Davis went 1-for-2 with a home run and a walk in Sunday's 7-3 loss to Atlanta.

Davis' second-inning blast was the only damage the Mets could create off Braves starter Julio Teheran. He entered 2019 with five homers in 165 MLB at-bats but already has three in 35 at-bats this season.

Donaldson went 2-for-3 with a home run, two RBI and two walks in Sunday's 7-3 win over the Mets.

The 33-year-old slugger took Mets starter Jacob DeGrom deep in the fifth inning. Donaldson started the year 4-for-27 but is 10-for-26 on his current seven-game hitting streak. He's homered in two straight and has seven extra-base hits during that span.

Candelario went 2-for-4 with a walk and a run scored in Sunday's loss to the Twins.

Candelario batted leadoff with Josh Harrison (shoulder) out of the lineup, and the 25-year-old served as an effective table setter. Candelario is still batting just .208 this season, but he picked up three hits in eight at-bats over the weekend, so perhaps he could be heating up.

Anderson went 1-for-5 with a solo home run, a walk and a stolen base in Sunday's loss to the Phillies.

Anderson tied the game in the sixth with a solo blast to left field, but the Marlins would fall 3-1 in a 14-inning affair. He's now homered in back-to-back contests, though his batting average thus far leaves something to be desired (.228 over 15 games).

Segura went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and two walks in Sunday's win over the Marlins.

With the score tied 1-1 in the 14th inning, Segura took matters into his own hands and launched a two-run blast to left field. The Phillies managed to close things out in the bottom of the inning without issue. The 29-year-old shortstop turned in a solid weekend at the dish, collecting five hits, including two extra-base knocks, during a three-game showdown with Miami.

Moncada went 3-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Yankees.

The stolen base was the first of the season for Moncada, who had been an active base-stealer in the minors but is less interested in that aspect of his game in the majors. Perhaps hitting in the middle of the order hurts him in that aspect. On balance, however, Moncada's productive bat (.889 OPS in 2019) is a welcome sight that helps make up for his lack of steals.

Arenado went 1-for-2 with a three-run home run and two walks in Colorado's 4-0 victory over the Giants on Sunday.

The slugging third baseman had been in a prolonged slump to start the season, but he finally broke out with his first homer of 2019 in this one, tagging Derek Holland for a three-run bomb in the fifth inning. Hopefully this is a sign that Arenado is ready to put the slow start behind him and get back to the form that has made him one of the premier hitters in baseball for the past few seasons.

President of baseball operation Dick Williams said Sunday that Senzel (ankle) could play in extended spring training games by midweek, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

Manager David Bell said Thursday that Senzel was at least a couple weeks away from playing games at any level, but it's unclear if he was strictly referring to the minor leagues. Regardless, the 23-year-old has no firm rehab timeline but could seemingly make his return sometime in May.

Rendon went 1-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Saturday's win over the Pirates.

It's the third baseman's 10th straight game with an extra-base hit, setting a new franchise record. The big-league record is 14 games, a mark shared by a couple of Hall of Famers in Chipper Jones and Paul Waner. Rendon is hitting .412 through 13 games with a .922 SLG thanks to eight doubles and six homers.

Wisdom will start at first base and bat eighth Sunday against the Athletics.

With Rougned Odor (knee) recently joining Ronald Guzman (hamstring) on the shelf, the Rangers have sported a new-look left side of the infield. Wisdom will draw in for Guzman at first base in what marks his fourth consecutive start. The 27-year-old should have a fairly clear path to at-bats until at least one of the two injured players is activated.
