  • Jose Ramirez 3B | CLE

    Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Knocks third homer

    Ramirez went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer in Sunday's win over the Yankees.

    Ramirez put the Guardians on the board with a two-run shot in the third inning. It was his third long ball of the season and first since April 8. He was stuck in a three-game hitless drought entering Sunday's contest, going 0-for-13 during that stretch. Ramirez is now slashing .246/.257/.435 with six extra-base hits and 12 RBI through 70 plate appearances.

  • Vidal Brujan 2B | NYM

    Marlins' Vidal Brujan: Dealing with knee injury

    Brujan suffered a right knee injury in Sunday's 9-7 loss to Atlanta, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Brujan was replaced at shortstop by Tim Anderson in the top of the seventh frame after suffering an apparent knee injury in the series finale with Atlanta. Brujan is considered day-to-day ahead of the start of a three-game series at home with the Giants beginning Monday.

  • DJ LeMahieu 2B | NYY

    Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Could begin rehab stint this week

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that LeMahieu (foot) could begin rehab assignment once the club finishes up the current road trip Wednesday in Toronto, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

    The 35-year-old is traveling with the Yankees on the road trip and has continued to progress in his rehab work, with game action now seemingly on the horizon. LeMahieu was healthy for most of spring training before suffering the foot fracture in mid-March, so he shouldn't require an extended rehab assignment and could join the Yankees before the end of April.

  • Tyler Wade SS | TEX

    Padres' Tyler Wade: Out of starting lineup

    Wade will not start Sunday against the Dodgers.

    Wade has taken the bulk of starts at the third base this season, but he won't start Sunday as Eguy Rosario takes the field. The 30-year-old Wade went 4-for-8 to begin the year but has gone 4-for-27 across his past 12 games.

  • Eugenio Suarez 3B | CIN

    Diamondbacks' Eugenio Suarez: Receives first day off of season

    Suarez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

    The Diamondbacks haven't indicated that Suarez is nursing any sort of injury in the aftermath of Saturday's 4-2 win, so the veteran third baseman is likely just getting a maintenance day. Jace Peterson will step in at the hot corner while Suarez rests for the first time in 2024 after starting at third base in each of Arizona's first 15 games while hitting .259 with two home runs and 12 RBI.

  • Orioles' Jordan Westburg: Homers in three-hit game

    Westburg went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 11-5 loss to the Brewers.

    Westburg gave the Orioles a 3-0 lead in the first inning with his third homer of the campaign. He's posted three multi-hit efforts over his last six games. The infielder has hit well to maintain a starting role, batting .261 with an .855 OPS, 10 RBI, eight runs scored, two stolen bases and three doubles through 52 plate appearances.

  • Rays' Junior Caminero: Returns from Triple-A IL

    Triple-A Durham reinstated Caminero (quadricep) from its 7-day injured list ahead of Sunday's game against Lehigh Valley.

    Caminero will make his return to the Triple-A lineup for the first time since March 31 after he injured his left quad in Durham's season-opening series. Before getting hurt, Caminero went 4-for-12 with a home run, two walks and one stolen base in three games with Durham. The 20-year-old will play on an everyday basis for Durham and will likely be the top option for a promotion if the Rays lose one of their regular infielders for any length of time down the road.

  • Brett Baty 3B | NYM

    Mets' Brett Baty: Gets Sunday off

    Baty is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.

    With a tough lefty (Cole Ragans) on the bump for Kansas City, the lefty-hitting Baty will give way to Zack Short at third base. Baty will rest for the first time since March 30 after he saw his seven-game hit streak come to an end with an 0-for-4 showing in Saturday's 11-7 loss.

  • Luis Urias 2B | ATH

    Mariners' Luis Urias: Laces timely double Saturday

    Urias went 1-for-2 with an RBI double in a loss to the Cubs on Saturday.

    The offseason addition opened the game at third base and was able to contribute the only run of the game for the Mariners with his second-inning two-bagger that knotted the score at 1-1. His success Saturday notwithstanding, Urias is still scuffling overall with a .174 average and .296 on-base percentage; however, he also carries a .435 slugging percentage thanks to all four of his knocks to date having gone for extra bases.

  • Alex Bregman 3B | CHC

    Astros' Alex Bregman: Absence continues Sunday

    Bregman (illness) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Bregman will sit for the third consecutive game as he continues to deal with an illness. According to Chandler Rome of The Athletic, Bregman was able to participate in baseball activities during a pregame workout, so he could be available off the bench and may be ready to return to the lineup Monday versus Atlanta. Mauricio Dubon will spell him at third base Sunday.
