Pena went 2-for-5 with a double and three RBI in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Royals.

Pena drove in a run on a single in the fifth inning and then added a two-run double in the sixth. The shortstop snapped a 14-game hitting streak Friday but has now hit safely in 16 of 17 games dating back to April 8. On the year, he's slashing .255/.327/.388 with three home runs, 11 RBI, 13 runs scored and five steals across 110 plate appearances.

Ahmed started at shortstop and went 0-for-3 in Saturday's 3-2 loss to San Francisco.

Ahmed made a second start -- both coming against lefties -- since having his contract selected from Triple-A Round Rock. He and Josh Smith have split shortstop duties while Corey Seager (hamstring) recovers. Ahmed is 0-for-5 with two strikeouts.

Correa went 2-for-5 with one run scored and two RBI in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Angels.

Correa got the Twins on the board in the first inning on an RBI single, and he extended the lead to four in the second when he brought Byron Buxton home on a single to left field. Correa has struggled at the dish this season, but he's 3-for-7 with two walks and three RBI through the first two games of this series.

Neto went 3-for-4 with a solo homer in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Twins.

Neto gave the Angels their only run of the game when he took Simeon Woods Richardson deep to left-center field in the third inning for a solo home run. Neto has recorded three hits in two of his last three games, and over that span he has gone 7-for-13 with two solo home runs.

Rocchio isn't in the lineup for the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Red Sox, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

After going 0-for-3 with three strikeouts in his last game, Rocchio will get a chance to regroup during the first half of Saturday's activities. Gabriel Arias will shift to shortstop as a result, opening up second base for Daniel Schneemann.

Wilson went 3-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Friday's 6-5 win over the White Sox.

The rookie shortstop got hold of a Sean Burke slider on the inner part of the plate to lead off the fifth inning with a solo shot. It was Wilson's third homer in 25 games to begin the season, an impressive showing considering he managed only seven home runs in 103 games across all levels in 2024. His ability to make contact is still the driving factor for his fantasy value, however -- Wilson is slashing .347/.354/.500 through 99 plate appearances with one steal, 14 RBI and 15 runs.

Amaya isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Athletics.

Amaya has been in a notable slump at the plate recently, going 0-for-13 over his last nine games and logging just three hits since the start of April. He'll give way to Brooks Baldwin at shortstop Friday, creating an opening in the lineup for Nick Maton to serve as Chicago's DH.

Rocchio is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Red Sox.

The absence ends a stretch of five consecutive starts for Rocchio, who went 3-for-15 with a stolen base, three runs and one RBI during that stretch. Gabriel Arias will move to shortstop while Daniel Schneemann receives a start at the keystone.

Brito will be sidelined 8-to-12 weeks after having surgery Friday to repair a high-grade ligament sprain in his right thumb, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

Brito suffered the injury last week while sliding into a base at Triple-A Columbus. The 23-year-old infielder had been off to a nice start this season with Columbus, slashing .291/.406/.491 with two home runs, four steals and a 10:11 K:BB.

Witt went 2-for-8 with a double, three runs scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Thursday's doubleheader sweep of the Rockies.

Witt's hit streak is now up to 16 games -- he's gone 20-for-58 (.345) with a .938 OPS in that span. The star shortstop has boosted his slash line to .303/.377/.465 with two homers, 10 RBI, 18 runs scored and eight stolen bases through his first 114 plate appearances this year.
