Carlos Correa SS | HOU
Twins' Carlos Correa: Exits after collision
Correa was removed from Thursday's game against the Orioles due to an apparent injury, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.
Correa collided with Byron Buxton while chasing down a flyball in the third inning. Both players were down for a moment before returning to their feet, though Correa seemed to get the worst of it and was immediately lifted from the game. It's unclear exactly what kind of injury the infielder is dealing with, but the Twins should provide some more details once they take a closer look at him.

Kevin McGonigle SS | DET
Tigers' Kevin McGonigle: On rehab assignment
McGonigle (ankle) is 2-for-7 with two walks and zero strikeouts through three rehab games with Single-A Lakeland.
He will likely be activated at High-A West Michigan in the coming days after missing five weeks with a right ankle sprain. McGonigle is one of the best pure hitters in the minors and will likely set himself up for a promotion to Double-A Erie, along with Max Clark, sometime this summer.

Chase Meidroth 2B | CHW
White Sox's Chase Meidroth: Receiving afternoon off
Meidroth is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Reds.
Meidroth will get some rest in Thursday's day game after he had started in each of the last four games while going 4-for-16 with a double, two walks, two runs and one RBI. Jacob Amaya will replace Meidroth at shortstop in the series finale in Cincinnati, while third baseman Miguel Vargas elevates to the leadoff spot.

Josh H. Smith 2B | TEX
Rangers' Josh Smith: Collects two hits in return
Smith started at shortstop and went 2-for-5 with a run scored in Wednesday's 8-3 win over the Rockies.
Smith returned to the lineup after missing two games with a sore lower back. He was back at shortstop, where the Rangers have a need after the club placed Corey Seager (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list. Texas manager Bruce Bochy said it's possible Seager will need more than the 10-day minimum, so Smith should see ample opportunities as a fill-in at short.

Jordan Lawlar LF | ARI
Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Enters mid-game at second base
Lawlar pinch hit for Ketel Marte (hip) and went 0-for-1 in Wednesday's 8-7 win over the Giants.
Lawlar finished up the game at second base for Marte, who was removed as a precaution with stiffness in his hip. This was Lawlar's second appearance since his call-up from Triple-A Reno; he served as the starting shortstop Tuesday. Marte is expected to play when the Diamondbacks resume their schedule Friday at home against the Rockies.

Xander Bogaerts SS | SD
Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Goes yard Wednesday
Bogaerts went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Angels.
Bogaerts hasn't shown much in the way of power overall in 2025, but he's now smashed three home runs in his last 14 games. Despite batting just .245 during this period, the veteran infielder does have 15 RBI and two stolen bases over his last 49 at-bats. As long as he maintains a spot in the heart of San Diego's batting order, Bogaerts should continue to see plenty of RBI chances going forward.

C.J. Abrams SS | WAS
Nationals' CJ Abrams: Reaches safely four times
Abrams went 2-for-3 with a run scored during Wednesday's 5-4 win over Atlanta.
Abrams got on base in four of his five plate appearances, tallying a pair of singles and a pair of walks for his 10th multi-hit performance of the year. The 24-year-old shortstop has been exceptional this season, slashing .311/.375/.525 across 137 plate appearances to go along with five home runs, 18 runs, 15 RBI and eight stolen bases.

Masyn Winn SS | STL
Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Strong showing Wednesday
Winn went 5-for-8 with a home run, two walks, three RBI and three runs scored as the Cardinals split Wednesday's doubleheader with the Phillies.
Winn did most of his damage in a 4-for-5 performance in the nightcap, which included a solo home run and a pair of RBI singles. The shortstop has hit safely in six of his last seven games, going 10-for-28 (.357) with two homers and seven RBI in that stretch. His big performance Wednesday lifted him to a .281/.371/.465 slash line with five homers, 15 RBI, 23 runs scored and two stolen bases over 33 contests this season. Aside from brief absences for back spasms and an ankle sprain, Winn has unsurprisingly been an everyday presence in the Cardinals' lineup this year.

Trey Sweeney SS | DET
Tigers' Trey Sweeney: Stays hot in May
Sweeney went 1-for-2 with an RBI single and a sac fly in Wednesday's 6-5 win over Boston.
Sweeney put the Tigers on the board in the second inning on an RBI single and tacked on another run in the sixth on a sacrifice fly. Sweeney has logged at least one RBI in each of his last three games, and since the beginning of May he has gone 19-for-47 (.404) with three home runs and 13 RBI.

J.P. Crawford SS | SEA
Mariners' J.P. Crawford: Managing shoulder tightness
Crawford was scratched from the lineup before Wednesday's game against the Yankees due to shoulder tightness, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.
The severity of Crawford's injury remains unknown, but he can be considered day-to-day until the team provides reason to believe otherwise. Leo Rivas and Miles Mastrobuoni are the leading candidates to pick up playing time at shortstop if Crawford has to miss any additional time.
