    Guardians' Chase DeLauter: Collects two RBI vs. Minnesota

    DeLauter went 2-for-5 with two RBI during the Guardians' 5-4 loss to the Twins on Sunday.

    DeLauter was responsible for each of the Guardians' last two runs of Sunday's loss with an RBI single in the sixth inning and a groundout in the eighth that brought David Fry home. It was the ninth multi-RBI game of the season for DeLauter, four of which have come over his last nine contests. Over his last 15 games, he has gone 23-for-57 (.404) with one home run, 10 RBI and a 6:5 BB:K.

  • Jo Adell RF | CLE

    Angels' Jo Adell: Goes deep twice Sunday

    Adell went 3-for-4 with a double and two solo home runs during the Angels' 6-1 win over the Blue Jays on Sunday.

    Adell logged a career-high 37 home runs during the 2025 season but was sitting at just four long balls heading into Sunday's contest. He cracked solo home runs off Eric Lauer in both the sixth and ninth frames, marking Adell's first multi-homer game since Aug. 19. Although he's taken a slight step back in the power department, Adell has a .314 OBP in 172 plate appearances, which is slightly higher than last season (.293 across 573 plate appearances).

  • Carlos Cortes LF | ATH

    Athletics' Carlos Cortes: Nabs first steal in loss

    Cortes went 1-for-3 with one RBI and a stolen base in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Orioles.

    Cortes drove in the Athletics' lone run on a sacrifice fly in the second inning before swiping his first career bag in the seventh. The 28-year-old has cooled off a bit, going just 6-for-24 to open the month of May, but he's still slashing an outstanding .355/.408/.570 with four homers, 15 RBI and 11 runs scored across 103 plate appearances this season. He continues to sit against most southpaws despite going 5-for-8 against them in the early going.

  • Tigers' Kerry Carpenter: Out with AC joint sprain

    The Tigers placed Carpenter on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder.

    The 29-year-old sustained the injury Saturday against the Royals on a collision with the outfield wall, and he'll be out for at least the next week and a half as a result. Gage Workman was called up from Triple-A Toledo to take Carpenter's place on Detroit's 26-man active roster.

  • Tigers' Kerry Carpenter: Out Sunday, could be IL bound

    Carpenter (shoulder) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.

    Carpenter exited Saturday's 5-1 loss due to a left shoulder injury, which he sustained while attempting to flag down a Bobby Witt flyball that ultimately fell in for an inside-the-park home run. The Tigers are still evaluating Carpenter before deciding whether he'll require a stint on the 10-day injured list, but the team already has a contingency plan in place if the 28-year-old needs to be shut down. Per Chris McCosky of The Detroit News, the Tigers have added Triple-A Toledo utility man Gage Workman to their taxi squad and will formally activate him ahead of Tuesday's game against the Mets if Carpenter needs to go on the IL.

  • Matt Wallner RF | MIN

    Twins' Matt Wallner: Giving way to Martin on Sunday

    Wallner is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

    After striking out four times in Saturday's 2-1 win, Wallner will hit the bench for the series finale. He'd started the previous four games but still looks to be stuck in a timeshare in right field with Austin Martin, who will occupy the position Sunday. The 28-year-old Wallner has gotten off to a wretched start to 2026, slashing just .172/.267/.302 while striking out at a 37.4 percent clip over 131 plate appearances.

  • Rays' Richie Palacios: Hitting bench against lefty

    Palacios is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

    The left-handed hitter will be left out of the starting nine once again while the Rays face off against a fourth consecutive left-handed starting pitcher in Payton Tolle. Palacios' platoon mate Ben Williamson will handle second base and bat third.

  • Jake Fraley RF | TB

    Rays' Jake Fraley: Idle against lefty again

    Fraley is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

    The left-handed hitter will be left out of the starting nine once again while the Rays face off against a fourth consecutive left-handed starting pitcher in Payton Tolle. Fraley's platoon partner, Jonny DeLuca, will cover right field for the Rays.

  • White Sox's Andrew Benintendi: Sitting again Sunday

    Benintendi (neck) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.

    The veteran outfielder was scratched from the lineup Saturday due to neck stiffness and is on the bench Sunday for a second straight game. Randal Grichuk is receiving another start at designated hitter in the series finale versus Seattle.

  • Blue Jays' George Springer: Receiving Sunday off

    Springer is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

    It's likely just a maintenance day for Springer, who has gone 3-for-16 with a double and a walk over the past four games after missing two contests due to a hit-by-pitch on his already sore foot. Vladimir Guerrero is resting his legs as the designated hitter Sunday while Lenyn Sosa picks up a start at first base.
