He had a power barrage in the middle of April, slugging six homers through April 16. It remained an all-or-nothing approach, however, and Mervis slumped to a .175/.254/.383 batting line by the time the Marlins waived him at the end of May. Subsequent minor league contracts with the Diamondbacks and Nationals haven't gotten him back to the highest level.

The Cubs have reportedly signed former White Sox closer Liam Hendriks to a minor league deal. That news was first reported by Britt Ghiroli of The Athletic and subsequently confirmed by Patrick Mooney and Sahadev Sharma. The 37-year-old righty was a free agent after being granted his release from the Twins when he learned he would not make the team out of spring training.
Atlanta went ahead on an RBI single by Mike Yastrzemski against Colin Rea in the bottom of the 3rd. Chicago responded immediately when Alex Bregman homered against Grant Holmes to tie the game in the 4th. Holmes proceeded to walk the bases loaded, but the road squad got just a run-scoring ground out from Moisés Ballesteros and held a 2-1 lead.
