  • Willy Adames SS | SF

    Giants' Willy Adames: Nursing bruised thumb

    Adames has been diagnosed with a bruised right thumb, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

    It's not clear whether Adames will be in the starting lineup for Tuesday's matchup. The Giants figure to re-evaluate the injury in the morning to determine whether he can take the field for the second game of the series in Arizona.

  • Weston Wilson 3B | SEA

    Orioles' Weston Wilson: Pops first homer Monday

    Wilson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 16-6 loss to the Rays.

    Wilson, who remains mostly stuck in short-side platoon role, belted his first homer of the season Monday. The utility player doesn't have a clear pathway to action at any position, especially now that Jackson Holliday (hand) is back with the Orioles. Wilson has at least been effective when called upon, batting .290 with two extra-base hits, three RBI, six walks and two stolen bases over 31 at-bats.

  • Jose Quintana SP | COL

    Rockies' Jose Quintana: Nabs second victory

    Quintana (2-2) earned the win over Texas on Monday, completing 5.2 innings and allowing three runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out four batters.

    Quintana got plenty of early run support and entered the fifth inning with a 6-1 lead. He faded a bit near the end of his outing, giving up a run in each of the fifth and sixth frames, but still managed to emerge with the victory. Quintana's four-game streak of allowing two or fewer earned runs came to an end, but he had picked up just one win during that stretch. The veteran lefty has been an unspectacular but useful addition to Colorado's rotation this season, posting a 4.08 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 20:17 K:BB over 39.2 innings spanning eight starts.

  • Victor Mederos RP | ATL

    Braves' Victor Mederos: Promotion forthcoming

    Mederos is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett ahead of Tuesday's game against the Marlins, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.

    This promotion isn't official just yet, and Atlanta would need to make a corresponding move to make room on the active roster for Mederos. The 24-year-old, who was traded to Atlanta from the Angels in April in exchange for international bonus pool money, has worked to a 4.81 ERA and 1.48 WHIP with 21 strikeouts across 24.1 innings this season at Triple-A.

  • Joe Mack C | MIA

    Marlins' Joe Mack: Racks up season-high four RBI

    Mack went 1-for-3 with four RBI, a walk and an additional run scored in Monday's 12-0 win over Atlanta.

    Despite coming away with no extra-base hits, the rookie backstop was still able to pile up a season-high four RBI on Monday. With Agustin Ramirez getting some seasoning in the minor leagues and Liam Hicks settling in as Miami's top first baseman, Mack is serving as the club's primary catcher but remains mostly off the fantasy radar. Over 40 at-bats, he's hitting .225 with three doubles, six RBI and six runs scored.

  • JR Ritchie SP | ATL

    Braves' JR Ritchie: Crumbles in fourth inning

    Ritchie (1-1) took the loss Monday against Miami, allowing six runs on six hits and one walk in four innings. He struck out four.

    The rookie right-hander turned in his worst major-league start so far, surrendering a season-high six runs in a season-low four innings. Ritchie also plunked a pair of batters on the evening, with most of the damage being done during a disastrous fourth inning that saw the Marlins tag him for five runs. He's set to bring an underwhelming 4.91 ERA, 1.48 WHIP and 21:16 K:BB over 25.2 frames into a difficult matchup against the division-rival Nationals this weekend.

  • Brewers' Christian Yelich: Goes deep again Monday

    Yelich went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double, a walk, two total runs and two total RBI in a 9-3 win against the Cubs on Monday.

    Yelich kicked off the scoring in the contest with a solo shot in the second inning and added an RBI double in the sixth. The veteran slugger recently missed four games due to back soreness, but he doesn't seem to have missed a beat, as he's homered in consecutive contests since his return. Yelich had gone deep just once in his first 16 games this season prior to the two-game power surge.

  • Mariners' Marcelo Perez: Recovers from forearm strain

    Perez (forearm) was activated from the 7-day injured list Wednesday.

    Perez got off to a slow start to 2026 after being diagnosed with a forearm strain. He's since completed a rehab assignment and returned to Double-A Arkansas, where he's allowed three runs (one earned) on one hit and one walk while striking out three over two innings (two appearances).

  • Max Meyer SP | MIA

    Marlins' Max Meyer: Blanks Atlanta in fourth win

    Meyer (4-0) notched the win Monday against Atlanta, allowing no runs on three hits and two walks in six innings. He struck out six.

    Meyer twirled a gem Monday, scattering singles across six shutout frames against a tough Atlanta lineup. The 27-year-old right-hander is putting together a breakout start to his campaign, tossing at least five innings while yielding two runs or fewer in six of his last eight outings. Still unbeaten on the year, Meyer is set to carry a strong 2.85 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 60:19 K:BB over 53.2 innings into a matchup with the surging Mets over the weekend.

  • Ernie Clement 2B | TOR

    Blue Jays' Ernie Clement: Hits three-run homer in loss

    Clement went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run, four RBI, one walk and two runs scored in Monday's 7-6 loss to the Yankees.

    Following back-to-back singles from Vladimir Guerrero and Kazuma Okamoto to lead off the top of the fourth inning, Clement took Ryan Weathers deep for a two-out, three-run shot to give the Blue Jays a 3-1 lead. He later drove in a fourth run with a fielder's choice groundout. After failing to homer in the first 29 games of the season, Clement has three homers over his last 17 contests. He's now slashing .283/.309/.406 with the three long balls, 16 RBI, 18 runs scored, one stolen base and a 7:15 BB:K across 188 plate appearances this season.
