Paredes went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer in Sunday's win over the Angels.

Paredes took Kyle Hendricks deep to cap off a five-run second inning. It was Paredes' third straight game with a home run after a 12-game drought to begin the year. He owns a .276/.382/.448 slash line with four extra-base hits and nine RBI through 68 plate appearances.

Caballero went 1-for-3 with a walk, one RBI, one run scored and two steals in Sunday's 8-3 win over Atlanta.

Caballero was a thorn in Atlanta's side throughout the game, driving in a run in the first inning, scoring in the fourth and notching his first multi-steal effort of the season. The 28-year-old is off to a hot start in 2025, slashing .333/.455/.556 with a home run, eight RBI, three runs scored and five steals across 33 plate appearances.

Candelario started at first base and went 0-for-4 in Sunday's 4-0 win over the Pirates.

Candelario made a second straight start at first base with Christian Encarnacion-Strand unavailable due to back and hamstring injuries. However, Candelario is 1-for-25 over the last seven games.

Marte started at third base and went 0-for-2 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 4-0 win over the Pirates.

Marte walked and recorded his first steal of the season in the fifth inning before coming home to score on a force-out. He made a second consecutive start, as Jeimer Candelario was needed at first base with Christian Encarnacion-Strand nursing back and hamstring injuries.

Garcia went 3-for-4 with a two-run double in Sunday's win over the Guardians.

Garcia singled twice, but his most important hit was a go-ahead two-run double in the fifth inning. It was his first extra-base knock since April 4 and his fourth multi-hit performance of the season. Garcia is now slashing .300/.321/.500 with six extra-base hits and nine RBI through 15 games.

Clement went 4-for-5 with a double, two runs scored and a stolen base in Sunday's 7-6 extra-innings win over the Orioles.

Clement snapped out of a 1-for-22 slump to open April with a breakout performance Sunday, also notching his first stolen base of the season. The 29-year-old has appeared in 15 of the Blue Jays' 16 games this season, but he's hitting a disappointing .194 with four RBI, three runs scored and a steal across 42 plate appearances.

Mastrobuoni will start at third base and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Rangers.

Mastrobuoni will stick in the lineup for a fourth straight game and will make his third consecutive start at the hot corner while Jorge Polanco (side) is limited to DH duties. Polanco is believed to be at least one or two weeks away from being ready to play the field, so Mastrobuoni could continue to benefit from extra opportunities. The 29-year-old is hitting .316 through his first 10 games with the Mariners, but he hasn't provided much help in the counting categories (zero home runs, one stolen base, three runs and zero RBI).

The Mariners selected Williamson's contract from Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday.

Though he's not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers, Williamson could end up getting a long look at third base while Jorge Polanco remains limited to DH duties due to side soreness. The 57th overall pick in the 2023 First-Year Player Draft, Williamson compiled a .769 OPS and stole 19 bags in 25 attempts over 541 plate appearances between Double-A Arkansas and High-A Everett in 2024. He was slashing .281/.317/.333 with three extra-base hits (all doubles) and two stolen bases over 14 games for Tacoma prior to being called up.

Baez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

Baez had started in each of the last six games -- three at shortstop, three at third base -- while going 7-for-21 with two doubles, two walks, two RBI and a run. Though Baez should start consistently against left-handed pitching and see semi-regular playing time against right-handers, Zach McKinstry and Trey Sweeney still appear to be ahead of him on the depth chart at third base and shortstop, respectively.

Hayes is not in the Pirates' starting lineup against the Reds on Sunday.

Hayes will sit after going 0-for-6 with two walks and three strikeouts across his last two outings. Isiah Kiner-Falefa will shift over to third base while Tsung-Che Cheng gets the start at shortstop.
