  • Masyn Winn SS | STL

    Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Tallies four hits in win

    Winn went 4-for-5 with two doubles, one RBI and three runs scored in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Orioles.

    Winn was a thorn in the Orioles' side all game, notching his second four-hit game of the season and scoring runs in the fourth, fifth and seventh innings. Over his last 10 contests, the shortstop has logged three multi-hit efforts with three extra-base hits, five RBI and eight runs scored. On the year, he's slashing a solid .278/.357/.438 with six home runs, 20 RBI, 33 runs scored and two steals across 186 plate appearances.

  • Pirates' Isiah Kiner-Falefa: Provides offensive spark in win

    Kiner-Falefa went 3-for-4 with two doubles, two RBI and three runs scored in Wednesday's 10-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Kiner-Falefa helped spark a late surge from the Pirates' offense, reaching base and scoring in the fifth, sixth, and eighth innings. Since returning from the injured list May 12, the shortstop has slashed .327/.362/.473 with six extra-base hits, six RBI, nine runs scored and two steals. He's had a quietly productive season, slashing .297/.343/.381 with one home run, 13 RBI, 20 runs scored and eight steals across 167 plate appearances.

  • Aaron Schunk 3B | ATL

    Rockies' Aaron Schunk: Sent to Triple-A

    The Rockies optioned Schunk to Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday.

    The 27-year-old's demotion will create space on the big-league roster for the signing of veteran infielder Orlando Arcia. Schunk has gone 6-for-28 with a double and a run scored in 11 big-league games this season.

  • Xavier Edwards 2B | MIA

    Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Short rehab stint on tap

    Manager Clayton McCullough said Wednesday that Edwards (back) will play in a couple rehab games with Triple-A Jacksonville before rejoining the Marlins "very soon," Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

    The 25-year-old has been sidelined by a back strain since May 14 and will need a couple games in the minors to get back up to speed before being activated by Miami. After posting a .328/.397/.423 slash line with 31 steals in 70 games last season, Edwards got off to a slower start in 2025 with a .629 OPS and 11 steals through 42 contests.

  • Reds' Elly De La Cruz: Homers twice Tuesday

    De La Cruz went 2-for-4 with two solo homers, a walk and three runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Royals.

    De La Cruz homered in consecutive at-bats, hitting a 436-foot blast to center in the fourth followed by a 451-foot shot to right center in the sixth. He now has three multi-hit efforts in his last four games. Over that span, he's homered three times, has seven RBI and has scored eight times. De La Cruz is up to 11 home runs on the season to go along with 17 steals, and he is one of 11 players to reach the 40-RBI mark.

  • Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Posts three-hit effort

    Bogaerts went 3-for-4 with a walk, one RBI and one run scored in Tuesday's 8-6 win over the Marlins.

    This was Bogaerts' first multi-hit effort since May 17 versus the Mariners. The shortstop has started to get in a groove, going 5-for-12 over his last three contests. He's back up to a .243/.332/.343 slash line with three home runs, 10 stolen bases, 21 RBI, 22 runs scored and nine doubles through 53 contests. While he's not hitting as well as usual, the 32-year-old remains in a starting role.

  • Willy Adames SS | SF

    Giants' Willy Adames: Multi-hit effort in defeat

    Adames went 2-for-4 in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Tigers.

    Adames singled twice in the loss, delivering his first multi-hit performance since May 16. The 29-year-old shortstop had gone 0-for-11 over his previous three games, and he has been struggling of late. Adames is now slashing .210/.288/.336 with 30 runs scored, 25 RBI, 16 extra-base hits -- including five homers -- two stolen bases and a 26.3 percent strikeout rate across 240 plate appearances this season.

  • Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Logs steal Monday

    Bogaerts went 1-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Monday's 4-3 extra-innings win over the Marlins.

    Bogaerts continues to be a factor on the basepaths with four steals over his last nine games. His hitting has cooled off in that stretch -- he's gone a modest 6-for-30 (.200) with three walks and six strikeouts, and he hasn't logged an RBI or an extra-base hit since he homered May 14 versus the Angels. The slump has the shortstop down to a .232/.320/.333 slash line with three home runs, 10 steals, 20 RBI and 21 runs scored over 52 contests this season.

  • Orlando Arcia SS | MIN

    Rockies' Orlando Arcia: Headed to Colorado

    Arcia agreed to a one-year, major-league contract with the Rockies on Monday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

    Arcia didn't have to wait long to find work after being released by Atlanta on Sunday. Once his deal with Colorado is finalized, he'll look to join his new club on the current road trip in Chicago, per Alvarez-Montes. Though Arcia has played primarily at shortstop during his career, the Rockies have Ezequiel Tovar locked in at that position on a long-term contract, so Arcia will likely end up seeing most of his opportunities at second base. Rookie Adael Amador has been serving as the Rockies' primary option at the keystone, but he's produced a lowly .473 OPS over 98 plate appearances and could end up being supplanted by Arcia.

  • Xavier Edwards 2B | MIA

    Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Taking part in baseball activities

    Edwards (back) has been participating in baseball activities, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

    Edwards was placed on the 10-day injured list May 18 due to a left mid-back strain and has since been given the green light to resume baseball activities. The club has yet to provide a firm timeline for the 25-year-old, and it remains to be seen whether a rehab assignment will be required before activating Edwards from the IL.
