Rice Baseball 2025: MLB Owls Update – All Star Break

July 16, 2025 By Matthew Bartlett

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 finished with three hits across his last two games before the break, entering the All Star break on a high note after a phenomenal start to his 2025 season. Myers is fifth on the Marlins in batting average, and second in stolen bases despite appearing in only 66 games, ninth most on the team.

Through the break, Myers is hitting .282 with 12 extra-base hits, 13 walks and 47 strikeouts. His OPS is .711 and he’s collected 23 RBI and stolen 14 bases.

Tristan Gray – Chicago White Sox

Myers was the only other Rice Baseball alum active on a major league roster in the first half, briefly getting the call to The Show for one day without appearing in a game before heading back to join the AAA affiliate. Gray has appeared in 17 MLB games across the past two seasons with the Rays and the Marlins.

Injured List

Anthony Rendon – Los Angeles Angels

Rendon has been out of the news since it was reported he would miss a significant amount of time following hip surgery this spring. There have been no updates from the Angels or his camp since then.

Matt Canterino – Twins AAA

Canterino underwent season-ending surgery this spring and was released by the Twins before subsequently signing back with the club on a minor league contract while he undergoes rehab.

Rice Baseball 2025: MLB Owls Update – July 9

July 10, 2025 By Matthew Bartlett

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

It was a rather modest week for Dane Myers, who has kept up his impressive start to the season, both with his bat and in the field. He was held to three hits over the last six games with two RBI. An All-Star candidate, Myers did not earn a spot in the midsummer classic.

Through July 9, Myers is hitting .283 with 12 extra-base hits, 13 walks and 46 strikeouts. His OPS is .721 and he’s collected 22 RBI.

Tristan Gray – Chicago White Sox

Myers was briefly joined at the Major League level by another former Rice baseball slugger, Tristan Gray, who the White Sox called up on July 7 as a part of roster juggling that saw him with the team for just a day. Gray was promptly reverted to the AAA affiliate on July 8.

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.

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.

BOLD move by Dane Myers to steal third base with the game on the line. Insane body control to stay connected to the bag.

Rice Baseball 2025: MLB Owls Update – Jun 25

June 25, 2025 By Matthew Bartlett

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.

Have you ever seen this before?

Dane Myers brings what would've been a Marcell Ozuna home run back in play, but does not secure the catch.

Unbelievable effort from Dane, yet again. Wow. pic.twitter.com/CkutDIO4Uv

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.

Rice Baseball 2025: MLB Owls Update – Jun 18

June 18, 2025 By Matthew Bartlett

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

Game after game, Myers’ incredible season just keeps getting better and better. He’s moved well past a strong month and good fortune and has become a force for the Marlins on both sides of the ball. For one, he’s one of the most consistent hitters in the sport right now:

And if that wasn’t enough, he’s playing Gold Glove caliber defense in center field too:

— Ricardo Urrusuno (@RickScores) June 18, 2025

What began as a feel-good story is a deserving case for an All Star bid. A gentle reminder, you can vote for him up to five times a day using this link. Fun fact: Juan Soto has a .861 OPS. Myers’ is at .862.

Through June 18, Myers is hitting .333 with 11 extra-base hits, eight walks and 32 strikeouts. His OPS is .862 and he’s collected 18 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.
