Nick Kurtz was extremely close to having the first five-homer game in MLB history.
NICK KURTZ, OH MY GOODNESS. 🤯 First rookie in MLB history with four homers in a single game! (Via: @Athletics)
Players with 6+ H and 4+ HR in a game in MLB history: — Nick Kurtz in 2025 — Shawn Green in 2002 Kurtz is a rookie.
Never in baseball's 150-year history has a player finished a game with at least six hits, six runs and eight RBIs until Nick Kurtz tonight. His 19 total bases tie Shawn Green's single-game record -- and Kurtz had one more RBI. There's a genuine argument it is the best game ever.
Why The Best Hitters In MLB Whiff A LOT I wanna circle back to this and talk about why the best hitters in baseball are usually NOT good at making contact and post well above average whiff rates. Lets use Nick Kurtz as an example🧵 1/12
154 wRC+ with 28 grade contact skills. Moving the bat fast is good.
The #Rockies are acquiring LHP Griffin Herring and RHP Josh Grosz from the #Yankees for third baseman Ryan McMahon, per atFeinsand. Scouting reports and more on the pitching prospects: Herring (NYY No. 8): atmlb.com/40YpbZl Grosz (NYY No. 21): atmlb.com/3U0CdS5
Good start to trade deadline season for Mets. Expecting more relievers
The Mets have traded for Gregory Soto, pending medicals, league sources say.
A.J. Hinch on the #Tigers' offense after 10 losses in 11 games:
Emmanuel Clase for Max Clark? No chance. Eugenio Suárez for anybody? Don't count on it. #Tigers expected to take conservative approach at 2025 trade deadline freep.com/story/sports/m…
The great Lefty Grove warms up back in the day! #MLB #Baseball #History
Eugenio Suárez is the crown jewel of this trade market, but sources say Arizona -- which is in sell mode -- is asking for "a ton" for the slugger, and if that price isn't met, the Diamondbacks might hold him and try to re-sign him in the offseason.

Time to Press the Panic Button? #Tigers podcast x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
Yanks have talked to Pirates about Oneil Cruz (and some others). Price is said “steep,” but that’s no surprise. @_NoahHiles on it
Kind of a perfect example right there. Until a month ago Riley runs that out and is on second base. Instead, now he's pressing and pissed at himself and didn't run it out.
Left-hander Brandyn Garcia and right-hander Ashton Izzi are headed back to the Arizona Diamondbacks from the Seattle Mariners for first baseman Josh Naylor, sources tell ESPN. That's the full trade. And so begins deadline season. Buckle up.
The Mariners are acquiring Josh Naylor from the Diamondbacks, per source. Trade Deadline week is officially underway! @Ken_Rosenthal was on it.
Annndd a pair of brutal hangers get crushed and we're screwed again.
