  • Brice Turang 2B | MIL

    Brewers' Brice Turang: Back in lineup Friday

    Turang (ankle) is starting at second base and batting out of the leadoff spot in Friday's game against the Nationals.

    Turang was out of the lineup for the Brewers' last two games due to left ankle tendinitis, but he has been cleared to play in Friday's series opener against Washington. Through 10 regular-season games, Turang has gone 10-for-37 (.270) with four steals (five attempts), one home run and seven RBI.

  • Zack Gelof 3B | ATH

    Athletics' Zack Gelof: Recalled from Triple-A

    The Athletics recalled Gelof from Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday.

    He's taking the roster spot of the injured Brent Rooker (oblique). Gelof was slashing a blistering .366/.519/.732 with four home runs, three steals and a 13:7 BB:K at hitter-friendly Las Vegas. While those numbers are encouraging, Gelof's .205/.264/.348 line with a 36.1 percent strikeout rate since 2024 with the A's is not. He could see some action at designated hitter and/or second base while Rooker is out.

  • Royals' Jonathan India: Getting breather Friday

    India is absent from the lineup for Friday's contest versus the White Sox.

    India had made six consecutive starts but will get a breather in Friday's series opener. The Royals are going with Michael Massey at second base and in the No. 6 spot in the lineup.

  • Brandon Lowe 2B | PIT

    Pirates' Brandon Lowe: Sitting against lefty

    Lowe is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Cubs.

    With left-hander Shota Imanaga on the mound for the Cubs, Lowe will take a seat. Nick Gonzales is getting the start at second base and batting fifth for Pittsburgh. Lowe is slashing .220/.333/.488 with three home runs, four RBI, four runs scored and a 7:10 BB:K across 48 trips to the plate but is batting just .130 with a .405 OPS over the last seven days.

  • Xavier Edwards 2B | MIA

    Marlins' Xavier Edwards: On base three times in win

    Edwards went 2-for-4 with a walk, a run scored and an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Reds.

    After going 0-for-7 over the prior two games -- his first hitless performances this season -- Edwards got back on track Wednesday. The switch-hitting speedster has come flying out of the gates, slashing .400/.438/.533 over 12 contests with three doubles, a homer, two steals, six RBI and 10 runs.

  • Jazz Chisholm 2B | NYY

    Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: First day off Thursday

    Chisholm is absent from the lineup for Thursday's contest against the Athletics.

    The Athletics are sending lefty Jeffrey Springs to the bump, allowing for the left-handed-hitting Chisholm to get his first day off of the season. Amed Rosario will cover second base and bat leadoff for the Yankees.

  • Luke Keaschall 2B | MIN

    Twins' Luke Keaschall: Getting first day off Thursday

    Keaschall is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Tigers.

    It's the first day off this season for Keaschall, who has reached base five times and driven in four runs in the first three games of the series. Kody Clemens will get the start at second base and slot into the No. 6 spot in the lineup as the Twins go for the sweep.

  • Connor Norby 1B | MIA

    Marlins' Connor Norby: Not in Thursday's lineup

    Norby is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Reds.

    Norby popped his first home run of the season Wednesday but will get a breather in Thursday's matinee. Liam Hicks will be utilized as the Marlins' first baseman and cleanup man.

  • Connor Norby 1B | MIA

    Marlins' Connor Norby: Hits first homer of season

    Norby went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's win over the Reds.

    Norby went yard for the first time this season with a blast off Connor Phillips in the seventh inning. Norby's fantasy production has been limited this season, however; through 11 games and 42 plate appearances, he's hitting just .206 with a .710 OPS, adding a homer, two doubles, two RBI and three runs scored. Even though third base isn't known for being one of the deepest positions in terms of fantasy talent, Norby's current production makes him a middling fantasy option at the moment.

  • Luke Keaschall 2B | MIN

    Twins' Luke Keaschall: Swipes second bag

    Keaschall went 1-for-5 with one RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Wednesday's 8-6 win over the Tigers.

    Keaschall has plated at least one run in three straight games, going 3-for-12 over the first three contests of this week's series against the Tigers. The second baseman is hitting just .208 with a .556 OPS through 53 plate appearances over 12 games this season. He's added two steals, one home run, seven RBI, six runs scored and two doubles. Keaschall hit .302 with an .827 OPS over 49 games across two big-league stints in 2025, so there's some clear potential for him to turn things around. He may still need to adjust to major-league pitching a bit, which will make it tough for him to replicate his ratios from last year, but he has good bat-to-ball skills.
