MLB Player News

Maton went 2-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Sunday's loss to the Nationals.

Maton was the only Detroit player with an extra-base hit, as he popped his fifth home run of the season in the sixth inning. This was only the second multi-hit effort of the month for Maton, who's mostly struggled this year with a .165 batting average across 41 games. He gives the Tigers some defensive versatility but can mostly be avoided in fantasy leagues at the moment.

Ramirez went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk during Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Mets.

The 30-year-old put Cleveland ahead 4-3 with two-run shot to center field during the eighth inning, though the lead didn't last for long. It's just the fifth homer of the season for Ramirez, whose .465 slugging percentage would be his lowest since 2016.

Angels manager Phil Nevin recently said he was encouraged by the results of the MRI that Rendon (groin) received May 17, per MLB.com.

Rendon was placed on the 10-day IL on May 15 with a left groin strain, with the move being retroactive to the previous day. Nevin was optimistic when discussing the third baseman earlier this week, suggesting that his MRI results were encouraging and indicating that the Angels "don't think it'll be very long at all" before he is able to return. Rendon was hitting well prior to the injury, slashing .380/.484/.480 with a home run, nine RBI, 11 runs, a stolen base and an 8:6 BB: K over his previous 14 contests.

Urias is running the bases and testing his strained left hamstring with Baltimore head trainer Brian Ebel on Sunday, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

Depending on how Urias feels after running, the infielder could begin a rehab assignment as early as next week. The infielder has been on the shelf since May 9 with the strain, and he likely would need a handful of games -- if not more -- before having a chance to return next weekend. Assuming there are no setbacks, Urias could be back in the lineup for Baltimore by the end of May.

Peterson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

Peterson has a .693 OPS through 16 games in May and will take a seat Sunday with lefty Framber Valdez pitching for Houston. Nick Allen will start at shortstop with Aledmys Diaz covering the hot corner.

Paredes is not in the starting lineup Sunday against Milwaukee, Kristie Ackert of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Paredes will take a seat after he went 0-for-9 with an RBI and three strikeouts over the last three contests. Taylor Walls will draw the start at the hot corner and bat seventh in the series finale versus the Brewers.

Farmer went 3-for-5 with an RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Angels.

Farmer has logged multiple hits in four of his last six contests, and he's driven in at least one run in five of those games. The 32-year-old continues to hit well, with his latest strong game lifting his season slash line to .319/.377/.478 with three home runs, 14 RBI, 15 runs scored and two doubles through 77 plate appearances.

Suarez went 2-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and two total runs scored in Saturday's 7-3 win over Atlanta.

Suarez has homered twice in the last five games and now has five long balls on the year. He provided the Mariners' last runs of the contest Saturday. The third baseman has hit at least 31 homers in each of the last four full-length seasons, but he's a bit behind the pace in 2023. He's slashing .231/.330/.349 with 25 RBI, 19 runs scored, a stolen base and five doubles through 45 games.

Devers went 2-for-4 with two home runs, four RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 6-1 win over the Padres.

Devers homered in back-to-back innings, going yard in the second and third. The infielder's first long ball put Boston up 1-0, while the second one drove in three runs, extending the lead to 6-0. The 26-year-old now has 13 homers on the year, tied for fourth in MLB.

Peraza (ankle) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list by the Yankees on Friday and optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Peraza will continue to get playing time in Triple-A, but it will no longer be on a rehab assignment. The infielder has a good chance of helping New York at some point this summer, and he'll get more regular playing time while in the International League than he would while a member of the Yankees.
