  • Matt Gage RP | SF

    Giants' Matt Gage: Earns hold Tuesday

    Gage picked up a hold with a scoreless two-thirds of an inning in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Dodgers, issuing one walk. He did not record a strikeout.

    Gage recorded the first two outs of the seventh inning before allowing a walk and being pulled. He threw seven of his 14 pitches for strikes and earned his third hold of the season. The 33-year-old southpaw now owns a 1.80 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 7:5 K:BB across 10 innings in 11 outings.

  • Quinn Priester SP | MIL

    Brewers' Quinn Priester: Kicking off rehab assignment

    Priester (wrist) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Priester has been on the shelf all season while recovering from symptoms of thoracic outlet syndrome in his right wrist, but he's made enough progress with his throwing program to advance to final stage of the rehab process. According to Sophia Minnaert of Brewers.tv, manager Pat Murphy said that Priester is scheduled to cover three innings or 45-to-50 pitches Wednesday and will require at least two starts in the minors before returning from the 15-day injured list, potentially in early May. As the Milwaukee rotation currently stands now, Brandon Sproat (6.88 ERA, 1.71 WHIP in 17 innings) would likely be most at risk of losing his spot once Priester is activated.

  • Ryan Kreidler SS | MIN

    Twins' Ryan Kreidler: Optioned to Triple-A

    The Twins optioned Kreidler to Triple-A St. Paul on Wednesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

    He's clearing out to make room on the roster for the arrival of Connor Prielipp, who will start Wednesday's game versus the Mets. Kreidler has been productive in his brief time in the majors this season, going 3-for-14 with two home runs and a 4:3 BB:K. He should get another chance later this summer.

  • Twins' Connor Prielipp: Recalled ahead of MLB debut

    The Twins recalled Prielipp from Triple-A St. Paul on Wednesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

    Prielipp will make his major-league debut Wednesday with a start on the road against the Mets. He earned the promotion by collecting a 2.30 ERA and 22:8 K:BB over 15.2 innings in his first three starts with St. Paul. Prielipp has a high pitch count this season of 77, so he's unlikely to pitch deep into Wednesday's contest. However, the left-hander will have a chance to stick around in the rotation as a fill-in for Mick Abel (elbow).

  • Royals' Isaac Collins: Idle Wednesday

    Collins is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

    Collins recently overcame a right knee contusion to start in each of the Royals' last four contests, so he's likely just getting some maintenance Wednesday as Kansas City closes out its series with Baltimore with a day game. Lane Thomas will spell Collins in left field and will bat eighth.

  • Rays' Ben Williamson: Fading into platoon role

    Williamson will start at second base and bat sixth in Wednesday's game against the Reds, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

    Williamson had been on the bench for each of the last four games while the Rays faced right-handed starting pitchers, but he'll slot back into the lineup at the keystone as lefty Brandon Williamson takes the hill for the Reds. The Rays had previously been running more of a timeshare at second base through the first few weeks of the season, but Williamson since appears to have moved into the short side of a platoon at the position with the left-handed-hitting Richie Palacios.

  • Jeff McNeil 2B | ATH

    Athletics' Jeff McNeil: Blasts first homer Tuesday

    McNeil went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Mariners.

    McNeil connected on his first homer of 2026, sending a Luis Castillo changeup over the right-field fence for a solo shot in the fourth inning. The second baseman isn't known for his power and hasn't provided much in that department, but he has been solid to start his first season with the Athletics, slashing .278/.361/.389 with a homer, five doubles, five RBI, seven runs and a stolen base across 23 contests.

  • Rays' Richie Palacios: Idle against lefty

    Palacios is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

    Palacios had started in each of the last five games and went 3-for-13 with a double, two walks and two runs over that stretch, but he'll hit the bench Wednesday while the Reds send southpaw Brandon Williamson to the bump. Palacios appears to have settled into the strong side of a platoon at second base with Ben Williamson, who will occupy the keystone in the series finale.

  • Rays' Cedric Mullins: Idle against lefty

    Mullins is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

    Mullins had started in each of the Rays' last seven games, but the left-handed-hitting outfielder will take a seat for the series finale while the Reds send southpaw Brandon Williamson to the mound. Over 20 plate appearances against lefties this season, Mullins has slashed .176/.263/.176.

  • Kyle Isbel CF | KC

    Royals' Kyle Isbel: Trio of hits Tuesday

    Isbel went 3-for-4 with two doubles and two runs scored in Tuesday's victory over Baltimore.

    Isbel was productive out of the nine hole, recording three hits, including a pair of doubles to lead off the fifth and seventh innings. After opening the season with an eight-game hitting streak and an OPS north of 1.000, the outfielder entered Tuesday's contest just 1-for-27 over his previous 11 games. He will look to build on this performance and get back on track at the plate to complement his well-regarded defense.
