  • Jace Peterson SS | ARI

    Athletics' Jace Peterson: Nabs stolen base Sunday

    Peterson went 0-for-3 with two walks, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Mets.

    Peterson walked in the sixth and eighth inning. He stole his second base of the year in the sixth and scored on a two-run double by Shea Langliers in the eighth. The 33-year-old has not done much to warrant fantasy consideration, as he's slashing .204/.273/.306 with a home run and seven RBI over 55 plate appearances.

  • Patrick Wisdom 3B | SEA

    Cubs' Patrick Wisdom: Blasts sixth home run

    Wisdom went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Dodgers.

    Wisdom has now homered in three straight games, giving him six long balls on the season. After going deep a total of 53 times the last two years, he looks poised to reach the 20-homer plateau again in 2023. At this rate, Wisdom could definitely reach 30 home runs for the first time in his career as well. He doesn't offer a ton outside the power, but fantasy managers should welcome his recent production.

  • Nationals' Jeimer Candelario: Four hits, homer in win

    Candelario went 4-for-5 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's win over the Guardians.

    Candelario put on a show Sunday. He opened the scoring with an RBI single in the first inning before launching a home run, his third of the season, off Shane Bieber in the third. Candelario has hit safely in his last four contests, going 9-for-17 with two doubles and a homer in that span. The 29-year-old third baseman is off to a nice start, hitting .284/.310/.463 through his first 71 at-bats with Washington with nine RBI and nine runs scored.

  • DJ LeMahieu 2B | NYY

    Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Powers Yankees in win

    LeMahieu went 2-for-4 with a homer and two RBI in Sunday's 2-0 victory over Minnesota.

    LeMahieu provided all of the offense in Sunday's victory, driving in Aaron Judge with a single in the third inning before cranking a solo home run off Pablo Lopez in the sixth. LeMahieu has gotten off to a nice start this season, slashing .283/.353/.543 with two home runs, six RBI and 10 runs scored. He has five hits over his last three games, which covers 12 at-bats around a short absence due to a quad injury.

  • Brett Baty RF | NYM

    Mets' Brett Baty: Getting call-up from Triple-A

    The Mets will recall Baty from Triple-A Syracuse ahead of Monday's game against the Dodgers, Andy Martino of SNY.tv reports.

    Baty is one of the top position prospects in baseball and has scorched Triple-A pitching to the tune of a 1.386 OPS in nine games in the International League. The 23-year-old won't be in the lineup for Sunday's finale against the Athletics but should see regular playing time at the expense of the struggling Eduardo Escobar once his call-up is official. Baty's offensive upside makes him well worth an addition in the overwhelming majority of fantasy formats.

  • Ramon Urias 3B | STL

    Orioles' Ramon Urias: Diagnosed with contusion behind ear

    Orioles manager Brandon Hyde told reporters that Urias is still in the concussion protocol and dealing with a bruise behind his left ear, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Urias is out of the lineup Sunday after taking a fastball to his head and being removed from the lineup against the White Sox on Saturday. The manager also mentioned he was unsure if Urias will be ready for Tuesday's game against the Nationals, and a trip to the seven-day injured list can't be ruled out at this time.

  • Eugenio Suarez 3B | CIN

    Mariners' Eugenio Suarez: Slugs solo blast in win

    Suarez went 1-for-4 with an RBI hit-by-pitch and a solo home run in a win over the Rockies on Saturday.

    Suarez recorded his two RBI in drastically different ways, following up his 367-foot solo shot to center in the fourth inning by getting plunked with the bases loaded in the sixth to drive in a run. The 31-year-old is in the midst of an extended stretch of hot hitting, as he's produced five multi-hit efforts, 13 RBI, a .320 average and an .855 OPS over the 56 plate appearances covering his last 12 games.

  • Ramon Urias 3B | STL

    Orioles' Ramon Urias: Remains out of lineup

    Urias (head) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

    Mateo was hit on the left side of his helmet by a Kendall Graveman fastball that was clocked at 96.2 mph during Saturday's game against the White Sox and wasn't able to continue. The infielder will miss at least one more game with Jorge Mateo lined up at shortstop and Gunnar Henderson back at third base for the series finale.

  • Josh Donaldson 3B | MIL

    Yankees' Josh Donaldson: Likely to return Wednesday

    Donaldson (hamstring) is expected to play in a minor-league rehab game Tuesday before being activated from the injured list Wednesday, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

    Donaldson is already eligible to come off the IL and is taking batting practice ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Twins, per Marly Rivera of ESPN.com, and it'll be just a few more days before he's activated. The 37-year-old should be starting games at the hot corner for New York before the end of the week.

  • Isaac Paredes 3B | HOU

    Rays' Isaac Paredes: Sitting Sunday

    Paredes is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

    Paredes is 4-for-22 over his past six contests and will take a seat for Sunday's series finale in Toronto. Taylor Walls will man the hot corner and bat sixth.
