Woo allowed four runs on five hits and a walk over six innings in a no-decision against the Giants on Sunday. He struck out six during the loss.

Woo cruised through three shutout frames before coughing up four runs in the fourth inning. The biggest hiccup was Mike Yastrzemski's three-run shot. Woo had command of the strike zone Sunday, firing 67 of 89 pitches for strikes. He forced 11 whiffs, including seven with his fastball that averaged 96.4 mph. Woo will carry a 3.75 ERA into his next start, which is projected to be at home next weekend against Texas.

Alvarez went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and three RBI in Sunday's 9-7 extra-inning win over the Twins.

Alvarez delivered the first run of the game for Houston in the top of the first inning, driving in Jose Altuve from third base on a sacrifice fly. The 27-year-old later added a single in the top of the fifth before launching a game-tying two-run homer in the ninth, knotting the game up at 7-7. The home run was Alvarez's first of the season, and he's now batting .182 with the long ball, seven RBI, four walks and 11 strikeouts over 33 at-bats in nine games.

Raleigh went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and a walk in Sunday's loss to the Giants.

Raleigh went deep in the third inning for his second long ball of the year after knocking a double in the first. He later singled in the seventh and was intentionally walked in the ninth. Raleigh's first multi-hit game of 2025 boosted his slash line to .222/.349/.417 with three extra-base hits through 43 plate appearances.

Anderson did not factor in the decision during Sunday's win against the Guardians. He yielded two runs on a hit and four walks over five innings and struck out five batters.

Anderson allowed one run through the first three frames before serving up a solo shot off the bat of Kyle Manzardo. Through two starts, Anderson has given up five runs (three homers) across 10 frames. He threw just 49 of 81 pitches for strikes Sunday but forced 10 whiffs, including six with his changeup. Anderson's next outing is lined up to be in Houston next weekend.

Jax pitched one inning, surrendering two runs on three hits while striking out three batters on his way to a blown save in Sunday's 9-7 extra-inning loss to the Astros. He did not factor into the decision.

Jax was tasked with protecting a 7-5 lead in top of the ninth inning and promptly allowed a leadoff single to Isaac Paredes and a subsequent game-tying two-run homer to Yordan Alvarez to open the frame. The right-hander settled in from there, working around a double from Christian Walker and striking out the final three batters of the inning. Jax has now allowed two home runs this season while giving up three runs on six hits and a walk over 2.2 innings in three appearances out of Minnesota's bullpen.

Paddack pitched four-plus innings, allowing four runs (three earned) on seven hits and two walks while striking out two batters in Sunday's 9-7 extra-inning loss to the Astros.

Paddack gave up three singles and a sacrifice fly in the first inning before spinning three consecutive scoreless frames. He then ran into a great deal of trouble to open the top of the fifth, giving up three hits, including a double, and a walk, resulting in two runs scoring before he was pulled from the game. Another run was charged to him after his departure, accounting for the final tally on his scorecard. The right-hander has now surrendered 12 earned runs on 13 hits and six walks while striking out just four batters over 7.1 innings in his first two starts in 2025. Paddack will look to get on track in his next projected start Friday at home versus the Tigers.

Ortiz (0-2) yielded three runs on seven hits over six innings Sunday, striking out three and taking a loss against the Angels.

Ortiz gave up two runs in the second inning, starting with Logan O'Hoppe's solo shot. Jorge Soler later went deep with another solo home run in the sixth. Ortiz has been tagged with 10 runs over 10.2 frames in his first two starts of the 2025 campaign after posting a 3.32 ERA across 135.2 innings with Pittsburgh last season. He's currently in line for a home matchup against the Royals next weekend.

Rodriguez (elbow) will throw another bullpen session Monday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Rodriguez is set to toss his third session during his recovery from right elbow inflammation, which would be another step closer to beginning a minor-league rehab assignment. The hard-throwing right-hander should be stashed in the majority of mixed leagues, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect him back in the Orioles' rotation until late April at the earliest. Cade Povich is currently working as Baltimore's fifth starter, but he's struggled to a 6.10 ERA and 1.94 WHIP over 10.1 innings (two starts) to begin the year.

O'Hoppe went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's win over Cleveland.

O'Hoppe has now gone deep in four consecutive games and has five long balls through 30 plate appearances. The 25-year-old catcher wasted no time Sunday, drilling a solo homer in the second inning. He owns a .345/.367/.862 slash line with nine RBI and a 1:10 BB:K through seven appearances.

Paris went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, two runs scored and a stolen base in Sunday's win over Cleveland.

Paris singled, swiped second base and came around to score in the second inning. He later gave the Angels an insurance run with his solo shot in the eighth. Paris has gone 8-for-18 (.444) with two home runs and four steals through eight games to begin the season. Paris has played center field and second base in 2025 and should continue seeing consistent playing time as long as his bat stays effective.
