  • Zachary Neto SS | LAA

    Angels' Zach Neto: Blazing hot in rehab stint

    Neto (shoulder) has gone 4-for-5 with two home runs, a double, two walks, six runs and four RBI over his past two minor-league rehab games with Triple-A Salt Lake.

    Neto is rehabbing from right shoulder surgery, and he seems just about ready to make his season debut with the Angels. The third-year shortstop has slashed .320/.452/.760 with three long balls, two doubles, 10 runs, six RBI and a stolen base overall across 31 plate appearances during his rehab assignment. Just as importantly, Neto has been able to play shortstop in each of his past two games and in three of his past four contests after being limited to a designated-hitter role in his first three appearances with Salt Lake.

  • Dansby Swanson SS | CHC

    Cubs' Dansby Swanson: Racks up four RBI in victory

    Swanson went 2-for-4 with a home run, four RBI, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 10-6 win over Texas.

    Swanson first cracked a solo homer off Rangers left-hander Patrick Corbin to get the Cubs on the board in the second inning. The veteran shortstop then put Chicago in front 4-3 with a sacrifice fly in the fourth frame, and he gave the club an 8-6 lead with a two-run single in the eighth. Although Swanson is batting just .226 over 53 at-bats, he's already up to four big flies, 11 RBI, nine runs scored and two steals in 14 outings.

  • Bobby Witt SS | KC

    Royals' Bobby Witt: Scores two runs Tuesday

    Witt went 1-for-3 with one walk and two runs in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Twins.

    Witt was responsible for both of the Royals' runs Tuesday. He was able to reach third base in the eighth inning on two separate errors by Minnesota, and the superstar shortstop was brought home on a Vinnie Pasquantino groundout for what turned out to be the game-winning run. Witt has registered a hit in four of his last five outings and has started the season slashing .273/.347/.477 with three stolen bases, four doubles, one home run and five RBI across 49 plate appearances.

  • Bo Bichette SS | NYM

    Blue Jays' Bo Bichette: Drives in three runs

    Bichette went 3-for-4 with three RBI and a walk in Tuesday's win over Boston.

    Bichette knocked a two-run single in the sixth inning and added another RBI base hit in the eighth. He's already produced five multi-hit performances through 12 games this season; it took him 20 games to reach that mark to begin 2024. Bichette is now slashing .314/.375/.392 with four extra-base hits and seven RBI through 56 plate appearances.

  • Mets' Francisco Lindor: Cracks first homer of 2025

    Lindor went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, two runs scored and two RBI in Tuesday's 10-5 win over the Marlins.

    Lindor finally registered his first home run of the 2025 season Tuesday, taking Connor Gillispie deep to right field in the first inning. Lindor hit a sacrifice fly in the seventh frame to register his first multi-RBI game of the season while extending the Mets' lead to five runs. He is on a seven-game hitting streak and has gone 9-for-26 with three walks, two doubles, one home run and four RBI over that span.

  • Padres' Jose Iglesias: First career start in outfield

    Iglesias is starting in left field and batting seventh against the Athletics on Tuesday.

    Iglesias has never started in the outfield during his professional career, so Tuesday will be a first for the 35-year-old. With three of the Padres' possible left fielders on the bench because a lefty is on the mound and with Brandon Lockridge starting in center due to Jackson Merrill's hamstring injury, the door opened for Iglesias to head to left field.

  • Brooks Lee SS | MIN

    Twins' Brooks Lee: Rehab moving to Triple-A

    The Twins transferred Lee's (back) rehab assignment to Triple-A St. Paul, and he's starting at second base and batting second in Tuesday's game, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

    The 24-year-old will move his rehab assignment to the highest level of the minors after going 0-for-3 with two strikeouts in his one appearance with Single-A Fort Myers. Lee played seven innings defensively in that game and will likely need to play a few full games in the field before being cleared to join the Twins.

  • Tigers' Kevin McGonigle: Lands on injured list

    High-A West Michigan placed McGonigle (ankle) on its 7-day injured list Tuesday.

    McGonigle suffered an ankle injury in his season debut Friday and will miss some time as a result. The infielder missed extended action to close out the 2024 season while recovering from a broken hand.

  • C.J. Abrams SS | WAS

    Nationals' CJ Abrams: Remains out Tuesday

    Abrams (thigh) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Dodgers.

    Abrams' right thigh tightened up on him during Sunday's contest against the Diamondbacks and he has now missed two straight starts. The 24-year-old is considered day-to-day. Paul DeJong will cover shortstop again Tuesday, and Amed Rosario will play third base.

  • Mets' Francisco Lindor: Reaches milestone in Monday's win

    Lindor went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Monday's win over the Marlins.

    His third knock of the night, a leadoff single in the fifth inning, was the 1,500th of Lindor's career. The 31-year-old shortstop has hit safely in six straight games, batting .364 (8-for-22) during his heater with two doubles, two RBI, two steals and five runs scored, but he's still looking for his first homer of 2025.
