  • Ketel Marte 2B | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Scores lone run in win

    Marte went 2-for-3 with a solo home run during Sunday's 1-0 win over the Rockies.

    Marte accounted for two of the seven combined hits in Sunday's game and provided the only run by taking Chase Dollander yard in the first inning. The long ball was Marte's sixth of the season, and his third in the last four games. During that four-game stretch, Marte is 6-for-16 (.375) with five RBI and six runs scored.

  • Cardinals' Brendan Donovan: Laces four hits in loss

    Donovan went 4-for-5 with a double in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Royals.

    The St. Louis second baseman posted his fourth career four-hit effort in the series finale at Kansas City. Despite not having a homer in May, Donovan has continued to perform well, batting .323 (20-for-62) with six doubles, nine runs scored and four RBI across 16 games this month. Overall, the 28-year-old is slashing .330/.387/.466 with 25 runs scored and 21 RBI through 195 plate appearances.

  • Otto Lopez SS | MIA

    Marlins' Otto Lopez: Slugs homer in return

    Lopez went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer in Sunday's 5-1 victory over the Rays.

    The 26-year-old made his first appearance since May 2 after being activated from the injured list for an ankle injury before the contest. Lopez blasted a 401-foot home run off Tampa Bay starter Shane Baz in the fourth inning to give Miami a 3-1 lead. Lopez is now slashing .230/.293/.354 with three homers and steals apiece through 123 plate appearances. He appears set to re-establish his role as the Marlins' everyday second baseman.

  • Giants' Tyler Fitzgerald: Not in lineup

    Fitzgerald isn't part of the starting nine for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

    Fitzgerald will get a day off after making back-to-back starts following his activation from the 10-day injured list Friday. In his place, Christian Koss will bat ninth and play second base.

  • Tommy Edman 2B | LAD

    Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Activated and in lineup

    Edman (ankle) has been activated from the 10-day injured list and will bat sixth and play center field Sunday against the Angels, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

    Edman landed on the injured list April 30 after tweaking his right ankle but recovered slower than anticipated. He's finally healthy enough to rejoin the active roster and immediately joins the starting nine. Edman slashed .252/.295/.523 with eight home runs in 122 plate appearances before the injury. The Dodgers designated Chris Taylor for assignment in a corresponding move.

  • Otto Lopez SS | MIA

    Marlins' Otto Lopez: Activated off IL

    The Marlins reinstated Lopez (ankle) from the 10-day injured list Sunday.

    Lopez missed two weeks of action after being diagnosed with a Grade 2 right ankle sprain in early May. The 26-year-old should immediately regain a near-everyday role at second base. Despite Lopez's return, the Marlins' infield is still missing a key piece, as shortstop Xavier Edwards was placed on the 10-day IL on Sunday due to a mid-back strain.

  • Nico Hoerner 2B | CHC

    Cubs' Nico Hoerner: Reaches four more times Saturday

    Hoerner went 2-for-3 with two walks, two runs scored and an RBI in Saturday's 7-3 win over the White Sox. He also stole a base.

    For the second straight game, Hoerner tallied two hits and a stolen base against the Cubs' crosstown rivals. He's now up to 10 steals on the season, and the infielder should continue to run frequently after swiping 31 bags in 2024. Hoerner is also helping fantasy managers with a .285 batting average, which is slightly ahead of his career .278 figure.

  • Kyle Farmer 2B | COL

    Rockies' Kyle Farmer: Drives in four runs Saturday

    Farmer went 2-for-5 with a home run, a double and four total RBI in Saturday's 14-12 victory versus Arizona.

    Farmer had two big hits in the victory -- a two-run homer in the third inning that tied the score 6-6 and a two-run double in the sixth that pulled the Rockies within a run. The veteran infielder's long ball was his second in as many games after he began the campaign with no homers through his first 35 contests. Farmer doesn't have an everyday role with the Rockies, as he started Saturday for just the second time across the team's past five games.

  • Bryson Stott 2B | PHI

    Phillies' Bryson Stott: Homers, steals in win

    Stott went 2-for-5 with a home run, three RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Pirates.

    Stott did all of his damage between the third and fourth innings, including a 411-foot solo homer. The second baseman has gone just 11-for-55 in May, though he has hit safely in four of his past five games. He's slashing .263/.329/.397 with four home runs, 24 RBI, 24 runs scored and nine steals across 174 plate appearances this season and continues to hit leadoff against right-handed starters.

  • Luis Garcia 2B | WAS

    Nationals' Luis Garcia: Drives in three in win

    Garcia went 2-for-5 with a double, three RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 10-6 win over the Orioles.

    Garcia hit a two-run single in the first inning and drove in another run on a double in the second. The second baseman has gone just 9-for-45 in so far in May but has tallied multi-hit efforts in each of his past two starts. On the season, he's hitting .229 with three home runs, 16 RBI, 19 runs scored and six steals across 157 plate appearances.
