Nunez went 2-for-4 with four RBI, a walk and a stolen base in Saturday's 6-3 extra-inning win over the White Sox.

The 25-year-old middle infielder established a season high in RBI, which also matched a career best. However, Nunez is likely to remain strictly a fantasy streamer for stolen bases going forward -- he's slashing a pitiful .195/.298/.207 with one extra-base hit, 10 RBI and 12 runs scored over 96 plate appearances but does rank first in the major leagues with 12 steals.

Torres isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Reds.

Torres will get a breather Saturday following a stretch of 12 straight starts, during which he slashed .250/.389/.273 with three RBI and five runs scored. His absence will move Javier Baez to the keystone and allow Matt Vierling to start in center field.

Acuna isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Nationals.

The White Sox have alternated between starting Acuna and Tristan Peters in center field since April 15, and Saturday will mark Peters' turn to join the starting nine.

Schneemann isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game versus Toronto.

Schneemann has logged a base hit in 10 of his last 11 games, but the Guardians will keep him on the bench Saturday while Juan Brito starts at second base and Steven Kwan patrols center field.

Grissom went 2-for-4 with two doubles and a run scored in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Royals.

Activated from the injured list two weeks ago, Grissom knocked a pair of doubles off left-hander Noah Cameron for his first two extra-base hits of the 2026 campaign. Through his first 32 plate appearances of the season, Grissom is slashing .292/.419/.375 with three RBI, four runs scored and a 6:2 BB:K.

Schneemann started at second base, batted leadoff and went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double and a solo home run in Friday's 8-6 win over the Blue Jays.

With regular leadoff batter Steven Kwan rested Friday, Schneemann found himself at the top of the Guardians' order and rewarded manager Stephen Vogt's decision by belting a leadoff home run. It was the third homer of the season for Schneemann, whose .989 OPS surprisingly leads the team. The versatile infielder-outfielder has been used all over the field through the first month of the season, but Schneemann could find a home at the keystone, where Cleveland ranks 27th with a .195 average from its second basemen.

Arraez went 3-for-5 with one RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 9-4 loss to the Marlins.

Arraez is up to four steals on the year, including two over the last two games. He's doing his usual work as a reliable contact hitter, batting .320 with a .723 OPS through his first 25 games as a Giant. The infielder has added seven RBI, 11 runs scored, one double and two triples across 106 plate appearances, but he hasn't hit a home run yet this season.

Edwards went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk, a stolen base, one RBI and one run scored in Friday's 9-4 win over the Giants.

Edwards saw a six-game hitting streak end Wednesday against the Cardinals, but he bounced back well. The steal was his first since April 5. The second baseman logged 27 steals on 34 attempts across 139 games in 2025, but he's just 3-for-4 on the basepaths over 26 contests in 2026. Edwards has made up for the lack of running with reliable hitting -- he's batting .347 with a .909 OPS, one home run, eight RBI, 19 runs scored, six doubles and two triples across 113 plate appearances. There's not a lot of power in his swing, but he has strong plate discipline and the potential to make a larger impact with his speed as the season progresses.

Norby went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Friday's 9-4 win over the Giants.

Norby stretched the Marlins' lead to 8-0 in the fourth inning with his blast off Adrian Houser. This was Norby's first homer since April 13. The infielder is batting .244 with a .756 OPS, three long balls, 10 RBI, seven runs scored, five doubles and no stolen bases over 90 plate appearances this season. Norby has operated as the Marlins' primary first baseman lately, though that could change once Christopher Morel (oblique) is activated from the injured list.

Kim went 2-for-3 with one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 6-4 loss to the Cubs.

Kim logged a steal for the second game in a row. This was his third multi-hit effort over his last six games. The infielder has hit .351 with a .918 OPS, one home run, six RBI, six runs scored, two doubles and five steals on six attempts across 44 plate appearances this season. Once Mookie Betts (oblique) returns, Kim may settle into a utility role, though he could be able to push Alex Freeland into a platoon role at second base.
