  • Masyn Winn SS | STL

    Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Hitting second Wednesday

    Winn is starting at shortstop and batting second in the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader in Cincinnati.

    Winn had been slated to hit in the two hole before Tuesday's game was rained out, and he'll remain there for the first game of Wednesday's twin bill. It's the first time this season he's batted anywhere other than ninth.

  • Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Finally goes yard Tuesday

    Bogaerts went 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored and three RBI in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Giants.

    The veteran infielder got hold of a hanging slider from Randy Rodriguez in the seventh inning, hooking it down the left-field line for a two-run shot. It was Bogaerts' first homer of 2025 as he looks to escape his early-season doldrums, and through 29 games he's slashing .253/.342/.364 with four steals, eight RBI and 13 runs.

  • Mets' Francisco Lindor: Sends one out Tuesday

    Lindor went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's win over the Diamondbacks.

    Lindor's lone hit of the evening was a two-run blast in the second inning off Eduardo Rodriguez for his first extra-base hit since he last homered April 21. Lindor has now reached safely eight times over his last four games and continues to be productive atop the batting order. He's slashing .302/.364/.491 with six homers, 16 RBI, 21 runs, two steals and an 8:18 BB:K in 132 plate appearances.

  • Bo Bichette SS | NYM

    Blue Jays' Bo Bichette: Swipes bag in loss

    Bichette went 2-for-4 with a double, a steal and a run scored in Tuesday's loss to the Red Sox.

    Bichette knocked a double in the third and came around to score on a home run by Vladimir Guerrero. It was Bichette's first extra-base hit since he had two doubles April 16. Bichette also swiped his third bag of the year, all of which have come since April 18. He leads the team with 36 hits and has nine extra-base hits but remains homerless this year after only totaling four in 81 games last season.

  • Josh H. Smith SS | TEX

    Rangers' Josh Smith: Joins offensive party

    Smith went 3-for-4 with a walk, two RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 15-2 win over the Athletics.

    Smith kicked off the fun of Texas' eight-run sixth inning, leading off with a single. He hit second in the order after serving as a leadoff hitter recently. Rangers manager Bruce Bochy has tinkered with the lineup, hoping to unlock a struggling offense, and it worked Tuesday. Smith, who is currently filling in for the injured Corey Seager (hamstring) at shortstop, is batting .319/.402/.458 with 10 walks, two home runs, six RBI, four steals and 13 runs scored through 24 games.

  • Chase Meidroth SS | CHW

    White Sox's Chase Meidroth: Aiming for weekend return

    Meidroth (thumb) could return during the White Sox's upcoming weekend series against the Astros, MLB.com reports.

    Meidroth landed on the injured list April 21 due to right thumb inflammation. There have been very few updates about his recovery, though everything appears in line for him to return in short order. It's also unclear if he'll engage in a short rehab assignment prior to activation.

  • Dansby Swanson SS | CHC

    Cubs' Dansby Swanson: Breaks slump with home run

    Swanson went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Tuesday's 9-0 win over the Pirates.

    Swanson entered the game 0-for-9 over his last two contests and batting just .181 overall, but he responded to a move down to the No. 8 spot in the order with his fifth home run of the season. The shortstop should maintain his regular role despite the early struggles, and he has the talent to get things going in a hurry.

  • Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Belts solo shot in Tuesday's loss

    Henderson went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 15-3 loss to the Orioles.

    The Orioles didn't have as much firepower as the Yankees on Tuesday, but Henderson managed to supply one run for Baltimore on a solo homer in the seventh inning. It was his third home run of the season, and the 23-year-old shortstop is in the midst of a five-game hitting streak, going 6-for-19 (.316) over that span.

  • C.J. Abrams SS | WAS

    Nationals' CJ Abrams: Knocks four hits

    Abrams went 4-for-5 with a double, a triple, one RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's loss to the Phillies.

    Abrams hit an RBI double in the seventh inning and later scored in the ninth after a single. He also had a triple in the third inning and fell a home run shy of the cycle. Abrams now has five multi-hit games in 17 appearances this season, resulting in a .279/.306/.559 slash line.

  • Trea Turner SS | PHI

    Phillies' Trea Turner: Collects four hits

    Turner went 4-for-4 with an RBI double and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over Washington.

    Turner singled and scored a run in the first inning before knocking an RBI double and scoring again in the eighth. It was his second straight game with at least three hits and his fourth multi-hit performance over his last nine appearances. Turner bumped his season slash line up to .290/.367/.364 with six extra-base hits and 15 runs scored.
