  • Caleb Durbin 3B | MIL

    Brewers' Caleb Durbin: Officially called up

    The Brewers recalled Durbin from Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

    Durbin entered spring training as the favorite to be Milwaukee's primary third baseman after being acquired from the Yankees this offseason in the Devin Williams trade, but he ended up beginning the campaign in the minors. The 25-year-old hit well to start the season at Nashville with two homers, three steals and a .278/.316/.481 slash line in 13 games, and he's now primed to make his MLB debut for the Brewers. Following the demotion of Oliver Dunn on Thursday, Durbin is poised to receive regular playing time at the hot corner.

  • Guardians' Daniel Schneemann: Solo shot against Baltimore

    Schneemann went 2-for-4 with a solo homer in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Orioles.

    Schneemann got the Guardians on the board in the third inning when he took the first pitch he saw from Tomoyuki Sugano deep to center field for a 395-foot solo homer. It was Schneemann's second home run of the season, and the 28-year-old has gone 5-for-11 with one homer and two RBI over his last three games.

  • Giants' Tyler Fitzgerald: Cracks second homer of 2025

    Fitzgerald went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Phillies.

    Fitzgerald struck out in his first three at-bats but launched a 381-foot homer to left field in the ninth inning. The 27-year-old infielder logged at least one hit in all four games of the Giants' series against the Phillies, going 8-for-17 at the plate during that span. Fitzgerald dealt with a lower-back injury during spring training and struggled at the start of the 2025 campaign. When asked about his slow start to the season Wednesday, Fitzgerald said, "I just felt like I had some really bad habits from when I hurt my back in spring training," according to Maria Guardado of MLB.com. However, he has been stellar of late and is now slashing .309/.345/.527 with 10 runs scored, seven extra-base hits, six RBI and a 3:15 BB:K across 60 plate appearances.

  • Luke Keaschall 2B | MIN

    Twins' Luke Keaschall: Bound for big leagues

    The Twins plan to select Keaschall's contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Friday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

    With the Twins currently dealing with injuries to Royce Lewis (hamstring), Willi Castro (oblique) and Carlos Correa (wrist), the team will call upon Keaschall to provide a healthy body capable of playing in the infield. The 22-year-old prospect has only started at second base (and DH) in the minors this year, though he also has a bit of experience at first and in center field. He owns a .727 OPS with five RBI, eight runs scored and four stolen bases through 14 Triple-A contests this year and will be making his MLB debut whenever he gets into a game.

  • Mets' Luisangel Acuna: Exits starting nine

    Acuna is not in the lineup for Thursday's tilt versus the Cardinals, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    Acuna had started each of the previous four contests at second base, but he'll begin Thursday's series opener on the bench. Brett Baty is handling second base and batting eighth for the Mets.

  • Caleb Durbin 3B | MIL

    Brewers' Caleb Durbin: En route to Milwaukee

    The Brewers will recall Durbin from Triple-A Nashville on Friday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    The Brewers were left with a hole at third base after optioning Oliver Dunn to Nashville on Thursday, and it now appears that Durbin will take over as Milwaukee's primary starter at the hot corner once he officially joins the big-league club. The 25-year-old speedster has slashed .278/.316/.481 with two home runs, three RBI, 12 runs scored and three stolen bases through 58 minor-league plate appearances, and he's recorded a base hit in 11 of his 13 contests. His first game in Milwaukee will mark his MLB debut.
