Winker went 2-for-3 with a walk and a double in Sunday's loss to the Reds.

Facing the club he made his big-league debut with in 2017, Winker continues his hot start to the season but wasn't able to generate any production outside of his OBP. The 30-year-old has started all three games in left field for the Nationals so far while Eddie Rosario gets a look in center field, and Winker's 5-for-11 showing with a 2:3 BB:K should keep him in the lineup, even if he has only one run and one RBI to show for it so far.

Morel went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 9-5 win over the Rangers.

Morel got the show started for the Cubs, clubbing a three-run homer off Texas starter Jon Gray in the top of the first inning, giving Chicago an early 3-0 lead. The 24-year-old has opened the season red-hot, going 5-for-14 with a homer, a triple, three RBI and three runs scored.

Blackmon is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks, Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette reports.

Blackmon went 3-for-11 with a double, a triple, three RBI, two runs and a stolen base in the first three games of the season, but he'll step out of the lineup Sunday. Jake Cave will take over in right field.

McCutchen is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

McCutchen went 0-for-9 with two walks, an RBI and five strikeouts in the first two games of the season but finds himself on the bench Sunday for the second straight contest. Bryan Reynolds will rest his legs as the designated hitter with Edward Olivares and Connor Joe starting in the corner outfield spots.

Harper is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

The veteran slugger remained in the game Saturday after taking a tumble over the camera well railing attempting to field a foul ball, but he won't be in the lineup for Sunday's series finale. Manager Rob Thomson said it's a scheduled off day, per Matt Gelb of The Athletic, so Harper is apparently fine and should be back in the lineup Monday. He didn't see much action down the stretch in spring training due to a back issue and is off to a slow start, going 0-for-6 with two walks, a run and a stolen base in the first two games of the season. Alec Bohm will shift to first base while Edmundo Sosa receives a start at the hot corner.

Blackmon went 2-for-5 with a double, two RBI, one run and a stolen base against Arizona in a 6-4 victory Saturday.

Blackmon has batted out of the leadoff spot in all three games for Colorado thus far, and he helped ignite the team's offense Saturday with a pair of hits. His big knock was a two-run double in the fifth inning that was part of a five-run outburst for the Rockies. Blackmon also swiped a big in the win, but that's unlikely to be a common occurrence, as the 37-year-old hasn't stolen more than four bases in a season since 2018.

Pederson isn't in the Diamondbacks' lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

After going 4-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored during Friday's contest, Pederson will retreat to the bench against left-hander Austin Gomber. Blaze Alexander will get the start as Arizona's DH and bat seventh.

McCutchen isn't in the Pirates' lineup for Saturday's contest against Miami, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

McCutchen will get a breather Saturday despite the Marlins sending the left-handed Ryan Weathers to start on the mound. The 37-year-old is 0-for-9 to begin the season, and his absence will give Edward Olivares a chance to start at DH and bat fourth.

Pederson went 4-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's win over the Rockies.

Making his Diamondbacks debut after taking a seat Opening Day against lefty Kyle Freeland, Pederson immediately made an impact. He ripped a double in the first inning followed by an RBI single in the third. Three of his four hits registered over 98 mph off the bat, including a pair over 100 mph. Arizona has the depth to sit Pederson against lefties often, but his ceiling against righties will keep him relevant in most fantasy formats.

The Mets optioned Martinez to Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.

Since Martinez didn't sign with the Mets until last week, he didn't have sufficient time to complete his hitting progression in spring training, so he'll be left off the 26-man active roster ahead of Friday's season opener versus the Brewers. The Mets haven't indicated if Martinez will immediately report to Syracuse for the start of its season Friday, or if he'll continue to see live at-bats at the Mets' spring training facility in Florida. Either way, Martinez will join the Mets and serve as their everyday designated hitter once he spends around 10 days in the minors compiling at-bats, according to Joel Sherman of the New York Post.
