  • Mets' Francisco Lindor: Flashes skills in win

    Lindor went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a second run scored and a stolen base in Friday's 7-2 win over the Cubs.

    The All-Star shortstop remains locked in at the plate, taking Jameson Taillon deep on the right-hander's third pitch of the game to kick off a four-homer barrage by the Mets. Over his last 18 contests, Lindor has produced eight multi-hit performances, fueling a .347/.424/.627 slash line over that stretch with six homers, three steals, 15 runs and 17 RBI.

  • Jared Triolo 3B | PIT

    Pirates' Jared Triolo: Smacks first homer of 2025

    Triolo went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's 2-1 win over Atlanta.

    Triolo, who entered Friday's game 2-for-25 over his last 11 games, extended the Pirates' lead to two runs in the sixth inning when he took Bryce Elder deep to left field for a solo shot. Triolo has been struggling at the plate as of late, but he should continue to see plenty of starts at shortstop due to Isiah Kiner-Falefa (hamstring) being on the 10-day injured list.

  • Ezequiel Tovar SS | COL

    Rockies' Ezequiel Tovar: Resumes baseball activity

    Tovar (hip) has resumed batting and fielding practice as well as running the bases, MLB.com reports.

    Tovar has been sidelined since April 16 due to a hip injury that has been nagging him for much of the season. He has now cleared a significant milestone in his recovery, and the shortstop will rehab with Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday, per Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com.

  • Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Two more hits Thursday

    Perdomo went 2-for-3 with a double in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Dodgers.

    Nothing has been able to slow down Perdomo, whether he's hitting at the top of the order in place of an injured Ketel Marte or back down in his familiar ninth spot. Since Marte's return, Perdomo is batting .375 (9-for-24) with a .964 OPS from the bottom of the order. While filling in for Marte, he had a 1.101 OPS from the leadoff spot and an .836 OPS when hitting second. Perdomo has generated more barrels and harder contact in 2025 while getting the ball in the air more often than he had in previous seasons.

  • Alan Trejo SS | COL

    Rockies' Alan Trejo: Not starting Game 2

    Trejo isn't in the lineup for the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against the Tigers.

    After going 0-for-2 with a sacrifice fly in the early game, Trejo will get a chance to rest during the nightcap while Kyle Farmer starts at shortstop and bats seventh.

  • Willy Adames SS | SF

    Giants' Willy Adames: Tallies two hits in victory

    Adames went 2-for-4 with a double and a walk in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Cubs.

    Adames singled in the first inning and knocked a double into left field during the fifth, delivering his second multi-hit performance over his last five games. The 29-year-old shortstop has gone 7-for-20 with two home runs and two doubles in that span, rebounding from an early-season slump after recording a .185 batting average over his first 20 appearances. Adames is now slashing .230/.314/.358 with 22 runs scored, 19 RBI and an 18:40 BB:K across 169 plate appearances.

  • Trea Turner SS | PHI

    Phillies' Trea Turner: Snaps homerless skid in rout

    Turner went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's win over the Rays.

    Turner snapped a 24-game homerless skid Wednesday, also registering his sixth multi-hit game in his last nine outings. During this nine-game stretch, the All-Star shortstop has gone a sizzling 18-for-39 (.462) with two doubles, five RBI, nine runs scored and two stolen bases. Turner is now up to 10 multi-hit efforts on the season.

  • C.J. Abrams SS | WAS

    Nationals' CJ Abrams: Getting busy on basepaths

    Abrams went 3-for-6 with a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's 8-6 loss to the Guardians.

    The shortstop is up to eight steals in 10 attempts on the season, but half of those attempts have come in the last five games. Abrams has also reached base in 13 straight contests, giving him more opportunities to use his legs -- during that hot streak he's batting .340 (18-for-53) with five walks and three HBPs. His power stroke, however, has gone quiet. Abrams has yet to hit a home run since returning from a hip issue in late April, and after slugging a career-high 20 homers in 2024, the 24-year-old has gone yard only twice through his first 25 games in 2025.

  • Liover Peguero SS | PIT

    Pirates' Liover Peguero: First start since recall

    Peguero went 1-for-3 against the Cardinals on Tuesday.

    Peguero was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday but had not appeared in a game in any capacity until Tuesday. He's likely to continue to back up Adam Frazier and Jared Triolo at second base and shortstop, respectively.

  • Dansby Swanson SS | CHC

    Cubs' Dansby Swanson: Scores twice in loss

    Swanson went 2-for-4 with a walk and two runs scored in Tuesday's 14-5 extra-innings loss to the Giants.

    Swanson and Kyle Tucker were the only Cubs with multiple hits as a ninth inning rally ultimately ended in defeat. The Chicago shortstop extended his hitting streak to eight games, during which time he's gone 14-for-30 with three home runs, five RBI and 10 runs scored. Swanson was batting just .181 with a .577 OPS before the recent hot streak, but he's now got more respectable .240 and .732 figures, respectively.
