Sean Murphy C | ATL
Braves' Sean Murphy: Goes deep again Tuesday
Murphy went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's loss to the Cardinals.
Murphy got Atlanta on the board with a solo blast in the fourth. It was Murphy's sixth big blast of the season in just his 12th game, and he currently leads the team in home runs. Murphy's batting average continues to hover around the Mendoza Line and currently sits at .209, but he's made up for it so far with his power and sports a .948 OPS.

Korey Lee C | CHW
White Sox's Korey Lee: Swelling going down
Manager Will Venable said Tuesday that the swelling in Lee's ankle is nearly entirely gone, MLB.com reports.
Lee has been on the injured list since April 10 due to a left ankle sprain. It's unclear what the next steps in his recovery will be, or how quickly he can return. Lee was already stuck in a backup role prior to Edgar Quero's promotion, so his spot on the big-league roster could be in jeopardy once healthy.

Edgar Quero C | CHW
White Sox's Edgar Quero: Tallies three hits
Quero went 3-for-4 with a run scored Tuesday against the Twins.
Quero started for the fourth time in six games since his promotion to the majors and has most recently hit fourth and fifth in the lineup. He has earned that key role quickly, collecting seven hits across his first 19 at-bats. Quero also scored the first run of his career Tuesday.

Will Smith C | LAD
Dodgers' Will Smith: Sensational start continues Tuesday
Smith went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional RBI and a walk in Tuesday's extra-inning loss to the Cubs.
Smith launched a homer, his third of the year, in the sixth inning to cut into Chicago's lead and make it a 7-5 game. The hard-hitting backstop does receive the occasional day off, but he's been sensational at the dish early in 2025. Smith is slashing .350/.453/.567 with four doubles, 15 RBI, eight runs scored and one stolen base through 75 trips to the plate, and his RBI upside in fantasy should remain among the elites in a star-studded Dodgers lineup.

Miguel Amaya C | CHC
Cubs' Miguel Amaya: Hits key home run Tuesday
Amaya went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's 11-10, 10-inning win over the Dodgers.
Amaya delivered an RBI single in the bottom of the first inning but saved his best for last Tuesday night. The catcher's ninth-inning home run with two outs tied the game at 10 before the Cubs prevailed in extras. Amaya has been a solid producer with a .278 average, .798 OPS and two long balls across 15 games as he continues to split playing time with Carson Kelly.

Agustin Ramirez C | MIA
Marlins' Agustin Ramirez: Stays hot Tuesday
Ramirez went 3-for-3 with two doubles, one RBI and a walk in Tuesday's win over the Reds.
Ramirez once again sparked Miami's offense, this time with a pair of doubles. He was also caught stealing and has attempted a stolen base in each of his first two MLB appearances. The rookie catcher could provide valuable speed at his position; Ramirez stole 53 bases in 63 attempts over his minor-league career, including 22 in 24 attempts last season. He is 5-for-6 with three doubles in his first two big-league games.
