  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Homer, three hits in win

    Pasquantino went 3-for-4 with solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Guardians.

    Pasquantino opened the scoring with a solo home run in the fourth inning and notched his first three-hit effort of the season. On the year, the first baseman is hitting .212 with two homers, 11 RBI and three runs scored across 58 plate appearances. He also owns a 4:7 BB:K so far, a promising sign that his batting average should trend upward as the season progresses.

  • Josh Bell DH | MIN

    Nationals' Josh Bell: Drives in two runs Saturday

    Bell went 1-for-4 with a two-run single in Saturday's 7-6 loss to Miami.

    Bell tied things up in the third inning, when his single to left field brought Keibert Ruiz and James Wood across home plate. Bell has gone 3-for-11 with three walks, three runs scored, one home run and five RBI across his last three starts.

  • Giants' Wilmer Flores: Logs four RBI in loss

    Flores went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and two additional RBI during Saturday's 8-4 loss to the Yankees.

    Flores tied the game at two runs apiece with a 394-foot, two-run home run to right-center field during the second inning. The 33-year-old is currently tied for the league lead in homers this season, hitting six over 14 games. The veteran infielder also lined a two-out, two-run single into right field and is up to 19 RBI on the season, ranking second behind Aaron Judge (20). Flores is slashing .275/.302/.627 in 53 plate appearances so far in 2025.

  • Blue Jays' Anthony Santander: Belts first homer of season

    Santander went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Orioles.

    Santander had yet to record his first homer as a Blue Jay, but a return to Camden Yards proved to be what he needed to tick that achievement off his list. After grounding out in his first at-bat, Santander took a fastball from Tomoyuki Sugano deep to left-center field for a 409-foot solo home run. Santander has gone 8-for-39 with three runs scored, five walks, one home run, two RBI and 11 strikeouts over his last 10 games.

  • Jesse Winker DH | NYM

    Mets' Jesse Winker: Losing work to Marte

    Winker isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Athletics.

    Saturday will be the fourth straight game Winker has missed following a 5-for-24 start at the plate. All of his reps have been going to Starling Marte, who will work as New York's DH on Saturday while batting fifth.

  • Joc Pederson DH | TEX

    Rangers' Joc Pederson: Mired in slump

    Pederson went 0-for-3 with a walk in Friday's 5-3 loss to Seattle.

    Pederson extended a hitless streak to 18 at-bats and is batting .086 (.334 OPS) for his new team. After a career-best season in 2024 while with Arizona, he gambled on free agency and won, getting a two-year deal with the Rangers. Texas viewed him as the answer at designated hitter, a position from which it got a league-low .584 OPS in 2024, but it has not yet worked out. Pederson has just one barrel (3.8 barrel percentage) and a career-worst 30.8 hard-hit percentage.

  • Gavin Sheets RF | SD

    Padres' Gavin Sheets: Strong start in platoon role

    Sheets went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk Friday against Colorado.

    Sheets continued to help pour it on for the Padres in the seventh inning, blasting a 371-foot homer to right field to make it an 8-0 game. The lefty-hitting corner outfielder regularly starts on the bench and yields to Yuli Gurriel when San Diego is up against a southpaw, which limits his overall fantasy appeal, but Sheets is batting a strong .333 with two long balls, two doubles and eight RBI over 36 at-bats to open the campaign.

  • Josh Bell DH | MIN

    Nationals' Josh Bell: Smacks second homer of 2025

    Bell went 1-for-4 with a walk and a two-run homer in Friday's 7-4 win over the Marlins.

    Bell smacked his first home run since March 30 in the sixth inning, when he took the first pitch from Edward Cabrera deep to right field for a 395-foot, two-run home run. Bell has reached base safely in eight straight games, and over that span he has gone 6-for-24 with seven walks, five runs scored, one home run and three RBI.

  • Marcell Ozuna DH | PIT

    Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Belts third homer

    Ozuna went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Rays.

    Ozuna reduced the deficit to three runs in the eighth inning when he drove a 92-mph fastball from Edwin Uceta deep for a 425-foot solo homer to left-center field. Ozuna has logged home runs in back-to-back games and has three homers in his last six games. Over that six-game span, he's gone 10-for-25 with two walks, seven runs and six RBI.

  • Bryan Ramos 3B | BAL

    White Sox's Bryan Ramos: Activated, optioned to Triple-A

    The White Sox reinstated Ramos (elbow) from the injured list Friday and optioned him to Triple-A Charlotte.

    Ramos landed on the injured list at the start of the regular season due to a right elbow strain. He now appears to be fully recovered from the injury and is ready to begin playing regularly at Charlotte. The 23-year-old slashed .202/.252/.333 in 107 MLB plate appearances last season but showed signs of improvement in spring training, finishing the Cactus League slate with a .745 OPS.
