Correa went 3-for-5 with a triple, two RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning victory over the A's.

The young shortstop, who is starting to come on at the plate, was the hero Saturday after singling in George Springer with the winning run in the 12th inning. The 21-year-old now has his average up to .267 on the strength of a seven-game hitting streak, and curiously has all three of his triples on the season over the first four games of June. Correa also has four multi-hit outings over his last six contests.

Bogaerts went 3-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in Saturday's 6-4 victory over the Blue Jays.

One day after seeing his 26-game hitting streak snapped, Bogaerts was right back at it with his fourth multi-hit effort in the last seven games. After generating a .395 average in May, the 23-year-old standout has picked up right where he left off and is now slashing .353/.421/.412 in his first four games of June.

O'Malley is starting in center field and leading off Saturday against the Rangers.

He hasn't produced since joining the big league club, but he's an intriguing bargain play in daily leagues Saturday, due to the fact he's leading off and facing a lefty (Martin Perez). Nori Aoki should continue to start in center field most days while Leonys Martin (hamstring) is out.

Bogaerts' 26-game hitting streak was snapped in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Blue Jays, as he only managed two walks and a run scored in three at-bats.

The young superstar's impressive stretch at the plate came to an end, but he still managed to reach safely for the 27th consecutive game by drawing a pair of free passes. Bogaerts is currently surpassing his very impressive 2015, and is slashing .343/.397/.500 despite the 0-for-3 night Friday.

Seager went 3-for-4 with three solo home runs during Friday's win against the Braves.

The young shortstop put the Dodgers' offense on his back Friday night, providing all of the run support necessary for his club to emerge with the victory. After a quiet April (.707 OPS, two homers), Seager has gone deep 10 times in his last 94 at-bats dating back to May 11. The big night Friday pushed his season line to .283/.338/.511 -- a 46-point boost to his slugging percentage for the year.

Turner went 3-for-3 with a double and a walk in Friday's 7-2 loss to the Reds.

The dynamic rookie made quite a splash in his 2016 debut, an extension of the success he'd been experiencing at the Triple-A level this season. Turner's promotion to the big league club has been termed as strictly temporary by manager Dusty Baker, but the 22-year-old will certainly attempt to make an impression during whatever stretch of time he does have at his disposal.

Manager Dusty Baker said Friday that Turner's promotion "is a weekend thing," James Wagner of the Washington Post reports.

The Nats brought up the heralded prospect Friday with Ryan Zimmerman going on paternity leave, and there has been speculation Turner could stick long term now that the organization has gained an extra year of control. Baker indicated Turner will go back to Triple-A once Zimmerman returns, although it shouldn't be long before Turner's up for good, and he projects as a prolific source of speed once in a regular role. Turner is starting at second base and batting second Friday with Daniel Murphy at first base.

Swanson, 22, is batting .273/.362/.438 with four home runs and 15 RBI in 30 games since being promoted to Double-A.

Swanson has hit a bit of a snag of late, batting just .239 with 10 strikeouts over his last 10 games. Ozzie Albies also remains ahead of him on the depth chart at Triple-A, though Albies is not exactly scalding the ball right now either. With the Braves headed nowhere this season, there could be no rush to promote Swanson to the big leagues.

Turner is in the lineup Friday against the Reds, starting at second base and batting second in the order.

The highly-touted prospect was recalled earlier Friday with Ryan Zimmerman going on the paternity list and manager Dusty Baker wasted no time getting Turner into the mix. He'll take over at second base while Daniel Murphy slides over to first base Friday. Turner can not only hit for average, given his .310 mark at Triple-A, but he's a threat on the base paths as well with 17 steals on 17 attempts at Syracuse this season.

Turner was recalled from Triple-A on Friday, MASN's Mark Zuckerman reports.

It is unclear how long Turner will be up with the big league club, as this was the corresponding move to Ryan Zimmerman being placed on paternity leave. However, Turner should be owned in most formats, as the Nationals have waited long enough to gain an extra year of control even if they keep him up for the rest of the season, factoring in his time on the active roster in 2015. Danny Espinosa sports a .637 OPS, and while he has offered strong defense at shortstop, Turner offers a pretty clear overall upgrade at this point. The 13th overall pick in the 2014 draft, Turner has really impressed at every stop, and that has continued this year at Triple-A. He is slashing .310/.376/.472 with three homers and is a perfect 17-for-17 on stolen base attempts.
