Estrada went 1-for-4 with an RBI on Saturday against the Mets.

Estrada was activated from the injured list Friday for his season debut and his RBI single in the seventh inning Saturday marked his first hit of the campaign. Estrada should be Colorado's primary second baseman and looks likely to hit fourth or fifth in the order.

Farmer went 0-for-3 with a strikeout Saturday against the Mets.

Farmer's performance didn't stand out, but he started at first base on the same day that Michael Toglia was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque. Farmer also occupied the position when Toglia got a breather from May 21 to May 23, signs that combine to suggest that Farmer will serve as Colorado's primary first baseman for the time being. He has only a .236/.274/.365 line across 157 plate appearances for the season.

McNeil went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and one stolen base in Saturday's victory over the Rockies.

McNeil's homer in the seventh inning was the icing on the cake in a resounding 8-2 win for the Mets. The 33-year-old has rediscovered his power this season, posting a .474 slugging percentage through 28 games -- his best mark since 2019. In addition to his strong start at the plate, the utility man provides value with his ability to play both infield and outfield, which helps keep him in the lineup regularly.

Mauricio is batting .560 (14-for-25) with three homers and three steals through his first seven games for Triple-A Syracuse, but the Mets remain very deliberate in building up his workload, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

The 24-year-old infielder has yet to play more than two games in a row without getting a day off with Syracuse, and the Mets are intent on making sure Mauricio stays healthy after he missed the entire 2024 campaign due to knee surgery. "We're most focused on him getting the reps under him, getting the volume, hopefully continuing to swing a really hot bat," president of baseball operations David Stearns said this week. "And then once we get to that point, it gives us something to think about." New York also doesn't have a clear path to consistent at-bats on the big-league roster for Mauricio, and it doesn't intend to call him up just to sit on the bench. "Figuring out exactly what that puzzle looks like is a real part of it," Stearns said. Mauricio still figures to provide the Mets with a boost at some point this summer, but until then he'll continue to torment International League pitching while preparing for an everyday role.

Marte went 1-for-3 with two walks and a run scored in Friday's 9-7 loss to Washington.

Marte returned to action after missing two games due to an illness. He was back in the field at second base and batting second behind Corbin Carroll against a righty. Marte has hit safely in the 10 straight games, batting .350 (14-for-40) with three home runs, five RBI, one steal and nine runs scored in that span.

Fitzgerald went 3-for-4 with a double during Friday's 2-0 victory over the Marlins.

Fitzgerald delivered fantastic production out of the ninth spot in the lineup yet again for the Giants, picking up his third three-hit game of the season and snapping a three-game drought without a hit in the process. He also didn't strike out for the first time in seven contests. Slashing .277/.333/.403 on the season, Fitzgerald does not have numbers typical of a batter hitting in the nine slot but that's where he has been used lately. The 27-year-old will hope to discover his power stroke, as he's without an extra-base hit in his last six games.

Marte (illness) will start at second base and bat second Friday against the Nationals, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.

Marte sat out Arizona's last two games while fighting off an illness, but he seems to be feeling better ahead of Friday's contest. The 31-year-old will look to remain scorching hot during his return after compiling a nine-game hitting streak before getting sick.

The Rockies reinstated Estrada (wrist) from the 60-day injured list Friday.

The veteran infielder was sidelined by a fractured wrist late in spring training, but he's ready to make his Rockies debut after going 7-for-23 with a double during a five-game rehab assignment. Estrada should take over as Colorado's primary second baseman after signing a one-year, $3.25 million contract during the offseason.

The Marlins designated Simon for assignment Friday.

Simon is losing his spot on the 26-man and 40-man rosters after a three-error game earlier this week. The 25-year-old also never got on track offensively while up with the Marlins with a .234/.327/.277 slash line in 56 plate appearances.

Simon is expected to be designated for assignment by the Marlins on Friday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

The 25-year-old had a three-error game earlier this week and will lose his place on Miami's 26-man and 40-man rosters after posting a .604 OPS in 19 games. Simon will likely return to Triple-A Jacksonville if he clears waivers, where he had a .962 OPS in 15 games to begin the season.
