  • Jazz Chisholm CF | NYY

    Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Launches first long ball of season

    Chisholm went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run in Saturday's 20-9 victory versus Milwaukee.

    The Yankees set a franchise record with nine home runs in the rout, and Chisholm got in on the action with a 442-foot solo blast in the third inning. The veteran slugger slotted into the cleanup spot but mostly came up with the bases empty since Aaron Judge blasted three homers one spot ahead of him in the lineup. Chisholm's big performance followed an 0-for-3, two-strikeout performance in New York's season opener.

  • Andres Gimenez 2B | TOR

    Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Goes deep in loss to Orioles

    Gimenez went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer, walk and strikeout in a 9-5 loss to Baltimore.

    After hitting just nine home runs in 2024 over 583 at-bats, the 26-year-old is already up to two homers through three games this year. Gimenez was acquired by Toronto from Cleveland in December and has batted cleanup in the first three games of 2025, so it appears he'll have more RBI potential with his new club.

  • Otto Lopez SS | MIA

    Marlins' Otto Lopez: Swipes bag in win

    Lopez went 3-for-5 with a walk, one RBI, one run scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 5-4 extra-innings win over the Pirates.

    Lopez stole his first base of the season in the third inning and later scored the game-winning run in the 12th frame. While the Marlins' lineup may not generate much excitement, the 26-year-old has tallied five hits with a homer, four RBI, three runs scored and a steal across the season's first three games.

  • Red Sox's Kristian Campbell: Blasts first major-league home run

    Campbell started in left field went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a double and a walk in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.

    Campbell tied things up for the Red Sox in the fourth inning when he took Jacob Webb deep for a 431-foot solo homer to center. Campbell earned a spot on Boston's Opening Day roster despite struggling in spring training, but he appears to have settled in nicely and has gone 5-for-10 over his first three major-league games. He's made two starts at second base and one start in left field. He'll look to finish the four-game series off strong Sunday against Rangers right-hander Jacob deGrom.

  • Gleyber Torres 2B | DET

    Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Not starting Saturday

    Torres (ribs) is not in the Tigers' starting lineup against the Dodgers on Saturday.

    Torres was removed in the sixth inning of Friday's extra-inning loss when he aggravated a rib injury after hitting a home run in the third frame. The injury doesn't appear to be severe enough for him to warrant a stint on the IL, but he'll sit out of Saturday's contest ahead of Monday's series opener against the Mariners. Colt Keith will start at the keystone and bat fifth against Dodgers right-hander Roki Sasaki.

  • Nico Hoerner 2B | CHC

    Cubs' Nico Hoerner: Not starting Saturday

    Hoerner isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game versus Arizona.

    Hoerner went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in the Cubs' domestic opener Thursday but followed it up with an 0-for-4 outing Friday. He'll now take a seat Saturday while Jon Berti picks up a start at the keystone and bats ninth.

  • Astros' Brendan Rodgers: Getting Saturday off

    Rodgers isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    Rodgers is 0-for-6 with a walk and two strikeouts through two games this season. The Astros will give him a chance to regroup Saturday while Mauricio Dubon starts at the keystone and bats eighth.

  • Gabriel Arias SS | CLE

    Guardians' Gabriel Arias: Sitting Saturday

    Arias isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game versus Kansas City.

    Arias went 1-for-4 with a run scored during the Guardians' season opener Thursday, but the team will send Daniel Schneemann to the keystone for the second game of the year.

  • Gleyber Torres 2B | DET

    Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Removal deemed precautionary

    Torres aggravated a rib injury during Friday's game against the Dodgers, Jeff Seidel of The Detroit Free Press reports.

    Torres was grabbing at his left side after hitting a home run in the third inning Friday. He remained in the game for a few additional innings but was eventually removed in the sixth, though the team said after the game that his removal was precautionary due to a rib injury that he's been fighting recently. The Tigers may continue to take a cautious approach and keep Torres out for a game or two, though a trip to the IL doesn't seem imminent.

  • Luis Garcia 2B | WAS

    Nationals' Luis Garcia: Resting against left-hander

    Garcia is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Phillies, Andrew Golden of The Washington Postreports.

    The left-handed bat of Garcia will stay put in the Nats' dugout Saturday while southpaw Jesus Luzardo toes the slab for Philly. Amed Rosario will take over at the keystone and bat fifth.
