  • Andres Gimenez 2B | TOR

    Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Busy on basepaths Monday

    Gimenez went 0-for-2 with two walks, an RBI, two runs scored and two stolen bases in Monday's win over the Red Sox.

    The 26-year-old infielder has been flashing surprising power in the early going this season, but speed remains an important part of his skill set. Gimenez stole exactly 30 bags in each of the prior two seasons with the Guardians, and he's 3-for-4 on steal attempts through 11 games to begin his stint as a Blue Jay.

  • Gleyber Torres 2B | DET

    Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Could skip rehab assignment

    Torres (oblique) might not need a rehab assignment before being activated from the 10-day injured list, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

    Torres has been ramping up his hitting, and if he continues to progress on schedule, he might be ready for activation when first eligible Friday. The second baseman has been sidelined since late March with a left oblique strain that initially cropped up toward the end of spring training.

  • Coco Montes 2B | TB

    Rays' Coco Montes: Recalled from Triple-A

    The Rays recalled Montes from Triple-A Durham on Tuesday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Montes slashed .184/.244/.316during a cup of coffee with the Rockies in 2023 and was added to the Rays' 40-man roster in late March. He'll serve as a reserve infielder for Tampa Bay.

  • David Hamilton SS | BOS

    Red Sox's David Hamilton: Swipes bag in loss

    Hamilton started at second base and went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Monday's 6-2 loss to the Blue Jays.

    Hamilton filled in for Kristian Campbell, who received his first day off of the season after starting the first 10 games, including both ends of Sunday's doubleheader. The stolen base was the second of the season for Hamilton, who is 1-for-14 with five strikeouts through six games played.

  • Ryan Bliss SS | SEA

    Mariners' Ryan Bliss: Crushes first homer in win

    Bliss went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in Monday's 4-3 win over Houston.

    Bliss crushed a two-run homer to left field that traveled 387 feet, putting the Mariners on the board in the fifth inning with his first long ball of the year. The 25-year-old won Seattle's second base job during spring training, having now started 10 of the club's first 11 games at the keystone, but he's slashing just .200/.294/.300 with three RBI and two stolen bases across 30 at-bats and has minimal fantasy appeal while functioning in the lower part of the batting order.

  • Edouard Julien 2B | MIN

    Twins' Edouard Julien: Goes to bench Monday

    Julien is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.

    The left-handed-hitting Julien had started in each of the Twins' last five games -- all against right-handed pitchers -- but he went just 3-for-14 with one walk against four strikeouts during that span. Julien will head to the bench Monday even as the Royals send a right-hander (Michael Lorenzen) to the mound, opening up a starting spot in the infield for Jose Miranda.

  • Red Sox's Kristian Campbell: First day off Monday

    Campbell is absent from the lineup for Monday's contest against the Blue Jays.

    Campbell had started each of the Red Sox's first 10 games this season, including both legs of a doubleheader Sunday, so he will receive a well-earned day off Monday. David Hamilton is handling second base in the series opener versus Toronto.

  • Kyren Paris SS | LAA

    Angels' Kyren Paris: Goes deep, swipes bag

    Paris went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, two runs scored and a stolen base in Sunday's win over Cleveland.

    Paris singled, swiped second base and came around to score in the second inning. He later gave the Angels an insurance run with his solo shot in the eighth. Paris has gone 8-for-18 (.444) with two home runs and four steals through eight games to begin the season. Paris has played center field and second base in 2025 and should continue seeing consistent playing time as long as his bat stays effective.

  • Lenyn Sosa 2B | CHW

    White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Hitting bench Sunday

    Sosa is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

    Sosa will head to the bench after he started at second base in the first two games of the series. The 25-year-old has cobbled together a .200/.200/.360 slash line through 25 plate appearances on the season, and he could be at risk of losing playing time with Brooks Baldwin likely to see more reps in the infield with outfielder Mike Tauchman (hamstring) returning from the injured list Sunday.

  • Colt Keith 3B | DET

    Tigers' Colt Keith: Not starting Sunday

    Keith is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

    The 23-year-old began the season as Detroit's starting first baseman, but he was shifted to second base with Gleyber Torres (oblique) on the injured list. Keith has a .174/.441/.261 slash line through 34 plate appearances this season and is receiving his first day off this season.
