Agustin Ramirez C | MIA
Marlins' Agustin Ramirez: Stays hot Tuesday
Ramirez went 3-for-3 with two doubles, one RBI and a walk in Tuesday's win over the Reds.
Ramirez once again sparked Miami's offense, this time with a pair of doubles. He was also caught stealing and has attempted a stolen base in each of his first two MLB appearances. The rookie catcher could provide valuable speed at his position; Ramirez stole 53 bases in 63 attempts over his minor-league career, including 22 in 24 attempts last season. He is 5-for-6 with three doubles in his first two big-league games.

Torrens went 2-for-4 with a two-run single in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Phillies.
Torrens gave the Mets a four-run lead in the seventh inning, when he smacked an 86-mph sweeper from Tanner Banks to left field for a single that brought home Pete Alonso and Mark Vientos. Tuesday marked Torrens' third multi-hit game of 2025, and he's slashing .228/.267/.386 with two runs scored, one home run and eight RBI in 60 plate appearances this season.

Padres' Elias Diaz: Knocks first home run
Diaz went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's win over the Tigers.
Diaz's two-run shot in the second inning ended up being the only offensive production in the 2-0 win. It was his first home run of the year and first hit since April 11. Diaz is slashing .190/.306/.286 through 50 plate appearances.

Carson Kelly C | CHC
Cubs' Carson Kelly: Receiving Tuesday off
Kelly is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Dodgers.
Kelly went 0-for-4 in Sunday's contest but has been one of the biggest stories in baseball early this season with six homers and a 1.502 OPS through 49 plate appearances. The 30-year-old and Miguel Amaya continue to split playing time behind the plate, however, with Amaya getting the start Tuesday.

Patrick Bailey C | SF
Giants' Patrick Bailey: Logs two RBI in win
Bailey went 1-for-3 with two RBI in Monday's 5-2 win over Milwaukee.
Bailey lined an RBI single into right field to put the Giants on the board in the second frame. The 25-year-old added a sacrifice fly in the eighth, driving in San Francisco's final run. Bailey recorded just his second hit over his last five appearances, during which he's gone 2-for-18 with four RBI and a 1:9 BB:K. The switch-hitting catcher is now slashing a lackluster .169/.231/.271 with eight RBI, seven runs scored, five extra-base hits and a 5:23 BB:K across 65 plate appearances.

Ivan Herrera DH | STL
Cardinals' Ivan Herrera: Begins baserunning progression
Herrera (knee) began a baserunning progression Sunday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Herrera did some straight-line running from base to base and will progress to rounding bases as his injured left knee allows. Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said that Herrera has been able to increase other baseball activities without setbacks, and the catcher has also been taking batting practice and catching pitches from a high-velocity pitching machine. Herrera is just past the two-week mark of an absence that's expected to last at least four weeks, and his recovery seems to be coming along well. The young catcher is dealing with a bone bruise in his knee.

Sean Murphy C | ATL
Braves' Sean Murphy: Slugs clutch homer
Murphy went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Monday's 7-6 win against the Cardinals.
Murphy was hitless until the eighth inning, when he pounded a three-run homer to left field to give Atlanta a 7-3 lead. The long ball was the fifth of the season for the veteran catcher in just 11 games, and he now has 11 RBI in what was been a productive beginning to 2025 after Murphy began the campaign on the injured list due to an injury. He's still batting a mediocre .205, but the power output and run production has kept Murphy atop Atlanta's catcher depth chart despite the recent offensive upswing of rookie Drake Baldwin.

Agustin Ramirez C | MIA
Marlins' Agustin Ramirez: Two hits in debut
Ramirez went 2-for-3 with a double, a run scored, a stolen base and a walk in Monday's win over the Reds.
Ramirez singled in his first career MLB at-bat and came around to score during the second inning. His first extra-base knock was a ground-rule double in the seventh. Ramirez got the start behind the plate and his batterymate, Max Meyer, fired six shutout frames with 14 punchouts. Ramirez is one of the team's top prospects and is already building a strong case for regular playing time.

Marlins' Agustin Ramirez: Officially promoted to majors
The Marlins recalled Ramirez from Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.
One of Miami's top prospects, Ramirez was acquired from the Yankees in the Jazz Chisholm trade last summer. The 23-year-old is now set to make his MLB debut after slashing .254/.313/.479 with three home runs, 12 RBI, 13 runs scored and five stolen bases across 80 plate appearances at the Triple-A level. In a corresponding move, the Marlins placed Rob Brantly (lat) on the 10-day injured list.
