Gilbert (0-2) took the loss Monday, allowing two runs on six hits and no walks over six innings against the Rangers. He struck out five.

Gilbert was largely effective, though a pair of runs allowed in his first and final frames saddled him with the loss as the Mariners' offense was silenced. While Monday wasn't his sharpest outing, it marked a step in the right direction after the right-hander surrendered eight runs across 10.2 innings in his first two starts of the season. Gilbert is lined up to face the division-rival Astros in his next outing Sunday.

India went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and three RBI in Monday's 4-2 win over the Guardians.

India had the biggest swing of the game Monday, knocking in two big insurance runs in the eighth inning with a home run. It was a part of the third multi-hit game of the season for the 29-year-old, who is slashing .250/.344/.464 with two homers, three walks, seven strikeouts and eight RBI on the season. With his two home runs in nine games, India is on pace to shatter the nine home runs he had in 136 games in 2025.

Neto went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 6-2 win against Atlanta on Monday.

Atlanta jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning, but Neto erased the deficit with a long ball to lead off the Angels' half of the frame. It was his second leadoff homer in the past three days and his fourth overall home run this season. Neto leads his team in that category and ranks fourth in MLB in the early going.

Jensen went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and two runs scored during Monday's 4-2 win over the Guardians.

Jensen picked up his second multi-hit game in as many outings Monday, knocking out his second homer of the year in the process. In his first season making the Opening Day roster, the 22-year-old has suited up in nine of the the first 10 games and is slashing .250/.296/.542 with a double and five RBI.

Caratini went 2-for-4 with three RBI in Monday's 7-3 victory over the Tigers.

Caratini was a run-producing force, driving in three runs as part of his second two-hit performance of the young campaign. Through seven games, the veteran is hitting .269/.333/.269 with no extra-base hits and four RBI. While he's not entrenched as an everyday player, Caratini has seen frequent opportunities, spelling Ryan Jeffers behind the plate and drawing starts at first base over Kody Clemens against left-handed pitching.

Romano earned a save against Atlanta on Monday, retiring the only batter he faced in the ninth inning.

The Angels carried a 6-1 lead into the ninth frame, so it looked like Romano wouldn't be needed. However, reliever Chase Silseth ran into some trouble, giving up a solo home run to open the inning and then putting a pair of runners on base. Romano was summoned to put out the fire and did just that, getting Mike Yastrzemski to fly out to end the game. Romano is now 4-for-4 on save chances and has yet to give up a run through five innings, so he seems to have a pretty good hold on the Angels' closer role.

Mullins went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run during Monday's 6-4 win over the Cubs.

Mullins tied the game at two with his first homer of the season Monday in the second inning as part of a three-run frame. It's a step in the right direction for the 31-year-old, who has struggled otherwise to start the season. Even after his home run, he is slashing just .132/.150/.237 on the season; however, he avoided a strikeout for the first time in eight games.

Keaschall went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, an additional run scored and two walks in Monday's win over the Tigers.

Keaschall provided the Twins with a lead they wouldn't relinquish, launching his first homer of the campaign in the bottom of the fourth inning by turning on a Casey Mize fastball and sending it into the left-field bleachers. It's been a slow start to the year for the second baseman, who entered Monday's contest slashing .222/.256/.250 through nine games. After posting an .827 OPS across 49 games as a rookie in 2025, Keaschall entered 2026 with moderately high expectations and will look to find his stride moving forward.

Caminero went 1-for-4 with a home run in Monday's 6-4 win over the Cubs.

One year after launching 45 home runs and driving in 110 runs, it took Caminero nine games to get his first home run and pick up his first RBI of the season. He didn't wait too long to get his second homer. The 22-year-old launched his second blast in as many games in the third inning Monday and extended his hit streak to four games in the process. He is now slashing .256/.370/.436 in the young campaign.

Soriano (3-0) earned the win over Atlanta on Monday, allowing one run on three hits and no walks while striking out 10 batters over eight innings.

Soriano entered Monday on a 12-inning scoreless streak to begin the campaign. That ended when Drake Baldwin launched a solo homer off him in the first frame, but Soriano responded in impressive fashion, allowing just two more hits and zero additional runs over the remainder of his eight innings. Soriano racked up 15 swinging strikes and 10 punchouts, giving him 21 strikeouts -- tied for the MLB lead -- through his first 20 frames. Soriano posted a career-worst 4.26 ERA last season along with an 8.1 K/9, so there's reason to be skeptical about how long he can keep dominating opponents, but for now he's emerged as one of fantasy's most valuable early-season successes.
