  • J.P. Crawford SS | SEA

    Mariners' J.P. Crawford: Three hits Sunday

    Crawford went 3-for-4 with two doubles, three RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 8-2 win over Tampa Bay.

    Crawford extended Seattle's lead to 3-0 in the second inning with his two-out, two-run double off Ian Seymour before adding a third RBI with his second double in the ninth. It's a nice way to head into the All-Star break for Crawford, who'd gone 13 games without an RBI prior to Sunday -- he went 8-for-52 (.154) with a .453 OPS over that span. Overall, Crawford is slashing .218/.334/.359 with 10 homers, 38 runs scored, 28 RBI and one steal through 335 plate appearances this season.

  • Willy Adames SS | SF

    Giants' Willy Adames: Trio of hits in win

    Adames went 3-for-4 with an RBI in Sunday's win over Colorado.

    Adames led all players in Sunday's contest with three hits, with his RBI single in the eighth inning extending San Francisco's lead to 3-1. It marked the shortstop's first three-hit effort since May 31 and his fifth game with at least three knocks this season. The 30-year-old will head into the All-Star break slashing .230/.281/.420 with 15 homers, 37 RBI, 45 runs and two stolen bases across 91 games.

  • Brayan Rocchio SS | CLE

    Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Launches eighth home run

    Rocchio went 2-for-5 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Marlins.

    After collecting an RBI single to open the scoring in his first plate appearance, Rocchio extended Cleveland's lead in the fifth inning by taking Michael Petersen deep for his eighth home run of the season. The long ball matched his career high from 2024, but he has reached the mark in 50 fewer games this time around. The shortstop has been hot lately, batting .317 with three home runs and 10 RBI over his last 11 games.

  • Jett Williams SS | MIL

    Brewers' Jett Williams: Nursing wrist issue

    Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Sunday that Williams is managing a minor wrist injury, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    The Brewers bolstered their infield depth by acquiring Braden Shewmake from the Astros on Sunday, but that trade may not have been necessary if Williams wasn't banged up. The 23-year-old hasn't seen the field for Triple-A Nashville since Tuesday but currently remains on the active roster, which supports the notion that the injury isn't viewed as a serious concern.

  • Mets' Francisco Lindor: Homers Sunday

    Lindor went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an RBI double in Sunday's 3-2, extra-inning loss to the Red Sox.

    Lindor was responsible for all of New York's offense Sunday -- he opened the scoring with an RBI double in the first inning before extending the lead to 2-0 in the sixth with a solo shot off Brayan Bello. It's a nice way to head into the All-Star break for Lindor, who'd gone just 2-for-20 in his past six games coming into the day. Overall, he's slashing .216/.298/.373 with five homers, 12 RBI, 22 runs scored and two steals across 171 plate appearances this year.

  • Tristan Gray SS | MIN

    Twins' Tristan Gray: Cedes shortstop to Kreidler on Sunday

    Gray is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

    Though he had started against three straight right-handed pitchers, Gray will give way to Ryan Kreidler on Sunday against Angels righty Jose Soriano. Gray could still rank as the Twins' preferred option at shortstop coming out of the All-Star break, as Kreidler has fizzled at the plate of late. Since churning out back-to-back three-hit performances June 20 and 21, Kreidler has slashed .167/.200/.250 over his subsequent 15 games.

  • Jacob Wilson SS | ATH

    Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Logs two hits in loss

    Wilson went 2-for-4 with a triple in Saturday's loss to the White Sox.

    Wilson accounted for half of his club's four hits, including his first triple of the campaign, as the Athletics' losing streak reached eight games. After going hitless in his first two games back from the injured list, the shortstop has recorded two hits in each of the past three contests. Overall, the 24-year-old is slashing .282/.315/.391 with four homers, 26 RBI, 24 runs and two stolen bases across 55 games in 2026.

  • Colt Emerson SS | SEA

    Mariners' Colt Emerson: Taking seat Sunday

    Emerson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.

    The rookie shortstop has gone 3-for-25 with 12 strikeouts through his first eight contests in July and will hit the bench Sunday for the second time in Seattle's past three games. Barring an appearance off the bench. Emerson will close the first half of the season with seven homers, three steals, 20 RBI, 17 runs and a .201/.275/.396 slash line in 45 games.

  • Royals' Tyler Tolbert: Sitting for third straight game

    Tolbert is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

    Tolbert made some waves with a recent three-game stretch in which he tied an MLB record with 12 consecutive hits while slugging two home runs, stealing three bases, driving in four runs and scoring seven times, but his brief run as a regular appears to have come to an end. With the Royals bringing Vinnie Pasquantino back from the injured list Friday, Tolbert has been the odd man out of the lineup for all three games in Baltimore this weekend. The lack of a full-time role will limit Tolbert's utility in mixed leagues, but he'll still have some appeal in AL-only formats since he still projects to play regularly against left-handed pitching and can make an impact with his speed when he gets a chance to use it.

  • Cooper Pratt SS | MIL

    Brewers' Cooper Pratt: Receiving breather Sunday

    Pratt is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.

    Pratt will get a breather in the Brewers' final game before the All-Star break, after he had started seven straight contests, including both ends of Saturday's doubleheader. With Pratt idle, the Brewers will shift Joey Ortiz to shortstop and open up third base for the newly acquired Braden Shewmake, who will be making his team debut.
