Jose Trevino C | CIN
Reds' Jose Trevino: Lands on IL
The Reds placed Trevino (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list Sunday.
Trevino picked up a hamstring injury during Saturday's game against the Guardians and will be out until at least the middle of next week. P.J. Higgins was called up in a corresponding move Sunday to serve as the backup catcher to Tyler Stephenson.

Jake Mangum CF | PIT
Pirates' Jake Mangum: Back from injured list
The Pirates reinstated Mangum (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Sunday.
The 30-year-old landed on the shelf in early May due to a strained left hamstring, but he's rejoining the Pirates on Sunday after a brief stint on the shelf. Mangum has a .260/.333/.288 slash line with no homers, five steals, three RBI and 13 runs in his first 30 games of the season, and he could take over as Pittsburgh's primary right fielder with Ryan O'Hearn (quadriceps) going to the IL.

Ryan O'Hearn 1B | PIT
Pirates' Ryan O'Hearn: Out with quad strain
The Pirates placed O'Hearn on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a right quadriceps strain.
O'Hearn exited Saturday's contest due to right quadriceps discomfort and will now be sidelined until at least the middle of next week after being diagnosed with a strain. The severity of the injury has yet to be disclosed, so it's unclear how long the 32-year-old will actually be sidelined. Jake Mangum (hamstring) was activated from the IL in a corresponding move and figures to pick up the bulk of the available playing time in the outfield while O'Hearn is out.

Joe Mack C | MIA
Marlins' Joe Mack: Taking seat Sunday
Mack is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.
Mack started the first two games of the series in Tampa Bay but will take a seat Sunday after going 1-for-8 with a run and five strikeouts. Liam Hicks is stepping behind the plate in the series finale while Christopher Morel picks up a start at first base.

Miguel Amaya C | CHC
Cubs' Miguel Amaya: Goes deep in loss
Amaya went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 8-3 loss to the White Sox.
Amaya batted ninth and provided a small jolt in the sixth inning when he launched his third home run of the year, though the Cubs already trailed 7-0 at that point. The 27-year-old catcher is in a clear backup role to Carson Kelly at the moment, which limits his overall fantasy upside, but Amaya can provide some offense when given the opportunity to start.

Mookie Betts SS | LAD
Dodgers' Mookie Betts: Belts fourth homer
Betts went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and two total runs scored in Saturday's 15-2 win over the Angels.
Betts logged his first multi-hit effort in five games since he returned from an oblique strain. He's hit two homers in that span, though both have been solo shots. The shortstop is batting .180 with a .695 OPS, four homers, nine RBI, 10 runs scored, one double and no stolen bases over 13 contests this season. Betts can do better, and Saturday's performance could spark his turnaround.

Shohei Ohtani DH | LAD
Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani: Drives in five
Ohtani went 2-for-4 with a triple, a double, two walks, five RBI, a stolen base and two runs scored in Saturday's 15-2 win over the Angels.
Ohtani was held hitless until the eighth inning, when he laced a two-run triple. He added a three-run double in the ninth as the Dodgers ran away with the win. After taking Wednesday and Thursday off from batting amid a slump, Ohtani has gone 3-for-8 with three extra-base hits and three walks over two games against the Angels in this weekend series. Overall, the two-way superstar is batting .247 with an .828 OPS, seven home runs, six steals, 22 RBI, 29 runs scored, nine doubles and a triple over 45 contests as a hitter this season. He has hit safely in six of his last eight games after a five-game slump from April 29 to May 4.

Justin Wrobleski SP | LAD
Dodgers' Justin Wrobleski: Strong bounce-back effort for win
Wrobleski (6-1) allowed two runs on seven hits and a walk while striking out five over six innings to earn the win over the Angels on Saturday.
Wrobleski allowed seven runs over 8.2 innings against Atlanta in his previous start, but he kept the Angels off the board for five innings Saturday before allowing a two-run double to Jorge Soler in the sixth. Wrobleski has been a pleasant surprise early this season with a 2.49 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 27:12 K:BB across 50.2 innings through eight appearances (seven starts). The southpaw's starting role is safe as the Dodgers look set to temporarily transition to a five-man rotation in the absences of Tyler Glasnow (back) and Blake Snell (elbow). Wrobleski is projected to make his next start on the road at Milwaukee.

Willy Adames SS | SF
Giants' Willy Adames: Knocks three hits in win
Adames went 3-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Athletics.
Adames has turned things around lately with six multi-hit efforts over his last nine games. He's gone 15-for-39 (.385) in that span, though just three of those hits have gone for extra bases. The shortstop is batting .235 with a .628 OPS, three home runs, 13 RBI, 15 runs scored, 14 doubles and a stolen base over 45 contests. Adames is a three-time 30-homer man, but he needs to convert some of those two-baggers into over-the-wall power. to get close to that production again.

Casey Schmitt LF | SF
Giants' Casey Schmitt: Homers twice in four-hit game
Schmitt went 4-for-5 with two home runs and three RBI in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Athletics.
Schmitt took Luis Severino deep twice, hitting a solo shot in the first inning and adding a two-run blast in the fifth. After an 0-for-9 run over his previous three games, this was a good bounce-back performance for Schmitt, who is in a tough playing time battle. The Giants' lineup has often come down to Schmitt or Bryce Eldridge at designated hitter, and while Schmitt is a right-handed batter, he has played well enough to avoid settling for platoon work so far. He's now batting .293 with an .878 OPS, eight homers, 21 RBI, 19 runs scored, three stolen bases, eight doubles and a triple over 38 contests. The utility man can also get into the lineup when the Giants' regular infielders need a day off, so there should be plenty of at-bats for him as long as he continues to play well.
