8/7 5:18 PM Ramon Laureano (OF-SD) New-look Padres open three-game set against surging Red Sox. Newcomers have already made a significant impact for San Diego, and they'll aim to continue that trend as the Padres open a three-game home series against the Boston Red Sox. Ramon Laureano has hit like a sledgehammer in his first week with the Padres, while Freddy Fermin has given them more offense from the catching position than they've had most of the year. Mason Miller has made his presence felt on an already-deep San Diego bullpen, and Nestor Cortes gave them a decent start on Wednesday night.

8/7 5:10 PM Chris Paddack (P-DET) Biggest concern Tigers still have after 2025 MLB trade deadline. The Detroit Tigers might be sitting pretty atop the AL Central, but don't let the standings fool you — there's a glaring issue that could blow up their October dreams if left unaddressed: the bullpen. While President of Baseball Ops Scott Harris took a quantity-over-quality approach at the trade deadline, the club is still staring down a relief corps that ranks near the bottom of Major League Baseball in key metrics and is, quite frankly, holding this team back. On paper, the Tigers made a flurry of moves to shore up their pitching staff, bringing in Chris Paddack and Charlie Morton for rotation depth, as well as relievers Kyle Finnegan, Rafael Montero, Paul Sewald (currently injured), and Codi Heuer.

8/7 5:07 PM Zac Gallen (P-AZ) Zac Gallen aims to continue improvement as D-Backs host Rockies. Arizona right-hander Zac Gallen received welcome news hours before the July 31 trade deadline, when general manager Mike Hazen phoned to tell Gallen he was going nowhere. "I'm glad to be here," Gallen said. Gallen, in the midst of the least effective season of his career, is among them as he makes his second post-deadline start in the first game of a three-game series against the Colorado Rockies on Friday in Phoenix. Gallen (8-12, 5.48 ERA) is to face Colorado left-hander Austin Gomber (0-5, 6.18 ERA).

8/7 5:00 PM Vince Velasquez (P-CLE) Former Padres Pitcher Elects to Sign in Korea. Vince Velasquez's days in the Cleveland Guardians' organization are over. The former San Diego Padres pitcher, 33, is headed to the Korea Baseball Organization after Cleveland sold his contract to the Lotte Giants, who will send cash back in return. The move likely guarantees Velasquez a payday above what his minor-league deal with the Guardians would've offered.

The Chicago Cubs have been struggling a little bit as of late as they try to stay on track and keep pace in the division with the surging Milwaukee Brewers.

The opportunity to gain some ground back is there though, and the Cubs prepare to hit the road to face their most hated rival, the St. Louis Cardinals in a three-game set starting Friday night. The first game of the series -- which begins at 7:15 p.m. CST Friday -- pits Cubs All-Star left-hander Matthew Boyd against Cardinals rookie right-hander Michael McGreevy.
