    Rockies' Alan Trejo: Traded to Colorado

    The Rangers traded Trejo to the Rockies on Saturday for cash considerations, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

    Trejo, who has spent the entire 2025 season with Triple-A Round Rock, will head to the Rockies and is expected to have his contract selected ahead of Sunday's game against the Reds. It's a return to Colorado for Trejo, who played for the Rockies from 2020 to 2024 before signing a minor-league deal with the Rangers in December. He was slashing .211/.247/.352 with one stolen base and 13 RBI in 77 plate appearances in Triple-A this year.

  • Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Idle Saturday

    Rodgers is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against Kansas City.

    Rodgers will grab a seat on the bench for the third time in as many games after going 3-for-21 with four RBI and nine strikeouts over his last seven games. Mauricio Dubon will pick up a start at second base and bat ninth while Rodgers sits.

  • Coco Montes 2B | TB

    Rays' Coco Montes: Moved to Durham

    The Rays optioned Montes to Triple-A Durham on Saturday, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

    Montes will end up without a spot on the active roster now that the Rays have brought in Travis Jankowski to help relieve their depleted outfield unit. The 28-year-old Montes owns a .489 OPS through 51 plate appearances in Triple-A this season, but he still could return to Tampa Bay if the Rays' bench depth is tested even further.

  • Royals' Michael Massey: Taking Saturday off vs. LHP

    Massey isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Houston.

    Massey and his career .623 OPS against southpaws will take a seat Saturday against Framber Valdez. Maikel Garcia will start at second base.

  • Giants' Tyler Fitzgerald: Late scratch Saturday

    Fitzgerald was scratched from the lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Rangers due to a chest contusion, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Fitzgerald may have injured his chest while diving over the side wall to catch a foul ball Friday. He'll take a day to recover Saturday; meanwhile, Christian Koss will fill in at second base and bat eighth.

  • Edouard Julien 2B | COL

    Twins' Edouard Julien: Sitting Saturday

    Julien isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Angels.

  • Kyren Paris SS | LAA

    Angels' Kyren Paris: Sitting second straight

    Paris isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Twins, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

    Paris has cooled off tremendously after a hot start to the season, going 0-for-21 with 12 strikeouts over his last eight games. He'll take a seat for the second game in a row Saturday while Tim Anderson starts at second base and bats ninth.

  • Colt Keith 3B | DET

    Tigers' Colt Keith: Sitting out Game 1

    Keith isn't in the lineup for the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against Baltimore.

    Keith will take a seat to begin Saturday's festivities after going 2-for-10 with an RBI and a run scored over his last five games. His absence will put Spencer Torkelson at first base and open a spot in the lineup for Zack McKinstry to start in right field, batting third.

  • Brooks Baldwin SS | CHW

    White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Pops two-run homer

    Baldwin went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run Friday against the Athletics.

    Baldwin has primarily started in the corner outfield spots for the White Sox, but he slotted in at shortstop Friday with Chase Meidroth (thumb) sidelined. He popped his second homer of the season in the ninth inning against impressive closer Mason Miller, giving Baldwin his first multi-hit effort since April 11. Despite the slow stretch, he has six extra-base hits with a 108 wRC+ across 74 plate appearances.
