R. McIlroy - G

McIlroy reared his head down the stretch of the Open Championship, but ultimately ended up in a four-way tie for second place.

McIlroy was quiet for much of the day in the final round after some early bogeys, but then drained a lengthy eagle putt on the easy par-5 14th hole to put himself right back in the middle of the championship. The Northern Irishman parred in, which is a strong feat on these closing four holes, but he would end up needing two shots more if he wanted to catch Francesco Molinari. Believe it or not, this was the first runner-up finish in a major in McIlroy's illustrious career, although he has 12 total top-five finishes. It now has been 14 majors since his last win, but he has eight top-10's during that span. McIlroy will likely make his next start at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational in two weeks.

M. Leiter Jr. - RP

PHI

Leiter was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Sunday.

Leiter appeared in six games out of the bullpen during his latest big-league stint, allowing three runs while striking out three over 5.2 innings. Philadelphia will make a corresponding move ahead of Monday's series opener against the Dodgers.

O. Herrera - CF

PHI

Herrera went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Sunday against the Padres.

Herrera took Luis Perdomo deep in the fourth inning to record his 17th home run of the season. While he has already set a career-best home run total, he entered Sunday's action with only a .375 slugging percentage in the last 30 days. Despite that dip, he should still continue to rack up plenty of counting stats moving forward as he consistently bats third in the Phillies' lineup.

M. Trubisky - QB

CHI

Although he's made some impressive throws, Trubisky has also struggled with poor decision-making and poorly-placed passes during the Bears first practices of training camp, Rich Campbell of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Despite Trubisky's struggles, not only is he learning a new offense, but he's also playing with many receivers who are new to the team. In addition, he's started just 12 games at the NFL level and 25 total starts since high school, so as talented as he appears to be, performances like these should be expected given the circumstances. As long as Trubisky shows steady progress throughout camp, he'll continue to be worth a draft pick as a fantasy backup with upside.

Added 10:03 pm (EST)

N/A

A. Altherr - RF

PHI

Altherr was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley following Sunday's tilt against the Padres.

Altherr had struggled to a .172/.291/.306 batting line through 88 games this season prior to the move. The Phillies have yet to make a corresponding move, as they'll begin a three-game series against the Dodgers on Monday.

M. Bush - RP

TEX

Bush (elbow) said Sunday that he's at least two weeks away from starting a throwing program, T.R. Sullivan of MLB.com reports.

Bush has been pleased with how his strained right elbow has responded to stem-cell treatment, but he'll still require some additional rest before playing catch. Given where he's at in his recovery, Bush seems unlikely to return from the 60-day disabled list until at least mid-August.

F. Molinari - G

Molinari won the Open Championship at Carnoustie by two shots after he battled through extremely tough conditions on Sunday with a two-under 69.

Molinari double-bogeyed the 17th hole on Friday to drop himself well back of the lead heading into the weekend. From that point on he played eight-under golf and made zero bogeys on the most difficult course in the Open Championship rotation. The Italian looked unflappable on Sunday where the players were facing winds of 25+ miles per hour. While all the players around Molinari were making mistakes, his short game was so strong and he was able to knock in every short putt he looked at. Over the last two months, no player has been better than Molinari with now three wins and two runner-ups in his last six starts. He will likely make his next start at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational in two weeks.

N/A

D. Santana - LF

ATL

Santana will report to Triple-A Gwinnett after clearing waivers Sunday, Gabe Burns of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Santana was designated for assignment Thursday, and after drawing little interest while on the waiver wire, he'll head back to the minors. He struggled to a .179/.281/.286 slash line through 15 games with Atlanta.
