  • Matt Chapman 3B | SF

    Giants' Matt Chapman: Logs RBI in loss

    Chapman went 1-for-4 with an RBI in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Yankees.

    Chapman recorded an RBI single in the third inning, picking up his first hit of the season after going 0-for-5 with three walks over San Francisco's first two games. The veteran third baseman has had a quiet start to the season after putting together a strong spring, during which he slashed .405/.421/.838 with nine RBI, seven runs scored and three long balls across 38 plate appearances in 15 Cactus League games.

  • Orioles' Jayvien Sandridge: Traded to Baltimore

    The Orioles acquired Sandridge from the Angels on Sunday in exchange for cash and optioned him to Triple-A Norfolk, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Sandridge will reclaim a 40-man roster spot with his new organization after being DFA'ed by the Halos, but he's still set to begin the 2026 season in Triple-A, where he put up a 4.55 ERA and 1.47 WHIP across 31.2 innings last year. He'll serve as organizational bullpen depth for the O's.

  • Jung Hoo Lee RF | SF

    Giants' Jung Hoo Lee: Doubles in loss

    Lee went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and a run scored in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Yankees.

    Lee shifted to the leadoff spot Saturday and doubled in the third inning before coming around to score San Francisco's lone run. He also drew a walk in the fifth. The 27-year-old outfielder has struggled to begin the campaign, going 1-for-10 with two strikeouts across three games.

  • Brewers' Christian Yelich: Resting Sunday

    Yelich is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

    With Milwaukee wrapping up its season-opening series with a day game and a lefty (Anthony Kay) on the hill for the White Sox, the left-handed-hitting Yelich will get a breather. William Contreras will get a day off from catching but will stick in the lineup at designated hitter in place of Yelich, who went 5-for-9 with a walk, a stolen base, three runs and two RBI in Milwaukee's first two games.

  • Brewers' Garrett Mitchell: Idle Sunday

    Mitchell is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

    Mitchell has started the season strong with two hits, three walks, two stolen bases, three RBI and two runs through the first two games, but he'll hit the bench along with fellow left-handed hitters Christian Yelich, Jake Bauers and David Hamilton as Milwaukee stocks up on right-handed bats to counter southpaw Anthony Kay. Blake Perkins will cover center field in Mitchell's place Sunday.

  • Jake Bauers 1B | MIL

    Brewers' Jake Bauers: Sitting against southpaw

    Bauers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

    Bauers went 3-for-10 with a home run, three RBI and two additional runs through the Brewers' first two contests of the season, but he'll hit the bench Sunday against southpaw Anthony Kay. Especially while Andrew Vaughn (hand) and Jackson Chourio (hand) are on the shelf, Bauers should have a clear runway to regular playing time against right-handed pitching.

  • Yainer Diaz C | HOU

    Astros' Yainer Diaz: Getting breather Sunday

    Diaz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Diaz will get a break Sunday after starting the first three games of the season. He's yet to get his bat going, having gone 2-for-12 with a walk, two RBI, a run and five strikeouts. Christian Vazquez is starting behind the plate in the series finale, batting ninth.

  • Jake Meyers CF | HOU

    Astros' Jake Meyers: Taking seat Sunday

    Meyers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Meyers has gone 2-for-8 with a walk, a double, a stolen base, two RBI and two runs through two contests but will sit for the second time in Houston's first four games of the season. Joey Loperfido will shift to center field Sunday while Yordan Alvarez picks up a start in the outfield.

  • David Hamilton 3B | MIL

    Brewers' David Hamilton: Taking seat against southpaw

    Hamilton is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

    After starting at third base in the first two games of the season, Hamilton will retreat to the bench against southpaw Anthony Kay. Luis Rengifo will cover the hot corner in his place. Hamilton has helped fantasy managers early on by going 1-for-4 with four walks, three stolen bases and three runs.

  • Oswald Peraza 2B | LAA

    Angels' Oswald Peraza: Out of Sunday's lineup

    Peraza is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Peraza has gone 4-for-11 with a homer while starting the first three games of the year at second base. Adam Frazier will pick up a start at the keystone Sunday to close out the series in Houston.
