  • Nico Hoerner 2B | CHC

    Cubs' Nico Hoerner: Records two more hits

    Hoerner went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Wednesday's 7-2 loss to the Phillies.

    Hoerner delivered his second straight two-hit performance to wrap up the series against Philadelphia. The infielder is once again providing a strong batting average with little power, as he's now hitting .288 with no home runs and a .693 OPS. Hoerner's best fantasy asset remains his speed, as he has 13 stolen bases this season in 16 attempts, and he should also be able to score a decent number of runs as part of a potent Chicago lineup.

  • Cardinals' Brendan Donovan: Awaiting MRI results

    The Cardinals are awaiting results of an MRI on Donovan's injured left big toe, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

    Donovan felt discomfort with the toe prior to Tuesday's contest against the Blue Jays and eventually had to be removed from that game after the soreness worsened. The super utility player is not in the lineup Wednesday and the Cardinals expect to know more about Donovan's condition after the game.

  • Tommy Edman 2B | LAD

    Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Out of Wednesday's lineup

    Edman is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game in San Diego.

    Edman has reached base six times over the previous three contests, but he will get a breather for Wednesday's series finale. Hyeseong Kim will handle second base and bat ninth for the Dodgers.

  • Cardinals' Brendan Donovan: Sitting out Wednesday

    Donovan (toe) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.

    Donovan departed Tuesday's 10-9 loss due to discomfort in the joint of his left big toe, an injury he said he first felt earlier in the day before it got "progressively worse" during the game, Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. The 28-year-old said that he felt the injury is "not that bad," but he'll still have to sit out Wednesday's matinee. Nolan Gorman will handle second base and bat seventh for the Cardinals.

  • Nolan Gorman 2B | STL

    Cardinals' Nolan Gorman: Continues to heat up with homer

    Gorman went 2-for-3 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 10-9 loss to Toronto.

    Gorman remains stuck in part-time role, but he's been relatively productive lately when given the opportunity to play. Across his last 15 games, the 25-year-old infielder is batting .343 (12-for-35) with four extra-base hits, five RBI and three runs scored. It's unclear if his recent hot streak will earn him more playing time going forward, but Gorman at least has a clearer pathway to at-bats at second base while Brendan Donovan sees extra reps in the outfield amid the absence of Jordan Walker (wrist).

  • Cardinals' Brendan Donovan: Exits with toe injury

    Donovan was removed from Tuesday's game against the Blue Jays due to toe discomfort, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

    It's unclear what caused Donovan's injury, but his toe forced him out of the game in the ninth inning after he had gone 0-for-3 with a run scored. Fantasy managers can consider him day-to-day for now, though Nolan Gorman could pick up some additional starts at second base if Donovan has to miss any amount of time.

  • Adam Frazier 2B | LAA

    Pirates' Adam Frazier: Another start in left field

    Frazier will start in left field and bat sixth in Tuesday's game against the Marlins.

    Frazier, who is hitting .377/.441/.528 over his last 15 games, will draw his second straight start in left field. With Tommy Pham and Alexander Canario providing little offense from the left field spot, Frazier could get some extended run at the position against right-handed pitching.

  • Bryson Stott 2B | PHI

    Phillies' Bryson Stott: Moves down in order amidst slump

    Stott will start at second base and bat fifth in Tuesday's game versus the Cubs.

    Stott has been the Phillies' regular leadoff man against right-handers since mid-April, but he's moving down in the order as the Cubs send righty Colin Rea to the bump. The 27-year-old Stott is slashing only .195/.244/.260 since the start of May.

  • Giants' Christian Koss: Back in big leagues

    The Giants recalled Koss from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    The 27-year-old was demoted last week but will rejoin San Francisco with Matt Chapman (hand) landing on the injured list. Koss has a .219/.275/.266 slash line over 72 plate appearances in the majors this season and will likely fill a reserve role while up with the big club.

  • Adam Frazier 2B | LAA

    Pirates' Adam Frazier: Continues torrid stretch in rout

    Frazier went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in Monday's 10-3 win over the Marlins.

    Frazier recorded his fourth three-hit game of the season, with each coming in his last 12 games. During this span, the veteran utility man is batting a torrid .395 (17-for-43) with one home run, four doubles, five RBI and six runs scored. Frazier regularly sits against southpaws and continues to see limited playing time since Nick Gonzales returned -- Frazier has taken just 19 at-bats versus lefties in 2025 and has started just four of Pittsburgh's past eight contests.
