  • Orioles' Jackson Holliday: Imaging returns clean

    Holliday (wrist) said Friday that he underwent an MRI, CT scan and X-rays that came back clean and will be shut down from baseball activities for about a week, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    It's encouraging news for the 22-year-old second baseman after he exited Tuesday's rehab game with Triple-A Norfolk due to right hand discomfort, which is the same hand in which he underwent surgery for a fractured hamate bone in February. The shutdown period and subsequent rehab assignment will likely extend Holliday's absence at least another few weeks, but he at least seems to have avoided a serious setback.

  • Jesus Made SS | MIL

    Brewers' Jesus Made: Tacks on three steals

    Made went 3-for-4 with a walk, two RBI and three steals in a game with Double-A Biloxi on Thursday.

    It was another stellar showing for Made, who racked up multiple hits for the sixth time in 16 games -- a span over which he's posted a 1.119 OPS -- and upped his stolen-base count on the season to 11. There is not much room for Made to advance up prospect lists, but the teenage phenom is already pushing for a promotion to Triple-A.

  • Corey Seager SS | TEX

    Rangers' Corey Seager: Mashes homer in victory

    Seager went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in a 6-1 victory versus the Pirates on Thursday.

    Seager broke the game open in the fourth inning, belting a three-run shot to right field to give the Rangers a 6-0 lead. The veteran shortstop had been in the midst of a mini-slump coming into the contest, going just 1-for-15 at the plate with six strikeouts over his previous four games. Seager hasn't been hitting to his usual standard this season, slashing just .207/.317/.448 through 104 plate appearances, but he does have six homers, 16 RBI and 17 runs along with one stolen base.

  • Tristan Gray 3B | MIN

    Twins' Tristan Gray: Slugs third homer

    Gray went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Thursday's loss to the Mets.

    Gray swatted a solo shot to right-center field in the sixth inning and added a run-scoring single in the ninth. This was his first start in Minnesota's past three games, which coincides with the return of Royce Lewis to the lineup following a stint on the injured list. Gray doesn't seem to be in line for an everyday role, but he's been a pleasant surprise for the Twins early in the campaign, slashing .268/.311/.512 with three homers, 13 RBI and five runs through 46 plate appearances.

  • Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Stays hot in high-scoring affair

    Bogaerts went 2-for-3 with a home run, two RBI, three runs scored and two walks in Thursday's 10-8 win over Colorado.

    Although he got off to a dreadful 4-for-32 start over his first eight games of 2026, the veteran shortstop has been producing at a high level ever since. Over his last 68 trips to the plate (16 contests), Bogaerts is slashing .379/.471/.603 with four long balls, one double and two stolen bases to push his OPS for the year up to a .810.

  • Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Moved to leadoff

    Perdomo batted leadoff and went 1-for-4 in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the White Sox.

    Perdomo hit atop the order for the first time this season, as manager Torey Lovullo plans to platoon the shortstop and Ketel Marte at leadoff, per Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports. The two players operated as tandem leadoff batters over the second half of 2025 -- Perdomo against righties, Marte against lefties -- so the roles are nothing new to either player. The move coincides with Perdomo catching fire at the dish; he's hit safely in seven consecutive games, going 13-for-27 with four extra-base hits, two steals, two RBI and four runs scored. As part of the lineup tweak, Corbin Carroll drops from second to third in the order.

  • Ezequiel Duran 2B | TEX

    Rangers' Ezequiel Duran: Out of Thursday's lineup

    Duran isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Pirates.

    Duran is expected to receive the bulk of starts in left field while Wyatt Langford (forearm) is on the shelf, but the Rangers will keep Duran on the bench Thursday and start Alejandro Osuna in left.

  • Mets' Francisco Lindor: Placed on IL with calf strain

    The Mets placed Lindor on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a left calf strain.

    It's another tough break for the Mets, as they'll now lose Lindor to a strained calf after just getting Juan Soto back from his own calf strain. Per Joel Sherman of the New York Post, manager Carlos Mendoza said that Lindor's strain is worse than Soto's was, so Lindor's absence is likely to last longer than the two-and-a-half weeks Soto was out. Ronny Mauricio is up from Triple-A Syracuse and will fill in as the Mets' primary shortstop until Lindor returns.

  • Giants' Casey Schmitt: Out of San Francisco lineup

    Schmitt is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Dodgers.

    Schmitt had made 11 consecutive starts, but he will begin Thursday's festivities on the bench. Will Brennan will draw the start at designated hitter against righty Tyler Glasnow and the Dodgers.

  • Mets' Francisco Lindor: Expected to land on injured list

    The Mets are expected to place Lindor (calf) on the 10-day injured list Thursday, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

    Lindor was forced to leave Wednesday's game versus the Twins after tweaking his left calf while running the bases. The results of an MRI on Lindor's calf have yet to be revealed, but the feeling is that the injury is bad enough to force an IL move. Ronny Mauricio is in line to take Lindor's roster spot and could get some starts at shortstop in Lindor's stead. The club could also shift Bo Bichette to his natural shortstop position and use Brett Baty at third base.
