    Guardians' Travis Bazzana: Makes splash in Double-A

    Bazzana went 4-for-5 with a double, a home run, two RBI and four runs scored for Double-A Akron on Saturday.

    Bazzana has made a great first impression at the Double-A level, going 6-for-8 with two walks, two extra-base hits, two steals, three RBI and five runs scored through his first two games for the RubberDucks. The first overall in the 2024 draft, Bazzana immediately showed off his 70-grade hit tool and could breeze through the system on his way toward the starting job at second base for the Guardians later this season.

  • Luis Rengifo 3B | LAA

    Angels' Luis Rengifo: Homers in Saturday's win

    Rengifo went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run and a walk against the Guardians in Saturday's 10-4 victory.

    Rengifo exited Friday's game early due to left hamstring tightness, but he was back starting at third base Saturday. The hamstring issue didn't seem to affect his swing, as the utility man knocked a solo homer on the third pitch of his first at-bat. Rengifo did give way defensively to Nicky Lopez in the eighth inning, but the Angels were ahead 10-3 at the time, and Rengifo appeared to emerge from the contest without a setback.

  • Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Four-game hitting streak

    Rodgers went 1-for-3 with a double and a walk Saturday against the Twins.

    Rodgers started his fourth consecutive game at second base and has gradually picked up his performance. He has at least one hit in each of those four contests and has doubles in consecutive games. Rodgers appears to have a clear grip on a starting role, and his recent performance should help him maintain playing time.

  • Brandon Lowe 2B | PIT

    Rays' Brandon Lowe: Pops third homer

    Lowe went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday against the Rangers.

    Lowe popped his third home run of the season in the third inning and now has at least one hit in six of his eight starts. He's hit primarily second in the Rays' order, helping him record at least one RBI in four of his last six contests.

  • Marcus Semien 2B | NYM

    Rangers' Marcus Semien: Smacks leadoff homer

    Semien went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Saturday against the Rays.

    Semien had a slow start to the season with zero extra-base hits across his first 32 plate appearances entering Saturday's game. He changed that promptly by popping a leadoff homer against Taj Bradley. However, he also struck out twice and now has a 25 percent strikeout rate for the campaign, well above his 14.6 percent clip for the last two seasons.

  • Jazz Chisholm CF | NYY

    Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Swipes two bags in win

    Chisholm went 1-for-4 with a run scored and two stolen bases in Saturday's 10-4 win over the Pirates.

    Chisholm stole both second and third base to earn his first two-steal performance of the season. The 27-year-old keeps filling the stat sheet, hitting .242 with four homers, eight RBI, seven runs scored and three steals over 37 plate appearances this season. He should continue to thrive hitting in the middle of a loaded Yankees lineup.

  • Luis Rengifo 3B | LAA

    Angels' Luis Rengifo: In Saturday's lineup

    Rengifo (hamstring) will start at third base and bat second Saturday against the Guardians, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

    Rengifo was forced to make an early exit from Friday's contest due to left hamstring soreness, but the injury won't end up causing him to miss any starts. The 28-year-old has struggled to find his swing thus far in 2025, going just 5-for-25 through the Angels' first seven games.

  • Max Muncy SS | ATH

    Athletics' Max Muncy: Out of Saturday's lineup

    Muncy isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies.

    Muncy will take a day to regroup Saturday after going 0-for-10 with four strikeouts since the start of April. Luis Urias will get the nod at second base instead and bat eighth.

  • Gleyber Torres 2B | DET

    Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Taking swings

    Torres (oblique) began hitting off a tee in the batting cages Saturday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

    Torres said afterward that his oblique is beginning to feel much better, though there is still no timeline in place for his return. He's eligible to return from the injured list Tuesday but will likely require more than a minimum-length stay.

  • Luis Rengifo 3B | LAA

    Angels' Luis Rengifo: Exits with hamstring tightness

    Rengifo was removed from Friday's game against the Guardians due to left hamstring tightness, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

    Rengifo went 1-for-2 with a double before being replaced on defense when the Angels took the field in the fourth inning. He can be considered day-to-day for the time being, though it's worth noting that the 28-year-old dealt with issues in the same hamstring during spring training.
