Vaughn will remain in the minors and report to Triple-A Nashville. If he starts tearing it up there, perhaps the Brewers would consider making some room for him by playing Christian Yelich in the outfield, but they’ll cross that bridge when they come to it. Vaughn hit just .189/.218/.314 in 48 games for the White Sox before being demoted, though his exit velocity numbers were actually a little better than his career norms. He’d hit .211/.328/.351 in 15 games for Triple-A Charlotte. Given his current $5.85 million salary, he’ll need to experience a real breakthrough to avoid being non-tendered this winter.

Contreras doubled in a run in the fourth, and he was able to give the Brewers a 2-1 lead in the sixth with a sac fly. It’s been a disappointing season for Contreras even before you consider the lofty expectations, as he’s still slashing just .239/.346/.340. It’s reasonable — if not probable — that Contreras will pick things up over the second half of 2025.

Megill was handed a 3-1 lead in the ninth, so fortunately the run didn’t cause a blown save. It did cause his ERA to rise to 3.06, but fantasy managers will accept that number as long as the saves keep coming. He’s now up to 14 on the season, and two strikeouts during Friday’s effort raise his K/BB ratio to 26/12. That’s far from dominant, but effective enough.

Peralta was excellent again Friday, and that gives him 12 innings of one-run baseball over his last two starts. He scattered four hits, and issued just one walk while throwing 56-of-93 pitches for strikes. The 29-year-old now has an outstanding 2.60 ERA on the season, and it’s accompanied by a 84/32 K/BB ratio over his 83 innings. Peralta’s next matchup is scheduled for Thursday in Chicago against the Cubs.

Tellez got the Mariners on the board with a solo homer off Gavin Williams in the fourth inning. It’s the 11th roundtripper of the season for the veteran first baseman, and his double was just his fifth. Tellez certainly has the raw power to hit the ball over the fence, but it’s hard to trust him as a one-tool player playing in a home park that suppresses that tool.

Naylor tied the game at 1-1 with a solo blast in the second off Stephen Kolek. His second RBI of the game and 47th of the season with a sac fly in the fifth; also off Kolek. Naylor’s first season with the Diamondbacks has been a successful one as seen in nine homers along with a slash of .302/.356/.478.

Toglia is hitting .324/.366/.676 with three homers and 14 RBI in nine games since being sent down by the Rockies and seems to be well on his way to earning another opportunity. After all, as bad as Toglia was in hitting .190/.260/.342 in the majors this season, that’s still considerably better than what the Rockies have gotten from their other first basemen. They have a combined line of .167/.189/.283 in 74 plate appearances.
