  • Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Ends drought

    Perdomo went 1-for-2 with two walks, an RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Mets.

    Perdomo's first-inning single snapped an 0-for-13 run. Following a breakout in 2025 when he had 20 home runs and 100 RBI, Perdomo's scuffled to open this season. He's slashing .179/.277/.308 with four RBI through 12 games; at this point last season, the shortstop slashed .293/.347/.415 with 12 RBI.

  • Pirates' Yordany De Los Santos: To 7-day IL

    High-A Greensboro placed De Los Santos on the 7-day injured list April 4 with an undisclosed injury.

    The 21-year-old infielder hit .375 with a home run and two steals in two games prior to suffering the injury. De Los Santos logged a .699 OPS in 116 games at Single-A in 2025.

  • Angel Martinez LF | CLE

    Guardians' Angel Martinez: Big day in big win

    Martinez went 4-for-5 with a double, a grand slam and a stolen base in Wednesday's 10-2 rout of the Royals.

    Getting the start in left field and batting second against southpaw Cole Ragans (thumb), Martinez's big blow came in the eighth inning, when he capped a five-run frame by dropping a slider from right-hander Steven Cruz into the right-field seats with the bases loaded. It was Martinez's first homer and first RBI of the year, and after a 3-for-21 (.143) start to the season he's racked up six hits in the last two contests.

  • Javier Sanoja 3B | MIA

    Marlins' Javier Sanoja: Back to bench vs. righty starter

    Sanoja is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds.

    Sanoja will hit the bench after he had been included in the lineup at third base in each of the Marlins' last four games -- all against left-handed starting pitchers. Graham Pauley will settle back in at the hot corner Wednesday in place of Sanoja, who is likely to remain stuck in the short side of a platoon.

  • Otto Lopez SS | MIA

    Marlins' Otto Lopez: Getting breather Wednesday

    Lopez is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Reds.

    Lopez had been listed in the Marlins' initial lineup, but that was a clerical error as he had been scheduled for a day off, per Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald. Leo Jimenez will cover shortstop and bat eighth for Miami.

  • Anthony Volpe SS | NYY

    Yankees' Anthony Volpe: Could start rehab games next week

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Wednesday that Volpe (shoulder) will "potentially" begin a rehab assignment next week, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

    Volpe is currently at extended spring training in Florida but could travel back with the Yankees after their series in Tampa Bay this weekend. The shortstop hasn't played in a game setting since last October's left shoulder labrum surgery, so his rehab assignment won't be brief. Still, if all goes well, Volpe could be ready for his season debut around the start of May.

  • Giants' Casey Schmitt: Back on bench Wednesday

    Schmitt is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.

    After a tight back kept him out of action for four straight games, Schmitt returned to the lineup at designated hitter in Tuesday's 6-0 win and went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and a run scored. Prior to Tuesday, Schmitt had made each of his seven starts this season at first base, but the Giants likely won't have much of a need for him at that position now after Rafael Devers recently received clearance to play the field on a more regular basis. Schmitt could be ticketed for more of a utility infield role moving forward.

  • Amed Rosario 3B | NYY

    Yankees' Amed Rosario: Another start after two-homer game

    Rosario will start at third base and bat eighth in Wednesday's contest versus the Athletics.

    Rosario earned another start by slugging two home runs in Tuesday's victory over the Athletics. Ryan McMahon will slide over to shortstop in place of Jose Caballero, who is getting a day off Wednesday.

  • Carlos Correa SS | HOU

    Astros' Carlos Correa: Sitting out again with illness

    Correa is absent from the lineup for a second straight day Wednesday in Colorado due to an illness, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

    Correa wasn't at the ballpark at all Tuesday, but he was present Wednesday and went through a light workout. He could be available off the bench for the series finale, but Correa will aim to return to the Astros' starting lineup Friday in Seattle after his team is idle Thursday. Isaac Paredes will handle third base duties again Wednesday.

  • Colt Emerson SS | SEA

    Mariners' Colt Emerson: Rejoins Triple-A lineup

    Emerson (foot) started at shortstop and went 2-for-3 with a walk, two stolen bases and an RBI on Tuesday in Triple-A Tacoma's 1-0 win over Sugar Land.

    Emerson suffered a right foot injury while playing in the first game of a doubleheader Saturday, but he needed just a couple of days of rest and recovery to move past the issue. The 20-year-old infielder likely isn't far away from making his big-league debut, after he agreed last week with Seattle on an eight-year, $95 million contract extension. Through eight games with Tacoma this season, Emerson is slashing .310/.355/.483 with three extra-base hits across 32 plate appearances.
