphia Phillies' offense has come into focus recently. Aside from a 13-run outburst on Friday, the Phillies' lineup has been rather sleepy, recording just four runs in the other five games they played since scoring seven against the Mets on June 22. However, this sluggishness could change sometime very soon. Advertisement Bryce Harper, who's absence from the batting order has been more than noticeable, faced live pitching at Truist Park on Saturday and participated in workouts before the game. Manager Rob Thomson had this to say on his progress: "He was great. Looked like he got his bat speed and his timing looked fine.' Sunday, which Thomson noted would be a rest day for Harper, offered a minor speed bump for his return. After checking in with Harper, Thomson said this: "Bryce is a little stiff today. And that's normal, just because he took so many swings the last couple days. It was a heavy workload." Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper (3).Dan Hamilton-Imagn Images Harper was expected to return as early as Monday. But can he still return for the opener against the Padres? According to Thomson, it is still possible. In any case, it won't be long. Advertisement Harper was hitting .258 with nine home runs in 213 at-bats before falling injured with right wrist inflammation on June 6, missing 22 games since. The Phillies' first baseman is no stranger to the injured list, to which he has been a frequent visitor over the past four years. But when he is healthy, Harper can be the offensive storm the Phillies need him to be. Last season, Harper finished with 30 home runs and a .285 batting average.

Giants takeaways: Ugly week ends with ugly series loss to White Sox
It was just one week ago that the San Francisco Giants had momentum. They'd taken two games and an All-Star from the Boston Red Sox, and they were getting national attention for the right reasons. The ballpark energy was back. Strangers on the street were talking to you about your Giants hat. Remember that? Everyone being excited about the local ballclub? Advertisement It was seven days ago, but it might as well have been seven years ago. The Giants were embarrassed by the Miami Marlins and Chicago White Sox last week, getting outpitched and outhit by two teams that might combine for 200 losses this year. At no point did it look like the Giants were the better team. At only a couple of points did it look particularly close. They made two of the worst teams in baseball look like World Series contenders, and soon they'll come home to face actual World Series contenders. There are bad weeks, and then there are existentially bad weeks. The Giants just had one of the latter. Other than that, everything seems fine. Here are some takeaways from an ugly weekend of baseball in Chicago. Remember that these valuable takeaways are for subscribers only. Gift subscriptions are available. The Giants scored 17 runs in their six games against the Marlins and White Sox, who sure give up a lot of runs to other teams. The Giants have had 14 at-bats with the bases loaded since June 15, and they've turned those 42 runners into four runs. Two of them scored on rally-killing double plays, one scored on a walk and one scored on a play where the back runner was thrown out at home. None of those bases-loaded situations ended with the offensive team feeling very good about itself, which seems hard to do. You can keep going with the not-so-fun facts. In Sunday's 5-2 loss, the Giants drew eight walks and scored just two runs, which is a combination that hadn't happened since 2019. It's been weeks since the Giants have had more than two hits with runners in scoring position in the same game. None of the factlets will be as descriptive as the simple, bleak truth: The Giants couldn't score runs against the Marlins and White Sox, who scored plenty of runs against them. Advertisement If there's good news, it's the kind of 'good news' that gets put in scare quotes. A lot of these problems have to do with the Giants' inability to hit with runners in scoring position (they were 8-for-44 last week), which tends to even out over time. The Giants were on a 110-win pace early in the season when they were great with RISP; they're the most frustrating team in the world now that they're incapable in those situations. The truth, as always, is probably somewhere in the middle. The Giants shouldn't always be this hopeless when it comes to scoring runs. Just some of the time. One thing to keep an eye on: keeps a stat called 'meatball swing percentage,' which is exactly what it sounds like, and only four teams are taking more pitches down the middle than the Giants. If you have unlimited time and a strong stomach, you can watch videos of all of them. Some of them are in hitter's counts. Some of them are with runners in scoring position. Some of them are with hitter's counts with runners in scoring position. It's painful, and it might hint at a passivity that needs to change. It's also not quite as permanent as it feels when the team is in the middle of it, most likely. But one of my main takeaways from the weekend is that, boy, the Giants stink at scoring runs right now. Gift subscriptions still available. The names in the Giants' bullpen might change somewhat, but the roles are going to be consistent. There will be high-leverage guys for late-and-close situations. There will be situational relievers to mix and match in the middle innings. There will be at least one backend guy who can absorb innings, even if he threw a lot of pitches a couple of days ago. Right now, Walker doesn't fit into any of those roles. He clearly isn't trustworthy enough to be a late-inning guy, and he's not stretched out for multi-inning appearances multiple times in the same week. He needs regular work to get right, but the Giants are playing so many close games that it's leaving only high-leverage situations for him. The results have been unfortunate. Put up a 4️⃣-spot for the lead ‼️ — Chicago White Sox (@whitesox) June 29, 2025 Walker is the worst of all worlds — a reliever who's too talented to give up on, but too erratic to trust. There isn't a bigger gulf between risk and reward on the team. Don't roll your eyes at the idea of Walker eventually contributing quality innings — he had one of the best relief seasons in franchise history last year, and there's a lot that's similiar between the pitches he threw last season and the ones he's throwing now. Other than, you know, the results. Still, if he were having this exact season for another team, he'd be a trade target for the Giants to fix. It doesn't feel like he's that far gone. Advertisement He's a haunted reliever, though, and he's constantly ending up in unexpectedly important spots, even as the Giants try to keep him away. He's like the bullpen's version of Mr. Bean, coming into hilariously sticky situations and somehow making everything even worse. It's almost charming when you think of it like that. Almost. Walker still has options remaining. As of last week, I wouldn't have thought the Giants would seriously consider using them, but then Tyler Fitzgerald was sent down. It was a harsh move to demote the Opening Day second baseman, but it wasn't a controversial one. The Giants sent him down primarily because the Giants still hoped he could help this season, not because they'd given up on him. Walker would appear to be on a similar path. There just aren't any great spots for him to get work on a team that's still very uncertain about its postseason chances. His inability to get one more out in the seventh inning of Sunday's game helped turn a half-respectable series win into a brutal series loss, and these outings will continue until morale improves. You can't make all of the takeaways depressing. It's bad for business. If you're more focused on the long-term success of the team, you can take comfort in Carson Seymour's wide-shouldered sinker, which sure looks like a quality major-league pitch. No idea if it's the kind of pitch that can keep him in the rotation for a decade, but it's a pitch to get excited about right now. It'll be interesting how it plays in short bursts out of the bullpen. Good day on the mound for JV 6.0 IP | 5 H | 1 R | 2 BB | 3 K — SFGiants (@SFGiants) June 29, 2025 If you're focused on the idea of this season, however, you can take comfort in Verlander's outing, which was one of his best in a Giants uniform. He held his velocity deep into Sunday's game, and he was allowed to face hitters for a third time. It feels like a good time to remember that there is still a ceiling the Giants can hope for from Verlander. His stuff is still good enough to impress some of the pitch-modeling metrics, and the dream of him pitching like this in October — against much better lineups — is still alive. Assuming the Giants aren't completely cooked. Which they might be. Unless they're just marinated and resting on the counter, getting closer to room temperature as the grill preheats. Either way, Verlander looked like a capable starting pitcher again, and that qualifies as the best Giants news of the weekend. Take it and don't look back.
