Matchup of All-Stars, NL's top teams when Cubs, Brewers open series
July 28 - It seems only appropriate that a three-game series between the teams with the two best records in the National League begins on Monday with a stellar pitching matchup. The Chicago Cubs will send All-Star left-hander Matthew Boyd (11-3, 2.20 ERA) to face the host Milwaukee Brewers, who will send All-Star right-handed rookie Jacob Misiorowski (4-1, 2.45) to the mound. The teams are tied atop of the NL Central with identical 62-43 records. Chicago took two of three from the Chicago White Sox over the weekend, while Milwaukee avoided a three-game sweep with a 3-2 win over the visiting Miami Marlins on Sunday. The Cubs have won three of the teams' first five meetings this season, including two of three in Milwaukee in early May. Chicago left fielder Ian Happ is looking forward to this week's return trip. "It'll be a great atmosphere," Happ said. "We're going up there just trying to play our game and good baseball. And I think there'll be a lot of noise around it. But we're just gonna play another series in July." Boyd will take the mound after tossing seven scoreless innings in a 6-0 victory over the Kansas City Royals last Tuesday. The 34-year-old Boyd enters Monday's contest with a career-best run of 23 consecutive scoreless innings, which is the longest active streak in the majors. "Somehow he's just gotten better in this stretch, and he's just overwhelming hitters," Cubs manager Craig Counsell said. "It's just quality pitch after quality pitch. I think anytime you get in a streak like this, that's what you're doing. There's no let up. No matter what's going on, it's a quality pitch. It just keeps coming at you. Milwaukee first baseman Andrew Vaughn is a career 1-for-8 against Boyd, who is 1-1 with a 9.95 ERA in 12 2/3 innings over three career starts versus the Brewers. Chicago third baseman Matt Shaw enters the game on a tear after struggling in the weeks before the All-Star break. Shaw extended his hitting streak to a career-high nine games on Sunday and is batting .444 (12-for-27) with two doubles, four home runs and 10 RBIs during that span. The rookie will look to continue the hot streak against Misiorowski, who is making his seventh career start. Misiorowski, 23, struck out seven over 3 2/3 scoreless innings against the Seattle Mariners last Tuesday. He was pulled after 64 pitches, and manager Pat Murphy said the team is monitoring his workload. "Obviously, I want to go six or seven (innings)," Misiorowski said. "But they're looking deeper, season-wise. I'm always going to be competitive and want to get as deep as I can, but it is what it is." Misiorowski is making his first appearance against the Cubs. He has 40 strikeouts in his first six starts covering 29 1/3 innings. "He's just broken the shell, man," Murphy said. "He's just out of the egg, all arms and legs. He's still got gooey stuff coming off him. He's something special." While the Brewers' starting rotation is overflowing with talented options, the team's offense has also risen to the occasion. Center fielder Jackson Chourio, 21, extended his hitting streak to 20 games on Sunday, becoming the 13th major leaguer 21 years or younger since 1901 to have a 20-plus game hit streak. The franchise record is Paul Molitor's 39-game hitting streak in 1987. --Field Level Media

Ruben Amorim given unlikely boost to solve Man Utd issue after private transfer talks
Manchester United are considering signing a new goalkeeper before the end of the summer transfer window and their chances of getting one of the world's best have just increased Manchester United are weighing up a move for Gianluigi Donnarumma after Paris Saint-Germain agreed a £34.9million deal to sign a new goalkeeper. Donnarumma, 26, has seen his future plunged into uncertainty after failing to agree a new contract. The Italy international's current deal with PSG expires next summer and the European champions don't want to lose him for nothing. Luis Enrique's side will therefore listen to offers for Donnarumma after striking an agreement with Lille to sign Lucas Chevalier. PSG's move could spring United into action, with Ruben Amorim keen on a new goalkeeper of his own. The Red Devils are understood to be interested in Royal Antwerp's Senne Lammens, who'd provide competition for Andre Onana. Although Onana has no plans to leave Old Trafford, the Cameroonian's form has been an issue for Amorim. The United manager even took the 29-year-old out of the firing line towards the end of last season after a string of mistakes. But instead of signing an up-and-coming shot-stopper like Lammens, the vastly experienced Donnarumma could be an option after privately discussing a move to England with his Italy team-mates. French outlet L'Equipe report that as PSG prepare to welcome Chevalier, both United and rivals Manchester City have registered their interest in Donnarumma. Chelsea have also been linked with a move while Galatasaray are said to have gone a step further by making a formal approach. It'd be a surprise if City put their hat in the ring after they struck a £27m deal with Burnley to re-sign James Trafford. The