  • Alec Bohm 3B | PHI

    Phillies' Alec Bohm: Continues to hit for average

    Bohm went 1-for-4 with a run scored in Thursday's 7-6 extra-inning victory over the Rays.

    Through his first seven games in May, Bohm is batting .308 with one home run, one double, four RBI and four runs scored over 26 at-bats. The corner infielder hasn't hit for much power overall in 2025, but he's batting .304 (24-for-79) across his last 21 outings. Bohm began the season in the top half of Philadelphia's lineup, but he'll likely stick in the lower part of the batting order unless he starts to supply more pop.

  • Rays' Junior Caminero: Continues to thrive at home

    Caminero went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional RBI in Thursday's extra-inning loss to the Phillies.

    It was the slugging third baseman's first multi-RBI effort since April 17. Caminero also has just one multi-hit effort in his last 15 outings, but he has consistently occupied a premium spot in Tampa Bay's batting order. It's also worth noting he's thrived at hitter-friendly George M. Steinbrenner Field this season, as Caminero is batting .298 with an .891 OPS over 94 at-bats at home while hitting a paltry .122 with a .330 OPS across 41 at-bats on the road.

  • Luis Rengifo 3B | LAA

    Angels' Luis Rengifo: Out of lineup Thursday

    Rengifo is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Blue Jays, Rhett Bollinger reports.

    Rengifo remains a key part of the Angels' lineup, though he has started to sit more of late. He began the regular season with only one day off through 21 games, but he since appears to be settling into a pattern of getting at least one day off per week. His slight downturn in playing time could be a result of his slow start at the dish, as he has just a .210/.246/.277 line across 126 plate appearances. Both Yoan Moncada and Tim Anderson are in the lineup Thursday in Rengifo's absence.

  • Amed Rosario SS | NYY

    Nationals' Amed Rosario: On base four times Wednesday

    Rosario went 3-for-5 with a walk, a double, a run scored and two RBI in Wednesday's loss to the Guardians.

    Getting the start at third base against southpaw Logan Allen and batting second, Rosario produced his second three-hit effort in his last three games. The veteran infielder has boosted his slash line on the season to .279/.300/.442 with two homers, one steal, nine RBI and 11 runs in 70 plate appearances, but he remains stuck in a timeshare at the hot corner with Jose Tena.

  • Josh Rojas 3B | CHW

    White Sox's Josh Rojas: Taking seat Thursday

    Rojas is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in Kansas City.

    The left-handed-hitting Rojas has now been out of the lineup both times the White Sox have faced a lefty since he returned from the injured list this past weekend, so he looks to be on the strong side of a platoon as he bounces back and forth between third base and second base. Miguel Vargas is at the hot corner and Lenyn Sosa is at the keystone for Thursday's series finale.

  • Ezequiel Duran SS | TEX

    Rangers' Ezequiel Duran: Promotion made official

    The Rangers recalled Duran from Triple-A Round Rock on Thursday.

    The Rangers played a man short in Wednesday's game against the Red Sox, as they put Kevin Pillar (back) on the injured list prior to the contest but had to wait for Duran to arrive in Boston after traveling. Duran is with the big club now, and he'll serve in a utility role.

  • Josh Jung 3B | TEX

    Rangers' Josh Jung: Homers in loss

    Jung batted ninth in the order and went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-4 loss to the Red Sox.

    Jung swatted a homer off closer Aroldis Chapman in the ninth inning. It was his first home run in 12 contests and third of the season. As part of recent personnel changes -- a new hitting coach -- and attempts to shake up a team that has underperformed offensively, manager Bruce Bochy has experimented with different batting orders. He had Jung batting ninth for a second straight game. It's hard to read this as a "demotion," as Jung has been better than several struggling Ranger hitters. Perhaps the manager wanted to stick with the same order that produced 16 hits the previous game.

  • Yoan Moncada 3B | LAA

    Angels' Yoan Moncada: Goes deep again Wednesday

    Moncada went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 5-4 win over Toronto.

    Moncada now has two games under his belt since returning from a nearly month-long stint on the injured list, and he's homered in each contest while driving in four runs. The veteran third's baseman's long ball Wednesday was a 386-footer to right field for his team's first run. Moncada has struggled to stay healthy in recent campaigns, but he has a chance to return to fantasy relevance as the Angels' primary third baseman if he can put those injury issues behind him.

  • Ryan McMahon 3B | NYY

    Rockies' Ryan McMahon: Heating up at plate

    McMahon went 4-for-4 with a home run, two doubles, a walk, two total runs and two total RBI in Wednesday's extra-inning loss to the Tigers.

    McMahon and Michael Toglia teamed up to notch all six of the Rockies' extra-base hits Wednesday, though the pair's performance wasn't enough to upset Detroit. McMahon endured an awful start to the season, batting just .147 with a mere four RBI over 29 games through the end of April. However, the veteran third baseman has begun to turn things around in May -- he's hit safely and driven in at least one run in four of five contests this month, and he's notched five extra-base hits (two doubles, a triple and two homers) in that span.

  • Austin Riley 3B | ATL

    Braves' Austin Riley: Rare stolen base in loss

    Riley went 1-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Wednesday's loss to the Reds.

    Wednesday marked the first stolen base of the campaign and the sixth career steal for the All-Star third baseman. Riley also extended his hitting streak to six games and his on-base streak to 10. Since April 27, Riley is hitting a strong .286 (12-for-42) with two home runs, two doubles, seven RBI and four runs scored.
