    Reds' Dane Myers: Goes deep against Cleveland

    Myers went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during the Reds' 7-4 loss to the Guardians on Saturday.

    Myers got the Reds on the board in the third inning with a solo blast to right field, his second home run in his last three games and third of the season. He's been in a bit of a drought at the plate in May but has gone 3-for-9 with four RBI and three runs scored over his last three outings.

  • Martin Perez SP | ATL

    Braves' Martin Perez: No longer starting Monday

    Perez will not start against the Marlins on Monday, Chad Bishop of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Perez struck out two batters in one inning of relief during Atlanta's 3-2 loss to the Red Sox on Saturday and will no longer start in Monday's series opener, with Didier Fuentes seemingly the top candidate to take the mound instead, per Mark Bowman of MLB.com. Perez has a 2.25 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 28:11 K:BB across 36 innings this season.

  • Spencer Steer 1B | CIN

    Reds' Spencer Steer: Collects two RBI on Saturday

    Steer went 1-for-4 with a two-run double during the Reds' 7-4 loss to the Guardians on Saturday.

    Steer gave the Reds a 4-2 lead in the fifth after his double to center field brought both Ke'Bryan Hayes and Elly De La Cruz home. Steer has logged at least one RBI in four of his last six games and is in the midst of a seven-game hitting streak. He's gone 7-for-17 (.412) with two walks, four RBI and seven runs scored over his last four contests.

  • Cade Cavalli SP | WAS

    Nationals' Cade Cavalli: Fans eight in quality start

    Cavalli (2-2) earned the win Saturday against the Orioles, allowing three runs on eight hits and no walks in 6.1 innings. He struck out eight.

    Cavalli, who tends to keep the ball in the yard, served up a pair of home runs for the first time this season Saturday but was otherwise effective. The 27-year-old right-hander attacked the zone for 68 strikes on 96 pitches, logging his third quality start of the year while also fanning at least eight for the third time in his past five outings. Cavalli will be trying to further improve on his 4.05 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 52:18 K:BB over 46.2 innings in his next scheduled outing against the division-rival Mets.

  • Austin Gomber SP | TEX

    Braves' Austin Gomber: Inks minor-league deal with Atlanta

    Atlanta signed Gomber to a minor-league contract Saturday and assigned the 32-year-old southpaw to Triple-A Gwinnett, per MLB's transaction log.

    Gomber was granted his release from the Rangers on Saturday and will now get a fresh opportunity with Atlanta. He appeared in nine games for Triple-A Round Rock and posted a 7.75 ERA, 1.66 WHIP and 29:14 K:BB over 33.2 frames.

  • Dodgers' Chayce McDermott: With Dodgers on taxi squad

    McDermott is with the Dodgers on Saturday as a member of the team's taxi squad, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

    McDermott was acquired by the Dodgers from the Orioles in mid-April, and the right-hander sports a 4.32 ERA, 1.60 WHIP and 16:8 K:BB across 8.1 innings with Triple-A Oklahoma City. He may be added to the 26-man roster for Sunday's series finale against the Angels depending on how much the Dodgers utilize the bullpen in Saturday's game.

  • Jose Trevino C | CIN

    Reds' Jose Trevino: Exits game with hamstring injury

    Trevino was removed from Saturday's game against the Guardians due to a left hamstring injury, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Trevino went 0-for-1 before being replaced by Tyler Stephenson in the sixth inning. It's unclear when Trevino sustained the injury, but the Reds should have an update on the veteran catcher's status once he undergoes more tests on his hamstring.

  • Blake Snell SP | LAD

    Dodgers' Blake Snell: Scheduled for surgery Tuesday

    Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that Snell will undergo surgery Tuesday to remove loose bodies in his left elbow, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Roberts relayed that he isn't sure if Snell will have the same type of surgery as Tigers ace Tarik Skubal (elbow), which carries a 4-to-6-week recovery timeline. That would shelve Snell until at least early July, but he would be looking at an even longer absence if the procedure is more intensive. Regardless, the Dodgers are optimistic that the southpaw will be cleared to return before the end of the season.

  • Heliot Ramos RF | NYY

    Giants' Heliot Ramos: Out for at least two weeks

    Giants manager Tony Vitello told reporters Saturday that Ramos will be shelved for at least two weeks due to a right quad strain, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Ramos was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday, and given the updated timeline provided by Vitello, Ramos will likely be out of action until at least early June. Drew Gilbert, Will Brennan and Casey Schmitt will all be in the mix for reps in left field for as long as Ramos is sidelined.

  • Rockies' Antonio Senzatela: Notches third save

    Senzatela gave up a hit and a walk in a scoreless ninth inning Saturday to record his third save of the season in a 4-2 win over the Diamondbacks. He struck out one.

    While it was his third save of the year in three chances, it was the veteran right-hander's first in which he didn't need to pitch more than one inning. Senzatela's stuff is playing up in impressive fashion in short relief -- his four-seam fastball topped out at 98.8 mph Saturday -- and while he'd made 145 career starts for the Rockies over nine MLB seasons coming into 2026, he may have found a new home as a high-leverage arm. With Victor Vodnik having been scored upon in five of his last eight appearances, Senzatela's making a compelling case to take over as Colorado's closer. Through 28.1 innings this season, all in relief, he's produced a 1.27 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 25:8 K:BB.
