  • Ketel Marte 2B | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Slugs 12th homer

    Marte went 2-for-7 with a two-run home run in losses to the Reds on Friday and Saturday. The Friday game was suspended after six innings due to weather and completed Saturday.

    Marte launched his 12th homer of the year during the Friday portion of the suspended game, giving him home runs in consecutive games and four in a four-game span. Marte has nine home runs and 16 RBI over the last 19 contests, during which he's slashed .342/.455/.740 across 89 plate appearances.

  • Brandon Lowe 2B | PIT

    Rays' Brandon Lowe: Clubs 13th homer

    Lowe went 1-for-5 with a solo home run during Saturday's 11-10 loss to the Marlins in extras.

    Lowe hit his 13th home run on the season Saturday and knocked in his 34th RBI of the year in the process. The 30-year-old is on pace to top 30 home runs and 80 RBI, which would be his best season since 2021 -- the last time he was healthy enough to play more than 109 games. He is currently slashing .247/.298/.454 for the campaign.

  • Marcus Semien 2B | NYM

    Rangers' Marcus Semien: Stays hot in win

    Semien went 2-for-3 with a double, three RBI and one run scored in Saturday's 5-0 victory over the Nationals.

    After going 0-for-4 in the series opener against the Nationals, Semien bounced back Saturday to stay hot at the plate. He struggled mightily in May, slashing just .207/.302/.272 with two extra-base hits and eight RBI, but the second baseman is off to a scorching start to June with a .421/.522/.895 line, five extra-base hits and five RBI through six games. For a Rangers team that has underwhelmed in 2025, a resurgence from the 34-year-old could be a key factor in helping them work their way back into contention.

  • Chris Taylor LF | LAA

    Angels' Chris Taylor: Makes impact off bench in win

    Taylor went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, an RBI double and a second run scored in Saturday's 8-6 win over the Mariners. He was also hit by two pitches.

    Jorge Soler (groin) was pulled from the game early, so Taylor filled in as the right fielder. He made an impact right away with a second-inning homer and also plated the tying run one frame later. Should Soler miss any time, Taylor would be an option to fill in until Mike Trout is ready to play in right field. Taylor is slashing .220/.258/.356 with one homer, five RBI, 10 runs scored and a stolen base over 62 plate appearances between the Angels and the Dodgers this season.

  • Jeff McNeil 2B | ATH

    Mets' Jeff McNeil: Clubs homer in Saturday's win

    McNeil went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's 8-1 win over the Rockies.

    McNeil has hit safely in eight of his last nine games, going 9-for-32 (.281) with two homers in that span. The 33-year-old's blast gave the Mets a 4-1 lead in the sixth inning. McNeil is batting .240 with an .805 OPS, four homers, 13 RBI, nine runs scored, four doubles, three triples and a stolen base across 34 contests this season. He's been a regular in the lineup since returning from a season-opening oblique injury, splitting time between second base and the outfield.

  • Max Muncy SS | ATH

    Athletics' Max Muncy: Getting rest

    Muncy is out of Saturday's lineup against the Orioles.

    Muncy had started three straight games at third base since being recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday. He's gone 3-for-13 with a home run and five strikeouts and will hit the bench Saturday in favor of Logan Davidson.

  • Luis Urias 2B | ATH

    Athletics' Luis Urias: Resting Saturday

    Urias is out of Saturday's lineup against the Orioles.

    Urias is sitting for the second time in his last three games and is hitting just .182 across his last 10 starts. Max Schuemann will take over at second base and hit ninth.

  • Chris Taylor LF | LAA

    Angels' Chris Taylor: Absent from Saturday's lineup

    Taylor is not in Saturday's lineup against the Mariners.

    Taylor had started three straight games at second base entering Saturday's matchup. However, he'll head to the bench Saturday with Kevin Newman entering the lineup to play third base, shifting Luis Rengifo to second base.

  • Jazz Chisholm 2B | NYY

    Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Idle Saturday

    Chisholm is not in the Yankees' starting lineup against the Red Sox on Saturday, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

    Chisholm will take a breather from Saturday's AL East showdown after going 3-for-5 with two steals, one home run and four RBI in Friday's win. Pablo Reyes will start at third base and bat eighth. Chisholm has batted .500 (8-for-16) since being reinstated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

  • Adam Frazier 2B | LAA

    Pirates' Adam Frazier: Collects three hits

    Frazier went 3-for-4 with a double and a run scored Friday against the Phillies.

    Frazier has started only two of four games since Nick Gonzales returned, and his playing time at second base will likely diminish greatly. However, he started in right field Friday with both Andrew McCutchen and Tommy Pham out of the lineup. Frazier has hit well when given a chance of late, batting .368 with four RBI and five runs scored across his last 10 starts.
