Arroyo is hitting .288/.375/.528 with six homers and seven steals across 31 games for Single-A Modesto.

The 18-year-old has an active 12-game hitting streak going and is showing uncommon plate discipline for his age with a 10.4 percent walk rate and 19.4 percent strikeout rate. A second-round pick by the Mariners last year, Arroyo is a switch-hitter whose pop and defensive ability should ultimately write his ticket to the big leagues. You can still snag him in a lot of dynasty formats, but that may not be the case for long.

Mateo (shoulder) is starting Wednesday against the Yankees, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Mateo was out of the lineup for the last two games due to chest and shoulder contusions, but he'll start at shortstop and bat seventh Wednesday. Over his last five games, he's gone 4-for-17 with a homer, a double, two runs and a stolen base.

Martinez is hitting .231/.303/.574 with 11 homers and a 6:37 BB:K across 29 games for Double-A New Hampshire.

He's done exactly one thing well this year, and that's hitting the ball over the fence. In fact, he's homered in three of the Fisher Cats' last four games -- and he even drew two walks Tuesday, representing a full third of his season total (of course, he also struck out three times in that game.). There's some bad BABIP luck (.233) at play here, but a 31.1 percent strikeout rate and 5.3 percent walk rate don't lend themselves to a good batting average. The good news is that Martinez, just 20 years old, is one of the youngest players in Double-A. Managers in dynasty formats would do well to stay patient with him.

Berti (illness) rejoined the Marlins on Tuesday but has yet to be activated from the COVID-19-related injured list, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Berti was away from the team for approximately a week and a half before reporting to LoanDepot Park after he completed his quarantine. Because of the time he missed, Berti will likely need to turn in a few workouts over the next couple days before potentially heading out on a minor-league rehab assignment this weekend. If all goes well, Berti could make his return from the IL early next week. Upon his activation, Berti will likely fill a utility role for Miami.

Crawford went 3-for-5 with a triple, an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 10-7 win over the Rockies.

Crawford scored the Giants' second run as a Little League home run, hitting a triple and then heading home after Brendan Rodgers' relay throw to third base ended up in the dugout. That hit snapped Crawford's 0-for-10 skid at the plate over his three previous games. The shortstop also had an RBI single in the sixth inning. He's hitting .220/.309/.350 with three home runs, 15 RBI, 19 runs scored and a stolen base across 139 plate appearances. That general slump compared to 2021 has seen Crawford drop to the bottom half of the order after starting the season most often hitting third or fourth.

Allen was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Allen was sent down in early May, but he'll rejoin the major-league club after spending just over two weeks in Las Vegas. He's appeared in eight games for the Athletics this year and has hit .211 with two doubles, two runs and a stolen base. The 23-year-old should serve as infield depth now that he's back in the big leagues.

Turner is starting Wednesday against the Diamondbacks.

Turner has been dealing with a sore calf recently but hasn't missed any time and remains "playable," per manager Dave Roberts. The 28-year-old is in the midst of a 10-game hitting streak in which he's slashed .359/.444/.538 with a homer, four doubles, seven runs, seven RBI and two stolen bases.

Rojas went 3-for-4 with a double, a solo home run and a second run scored in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Nationals.

He got the Marlins on the board with a fifth-inning shot off Joan Adon. Rojas has only two homers on the year -- the other coming April 29 -- but the shortstop has been looking better in May, slashing .271/.300/.396 over his last 14 games.

The Twins reinstated Correa (finger) from the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

Correa sustained a finger injury May 5, and although he avoided a fracture, he still sat out nearly two weeks. The 27-year-old will serve as Minnesota's clear top shortstop now that he's healthy, while Royce Lewis will head to the minors to get more consistent playing time at positions other than shortstop. Prior to his absence, Correa hit .255/.320/.372 with two homers, five doubles, 12 runs and 11 RBI over 24 games.

The Brewers placed Adames on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a high left ankle sprain.

The transaction is retroactive to Monday, so Adames will be eligible to come off the IL as soon as May 26. Though Adames has shown improvement since initially suffering the injury Sunday, the progress he made wasn't significant enough for the Brewers to feel optimistic about his chances of returning to the lineup by the end of the week. While Adames is on the shelf, Luis Urias is expected to take over as the everyday shortstop, with Milwaukee likely to run out a platoon of Jace Peterson and Mike Brosseau at third base.
