  • Kevin Made SS | WAS

    Nationals' Kevin Made: Out with oblique injury

    Made is on Double-A Harrisburg's injured list due to an oblique injury, Sam Dykstra of MLB Pipeline reports.

    He picked up the injury this spring and is expected back in the coming weeks. Made was just above league average (103 wRC+) at High-A last year despite hitting just one home run. He hit .158 with one home run and two steals in 21 games at Double-A.

  • Nick Allen SS | HOU

    Braves' Nick Allen: Two hits in second straight start

    Allen went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a stolen base in Wednesday's loss to the Dodgers.

    Atlanta's entire lineup has struggled out of the gates en route to an 0-7 start, and while Orlando Arcia's lack of offense has been far from the biggest problem, the veteran has gone 2-for-13 (.54) with zero extra-base hits and five strikeouts in four appearances to begin the year. That's opened the door for Allen to get a look, and the former Athletic has responded with three hits and two steals while making two straight starts at shortstop. Allen is better known for his glove than his bat, but the same could be said for Arcia, and the former is four years younger. It's unlikely Atlanta will give up on Arcia that quickly, but his disappointing .625 OPS in 2024 may have undermined his job security more than anyone expected.

  • Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Not activated Thursday

    Henderson (intercostal) isn't included in the Baltimore lineup for Thursday's game against the Red Sox and isn't expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list until Friday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    The Orioles' decision not to reinstate Henderson from the IL on his first day of eligibility isn't indicative of a setback. Instead, the 1:05 p.m. ET start time for Thursday's contest was likely a major factor, with manager Brandon Hyde telling Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com that Henderson will get a planned rest day after playing five innings in the field Wednesday night in his final rehab game with Triple-A Norfolk. Hyde said that Henderson will rejoin the Orioles in Kansas City ahead of the series opener with the Royals on Friday, and the 23-year-old will likely start at shortstop and bat leadoff in what will be his 2025 MLB debut.

  • Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Delivers another run

    Perdomo went 0-for-2 with an RBI sacrifice fly in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Yankees.

    Perdomo saw an end to a season-opening five-game hit streak but had a run-producing sacrifice fly in the second inning. The ninth-place hitter delivered a run for fifth time in six games and ranks second on the club with seven RBI. Perdomo's line is .350/.348/.400 along with the seven RBI, two runs and a steal over 24 plate appearances.

  • Anthony Volpe SS | NYY

    Yankees' Anthony Volpe: Belts another long ball Wednesday

    Volpe went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run Wednesday in a loss to the Diamondbacks.

    The Yankees trailed 4-0 entering the bottom of the ninth inning, but Volpe gave the team life with his one-out, three-run blast to right field off A.J. Puk. New York wasn't able to complete the comeback, but it was yet another big early-season moment for the young shortstop. Volpe has gone deep four times in his first five games of the campaign -- only one major-leaguer (Eugenio Suarez) has more home runs so far in 2025.

  • Trea Turner SS | PHI

    Phillies' Trea Turner: Collects three hits in return

    Turner went 3-for-5 with an RBI in Wednesday's 5-1 win against the Rockies.

    Turner didn't start in any of the Phillies' previous three games while dealing with back spasms, though he was able to pinch run Monday. That appearance served as a precursor to his return to the lineup and to the field Wednesday, and the veteran shortstop showed no ill effects from the back issue, as he tallied three hits -- including an RBI single in the seventh inning. Turner has reached base safely in five of his first 11 plate appearance to begin the campaign.

  • Carlos Correa SS | HOU

    Twins' Carlos Correa: Breaks out of slump

    Correa went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Wednesday's victory over the White Sox. He ended an 0-for-18 streak to begin the season.

    Correa had been hitting the ball hard his first four games but came up empty before Wednesday. He looks back on track but more importantly is healthy after playing just 86 games last season due to plantar fasciitis in his right foot.

  • Trevor Story SS | BOS

    Red Sox's Trevor Story: Swats first homer

    Story went 3-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 3-0 win over Baltimore.

    Story went deep for the first time in 2025, taking the first pitch he saw in the second inning over the fence in center field. While all eyes were focused on the historically slow start of teammate Rafael Devers, Story's 2-for-15 start (.133) flew under the radar.

  • Reds' Elly De La Cruz: Swipes bag in loss

    De La Cruz went 1-for-4 with a double and a stolen base in Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Texas.

    De La Cruz doubled then stole third base in the fourth inning but was left on base. The steal was De La Cruz's second of the season. Through six games, he's batting .333 (8-for-24) and is the lone Reds regular with an average above .250.

  • Jacob Wilson SS | ATH

    Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Extends hitting streak to seven

    Wilson went 3-for-4 with a double in Wednesday's 10-2 loss to the Cubs.

    Wilson was responsible for three of the Athletics' five hits Wednesday, including his first double of the season in the ninth inning. Wilson has logged a hit in each of the first seven games of the 2025 season and is slashing .375/.375/.542 with three runs scored, one home run and two RBI.
