  • Austin Riley 3B | ATL

    Braves' Austin Riley: Continues power surge Monday

    Riley went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's loss to the Diamondbacks.

    Riley accounted for the Braves' second run with his 402-foot solo shot in the fourth inning. The long ball was his 12th of the campaign, placing him in a tie for fourth place in the National League. Four of his homers have come in his past six games, and he has gone 8-for-24 with five RBI over that stretch.

  • Ramon Urias 3B | STL

    Orioles' Ramon Urias: Homers, drives in three

    Urias went 1-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Monday's 10-0 win over the Red Sox.

    Urias' lone hit of the game was a third-inning two-run blast off Red Sox starter Rich Hill. In the fifth, Urias picked up another RBI on a groundout. The 27-year-old infielder has gone 13-for-40 (.325) in his last 10 contests. He's posted a .230/.279/.362 slash line with four homers, 15 RBI, 18 runs scored and eight doubles through 42 games.

  • Evan Longoria 3B | ARI

    Giants' Evan Longoria: Power surge continues

    Longoria went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and three strikeouts in Monday's 5-4 extra-inning win over the Phillies.

    Longoria homered for the third game in a row, and his fifth time in the last five contests. The power surge is part of a seven-game hitting streak, during which he's gone 9-for-26 (.346). The third baseman owns a .241/.268/.556 slash line with five long balls, 11 RBI, seven runs scored and a 33.9 percent strikeout rate in 16 contests this season.

  • Royals' Emmanuel Rivera: Homers in loss Monday

    Rivera went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 7-3 loss to the Guardians.

    Rivera took Cleveland starter Zach Plesac deep in the third inning to tie the game at 1-1. In his last five games, Rivera is 5-for-20 (.250) with three RBI and three runs scored. The third baseman is up to four homers, 12 RBI, 13 runs scored and a .230/.288/.486 slash line through 80 plate appearances this season. As long as the Royals' outfield depth is tested by absences -- forcing Whit Merrifield to move from second base -- Rivera should see fairly regular playing time at the hot corner.

  • Gio Urshela 3B | MIN

    Twins' Gio Urshela: Knocks three hits

    Urshela went 3-for-4 with a homer, a double, two runs scored and two RBI in Monday's loss to Detroit.

    Urshela knocked a solo home run off of Beau Brieske in the sixth inning and added an RBI double in the eighth. The 30-year-old has produced three hits on three occasions over his last seven games, boosting his season slash line to .272/.331/.401 through 166 plate appearances. During that seven-game stretch, Urshela is hitting .414 with three extra-base hits and eight RBI.

  • Jose Ramirez 3B | CLE

    Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Picks up three RBI in win

    Ramirez went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Monday's 7-3 win over the Royals.

    Ramirez opened the scoring with an RBI single in the first inning before adding a two-run homer in the fifth. He's posted multiple RBI in five of his last nine contests, and he leads the majors with 51 this season. The star third baseman has added a .297/.391/.648 slash line with 13 homers, 28 runs scored, six stolen bases, four triples and 11 doubles in 44 games overall.

  • Max Muncy 3B | LAD

    Dodgers' Max Muncy: To ramp up activity shortly

    Muncy (elbow) is expected to be sent to Camelback Ranch within the next few days to start ramping back up, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

    Muncy was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday due to left elbow inflammation, but he was with the team Monday and has already been starting to swing a bat, per Hoornstra. The infielder can return from the IL as early as June 5, though a timetable for his activation has yet to be established at this point.

  • Brian Anderson RF | ATL

    Marlins' Brian Anderson: Remains sidelined

    Anderson (back) remains on the bench Monday against the Rockies, Joe Frisaro of ManOnSecondBaseball.com reports.

    Anderson was scratched Saturday against Atlanta with lower-back spasms and remained on the bench Sunday. He'll sit for the third straight game Monday, with his expected return date not yet clear.

  • Jose Miranda 3B | MIN

    Twins' Jose Miranda: Back in big leagues

    Miranda was recalled by the Twins on Monday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

    Miranda was optioned Sunday that Royce Lewis could take his place on the roster, but he'll return one day later as Lewis hits the injured list with a bone bruise in his right knee. Miranda hit a very disappointing .164/.200/.284 in 19 games prior to his demotion, but that brief stretch isn't enough to conclude that he doesn't have what it takes to succeed at the highest level.
