O'Hearn went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 9-1 win over Cleveland.

O'Hearn extended Baltimore's lead to 6-1 in the eighth inning with a 396-foot blast off Triston McKenzie, his second homer of the year. The 31-year-old O'Hearn has gone 4-for-9 in his last three games, boosting his slash line to .302/.388/.512 with seven runs scored, two RBI and a stolen base through his first 49 plate appearances this season.

The Twins acquired Bride from the Marlins on Wednesday in exchange for cash considerations, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

The 29-year-old was designated for assignment by Miami on Tuesday, and Minnesota elected to trade for him with Willi Castro (oblique) and Matt Wallner (hamstring) being the latest Twins players to suffer injuries. Bride went 4-for-40 with 15 strikeouts through 12 games for the Marlins this season, but he was productive in 272 plate appearances last year with 11 homers and an .818 OPS. Therefore, it's a good opportunity for the Twins to add some much-needed infield depth with upside.

Rice is not in the Yankees' starting lineup against the Royals on Wednesday.

Rice has received three starts against left-handed pitchers this season, but he'll take a seat Wednesday with the Royals sending southpaw Kris Bubic to the mound. With Rice beginning the contest in the dugout, Aaron Judge will serve as the designated hitter while Cody Bellinger, Trent Grisham and Jasson Dominguez man the outfield. Rice has started the season slashing .273/.385/.618 with 10 walks, two stolen bases, 12 runs scored, five home runs and seven RBI in 65 plate appearances.

Polanco (side) said Wednesday that he's been taking right-handed swings off a tee and is "getting closer" to being able to bat righty in a game, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.

The switch hitter has been able to hit only left-handed over the last week-plus due to lingering side soreness, which has also limited him to DH duties. While Polanco didn't offer a specific timetable for his return to the lineup versus lefties, it sounds like it's coming soon. The next southpaw the Mariners are scheduled to face is the Blue Jays' Easton Lucas on Sunday.

Alvarez is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest in St. Louis.

Alvarez homered in Tuesday's victory over the Cardinals but will get some rest for Wednesday's matinee. Jose Altuve is in the designated hitter spot for the series finale, while Chas McCormick will play left field.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Tuesday that Yoshida (shoulder) is not close to a rebab assignment, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

Yoshida continues to rehab in Fort Myers and is working on a throwing program. He's not going to be ready for duty in the majors until he's able to make throws from the outfield.

Santander went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer in Tuesday's win over Atlanta.

Santander broke the game open with a three-run blast off Spencer Schwellenbach in the fifth inning to put Toronto up 6-1. It was Santander's second long ball of the season and his first at home as a member of the Blue Jays. Though his average currently sits at just .211, Santander now has a hit in six straight games, including homers in two of his last four, and has struck out once over his last 17 at-bats.

Rooker went 2-for-4 with three runs scored in Tuesday's victory over the White Sox. He started in left field. It was the second game he's played in the outfield this season.

Rooker is off to a slow start to the season by hitting .205/.256/.667 but does have four home runs, so he may be heating up at the plate. Rooker didn't play in the outfield last season after May due to a right forearm injury that required surgery in the offseason. He's mostly played DH this season but could soon qualify in the outfield again after playing just 14 games in the field last season. However, Rooker's usage in the outfield could be bigger news for Nick Kurtz, the top prospect tearing it up at Triple-A, as moving Rooker to the outfield could allow the A's to call up Kurtz to play at DH and 1B.

Alvarez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Tuesday against the Cardinals.

Alvarez crushed a 419-foot blast to deep center field in the eighth inning, tacking on an insurance run to give the Astros a 2-0 lead. While Alvarez got off to a dreadful start to the year, he's certainly beginning to pick up some steam lately. Over his last nine outings, the All-Star slugger is hitting .310 (9-for-29) with two homers, six RBI, seven walks and one stolen base.

Pederson is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels.

Pederson is hitless in his past 24 at-bats and has gone 3-for-49 through 14 games this season. Jonah Heim will serve as the designated hitter against Halos lefty Yusei Kikuchi while Kyle Higashioka starts behind the plate.
