MLB Confirmed Lineups

July 9, 2026 MLB Confirmed Lineups

The Almanac's Take

Three games are posted and all three lineups are incomplete — away sides are missing for the Tampa Bay game, and home sides are blank for Atlanta and Kansas City. The most interesting number on the board right now is Dominic Smith hitting sixth for the Braves with a .913 OPS; that's a lot of production buried deep in the order. Junior Caminero slots third for Tampa Bay at 26 home runs and a .909 OPS, flanked at the top by Yandy Díaz (.898 OPS, 13 HR leading off). The Royals' bottom of the order is oddly loaded — Luke Maile at ninth has a 1.400 OPS, with Tyler Tolbert right ahead of him at 1.087.
