The New York Mets suffered a 4-3 loss to the Atlanta Braves at Citi Field on Thursday, extending their slump in dramatic fashion. Once the hottest team in the National League, the Mets have now dropped nine of their last 10 games—a skid that has erased their once-comfortable advantage in the standings.

Still, Milwaukee's status as the best team in MLB remains unchanged, much like the teams currently in a position for a playoff spot. The top six teams in both the American and National Leagues are the same from last week, but there's still some drama heading into the home stretch of the 2025 season.

The top prospect in baseball is one step closer to reaching Pittsburgh. Konnor Griffin \-\- the No. 1 prospect in the game, according to MLB Pipeline -- is being promoted to Double-A Altoona, sources tell MLB.

Among the usual top baseball teams this season, there is another, more unexpected name – that of the Milwaukee Brewers.

At Major League Baseball's 2025 All-Star Game, Steven Kwan wore a Cleveland Guardians hat while Byron Buxton and Brandon Lowe represented the Minnesota Twins and Tampa Bay Rays, respectively.

This Milwaukee club set a new benchmark — so far — for consecutive victories, surpassing the 1987 team that opened that season by winning its first 13 games.

Michael Harris II homered and doubled, Nacho Alvarez Jr. and Nick Allen each had three hits and the Atlanta Braves beat the Cleveland Guardians 10-1.

Jesus Sanchez robbed Gunnar Henderson of a grand slam and denied Samuel Basallo his first MLB homer in Astros’ 12-0 loss to Orioles.
