Fletcher went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and a run in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Dodgers.

Hits were hard to come by for both teams in the contest, and Fletcher accounted for two of the Angels' six base knocks with a pair of singles. He scored a run in the third inning and stole his second base of the campaign in the eighth. During his current five-game hitting streak, Fletcher is batting .370 (10-for-27) to boost his overall season average to .280.

Adames went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Athletics.

Adames came up huge with a game-tying three-run shot in the fifth inning off Cole Irvin. Although the 25-year-old shortstop entered Sunday in a massive slump, the crucial homer might have earned him a spot in the lineup for the first game of Tuesday's homestand against the Yankees.

Bichette went 2-for-4 with a double, a run scored and two RBI in Sunday's 7-4 loss to Houston.

Down 7-0, the Blue Jays made a push with a four-run fifth inning that included Bichette's two-run double. He came around to score that inning on a Vladimir Guerrero base knock. The 23-year-old improved his season slash line to .267/.310/.496 with 15 extra-base hits and 20 RBI.

Correa is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Manager Dusty Baker will extend Correa a day off while he's stuck in a 1-for-27 slump at the plate that has dropped his season average to .246. Robel Garcia steps in at shortstop for Correa in the series finale.

Bogaerts went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Saturday's 11-6 win over the Orioles.

His sixth-inning blast off Tyler Wells capped the scoring for the Red Sox on the night. The shortstop is locked in at the plate, and over the last eight games Bogaerts has gone 14-for-33 (.424) with four of his seven homers on the season, adding eight RBI and 11 runs for good measure.

Mondesi (oblique) still doesn't have a timetable to begin a rehab assignment, Lynn Worthy of The Kansas City Star reports.

Mondesi will travel to the Royals' team facility in Arizona on Saturday, and he should be able to ramp up his activity level while he's there. However, it's not yet clear when the shortstop could appear in live games as he continues to recover from a right oblique strain.

Adames isn't starting Saturday against the Athletics.

Adames has gone 3-for-14 with a run, a walk and nine strikeouts in his last four games. Joey Wendle will shift to shortstop while Yandy Diaz plays third base and Yoshi Tsutsugo starts at first base.

Fletcher went 3-for-5 with a double, two runs and three RBI in Friday's 9-2 victory over the Dodgers.

The second baseman rapped a two-run single in the second inning and plated another run with a double in the sixth. The three-hit game was Fletcher's second of the campaign and extended his on-base streak to 12 contests. He is slashing .276/.300/.306 overall this season.

Correa went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 10-4 win over Toronto.

Correa's second-inning blast snapped an 0-for-19 skid and plated Yuli Gurriel in front of him. It was his fifth home run of the season, and Correa now has 16 RBI over 31 games.

Crawford went 3-for-3 with a two-run homer and a second run scored in Friday's 5-4 win over Texas.

Crawford's fourth-inning shot knotted the game up at 4-4 and gave him his first long ball of the season. The 26-year-old has three multi-hit performances over his last three games to improve his season slash line to .267/.336/.343.
