  • Adam Frazier 2B | LAA

    Pirates' Adam Frazier: Swipes second bag

    Frazier went 1-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored Sunday against the Guardians.

    Frazier extended his hitting streak to five games when he delivered a two-RBI double in the ninth inning. He went on to steal third base -- his second theft of the season -- and score the game-tying run. Even with the solid showing, Frazier is hitting only .209 this season with a .090 ISO across 71 plate appearances.

  • Giants' Tyler Fitzgerald: Swipes bag Sunday

    Fitzgerald went 1-for-2 with two walks, a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's loss to the Angels.

    Fitzgerald capped off his excellent week by reaching base three times and swiping his fifth bag of the year. It was only the second time in his career he's taken multiple walks in a game, and he had just three walks in 18 games coming into Sunday. Fitzgerald has been surging at the plate and is batting .400 over his last 10 games with five extra-base hits, six RBI and seven runs.

  • Kyle Farmer 3B | ATL

    Rockies' Kyle Farmer: On bench for nightcap

    Farmer is not in the starting lineup for Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader with the Nationals.

    Farmer will take a seat after he went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in the team's 3-2 loss in Game 1 on Sunday. Aaron Schunk will take over at shortstop and bat ninth in Game 2 versus Washington.

  • Brice Turang 2B | MIL

    Brewers' Brice Turang: Runs wild Sunday

    Turang went 2-for-3 with a walk, three runs scored, an RBI and three stolen bases in Sunday's 14-1 victory over the Athletics.

    Turang singled before stealing both second and third base in the first inning, coming around to score on a throwing error by Shea Langeliers. The second baseman drew a walk and stole second base again in the second inning and scored on a double from Jackson Chourio. Turang later added another single and a sacrifice fly to round out his day. The 25-year-old is now batting .322 with three home runs, 11 RBI, 23 runs scored and eight stolen bases over 22 games in 2025.

  • Luis Garcia 1B | WAS

    Nationals' Luis Garcia: On bench for matinee

    Garcia is out of the lineup for the first game of Sunday's doubleheader in Colorado, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    Garcia started the past 12 games but will sit for Sunday's matinee after posting a .238/.327/.286 slash line during that stretch. Amed Rosario will shift to the keystone to open up third base for Trey Lipscomb, who is making his season debut.

  • Ronny Simon 2B | PIT

    Marlins' Ronny Simon: Contract selected by Miami

    The Marlins selected Simon's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday.

    The 25-year-old will take the roster spot of Griffin Conine, who was placed on the injured list Sunday with a dislocated shoulder. Simon has a .962 OPS through 15 games with Jacksonville this year and will be making his MLB debut when he gets into a game.

  • Tim Tawa LF | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Tim Tawa: Homers in loss

    Tawa went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Cubs.

    Arizona's bats were mostly quiet on the day. Tawa's homer in the ninth inning, his second of the season, was one of only four hits for the team -- Corbin Carroll had the other three. Tawa has reached base safely in six of seven starts and is slashing .217/.321/.522 over nine outings since being called up to help fill in for the injured Ketel Marte (hamstring) at second base.

  • Luis Garcia 1B | WAS

    Nationals' Luis Garcia: Perfect at the plate in win

    Garcia went 2-for-2 with three walks, four runs scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 12-11 win over the Rockies.

    Garcia was a pest all game, scoring four runs and swiping his third bag of the season. It was an encouraging effort for the 24-year-old, who is slashing just .206/.271/.302 with one home run, five RBI, 10 runs scored and three steals across 70 plate appearances this season. While his slow start and tendency to sit against lefties have been discouraging, a solid 6:8 BB:K suggests he can turn things around.

  • Caleb Durbin 3B | BOS

    Brewers' Caleb Durbin: Two knocks in debut

    Durbin went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Friday's 5-3 win over the Athletics.

    This was Durbin's major-league debut, and he batted ninth while starting at third base. The 25-year-old prospect has a chance to get a long look at the hot corner given the Brewers' lack of other viable options there. At Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in 2024, he logged 29 steals on 32 attempts while slashing .287/.396/.471 over 82 games. Durbin should be able to carve out some fantasy value in NL-only leagues at a minimum if he can be steady at the plate and swift on the basepaths during his first stint in the majors.

  • Brice Turang 2B | MIL

    Brewers' Brice Turang: Scores three times Friday

    Turang went 1-for-3 with a stolen base and three runs scored in Friday's 5-3 win over the Athletics.

    Turang bounced back from an 0-for-4 effort Wednesday versus the Tigers, which was just his second hitless effort of the year. The speedy second baseman has swiped three bags over his last five games. He's up to a .313/.349/.438 slash line with five steals, three home runs, 10 RBI and 20 runs scored over 20 contests as the Brewers' main leadoff hitter.
