There’s been no indication that Neto will require a trip to the injured list, and he’s been able to come off the bench to pinch-hit in each of the previous two games, but the Angels are going to give him some extra time off to rest and recover with Monday’s off-day looming. It’ll be veteran Kevin Newman handling shortstop in his absence. The 24-year-old shortstop figures to be ready for Tuesday’s series opener against Atlanta at Truist Park.

Trout gets his first day off since June 1 after launching a solo homer during Saturday’s one-sided win over the Nationals. The 33-year-old future Hall of Famer hasn’t experienced any issues with his surgically-repaired knee since coming back from the injured list, but the Angels have strictly limited him to DH in an effort to preserve his long-term health.

Newman broke the game open with a three-run blast in the seventh inning to turn a 3-2 lead into a 6-2 cushion. The 31-year-old is playing while Zach Neto (shoulder) isn’t healthy enough to start, and even with the homer and another hit, he’s slashing .202/.212/.262 over 84 at-bats.

He also drew a walk. Trout smashed his 13th home of the season with a solo shot off Zach Brzykcy, and it tied the game at 2-2. The Angels would score the next six runs. It’s the fourth homer of the month for the future Hall of Famer, and he’s driven in 31 runs in 2025 over just 56 games. As long as Trout can stay healthy — a big ask at this point, to be sure — the numbers should be there.

After the Mariners scored a pair of runs in the top half of the 10th inning, Seager answered back with a 395-foot (106.2 mph EV) two-run blast off of Carlos Vargas that knotted things up at three runs apiece. That would wind up being his only hit in four at-bats on the afternoon, though he also worked a walk. The 31-year-old shortstop is now hitting .244/.342/.430 with 10 homers, 22 RBI and one stolen base through his first 52 games on the season.

Trevor Megill had recorded the first two outs in the ninth inning without issue as Arcia strolled to the dish representing the Rockies’ final hope while trailing by one run. After taking a knuckle curve for a strike to start the at-bat, Megill doubled up on the pitch and Arcia crushed a 386-foot solo shot to left center that tied the game at 2-2. That would be Arcia’s only hit in four at-bats on the day. For the season, the 30-year-old infielder is slashing just .196/.228/.299 with two homers and six RBI, so this will be a season highlight for him for sure.

Astros manager Joe Espada told reporters Peña is still dealing with some soreness in his ribs after being hit by a pitch during Friday’s showdown and the club doesn’t want to take any risks in advance of Monday’s off-day. It’ll be Mauricio Dubón continuing to fill in at shortstop in his absence. The positive news for fantasy managers is that X-rays came back negative for any fractures and the 27-year-old infielder isn’t facing a lengthy absence. There’s a chance he’s ready for Tuesday’s series opener against the Rockies at Coors Field’s high-octane offensive environment.
