Paris went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer and a walk in Tuesday's win over the Rays.

Paris' two-run shot in the second inning was his third of the year. He's homered in two straight contests and now has four extra-base hits through 26 plate appearances. Paris owns a terrific .429/.538/.952 slash line as he continues to carve out a more regular role in the lineup.

Baz allowed two runs on three hits and four walks over seven innings in a no-decision Tuesday. He struck out six during the loss to the Angels.

Baz faced a few threats, but the lone blemish on his outing was Kyren Paris' two-run shot in the second inning. Baz threw 58 of 96 pitches for strikes but generated only eight whiffs. He forced 13 swinging strikes in his first start of the season. Baz is sporting a 1.38 ERA with a 16:4 K:BB through 13 innings. His next outing is lined up to be at home against Atlanta this weekend.

Jansen allowed two hits in a scoreless inning during Tuesday's win against the Rays. He struck out two and earned a save.

Jansen recorded three straight outs to close up the 4-3 win after the Rays put runners on second and third to start the ninth inning. It was his third save of the year and first since March 30. Jansen tossed 15 of 20 pitches for strikes and generated five whiffs. He's thrown five straight scoreless innings to begin the 2025 season.

Lucas (2-0) yielded three hits and a walk over 5.1 innings Tuesday, striking out eight and earning a win over the Red Sox.

Lucas dominated on his way to a second straight win Tuesday. He allowed only one runner to reach scoring position while racking up a career-high eight punchouts. He threw 57 of 82 pitches and generated 12 swinging strikes. Lucas has thrown 10.1 shutout frames with an 11:3 K:BB in two starts. He's currently in line to start in Baltimore this weekend.

Crochet (1-1) yielded four runs (one earned) on five hits and four walks over 5.2 innings Tuesday, striking out five and taking a loss against Toronto.

Crochet rolled through five scoreless frames before unraveling in the sixth inning. He coughed up a solo homer to George Springer before the Blue Jays scored three unearned runs in the inning. Crochet threw a career-high 107 pitches (65 strikes) and forced 11 whiffs. Despite the shaky performance, he owns a 1.45 ERA with a 17:7 K:BB through three starts. Crochet's next outing is projected to be on the road for his first career matchup against the White Sox.

Bichette went 3-for-4 with three RBI and a walk in Tuesday's win over Boston.

Bichette knocked a two-run single in the sixth inning and added another RBI base hit in the eighth. He's already produced five multi-hit performances through 12 games this season; it took him 20 games to reach that mark to begin 2024. Bichette is now slashing .314/.375/.392 with four extra-base hits and seven RBI through 56 plate appearances.

Corbin didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Cubs, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks with no strikeouts in four innings.

Corbin had a rough second inning in his Rangers debut, giving up a leadoff homer to Dansby Swanson and a two-run single to Seiya Suzuki. The veteran left-hander tossed three scoreless innings otherwise, and he was able to throw 74 pitches before his night came to an end. Corbin could have some deep-league streaming appeal at home against the Angels in his next scheduled start, which lines up for early next week.

Langford was removed from Tuesday's game against the Cubs due to right oblique tightness, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Langford was replaced in the field after striking out swinging to end the top of the seventh inning, and he appears to have tweaked the oblique during that at-bat. He's slated to receive an MRI on Wednesday to determine the extent of the damage, per Landry, but Langford said after the game that he isn't too concerned about his latest injury since it doesn't feel as bad as the left oblique strain he suffered during spring training. If Langford ends up missing any amount of time, Josh Smith and Kevin Pillar would be in the running for additional playing time in the outfield. The Rangers could also call up Dustin Harris from Triple-A Round Rock to provide another option who's capable of playing all three outfield spots.

Lopez was removed from his start in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Royals due to right hamstring tightness, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports. He struck out six and gave up an unearned run on three hits and one walk across 4.2 innings while taking a no-decision.

Lopez walked off the field under his own power after suffering the injury, but the Twins won't know the extent of the issue until he undergoes an MRI on Wednesday. He's tentatively scheduled to make his next start against the Tigers over the weekend, but if Lopez is forced to go on the injured list, Zebby Matthews would likely be in line for a call-up from Triple-A St. Paul to replace him in the rotation.

Canha was removed from Tuesday's game against the Twins due to left hip soreness, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports

Canha ran into the outfield wall while attempting to catch a flyball in the fifth inning. He remained in the game immediately after the incident but was replaced on defense when the Royals took the field in the top of the sixth. The severity of his injury remains unknown, but fantasy managers can consider him day-to-day for the time being.
