O'Hearn went 1-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored Sunday against the White Sox.

O'Hearn laced an RBI double to right field in the seventh inning, but the White Sox would take the series finale in what turned out to be a sluggish day at the dish for the Royals' offense. The 25-year-old first baseman finishes opening weekend 2-for-8 with three RBI over two games.

Abreu went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and two walks Sunday against Kansas City.

Abreu got the White Sox on the board in the fourth inning by clubbing a solo homer to left center. The 32-year-old first baseman is off to a strong start at the dish in 2019 and is now 4-for-11 with a pair of long balls and four RBI over three games.

Calhoun went 2-for-4 with a home run and a double in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Oakland.

It was Calhoun's first long ball of 2019 and his second multi-hit game already. He had just two extra-base hits at the end of April last season but now has four before April has even started. Calhoun could be getting back to his 2015-16 form which would be terrific for fantasy owners.

Santana went 4-for-4 with a double and three RBI in Sunday's loss to Minnesota.

The Twins were unable to get Santana out in the series finale, and he plated all three of his team's runs on the day in the eighth inning on a double to left field. The 32-year-old first baseman is off to a hot start at the dish through three games (5-for-10), although his team will search to get back on track starting Monday against the White Sox after dropping two of the first three contests of 2019.

Flores will start at second base and hit leadoff Sunday against the Dodgers.

Flores has never hit atop the order in his career but will get the chance Sunday. After riding the bench for two consecutive games, Flores will draw the start against right-hander Walker Buehler.

Cooper (calf) has been placed on the 10-day injured list, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.

Cooper was experiencing tightness in his calf and was out of Saturday's lineup. He did appear as a pinch hitter later that day, but apparently his recovery was not progressing as hoped. The 28-year-old drew two starts this season prior to the injury, going hitless in seven at-bats.

Cabrera went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, a two-run homer and a second run scored in an 8-6 win over the Cubs on Saturday.

After an 0-for-4 showing in his Rangers debut Thursday, Cabrera flashed his power by taking Yu Darvish deep in the second inning. The 33-year-old has slugged 60 homers over the last three seasons, and with regular at-bats in Globe Life Park ahead, Cabrera should have little trouble being productive once again.

Freeman went 4-for-5 with with two doubles and two RBI as the Braves fell to the Phillies on Saturday.

Freeman had four of the Braves' ten hits and is now batting .625 through three games.

Alonso went 3-for-4 with two doubles, two RBI, one run scored and one walk during Saturday's 11-8 win over the Nationals.

Alonso followed his one-hit debut Thursday with a couple of extra-base hits Saturday as the Mets scored seven runs across the eighth and ninth innings. The 24-year-old is off to a nice start as he is 4-for-8 in his first two big-league games.

Abreu went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer in Saturday's 8-6 loss to Kansas City.

The White Sox did little at the dish until Abreu's shot in the sixth inning breathed life into a listless offense. The homer was the first of the season for Abreu and the White Sox. The 32-year-old was an automatic 100 RBI during his first four seasons but finished with just 78 in 2018 due to injuries.
