Guerrero went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer, two runs scored and two walks in Sunday's 10-9 win over the Yankees.

Guerrero set the tone for Sunday's offensive outburst with his two-run shot off of Luis Severino in the first inning. He would reach base three more times and score another run in the seventh. Over his last 10 games, Guerrero is 16-for-41 (.390) with four homers and five multi-hit performances. After a poor May (.681 OPS in 26 games), the 23-year-old has brought his slash line back to .267/.355/.510 through 279 plate appearances.

O'Hearn went 1-for-1 with an RBI double in Saturday's 2-0 win over the Athletics.

O'Hearn hit for Emmanuel Rivera and knocked in the game's first run in the seventh inning. While he's yet to start a game in June, O'Hearn has gone 2-for-5 in a pinch-hitting role. His last start was May 27, and it doesn't appear his path to playing time will get any easier as long as the Royals' preferred starting nine are healthy, as manager Mike Matheny doesn't utilize many platoons. O'Hearn is slashing .216/.268/.294 with a home run, seven RBI, four runs scored and a double in 56 plate appearances overall.

Cooper is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Even with Jesus Aguilar (illness) on the COVID-19-related injured list, the Marlins will extend Cooper a breather Sunday and have him put a four-game hitting streak on hold. Lewin Diaz will pick up a start at first base in Cooper's stead while Avisail Garcia gets a turn as the Marlins' designated hitter.

Tellez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

Platoon mate Keston Hiura will pick up a start at first base while the lefty-hitting Tellez takes a seat with the Reds bringing a lefty (Mike Minor) to the hill for the series finale. Tellez hasn't left the yard since May 20, but he's at least been productive at the plate over his last three starts, going 4-for-11 with a double, two walks, three runs and an RBI over that stretch.

Freeman went 3-for-5 with a double in Saturday's 7-1 victory versus Cleveland.

Freeman notched three or more hits for the ninth time this season, and he's tied for eighth in the National League with 20 multi-hit games on the campaign. The first baseman has been solid in his first season with the Dodgers, registering a .292/.376/.448 slash line. He's hit only five home runs, but Freeman is on pace to set a career high in doubles -- his 22 two-baggers are fifth-most in baseball and are only three fewer than he hit all of last season.

Cron went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Saturday against the Padres.

Cron took Nick Martinez yard in the first inning to record his 17th home run of the season and third in his last two games. In addition to the power production, Cron is hitting .317 across his last 10 starts, also driving in 10 and scoring seven runs. Overall, Cron has maintained a .380 wOBA and 131 wRC+ across 282 plate appearances on the season.

Abreu went 1-for-4 with a double, a walk and two RBI on Saturday against Houston.

Abreu capped off a four-run third inning for the White Sox by doubling down the left-field line to drive in a pair. He's currently hitting .328 in June, but more impressive has been Abreu's uptick in power, as he has a .250 ISO for the month. Overall, Abreu has a .267 average with 34 runs scored and 32 RBI across 270 plate appearances on the season.

Rizzo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Rizzo started the past 14 games and will receive a day off after posting a .992 OPS with six home runs and 16 RBI during that stretch. DJ LeMahieu will man first base while Gleyber Torres starts at the keystone.

Torkelson went 2-for-5 with a double and two runs scored in Saturday's win over the Rangers.

Both of Torkelson's runs came on Willi Castro hits, one in the fourth and one in the fifth. His two hits in Saturday's game give him just six in 15 June games. This has been a rough rookie year for Torkelson, who is batting .184 on the season and is slashing just .122/.173/.163 in June.

Flores went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in a 7-5 win over the Pirates on Saturday.

The veteran first baseman hit his eighth home run of the season off Jose Quintana to give his team the lead in the top of the first. Flores had been cold of late, with only one hit in his last 14 at-bats coming into the game. He is now slashing a pedestrian .243/.315/.411 on the season.
