Boston 5, San Diego 2

Sonny Gray: 6IP, 4H, 2R, 2ER, 0BB, 3K, 0HR, 4.50ERA
Quality start and the win. The 2 runs could have been unearned, the CF lost a ball in the sun.

Willson Contreras: 3AB, 1R, 1H, 1RBI, 1BB, 1K, .174BA
Willy finally started showing some life. His BB came on an ABS overturned strike to ball, he was so sure he was right he started jogging towards first base even before the overturn was announced. His HR in the bottom of the sixth picked up Sonny while he was still the pitcher of record by making the score 3-2 Boston, they showed Sonny clapping in the dugout.

I would put these posts in the Other Games thread instead of former Cardinals watch. This thread is mega enough just with player news.

OK.

Cubs just DFA'd old friend Dylan Carlson.

It's hard to believe he's only 27.

Tough news for DC. Was hoping change of scenery would actually work on him; always seemed like a good kid.

The Mets are planning to select the contract of veteran outfielder Tommy Pham, according to a report from Will Sammon of The Athletic. The veteran outfielder is on a minor league deal with the club, so he’ll need to be added to the 40-man roster before he officially joins the club. That shouldn’t be a major obstacle, as the Mets’ 40-man currently stands at 37 players and will move up to 38 upon the addition of Pham. That means only an active roster move will be necessary to make Pham’s addition to the roster official, which could happen as soon as tomorrow given that Sammon writes Pham is expected to meet the team in L.A. for their series against the Dodgers.

The 38-year-old veteran signed a non-roster pact with the Mets on Opening Day. He’s gotten into just four games at the Single-A level since then, but a combination of need at the big league level and Pham’s status as a veteran hitter appear to have combined to give the Mets confidence in bringing him to the majors with only minimal time to get game-ready. He’ll be joining a beleaguered outfield group that recently lost Juan Soto to the injured list due to a calf strain that figures to leave him sidelined for at least another week or two.
