Rizzo went 1-for-5 with a two-run homer in New York's win over the Blue Jays on Saturday.

Rizzo finally joined the party in the bottom of the fifth with a two-run shot off Mitch White to score Aaron Judge and increase New York's lead to six runs. It was the first baseman's first home run of the season and he's now hit safely in three straight games after starting the month 0-for-7.

Weissert (0-1) was charged with the loss against the Angels on Saturday. He allowed two unearned runs on one hit and one walk while striking out one over 1.1 innings.

Weissert maintained a streak of five appearances without allowing an earned run but was victimized by shaky infield defense behind him. The right-hander has allowed three hits and two walks while striking out five over 4.2 innings.

Judge went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, an additional run and two walks in Saturday's 9-8 win against Toronto.

Judge set the tone early for New York, bashing a 425-foot, two-run homer off Blue Jays ace Kevin Gausman in the first inning. The long ball was the slugger's second of the season, both of which have come over his past three contests. Judge went 3-for-24 with just one RBI over his first six games of the campaign but appears to be heating up, going 4-for-9 with the two homers and five RBI over his subsequent three contests.

Torres went 1-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in New York's win over Toronto on Saturday. He also walked and stole a base.

Torres extended New York's lead with a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the second and later swiped a bag before scoring on a single from Juan Soto in the sixth. The second baseman also added a double late and has now hit safely in three straight. After batting just .133 through four games in March, Torres is now batting .300 in April with two RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base.

Campbell allowed one hit and one walk over a scoreless third of an inning and was charged with a blown save in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Angels.

Campbell came on during the sixth inning when infield misplays led to two runs; shortstop Pablo Reyes failed to complete a force out at second base, and third baseman Rafael Devers followed with an error. Campbell finished out the inning with no runs charged to him, his fourth consecutive outing without a run allowed. He's allowed one run on three hits and a walk while striking four over 4.1 innings.

Neto went 2-for-4 with a stolen base against the Red Sox in Saturday's 2-1 win.

Neto was productive from the bottom of the order in a game during which the Angels managed just six hits. The 23-year-old collected his second multi-hit game of the campaign, both of which have come over his past three contests. It's been a slow start for Neto, as he's slashing .241/.267/.310 with no homers and four RBI through 30 plate appearances. Saturday's theft was his first successful stolen base in three attempts.

Turner is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.

Turner's absence doesn't appear to be anything more than a maintenance day as the Blue Jays and Yankees wrap up their series with an afternoon contest that begins at 1:35 p.m. ET. With Turner on the bench, George Springer will get a day out of the outfield and will serve as Toronto's designated hitter.

Reyes started at shortstop and went 0-for-3 in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Angels.

Reyes got the start after the Red Sox placed primary shortstop Trevor Story on the 10-day injured list with a dislocated left shoulder. The fill-in shortstop had an issue during the Angels' two-run sixth-inning; Reyes was unable to get the ball out of his glove in time to get a force-out at second base that would have ended the inning. It's not clear if he's the long-term solution to replace Story, who could have a lengthy absence, as the Red Sox summoned David Hamilton from Triple-A Worcester.

Stanton went 3-for-4 with a solo home run in New York's win over the Blue Jays on Saturday.

Stanton followed up Aaron Judge's two-run homer with a solo shot of his own just two batters later in the bottom of the first, giving the Yankees an early 3-0 lead. He also added two singles in the contest, giving the slugger his first multi-hit performance of the season. Stanton had gone hitless through New York's first three games to open this month and is still hitting just .214 on the season after Saturday's three-hit effort.

Rengifo went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and a run in Saturday's 2-1 win against Boston.

Pitching was prevalent in the contest, as the teams combined for just three runs and nine hits. Rengifo had two of the Angels' six knocks, and his legs were critical in the lone inning during which the team scored, as he beat out a two-out grounder for an infield single, stole second base and eventually crossed the plate on a Rafael Devers error. Rengifo appears to be fully recovered after departing early from Wednesday's contest against Miami as a result of feeling lightheaded and subsequently sitting out Friday's series opener against the Red Sox.
