Merrill`s contract with the Padres and standout performances by Devers, Leiter, and Gallen highlight MLB`s thrilling week.

Jackson Merrill`s impressive extension with the San Diego Padres has made headlines, as the star center fielder secured a 9-year, $135 million deal. This contract not only buys out five of his free agent years but also includes a potential sixth year based on his performance in MVP voting.

In recent action, the Texas Rangers edged out the Cincinnati Reds with a narrow 1-0 victory, marking Jack Leiter`s first MLB win. Hunter Greene showcased his remarkable speed, throwing over 100 mph on 32 pitches during the game.

Rafael Devers of the Boston Red Sox broke his 0-for-21 slump with a crucial RBI double against the Orioles, finally getting on the board for the 2025 season. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Dodgers continue their undefeated streak, sitting atop the MLB Power Rankings at 8-0.

Easton Lucas made a stellar debut for the Toronto Blue Jays, pitching five scoreless innings to help complete a sweep over the Nationals. Zac Gallen of the Arizona Diamondbacks matched his career high with 13 strikeouts in a dominant performance against the Yankees. For more updates, visit MLB and Baseball News.
