Julien opened the sixth inning with an opposite-field 361-foot (98.1 mph EV) solo shot off of Casey Mize that increased the Twins’ advantage to 3-1. That would be his only hit in four at-bats on the afternoon. The 25-year-old is off to a solid start overall at the plate, slashing .282/.333/.436 with one homer and four RBI through his first 39 at-bats.

The Astros scratched out a run against Duran with a leadoff walk, a steal, a soft infield single and a sac fly. Even the walk was suspect, as both ball three and four could have been called strikes. Duran, who also gave up a run and took a loss Saturday, didn’t do much wrong in this one.

Bader greatly exceeded expectations offensively over the first two months of the season, but regression seems to have set in now; he’s hitting .171/.250/.314 with 16 strikeouts in 40 plate appearances during June. Assuming that Byron Buxton is fine, Bader is probably in line to do more sitting against righties until he heats back up.

Ohtani (elbow) threw 44 pitches over three innings of live batting practice on Tuesday and there had been rumblings that he could take the mound in live game action next week, but it’s fair to say that him starting against the Padres on Monday comes as a major surprise to everyone. The last time we saw Ohtani on a big league mound he registered a 3.14 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and a 167/55 K/BB ratio over 132 innings in 23 starts for the Angels during the 2023 season. All eyes will be on that game in Los Angeles on Monday evening. Expect that he’ll function in an opener role with Ben Casparius likely to work bulk innings behind him.

A huge stunner, but it seems clear that Red Sox-Devers relationship had soured since the move off third base. Of course, he won’t be a third baseman in San Francisco, either, though perhaps he’ll play the position some until Matt Chapman comes off the IL. Devers is owed about $30 million per year through 2033, so the Red Sox could only expect so much in return here. Harrison, at least, has gotten quite a bit more interesting with his velocity up, and they’re taking some salary back with the injured Hicks, who still remains interesting as a fifth starter or setup man.

Yelich had totaled two singles in 11 at-bats since returning Thursday from a bruised right wrist suffered on a HBP, but he hit the ball hard today, with his homer leaving the bat at 108.2 mph and his double checking in at 102.3. The double was just his sixth in 288 plate appearances this season.
