  • Bobby Witt SS | KC

    Royals' Bobby Witt: Scores two runs Tuesday

    Witt went 1-for-3 with one walk and two runs in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Twins.

    Witt was responsible for both of the Royals' runs Tuesday. He was able to reach third base in the eighth inning on two separate errors by Minnesota, and the superstar shortstop was brought home on a Vinnie Pasquantino groundout for what turned out to be the game-winning run. Witt has registered a hit in four of his last five outings and has started the season slashing .273/.347/.477 with three stolen bases, four doubles, one home run and five RBI across 49 plate appearances.

  • Bo Bichette SS | TOR

    Blue Jays' Bo Bichette: Drives in three runs

    Bichette went 3-for-4 with three RBI and a walk in Tuesday's win over Boston.

    Bichette knocked a two-run single in the sixth inning and added another RBI base hit in the eighth. He's already produced five multi-hit performances through 12 games this season; it took him 20 games to reach that mark to begin 2024. Bichette is now slashing .314/.375/.392 with four extra-base hits and seven RBI through 56 plate appearances.

  • Brooks Lee SS | MIN

    Twins' Brooks Lee: Rehab moving to Triple-A

    The Twins transferred Lee's (back) rehab assignment to Triple-A St. Paul, and he's starting at second base and batting second in Tuesday's game, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

    The 24-year-old will move his rehab assignment to the highest level of the minors after going 0-for-3 with two strikeouts in his one appearance with Single-A Fort Myers. Lee played seven innings defensively in that game and will likely need to play a few full games in the field before being cleared to join the Twins.

  • Tigers' Kevin McGonigle: Lands on injured list

    High-A West Michigan placed McGonigle (ankle) on its 7-day injured list Tuesday.

    McGonigle suffered an ankle injury in his season debut Friday and will miss some time as a result. The infielder missed extended action to close out the 2024 season while recovering from a broken hand.

  • Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Swipes two bags in victory

    Henderson went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, two runs and two stolen bases in Monday's 5-1 win against the Diamondbacks.

    Henderson had gone just 1-for-13 with seven strikeouts over three games after being activated off the injured list April 4, but he broke out of that slump with his two-hit performance Monday. The talented young shortstop padded his stat line with a pair of thefts, while the double was his first extra-base hit of the campaign. Henderson belted 37 homers and stole 21 bases during the regular season last year, so it's reasonable to expect his initial struggles to be temporary.

  • Trey Sweeney SS | DET

    Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Sitting against left-hander

    Sweeney is absent from the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Yankees.

    Southpaw Carlos Rodon is on the hill for the Yankees, so the left-handed hitting Sweeney will grab a seat. Javier Baez is at shortstop and batting sixth Monday.

  • Twins' Danny De Andrade: Healthy to begin 2025 season

    De Andrade (ankle) has appeared in each of High-A Cedar Rapids' first three games of the season, going 4-for-9 with a double and a run.

    De Andrade didn't play after the middle of May last season while he recovered from a left ankle sprain, but he's entered the 2025 campaign with a clean bill of health.

  • Tigers' Kevin McGonigle: Suffers ankle injury

    McGonigle suffered an ankle injury and is expected to miss time, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.

    The severity of the injury hasn't been determined, according to the report. McGonigle was 2-for-5 with two doubles in his first game for High-A West Michigan. His 2024 season was cut short in early August due to a broken hand that required surgery.

  • Corey Seager SS | TEX

    Rangers' Corey Seager: Swats first homer of 2025

    Seager went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over the Rays.

    Seager pushed the Rangers ahead in the sixth with a solo shot to right for his first home run and first extra base hit of the year. The lefty slugger has just two hits over his last 16 at-bats and a .179 batting average in the early going.

  • Taylor Walls 3B | TB

    Rays' Taylor Walls: Swipes bag in loss

    Walls went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Sunday's loss to the Rangers.

    Walls led off the fifth with a base knock and stole second for his second theft of the year. Walls has just three hits in 26 plate appearances thus far, as his hitting woes from past seasons have carried over into 2025 early on.
