  • David Fletcher 2B | ATL

    Angels' David Fletcher: Doubles twice, drives in two

    Fletcher went 2-for-4 with two doubles, two RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 4-2 win over Oakland.

    Fletcher knocked a two-run double in the second inning before coming around to score on a Phil Gosselin single. It was the 26-year-old's first game with multiple extra-base hits this season and he raised his OPS to .602. He's scored 27 runs and driven in 16.

  • Tim Anderson 2B | LAA

    White Sox's Tim Anderson: Steals base Sunday

    Anderson went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 3-1 win over Baltimore.

    Anderson got aboard with a single in the seventh inning, then stole second and advanced to third on an error. The shortstop came home on a go-ahead RBI triple from Nick Madrigal. Anderson is now 9-for-11 in stolen base attempts this year. He's added five home runs, 17 RBI, 31 runs scored and a .293/.330/.425 slash line in 40 games as the White Sox's usual leadoff hitter.

  • Aledmys Diaz 1B | HOU

    Astros' Aledmys Diaz: Filling in at DH

    Diaz went 1-for-5 with a walk in Saturday's 11-8 extra-innings loss to the Padres.

    Diaz made his second consecutive start as the designated hitter and third overall (he had one start in LF) as the Astros work around injuries to Yordan Alvarez (wrist) and Michael Brantley (hamstring).

  • Carlos Correa SS | HOU

    Astros' Carlos Correa: Slugs eighth homer

    Correa went 2-for-4 with a home run, two walks and three total RBI in Saturday's 12-inning loss versus San Diego.

    Correa opened the scoring in the contest with a two-run shot to right field in the fourth inning. He later knocked in another run with a double in the 10th, though Houston couldn't secure the victory. Saturday marked the third straight game in which Correa has reached at least three times. He has collected five hits (including two homers) and six walks over that span.

  • J.P. Crawford SS | SEA

    Mariners' J.P. Crawford: Blasts second homer

    Crawford went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's 3-2 win over Texas.

    Crawford led off the seventh with home run to right off Texas starter Mike Foltynewicz to break a 1-1 tie. This was Crawford's second home run in 52 games this year after hitting two in 53 last season, as he obviously isn't much of a power threat.

  • Royals' Adalberto Mondesi: Blasts first home run

    Mondesi went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a stolen base during Saturday's 6-5 loss to the Twins.

    The 25-year-old took Taylor Rogers deep with a two-run shot during the ninth inning for his first homer of the season, which brought the Royals within a run. Mondesi is 7-for-18 with a home run, three doubles, three RBI and a stolen bases through five games since being activated from the injured list Tuesday.

  • Carlos Correa SS | HOU

    Astros' Carlos Correa: On base four times in loss

    Correa went 1-for-2 with three walks and a run scored in Friday's 10-3 extra-innings loss to the Padres.

    Two of the free passes were intentional, as San Diego elected to go after Chas McCormick and the bottom of the Houston order rather than deal with Correa. It all still counts in OBP leagues though, and over his last 14 games the shortstop is slashing .360/.475/.540 with two homers, seven RBI and 12 runs.

  • Tim Anderson 2B | LAA

    White Sox's Tim Anderson: Back in action as expected

    Anderson (thumb) will return to the lineup as expected Friday against the Orioles, leading off and playing shortstop.

    Anderson missed the last two games due to general soreness, but the White Sox never seemed particularly concerned with the issue. He'd been in a bit of a slump over his last seven games, going 3-for-30 at the plate, but the team will hope he's refreshed and ready to go following the pair of days off.

  • Yu Chang SS | TB

    Indians' Yu Chang: Notches first steal

    Chang went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Thursday's 5-2 win over Detroit.

    Chang hasn't seen much playing time lately -- he's played in only 12 games in May. The infielder is slashing a meager .149/.183/.209 with no home runs, six RBI, six runs scored and a stolen base through 71 plate appearances. He started at shortstop Thursday in place of Amed Rosario (hand). With another utilityman in Owen Miller on the big-league roster, Chang's path to playing time has gotten a bit more difficult.

  • Bo Bichette 3B | NYM

    Blue Jays' Bo Bichette: Homers in both ends of doubleheader

    Bichette went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in a loss to the Yankees in the second game of Thursday's doubleheader.

    Bichette played long ball in the matinee and followed up with another homer in the nightcap, his 11th this season. His batting average could use some work (.272), but Bichette is on a 30-homer pace and he's running more than he did his first couple years in the majors. He's a fantasy star with superstar upside.
