  • Giants' Rafael Devers: Logs RBI double in loss

    Devers went 1-for-4 with an RBI double in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Rays.

    Devers hit a two-out double to center field in the sixth inning, driving in San Francisco's lone run. The veteran infielder has recorded a hit in three straight outings following a six-game stretch in which he logged just one hit. The 29-year-old is now slashing .211/.250/.297 with 12 RBI, eight runs scored and two home runs across 136 plate appearances in what has been a lackluster start to the season for both Devers and the Giants.

    Rockies' Jordan Beck: Stuck in short-side role

    Beck went 1-for-4 with a double and an RBI on Saturday against Atlanta.

    Beck remains limited to a short-side platoon role, though he has seen an uptick in playing time of late with Colorado facing three lefties in the last four games. He delivered the only run of the game for the Rockies with a double in the third inning. Beck has struggled when given an opportunity this season, so he isn't likely to see his playing time tick up in the immediate future.

  • Ronny Mauricio SS | NYM

    Mets' Ronny Mauricio: Diagnosed with fractured thumb

    Mauricio suffered a fractured left thumb in Saturday's loss to the Angels and will be placed on the 10-day injured list, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    Mauricio suffered the injury diving into first base on an infield single in the top of the seventh inning. He was replaced on defense in the bottom half of the frame and now appears set to miss extended time. With Francisco Lindor (calf) out multiple weeks, the Mets are in a dire situation at shortstop after Mauricio was just called up last week to fill in for Lindor. Bo Bichette moved to shortstop Saturday following Mauricio's departure and could be in line to fill in there for the immediate future.

  • Tristan Peters CF | CHW

    White Sox's Tristan Peters: Knocks in one, scores once

    Peters went 1-for-1 with a walk, an RBI and a run scored Saturday against the Padres.

    Peters remains the White Sox's primary center fielder, as he's drawn a start in eight straight games against right-handed pitching. He drew a walk and came around to score in the sixth inning Saturday before executing a sacrifice bunt for an RBI one frame later. Since taking over a more consistent role April 18, Peters has gone 11-for-28 (.393) with four RBI, seven runs scored and two stolen bases.

  • Miguel Vargas 3B | CHW

    White Sox's Miguel Vargas: Delivers key hit in win

    Vargas went 1-for-4 with two RBI on Saturday against the Padres.

    Vargas delivered a two-RBI single in the sixth inning to break a scoreless tie and help the White Sox to a win. After slumping to begin the season, he's turned things around since mid-April. In his last 15 games, Vargas has gone 16-for-58 (.276) with five homers, 10 RBI, 13 runs scored and two stolen bases.

  • Braves' Drake Baldwin: Keeps rolling Saturday

    Baldwin went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double, four RBI and a walk in Saturday's 9-1 win over the Rockies.

    Baldwin continues to roll as one of fantasy's breakout players in the early part of the season. The slugging backstop now has a pair of three-hit attacks on the campaign, and Saturday was already his third four-RBI effort of 2026. Through 138 at-bats, Baldwin is hitting .312 with eight long balls, five doubles, 29 RBI and 31 runs scored.

  • Oneil Cruz CF | PIT

    Pirates' Oneil Cruz: Scores twice in big win

    Cruz went 2-for-6 with two runs scored and an RBI on Saturday against the Reds.

    Nearly every hitter in the Pirates' lineup delivered counting stats in a 17-7 win, and Cruz contributed to significant rallies in the first and fourth innings. He's had a mediocre homestand across six games, going 6-for-24 with three RBI and six runs scored. Cruz has had a very impressive start to the season with nine home runs and 27 RBI already, though his 35.8 percent strikeout rate remains a significant red flag in his skills profile.

  • Austin Riley 3B | ATL

    Braves' Austin Riley: Shows off power, speed in rout

    Riley went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, a walk, a stolen base and an additional run scored in Saturday's 9-1 win over the Rockies.

    The 29-year-old ended up in an 0-for-15 cold spell over his final four outings of April, but he's starting the month of May off on the right foot. Saturday marked the first time this year that Riley both left the yard and swiped a bag in the same game. Riley, who hit seventh in the Atlanta lineup Saturday, is still batting a poor .205 with four homers, six doubles, 20 RBI and three stolen bases over 127 at-bats.

  • Brandon Lowe 2B | PIT

    Pirates' Brandon Lowe: Scores three runs

    Lowe went 1-for-1 with four walks, one RBI and three runs scored Saturday against the Reds.

    The Pirates walked 11 times as a team Saturday, with Lowe leading the way by drawing four free passes. He also delivered an RBI single in the first frame, and he was ultimately pulled in the seventh inning thanks to a nine-run lead. Lowe has at least one hit in four of his last five games, going 5-for-16 with two RBI and four runs scored in that span.

  • Riley O'Brien RP | STL

    Cardinals' Riley O'Brien: Barely holds on for ninth save

    O'Brien notched the save Saturday against the Dodgers, allowing two runs on four hits and no walks in the ninth inning. He struck out two.

    O'Brien needed every bit of the three-run cushion he was granted, giving up four straight hits and two runs with two outs before finally closing the door with a strikeout -- although three of those hits were inches away from becoming outs in the gloves of Masyn Winn or JJ Wetherholt. The 31-year-old right-hander has been a bit shaky lately, converting just three of his last five save chances while yielding four runs during that span. Overall, O'Brien still sports a 2.20 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 19:1 K:BB with nine saves across 16.1 innings.
