Soderstrom went 2-for-4 with a double and a two-run home run in Wednesday's 9-3 loss to the Dodgers.

The 23-year-old put the A's on the board and tied the game with a two-run homer during the third inning, with the long ball ending a 23-game homerless stretch. Soderstrom has cooled off from his hot start to the campaign but still has a .285/.343/.515 slash line with 10 home runs, two steals, 29 RBI and 27 runs through 43 contests in 2025.

Triolo went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Wednesday against the Mets.

Triolo recorded his first home run of the season Thursday and has at least one hit in five of his last six games. He's scored four runs in that span and has surprisingly tallied four total extra-base hits. Despite the slight uptick in production, Triolo is hitting just .167/.233/.308 across 87 plate appearances.

Gorski went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Wednesday against the Mets.

Gorski was in the lineup rarely with Derek Shelton managing the Pirates, but he has started five of six games since Don Kelly took over. He's struck out nine times in 19 plate appearances in that span while collecting only four hits, though he did manage a two-run homer in the second inning Wednesday, providing what proved to be the winning runs for Pittsburgh.

Steer went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double during Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the White Sox.

Steer broke the Reds' scoring slump in the seventh inning by swatting a solo home run off Davis Martin. The long ball was Steer's fourth of the campaign. The 27-year-old also notched a double for a third straight contest. On the year, Steer is slashing .199/.271/.333 with 21 runs scored and 12 RBI.

Toglia went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 8-3 loss to Texas.

Toglia has now recorded at least one hit in five of his last six games, and he added his third home run in the month of May. The switch hitter now has six multi-hit efforts in 2025, and he's batting .281 with three long balls, two doubles and five RBI over his last 32 at-bats (nine games). Toglia's fantasy appeal gets a considerable boost when he plays at home, as evidenced by his .886 OPS across 75 at-bats at hitter-friendly Coors Field this year.

Goldschmidt went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Wednesdays' 3-2 win over the Mariners.

Goldschmidt was out of the starting lineup, but he delivered the game-tying run with his seventh-inning solo shot as a pinch hitter. The first baseman is 9-for-24 (.375) over his last six games, adding two homers and five RBI in that span. For the season, he continues to offer steady offense with a .346 average, .901 OPS, five homers, 22 RBI, 27 runs scored and three stolen bases across 177 plate appearances.

Hoskins went 4-for-4 with a walk, a double, a home run, five total RBI and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 9-5 victory over the Guardians.

The first baseman launched a two-run homer during the seventh inning and also delivered three runs on singles in the sixth and ninth frames to match Cleveland's run production by himself. Hoskins went 0-for-3 to snap a modest seven-game hit streak Tuesday, but he's gone 14-for-45 (.311 average) with five doubles, two homers, 11 RBI and five runs through 13 contests in May, which has boosted his OPS for the season to .858.

Torkelson is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

Torkelson clubbed his 11th home run in Tuesday's extra-innings victory over the Red Sox, but he will receive just his second day off of the season in Wednesday's series finale. Colt Keith is playing first base for the Tigers and Kerry Carpenter will be the club's designated hitter.

Sogard will start at first base and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Tigers.

Sogard will draw his fourth start in five games and looks to have settled in as Boston's preferred option at first base in the wake of Triston Casas (knee) being lost for the season and Romy Gonzalez (back) recently going on the IL. Unless the Red Sox look for help outside the organization or if Rafael Devers reverses his stance and agrees to take some reps at first base, Sogard could be in store for a regular role so long as he performs well enough at the plate to warrant the playing time.

Rodriguez (finger) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Indianapolis on Wednesday.

Rodriguez has been shelved for the past month with a laceration on his right index finger but has been cleared to test himself in a game setting. The switch hitter shouldn't require too many at-bats in the minors before being activated from the 10-day injured list.
