Twins' Kody Clemens: Remains hot with three hits
Clemens went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in a 7-0 win against Milwaukee on Saturday.
Clemens collected his first three-hit performance of the campaign, with one of his knocks being a solo homer in the fifth inning. The 29-year-old began the season with just three hits over his first 24 at-bats, but he's picked things up of late. Over his past four contests, Clemens has recorded three multi-hit efforts while going 7-for-15 with two long balls and six RBI.

DJ LeMahieu 2B | NYY
Yankees' DJ LeMahieu: Pops first homer
LeMahieu went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Mets.
In his third game since recovering from calf and hip injuries to make his belated season debut, LeMahieu was able to poke a Griffin Canning fastball down the right-field line into the Yankee Stadium short porch for a third-inning homer, and his first long ball of the year. The 36-year-old infielder has three hits in eight at-bats since being activated, and he should see regular playing time at second base while Jazz Chisholm (oblique) remains sidelined.

Otto Lopez SS | MIA
Marlins' Otto Lopez: Rejoins team
Lopez (ankle) rejoined the Marlins in Miami on Saturday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.
Lopez has been sidelined since May 4 due to a sprained right ankle and appeared in one rehab game Friday with Triple-A Jacksonville. He isn't yet activated, though he may return to the lineup for Sunday's series finale versus the Rays.

Willi Castro RF | CHC
Twins' Willi Castro: Out of lineup Saturday
Castro (knee) isn't in the starting lineup for Saturday's game versus Milwaukee.
Castro was pulled early from Friday's game against the Brewers after fouling a ball off his knee in the first inning. Though he was able to finish his at-bat, the utility man was replaced in the field for the following frame and will now be held out of the lineup for at least one game. Castro had started in left field Friday with Harrison Bader out of action while battling a groin injury, but Bader is back starting in left Saturday.

Tyler Fitzgerald CF | SF
Giants' Tyler Fitzgerald: Doubles in return
Fitzgerald (rib) went 1-for-3 with a double, a run scored and a walk in Friday's 9-1 win over the Athletics.
Fitzgerald was placed on the 10-day injured list May 1 due to a left rib fracture but was reinstated Friday after a brief rehab assignment with Triple-A Sacramento. The 27-year-old infielder drew a walk in the third inning before coming around to score on a grand slam by Wilmer Flores. Fitzgerald also lined his fifth double of the 2025 campaign. He's now slashing .286/.348/.440 with two homers, five steals, 15 runs scored, seven RBI and a 7:22 BB:K across 94 plate appearances this season.

Mets' Ronny Mauricio: Activated, optioned to Triple-A
The Mets reinstated Mauricio (knee) from the injured list Saturday and optioned him to Triple-A Syracuse.
Mauricio missed all of last season while recovering from a torn ACL that required multiple surgeries to repair. With the 20 days on his rehab assignment up, the 24-year-old infielder will report to Syracuse after playing 10 rehab games between Single-A and Double-A, during which he went just 4-for-32 at the plate.

Brice Turang 2B | MIL
Brewers' Brice Turang: Busy on basepaths in loss
Turang went 1-for-4 with two stolen bases in Friday's 3-0 loss to the Twins.
The second baseman very nearly manufactured a run by himself in the first inning, slapping a single to left field and then swiping second and third base, but the Brewers couldn't bring Turang home and never got another runner that close to scoring again. The 25-year-old is up to 11 steals on the year in 14 attempts while slashing .288/.365/.365 with three homers, 16 RBI and 32 runs in 42 games.
