The Seattle Mariners have agreed to an eight-year, $95 million contract extension with top infield prospect Colt Emerson, marking the largest deal ever for a player with zero MLB service time. The pact, announced Tuesday, includes a club option for a ninth year and could exceed $130 million with escalators. It follows the Milwaukee Brewers' similar eight-year, $50.75 million extension with shortstop prospect Cooper Pratt on Monday.
The Milwaukee Brewers defeated the San Diego Padres 7-1 on Thursday afternoon at American Family Field. The win completed a 5-1 homestand and improved Milwaukee to 24-17 on the season.

Ben Brown has taken over a rotation spot for the Chicago Cubs and delivered in his first start. Luis Arraez has shown major defensive gains at second base for the San Francisco Giants. Trevor Megill has adjusted his approach to regain effectiveness for the Milwaukee Brewers.
Left-handed reliever Tyler Samaniego made his major league debut for the Boston Red Sox on Wednesday, striking out the side in the eighth inning of a 5-0 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers at Fenway Park. The 27-year-old was called up from Triple-A Worcester after Justin Slaten went on the injured list with a right oblique strain. Samaniego dedicated the moment to his late father, Richard Sr., who introduced him to baseball and passed away at age 65 at the end of the 2022 season.

The Milwaukee Brewers are close to signing infielder Cooper Pratt to an eight-year contract worth more than $50 million, including two club options. The 21-year-old prospect, who has played just three games at Triple-A this season, follows in the footsteps of Jackson Chourio's pre-debut deal. Reports emerged from USA Today's Bob Nightengale and The New York Post's Jon Heyman.
In Phoenix, Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Christian Yelich dismissed preseason projections that place his team third in the NL Central. Entering his 14th MLB season after a healthy offseason, Yelich emphasized focusing on performance over predictions. The Brewers aim to extend their division dominance despite roster changes and rival improvements.
