  • Sean Murphy C | ATL

    Braves' Sean Murphy: Activated from IL

    Atlanta activated Murphy (hip) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

    Murphy is ready to make his 2026 debut following his recovery from his surgery in September to repair a right hip labral tear. He finished his rehab assignment with Triple-A Gwinnett strongly, going 8-for-24 (.333) with four RBI, two doubles and six runs scored over his last six outings. Murphy should slide back into his primary role as Atlanta's designated hitter while Drake Baldwin continues to handle catcher duties. Jonah Heim was designated for assignment by Atlanta in a corresponding move.

  • Cal Raleigh C | SEA

    Mariners' Cal Raleigh: Still out Monday

    Raleigh (side) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against Atlanta.

    Raleigh indicated Sunday that he's feeling better since experiencing right side tightness during Friday's game against the Royals, but he'll be held out of the starting nine for the third straight game while the Mariners await results of the MRI he underwent to gain more information about the severity of his injury. Mitch Garver will receive another turn behind the plate Monday, and the Mariners also recalled Jhonny Pereda from Triple-A Tacoma on Saturday to provide more insurance at catcher while Raleigh remains day-to-day.

  • Phillies' J.T. Realmuto: Not in Monday's lineup

    Realmuto is not in the lineup for Monday's game in Miami.

    Realmuto started each of the previous two contests after returning from the injured list, but he will get a breather for Monday's series finale. Garrett Stubbs will start at catcher and bat eighth for the Phillies.

  • Marlins' Agustin Ramirez: Sent down to Triple-A

    The Marlins optioned Ramirez to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.

    Ramirez has not done enough offensively to make up for his defensive shortcomings, slashing just .230/.318/.345 with two home runs. He will get a reset at Jacksonville while Liam Hicks and Joe Mack handle catching duties for the Marlins.

  • Joe Mack C | MIA

    Marlins' Joe Mack: Officially added to roster

    The Marlins selected Mack's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.

    Mack earned his first big-league promotion after slashing .244/.388/.378 with three home runs and a 20:22 BB:K in his first 24 contests with Jacksonville. According to Christina De Nicola of MLB.com, Mack is in line to start in Monday's series finale versus the Phillies, and the 23-year-old should be in store for ample playing time while sharing reps at catcher with Liam Hicks. Mack is worth a pickup in two-catcher fantasy leagues where he's still available.

  • Austin Wynns C | ATH

    Athletics' Austin Wynns: Hitless in rare start

    Wynns went 0-for-3 with a run scored and a walk in Sunday's win over Cleveland.

    With Shea Langeliers away from the team following the birth of his child, Wynns drew a rare start behind the dish Sunday but was largely unable to capitalize, reaching base only once via a walk in the sixth inning. The 35-year-old has appeared in 13 games this season, going 3-for-35 (.086) with three singles and three walks. With an off day Monday, Langeliers is likely to return to the lineup for Tuesday's series opener in Philadelphia, sending Wynns back to a reserve role.

  • Athletics' Tyler Soderstrom: Blasts fourth homer in win

    Soderstrom went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Sunday's win over the Guardians.

    Soderstrom was the last of three Athletics hitters to homer, driving a solo shot off lefty Parker Messick in the fifth inning to go back-to-back with Zack Gelof. Coming off a breakout campaign with an .820 OPS in 2025, Soderstrom hasn't gotten off to a stellar start in 2026, though he has still produced at times, and Sunday's effort was a step in the right direction. Through 32 games, the left fielder is slashing .221/.304/.426 with four homers, 11 doubles, a triple, 19 RBI, 17 runs and a stolen base.

  • Drew Romo C | CHW

    White Sox's Drew Romo: Lifts homer Sunday

    Romo went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Padres.

    Romo has three homers over his last three games. The catcher is filling the backup role behind Edgar Quero while Kyle Teel (hamstring) remains on the injured list. Romo is batting .300 (3-for-10), with all of his hits being homers so far this season. He's added four RBI, four runs scored and a 5:3 BB:K across 16 plate appearances since he was called up from Triple-A Charlotte on April 25.

  • Jake Rogers C | DET

    Tigers' Jake Rogers: Delivers rare triple Sunday

    Rogers went 2-for-3 with a triple and two runs scored in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Rangers.

    Rogers delivered his first triple of the season and just the seventh of his six-year MLB career. The veteran catcher hasn't delivered many hits in general this year, as he's batting just .182 in a backup role to Dillon Dingler. Rogers doesn't have much fantasy value due to his lack of regular playing time and poor production in general so far.

  • Diamondbacks' Adrian Del Castillo: Goes deep in loss

    Del Castillo entered Sunday's game as a pinch hitter and hit a two-run home run in an 8-4 loss to the Cubs.

    Although Del Castillo homered for the second time in four games, his bat has been largely silent the last two weeks. He entered Sunday on a 3-for-29 (.103) run over the previous eight games. Del Castillo's offense was the main factor in him landing a spot on the 26-man roster, and if he continues to roll along with a .222 average and .671 OPS, playing time could diminish. The club envisioned him being a DH with the possibility of playing some first base, but that was before both Ildemaro Vargas (1.063 OPS in 107 plate appearances) and Jose Fernandez (.775 in 97 PAs) became more reliable sources of offense.
