Rice Baseball 2025: MLB Owls Update – July 2

By

The 2025 MLB season is underway and Rice baseball alums are making the most of their time in The Show. Here’s the latest from the MLB Owls.

Dane Myers – Miami Marlins

Another week, another thrilling play by Dane Myers, helping to encapsulate a truly remarkable season by the former Rice baseball great. This time, the big moment came on the basepaths, complementing another strong week in the field and with his bat.

Myers is on the All-Star Ballot. You can vote for him up to five times a day using this link.

Through July 2, Myers is hitting .298 with 12 extra-base hits, 12 walks and 41 strikeouts. His OPS is .770 and he’s collected 20 RBI.

Injured List

Anthony Rendon – Los Angeles Angels

Rendon is slated to miss a significant amount of time following him surgery this spring. The bad news is another bump in an injury-plagued stint with the Angels; Rendon missed a chunk of last season with an oblique strain.

Matt Canterino – Twins AAA

Canterino was thought to have a real chance to crack the big league roster at some point this season, converting himself to a reliver this offseason in hopes of limiting the stress on his arm and preserving his health. Unfortunately, he’s set to miss a third consecutive season, undergoing shoulder surgery in early March. The Twins since released him and signed him to a minor league contract while he rehabs.

The 2025 MLB season is underway and Rice baseball alums are making the most of their time in The Show. Here’s the latest from the MLB Owls.

Dane Myers – Miami Marlins

Myers had a brief scare when he was hit by a pitch this week and removed from a June 16 game against the Phillies, but returned to the lineup two days later and hasn’t seemed to miss a beat. He’s reached base successfully in every game since, maintaining an already superb .371 on-base percentage. Myers has managed that by playing superb defense like this play, where he did not secure the out, but did prevent a home run with an acrobatic leap at the wall.

Myers is on the All-Star Ballot. You can vote for him up to five times a day using this link.

Through June 25, Myers is hitting .320 with 12 extra-base hits, 10 walks and 36 strikeouts. His OPS is .827 and he’s collected 20 RBI.
