Betts went 1-for-1 with two walks, three runs and an RBI in Thursday's 19-2 romp over the Athletics.

All of Betts' plate appearances came in the first three innings, with his RBI coming on a single in the second. The Dodgers held a 13-2 lead at that point, so manager Dave Roberts elected to give Betts and a few other regulars some extra rest by pulling them from the contest. Betts has collected at least one RBI in four straight contests and is slashing .339/.397/.51 with two homers, 20 runs, 15 RBI and two stolen bases over his past 15 games.

Abrams went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and a stolen base during Thursday's 5-2 loss to Atlanta.

Abrams notched his sixth home run of the season, tagging left-handed reliever Dylan Lee for a solo shot in the eighth frame. He's been red hot at the plate recently, going 15-for-34 (.441) with two home runs, two doubles and two stolen bases over his last eight appearances. He has a .927 OPS on the season.

Adames went 1-for-4 with a double, a walk and a run scored in Wednesday's 8-7 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Adames drew a walk in the second inning before coming around to score San Francisco's first run. The 29-year-old shortstop also lined a ground-rule double into left-center field during the ninth, marking his third consecutive game with an extra-base hit. Over 13 appearances in May, Adames is slashing .264/.339/.528 with 11 runs scored, six RBI, five doubles and three home runs across 59 plate appearances.

Lawlar pinch hit for Ketel Marte (hip) and went 0-for-1 in Wednesday's 8-7 win over the Giants.

Lawlar finished up the game at second base for Marte, who was removed as a precaution with stiffness in his hip. This was Lawlar's second appearance since his call-up from Triple-A Reno; he served as the starting shortstop Tuesday. Marte is expected to play when the Diamondbacks resume their schedule Friday at home against the Rockies.

Bogaerts went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Angels.

Bogaerts hasn't shown much in the way of power overall in 2025, but he's now smashed three home runs in his last 14 games. Despite batting just .245 during this period, the veteran infielder does have 15 RBI and two stolen bases over his last 49 at-bats. As long as he maintains a spot in the heart of San Diego's batting order, Bogaerts should continue to see plenty of RBI chances going forward.

Abrams went 2-for-3 with a run scored during Wednesday's 5-4 win over Atlanta.

Abrams got on base in four of his five plate appearances, tallying a pair of singles and a pair of walks for his 10th multi-hit performance of the year. The 24-year-old shortstop has been exceptional this season, slashing .311/.375/.525 across 137 plate appearances to go along with five home runs, 18 runs, 15 RBI and eight stolen bases.

Winn went 5-for-8 with a home run, two walks, three RBI and three runs scored as the Cardinals split Wednesday's doubleheader with the Phillies.

Winn did most of his damage in a 4-for-5 performance in the nightcap, which included a solo home run and a pair of RBI singles. The shortstop has hit safely in six of his last seven games, going 10-for-28 (.357) with two homers and seven RBI in that stretch. His big performance Wednesday lifted him to a .281/.371/.465 slash line with five homers, 15 RBI, 23 runs scored and two stolen bases over 33 contests this season. Aside from brief absences for back spasms and an ankle sprain, Winn has unsurprisingly been an everyday presence in the Cardinals' lineup this year.

Trejo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers.

After starting at shortstop in each of the Rockies' previous four games, Trejo will give way to Kyle Farmer in the series finale in Texas. With Ezequiel Tovar (hip) in the midst of a rehab assignment and on track to return from the injured list as soon as this weekend, Trejo is likely to see his playing time take a significant hit in the near future.

Ortiz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

Andruw Monasterio will step in at shortstop while Ortiz takes a seat for the second time in three games, with both absences coming against right-handed pitching. Manager Pat Murphy hasn't confirmed a changing of the guard at shortstop, but it's clear that Ortiz has lost job security after struggling to a .173/.228/.223 slash line through the Brewers' first 43 games of the season.

Abrams went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to Atlanta.

The shortstop belted the first pitch he saw from Spencer Schwellenbach over the fence in right-center field, the 10th leadoff homer of Abrams' career. The blast snapped a 19-game power drought for the 24-year-old, but Abrams has mostly been locked in at the plate since returning from a hip injury in late April. Over his last 18 games, he's slashing .351/.415/.514 with eight extra-base hits, four steals, eight RBI and 11 runs.