topic of Donnarumma's future was bubbling under the surface as the ex-AC Milan wonderkid helped PSG finally get their hands on the Champions League in May. As recently as last month, Donnarumma confirmed that it was his priority to stay in Paris. "My priority is to stay at PSG, I don't think there will be any problems in the negotiations," Donnarumma told Sky Italia on June 9. "We're a great team." Should Manchester United bid for Gianluigi Donnarumma? Have your say in the comments section. Napoli have also been linked with Donnarumma but his agent, Enzo Raiola - cousin of the late super agent, Mino - dismissed the speculation by labelling it 'pure fantasy'. "I've an excellent relationship with Director Giovanni Manna at [Napoli], but we've never discussed Gigio," Raiola told Radio CRC via Calciomercato. "He feels good in Paris, we're at the European champion club, so we have no complaints. We are working on a renewal. I have never ruled out interest from the top Italian clubs, but there has never been a negotiation, let's see. "He is still young, I have to squeeze him for at least another 10 years. At the moment, however, it is very difficult to see Donnarumma in the Italian championship, I'm not just talking about numbers but also about the sporting project. "In Italy, beyond Inter who reached the Champions League final, there are Milan and Juventus who are struggling, they are in the process of reorganising: these factors are fundamental."

After beating Dodgers, Red Sox turn attention to Minnesota
July 28 - The Boston Red Sox will try to boost their playoff chances when they square off against the Minnesota Twins in the opener of a three-game series Monday night in Minneapolis. Boston is coming off back-to-back wins over the Los Angeles Dodgers during the weekend. The victories gave the Red Sox a 4-5 record during a grueling stretch after the All-Star break that included series against the Chicago Cubs, Philadelphia Phillies and the Dodgers. They enter Monday a half-game up on the Seattle Mariners and Texas Rangers for the second wild-card spot, and one back of the New York Yankees. Red Sox manager Alex Cora praised his players for how they handled the challenge. "The environment was great," Cora said after Sunday's home win over the Dodgers. "It was very similar to Philly -- in between pitches, very quiet, like everybody was expecting something big to happen. A big pitch, a big play, a big swing. That's what it's all about. "We've got a young team. We know that. For how big of a deal people were making Chicago and the Phillies and the Dodgers, it was a great learning experience for them regardless of the results," the manager continued. "Because of these nine games, they're going to be better. I don't think the stage is too big for them. But we made some mistakes. We didn't win too many games. We're going to keep learning." The next step in Boston's learning curve will take place against the Twins, who are reeling after dropping back-to-back home games to the Washington Nationals on Saturday and Sunday. The Twins are 3-6 since the All-Star break and are bracing themselves for the possibility that they will be sellers as Thursday's trade deadline approaches. Twins outfielder Harrison Bader, one of the players mentioned in trade rumors, said he and his teammates continue to give their best effort even if the results lag. Bader spoke after the Nationals beat the Twins 7-2 in the series finale. "We hit a lot of balls at some guys and it just didn't fall," Bader said. "It happens. I'm pleased with the process behind the scenes. Guys want it, and sometimes it just doesn't shake out the way you want." The Twins will try to find their groove at the plate against Red Sox rookie right-hander Richard Fitts (1-4, 4.86 ERA), who is set to make his 10th start of the season. The 25-year-old Auburn product will try to bounce back from a bumpy outing in which he allowed four runs on six hits in 3 1/3 innings in a loss to the host Phillies on Tuesday. Fitts pitched five scoreless innings in his only other appearance against the Twins. He gave up five hits, walked one and struck out three but earned a no-decision on Sept. 20, 2024. Twins right-hander Simeon Woods Richardson (5-4, 4.14) is set to make his 16th start. He lasted only three innings in his most recent start, a 10-7 win over the Dodgers in which he allowed three runs on two hits and five walks and did not receive a decision. This will be Woods Richardson's first career start against the Red Sox. Twins All-Star center fielder Byron Buxton is unlikely to play in the series opener after the team announced Sunday that he has cartilage irritation on the left side of his rib cage. The diagnosis represented good news for the team, which will not put him on the injured list for now. Bader, filling in for Buxton, went 2-for-3 with a double and one run scored. "To be day-to-day with what (Buxton) left the game with (Saturday), it's a good thing," Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said Sunday. "We'll measure him out, get him looked at by the trainers each day, get him a lot of treatment and, hopefully, he'll be back very soon." --Field Level Media
