Morning Java - 07/25: Soto Heads for an MRI, Skubal's 11-K Clinic, Barger Done for the Season

Juan Soto is undergoing an MRI today with the Mets bracing for a possible IL stint, so hold off on locking him into lineups until the results land. Tarik Skubal was overpowering against Kansas City, striking out 11 through six innings on just 68 pitches. Toronto lost Addison Barger for the year to elbow surgery that will cost him time into 2027, while Houston's Spencer Arrighetti exited after a single inning with foot nerve irritation and an MRI pending. Josh Jung's rehab stalled at half-speed running, leaving Texas facing an IL decision by Saturday.
