  • Dylan Moore 2B | TEX

    Mariners' Dylan Moore: Out of Sunday's lineup

    Moore is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.

    Moore will sit for the third time in Seattle's past four games despite having a .778 OPS in nine contests since coming off the injured list May 6. Leo Rivas will cover the keystone and bat ninth in the series finale in San Diego.

  • Lenyn Sosa 2B | CHW

    White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: On bench again Sunday

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

    Sosa has an .889 OPS in his past eight games but finds himself on the bench Sunday for the second time in the White Sox's last three contests. Josh Rojas is manning the keystone while Miguel Vargas is at third base and Tim Elko starts at first.

  • Colt Keith 3B | DET

    Tigers' Colt Keith: Not starting Sunday

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

    Keith started the previous three games and went 4-for-9 with two doubles, a walk and three runs, but he'll still take a seat Sunday against Toronto righty Jose Berrios. Riley Greene will rest his legs as the designated hitter while Akil Baddoo receives a start in left field.

  • Willi Castro LF | COL

    Twins' Willi Castro: Sitting again Sunday

    Castro (knee) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at Milwaukee.

    It's the second straight game on the bench for Castro after he fouled a ball off his knee during Friday's contest. The utility man was diagnosed with a bruise and is considered day-to-day. Kody Clemens is manning the keystone Sunday while Brooks Lee starts at shortstop in place of Carlos Correa (concussion).

  • Red Sox's Kristian Campbell: Taking seat amid slump

    Campbell is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

    Campbell has just one hit in his past 26 at-bats and has a .085 average (4-for-47) and 31.3 percent strikeout rate through 12 games in May, so he'll get a breather for Sunday's series finale versus Atlanta. David Hamilton will step in at the keystone and bat eighth for Boston.

  • Luis Urias 2B | ATH

    Athletics' Luis Urias: Notches first steal

    Urias went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Saturday's 1-0 extra-inning loss to the Giants.

    Urias had one of the Athletics' five hits in the contest, where offense was at a premium. He's been pretty good in May, hitting safely in 11 of his 14 games. He's gone 14-for-46 (.304) this month, though just three of those hits have gone for extra bases. The infielder is at a .274/.355/.474 slash line with six home runs, 10 RBI, 12 runs scored and a steal through 33 contests this season.

  • Kody Clemens 1B | MIN

    Twins' Kody Clemens: Remains hot with three hits

    Clemens went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in a 7-0 win against Milwaukee on Saturday.

    Clemens collected his first three-hit performance of the campaign, with one of his knocks being a solo homer in the fifth inning. The 29-year-old began the season with just three hits over his first 24 at-bats, but he's picked things up of late. Over his past four contests, Clemens has recorded three multi-hit efforts while going 7-for-15 with two long balls and six RBI.

  • Orioles' Jackson Holliday: Homers in loss

    Holliday went 2-for-5 with a home run, a double and three RBI in Saturday's 10-6 loss to the Nationals.

    Holliday doubled to lead off the first inning and later added a three-run home run in the ninth. The 21-year-old has now hit safely in four straight games, including consecutive multi-hit performances. He's slashing .269/.329/.425 with five homers, 16 RBI, 14 runs scored and two steals across 146 plate appearances this season, and he's hit leadoff in each of the Orioles' past four games against right-handed starters.

  • DJ LeMahieu 2B | NYY

    Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Pops first homer

    LeMahieu went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Mets.

    In his third game since recovering from calf and hip injuries to make his belated season debut, LeMahieu was able to poke a Griffin Canning fastball down the right-field line into the Yankee Stadium short porch for a third-inning homer, and his first long ball of the year. The 36-year-old infielder has three hits in eight at-bats since being activated, and he should see regular playing time at second base while Jazz Chisholm (oblique) remains sidelined.

  • Willi Castro LF | COL

    Twins' Willi Castro: Out of lineup Saturday

    Castro (knee) isn't in the starting lineup for Saturday's game versus Milwaukee.

    Castro was pulled early from Friday's game against the Brewers after fouling a ball off his knee in the first inning. Though he was able to finish his at-bat, the utility man was replaced in the field for the following frame and will now be held out of the lineup for at least one game. Castro had started in left field Friday with Harrison Bader out of action while battling a groin injury, but Bader is back starting in left Saturday.
