Frazier went 1-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 8-4 win over the White Sox.

Frazier started his Orioles career hot, but he hasn't logged a multi-hit effort since April 2. The second baseman has his safely in four of his last five games, and his steal Sunday was his third of the season. Overall, he's slashing .250/.333/.375 with a home run, five RBI, 10 runs scored and three doubles through 54 plate appearances.

Drury will start at second base and bat seventh in Monday's game against the Red Sox, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

After serving mainly as a short-side platoon mate with Jake Lamb at first base through the first two weeks of the season, Drury closed the weekend with three consecutive starts at second base, all of which came against right-handed pitching. With another righty in (Brayan Bello) on the mound Monday, Drury will continue to occupy the keystone and Lamb will start at first base, leaving no room in the infield for Luis Rengifo. With Rengifo having now sat in two of the past three games while making his lone start in left field during that span, he appears to have moved into a utility role for the time being while Drury looks to have overtaken him at second base.

Rengifo is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Red Sox, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Rengifo will sit for the second time in three days while Brandon Drury picks up another start at the keystone at his expense. Though he started at shortstop in Friday's series opener in Boston, Rengifo has now ceded the position to top prospect Zach Neto for three straight days. With Neto seemingly locked into an everyday role and Drury beginning to gain traction as the Halos' primary second baseman, Rengifo could be transitioning into more of a utility role that may include occasional work in the corner outfield, where he made a start Sunday.

Turang went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Sunday's 1-0 win over the Padres.

Turang notched a base hit to lead off the 5th inning and stole second base to give the Brewers a runner in scoring position with nobody out but was stranded there. The 23-year-old struck out his other three times up, which was just the second game this season he's struck out more than twice. Turang got off to a hot start but has cooled off some, and now sits at a slash line of .273/.333/.364 over 48 plate appearances.

Albies went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's victory over the Royals.

Albies launched his third home run of the season in the fourth inning, driving a pitch from Zack Greinke over the right-field fence. The 26-year-old second baseman would add a double off Scott Barlow in the ninth to collect his third multi-hit game of the year. With a .262 batting average and .279 on-base percentage, Albies has scored six runs and knocked in 11 through 65 plate appearances.

Semien went 2-for-5 with a grand slam in Sunday's win over Houston.

Semien broke the game open with his grand slam during the Rangers' six-run seventh inning. He snapped a 12-game homerless drought and set a new season high with four RBI. Semien is now slashing .250/.279/.406 with six extra-base hits and 12 RBI through 15 games.

Polanco (knee) went 1-for-4 Sunday for Low-A Fort Myers, playing in back-to-back games for the first time this season. His rehab assignment could be transferred to Triple-A St. Paul soon, and he could be activated in about a week, Phil Miller of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Polanco missed the final month of 2022 with a knee injury, and his progress stalled in the Grapefruit League. He began a rehab assignment April 6, and the Twins said they wanted him to get in several weeks of work before activating him from the injured list. He's hitting .278 (5-for-8) with three walks in six games at Fort Myers.

Stott went 3-for-7 with a solo home run and an additional RBI during Sunday's 14-3 win over the Reds.

Stott lead off the game with a solo blast against Luis Cessa, which marked the shortstop's first homer of the season and extended his hit streak to 16 games. He added an RBI single in the the ninth and now has 10 multi-knock outings this year.

Garcia went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer run in Sunday's 7-6 win over the Guardians.

Garcia cut Washington's deficit to 6-5 in the seventh inning, launching a 430-foot two-run shot off the left-handed Tim Herrin. The 22-year-old Garcia has been hot since returning from a hamstring injury, going 5-for-11 with two home runs in his last three games. He's now slashing .286/.316/.486 through 35 at-bats to start the year.

Bae is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

Bae started the past five games and will step out of the lineup for Sunday's series finale after he went 3-for-18 with a home run, three RBI, two stolen bases and six strikeouts during that stretch. Tucupita Marcano will take over at the keystone and bat eighth.
