Adames went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, a double, a walk and two total runs scored in Tuesday's 10-6 win over the Diamondbacks.

Adames has three multi-hit efforts over his last nine games, going 10-for-39 (.256) with three homers, four doubles and six RBI in that span. The shortstop has had a lackluster start to his first year with the Giants, though he's batting .270 at home compared to .189 on the road. Overall, he has a .225/.304/.367 slash line, five homers, 21 RBI, 26 runs scored, two stolen bases and nine doubles across 191 plate appearances.

Koss went 2-for-4 with a grand slam in Tuesday's 10-6 win over the Diamondbacks.

The Giants fell behind early, but they never looked back after Koss put them ahead with a second-inning grand slam. The infielder has gone 6-for-17 (.353 average) over his last six games, adding six RBI in that span. Overall, he's batting .241 with one home run, seven RBI, six runs scored and no stolen bases over 59 plate appearances on the season. He had nine long balls over 88 minor-league games across three levels last season, so don't expect a lot of power out of Koss. With both Tyler Fitzgerald (rib) and Casey Schmitt (oblique) on rehab assignments, Koss's time as an mainstay in the middle infield for San Francisco could soon come to an end.

Ray (6-0) allowed three runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out nine over six innings to earn the win over the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

Ray gave up all three runs in the first inning. While he didn't completely shut things down after that, he kept Arizona at bay, allowing the Giants to build an insurmountable lead. This was Ray's fourth straight quality start as well as his third consecutive win. The southpaw is now at a 3.04 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 55:26 K:BB across 50.1 innings over nine starts. After two campaigns riddled by injuries (Tommy John surgery and a hamstring injury), Ray is healthy and pitching effectively, despite a troublesome 4.6 BB/9. His next start is projected to be at home versus the Royals.

Tatis went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, two walks and two total runs scored in Tuesday's 6-4 win over the Angels.

Tatis is seeing the ball well, lifting three homers over the last four contests. His hitting streak is up to seven games, a span in which he has gone 9-for-29 (.310) with four extra-base hits and eight RBI. He's maintained a strong performance all season, slashing .316/.389/.574 with 11 homers, 26 RBI, 36 runs scored, eight stolen bases, five doubles and a triple over 40 games.

Cease allowed two runs on five hits and a walk while striking out 10 over 6.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Angels on Tuesday.

Cease pitched well, but he was charged with a second run after leaving the game when Jeremiah Estrada couldn't keep the Angels at bay in the seventh inning. This was the second start in a row where Cease has set a season high in strikeouts, and he also pitched into the seventh inning for the third time this season. He's at a 4.60 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 58:18 K:BB across 47 innings through nine starts. A nine-run dud against the Athletics on April 8 continues to skew his overall numbers -- he's yet to allow more than three runs in any other start. He's projected to make his next start on the road at Toronto.

Friedl exited Tuesday's game against the White Sox early due to right wrist soreness, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports.

Friedl's wrist hit the ground hard after he collided with Elly De La Cruz in the outfield during the fourth inning, leading to Friedl's eventual removal in the fifth. X-rays on his wrist came back negative after the game, so he doesn't seem to be dealing with anything too serious. However, the Reds may elect to sit him down for a day or two, especially since the 29-year-old had also been hit in the left forearm by a pitch earlier in the game.

Flexen (1-0) worked around a hit and a walk to toss two scoreless innings of relief and earn the win in Tuesday's 5-4 victory over the Marlins. He struck out one.

Making his fourth appearance in the majors this season, Flexen picked up his first win. After working as a starter in recent years, the veteran has transitioned to the bullpen in 2025, and he's off to a good start for the Cubs. Flexen has yet to allow a run across seven innings of work and he's struck out six. The righty has also covered multiple innings on two occasions, giving Chicago some valuable length in relief.

Beck went 1-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to Texas.

It was Beck's fifth stolen base of the year and his first since April 25. The 24-year-old outfielder has at least one hit in 17 of his last 20 games, batting .303 with six home runs, nine RBI and 16 runs scored over 76 at-bats in that span. Beck has settled in as Colorado's primary left fielder in 2025.

Crow-Armstrong went 2-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Marlins.

Crow-Armstrong has moved up to the top of the order recently with Ian Happ (oblique) out, and the former has continued to deliver. The youngster is in the midst of a breakout campaign with 11 home runs and 13 stolen bases, both of which lead the team. Crow-Armstrong's combination of power and speed makes him a very useful fantasy asset.

Fitzgerald (rib) started at second base and went 1-for-3 with a run scored in Triple-A Sacramento's 5-3 win over Salt Lake on Tuesday.

Fitzgerald began his rehab assignment with Sacramento after being placed on the 10-day IL on May 1 due to a left rib fracture. The 27-year-old infielder hit leadoff and singled in the first inning before coming around to score. Barring any setbacks during his rehab assignment, Fitzgerald could return to the Giants later this week. He has played in 25 games in the majors this season, slashing .284/.341/.432 with 14 runs scored, seven RBI and five stolen bases across 90 plate appearances.
