Abreu and the White Sox won't play Cleveland on Wednesday after the game was postponed due to inclement weather in Northeast Ohio, Tom Withers of the Associated Press reports.

The two teams will make up Wednesday's game as part of a traditional doubleheader on Memorial Day. Abreu and the White Sox will have an off day Thursday before returning to action Friday with a three-game home series against the Rangers.

Dalbec went 2-for-3 with a triple and an RBI in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Blue Jays.

Dalbec's average climbed to .244 after a slow start, but a look at expected rates suggest the rise was bound to happen. The prodigious slugger, who has yet to homer in 2021, ranks near the top of the majors in expected batting average, expected slugging percentage and barrel percentage, per Statcast. The corner infielder is 9-for-24 (.375) with four doubles and one triple over the last eight games.

Bohm went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's 10-7 loss to the Giants.

Bohm's only hit of the night was a two-run blast to left to put the Phillies up 6-3. It was his second home run of the season and his fourth game with at least one RBI in the last five contests. The 24-year-old has started seeing the ball much better, as he hasn't struck out the past three games after registering a 3:18 BB:K through his first 14 contests.

Hoskins went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 10-7 loss to the Giants.

Hoskins was expecting to have the day off but was needed to fill in after Jean Segura exited with a strained right quadriceps running through first to end the third inning. The 28-year-old Hoskins made some noise late, as he sent a fastball into the seats in left center in the ninth for his third home run of the year. After having a scorching hot first week at the plate, Hoskins has cooled down a bunch with a .167/.222/.333 slash line and 3:16 BB:K over his last 11 games.

Flores went 1-for-1 with a three-run homer in Tuesday's 10-7 win over the Phillies.

Flores came on as a pinch hitter in the eighth and hit the second three-run blast of the inning to extend the Giants' lead to 10-6. It was the 29-year-old's first long ball of the season, as he's working to brush off his early struggles after coming into Tuesday night with just four hits in his first 29 at-bats. Flores has started on the bench in each of the last four games and appears to have lost a starting role for the time being until he can improve his swing at the plate.

Cron went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double and five RBI in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Astros.

Cron was responsible for almost all of the Rockies' runs in the contest, driving in a pair with a double in the sixth inning before blasting a three-run shot in the eighth. The home run was the first of the regular season for the slugger after he went deep five times during spring straining. Cron boosted his average to .208 with the two-hit performance.

Santana went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run and three RBI in a loss to the Rays on Tuesday.

The Royals were routed in the contest, but Santana made sure the team's offense wasn't to blame. The veteran plated a pair of runs with a double in the third inning and bashed a solo homer in the fifth. After a slow start to the campaign, Santana has been coming on strong with four straight two-hit games. Over that span, he has gone 8-for-15 with four extra-base hits and four RBI.

Bell went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Cardinals.

Bell finally opened up the scoring in the sixth when he took a first-pitch hanging curveball over the wall in right to give the Nationals a 1-0 lead. Despite hitting his first home run as a National, Bell has struggled mightily in his first week back since returning from the COVID-19 injured list. The 28-year-old is slashing just .143/.242/.321 and has only four hits while striking out at least once in all eight games so far.

Abreu went 3-for-4 with two home runs, three runs scored and three RBI during Tuesday's 8-5 win at Cleveland.

The 34-year-old hit an RBI single between a pair of solo homers to power Chicago's offense during Tuesday's victory. Abreu has a .221/.316/.426 slash line with four home runs, nine runs, 14 RBI and 25 strikeouts through 18 games this season.

Olson went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in a 7-0 win during the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Twins.

The first baseman supplied a little more power in the nightcap, going 1-for-3 with a double and a run scored. Olson has hit safely in six straight games, and he's now slashing .288/.377/.577 with four homers and 12 RBI through 15 contests.
