  • Dylan Moore 1B | PHI

    Phillies' Dylan Moore: DFA'd by Philadelphia

    The Phillies designated Moore for assignment Saturday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

    The move corresponds with the Phillies activating J.T. Realmuto (back) from the 10-day injured list. Moore signed a major-league deal with the Phillies in March after initially triggering an opt-out clause in the minor-league contract he signed with the team. He served mostly in a reserve role for the Phillies and has yet to record a hit across 15 plate appearances this season. It remains to be seen whether Moore opts to stick around in the minors or explore his options elsewhere in free agency, assuming he does not get claimed off waivers.

  • Braves' Michael Harris: Pops pinch-hit homer Friday

    Harris (quadriceps) slugged a two-run homer in his only plate appearance during Friday's win over the Rockies.

    The 25-year-old began the game on the bench, but Harris pinch hit for Jorge Mateo in the ninth inning and clubbed a Juan Mejia sweeper over the right-field fence to break a 6-6 tie. It was Harris' seventh long ball of the season, and Harris having been used as a pinch hitter the last two games is a good sign he might avoid an IL stint and return to defensive duties fairly soon.

  • Braves' Ronald Acuna: On base three times in win

    Acuna went 2-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Friday's win over the Rockies.

    The star outfielder produced his third multi-hit performance in the last five games as he continues to tease a breakout. Acuna hasn't gone on a prolonged hot streak yet in 2026, slashing .248/.360/.376 with two homers, nine RBI and 16 runs in 33 games, but seven steals in 11 attempts is at least a strong sign his knees are feeling 100 percent healthy.

  • TJ Friedl CF | CIN

    Reds' TJ Friedl: Continues hot stretch

    Friedl went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Friday's 9-1 loss to the Pirates.

    Friedl had two of the Reds' three hits and was the only bright light in the loss. The two-hit night continued a strong stretch for the outfielder, who has gone 12-for-38 (.316) with two home runs, five doubles, one steal, six RBI and five runs over the last 10 contests. Friedl has slowly climbed out of a deep hole -- his batting average stood at .137 after 20 games -- and is at a season-high .198.

  • Jorge Barrosa LF | HOU

    Diamondbacks' Jorge Barrosa: Doubles twice in loss

    Barrosa started in left field and went 2-for-4 with two doubles, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 6-5 loss to the Cubs.

    Barrosa had the most unlikely of doubles in the sixth inning when his attempted sacrifice bunt, which Chicago third baseman Alex Bregman thought was heading into foul territory, stayed fair and rolled into left field. The two-hit night snapped an 0-for-10 run for Barrosa, whose playing time has taken a hit since Lourdes Gurriel was activated off the injured list.

  • Bryan Reynolds LF | PIT

    Pirates' Bryan Reynolds: Swats fourth homer

    Reynolds went 2-for-4 with a walk, a triple, a home run, two runs scored and two RBI in Friday's 9-1 rout over the Reds.

    Both extra-base hits came off Brady Singer, including a solo shot in the first inning that got the Pirates' offense rolling and gave Reynolds his fourth long ball of the season. The veteran outfielder has three multi-hit performances in the last four games, and he's drawn a free pass in seven of the last eight contests -- a stretch in which he's slashing .259/.459/.519 with five RBI and seven runs.

  • Henry Davis C | PIT

    Pirates' Henry Davis: Goes yard twice in rout

    Davis went 2-for-3 with a walk, two home runs, three runs and three RBI in Friday's 9-1 win over the Reds.

    The 26-year-old backstop launched a solo homer off Brady Singer in the fourth inning before belting a two-run shot off Zach Maxwell in the fifth. The long balls were the first of the season for Davis, and his first extra-base hits of any kind since April 7. On the season, he's slashing a meager .176/.273/.309 with one steal, six RBI and 10 runs in 26 games, and Davis will need more than one big performance to get on the fantasy radar in most formats.

  • Mickey Moniak LF | COL

    Rockies' Mickey Moniak: Blasts ninth homer

    Moniak went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and two runs scored Friday against Atlanta.

    Moniak singled and scored in the first inning and then blasted a leadoff homer -- his ninth long ball of the season -- one frame later. He also extended his hitting streak to 15 games, during which he's hit .368 with four homers, nine RBI and 11 runs scored. Moniak has at least one RBI in three straight contests and has been one of the most productive members of the Rockies' lineup to begin the campaign.

  • Jordan Walker RF | STL

    Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Four more hits Friday

    Walker went 4-for-4 with two doubles, two RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base in Friday's win over the Dodgers.

    This was Walker's fourth straight game with a hit and seventh consecutive contest reaching base, as the outfielder continues to enjoy a breakout start to the 2026 campaign. Over that seven-game stretch, Walker has three multi-hit performances while slashing .407/.469/.593 with a homer, nine RBI, five runs scored and two stolen bases. He's been the driving force on offense for the Cardinals all season and is on pace to deliver career-best numbers across all categories.

  • Padres' Fernando Tatis: On base four times in loss

    Tatis went 3-for-3 with a triple, a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 8-2 loss to the White Sox.

    Tatis logged a three-hit effort for just the second time this season. The triple was his first extra-base hit since he had a double in his other three-hit game April 11 versus the Rockies. The lack of power is a concern, but Tatis has racked up three steals over the last four games. For the season, he's batting. 270 with a .665 OPS, no home runs, 13 RBI, 12 runs scored, four doubles and nine steals across 31 games.
