  • Seiya Suzuki RF | CHC

    Cubs' Seiya Suzuki: Productive in win

    Suzuki went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 10-5 win over the White Sox.

    Suzuki snapped an 0-for-15 slump over his last four games with his first multi-hit performance since May 4. The outfielder has still been productive overall with a .272/.382/.491 slash line across 31 games. Suzuki has also put an early-season knee issue behind him, and he should continue to post strong stats as long as he remains healthy.

  • Heliot Ramos RF | NYY

    Giants' Heliot Ramos: Exits with quad tightness

    Ramos was removed from Friday's game against the Athletics due to right quad tightness, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Ramos appeared to be in discomfort after taking a swing in the sixth inning. He finished out the at-bat but was replaced in the outfield once the two teams switched sides. The Giants will likely send Ramos in for imaging to determine the severity of his injury, and if the 26-year-old has to miss any amount of time, Drew Gilbert would be next in line to start in left.

  • J.J. Bleday LF | CIN

    Reds' JJ Bleday: Another multi-hit game

    Bleday went 3-for-5 with two doubles, one RBI and two runs scored during the Reds' 7-6 win over the Guardians on Friday.

    Bleday's RBI fielder's choice in the ninth inning ended up being the game winner in Friday's series opener. He has been hot at the plate recently, having logged multi-hit games in three of his last five games while going 10-for-18 with two home runs, three doubles, 12 RBI and six runs scored over that span. Bleday has a 1.241 OPS with six home runs and 19 RBI across 71 plate appearances this season.

  • Braves' Michael Harris: Extends hit streak to seven games

    Harris went 1-for-4 with a solo homer in Friday's 3-2 extra-inning win against Boston.

    Harris extended Atlanta's lead to 2-0 in the fourth, smacking a solo homer off Connelly Early. It was Harris' first home run since May 1 against the Rockies and seventh of the season. The long ball also extended his hit streak to seven games, and over that span he has gone 10-for-28 (.357) with two RBI and four runs scored.

  • Braves' Mike Yastrzemski: Comes up clutch vs. Boston

    Yastrzemski went 1-for-2 with an RBI double during Atlanta's 3-2 extra-inning win against the Red Sox on Friday.

    Yastrzemski pinch hit for Jose Azocar in the seventh inning and struck out, but Yaz made up for it in the 10th with an RBI double that brought home the winning run. Yastrzemski is slashing .221/.286/.311 with one home run and 11 RBI across 133 plate appearances this season.

  • Jakob Marsee CF | MIA

    Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Productive in Friday's loss

    Marsee went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and a steal during the Marlins' 7-2 loss to the Rays on Friday.

    Marsee entered Friday's game having gone 0-for-8 over his last two outings, but he got himself out of that mini-slump by hitting singles in his first two at-bats before belting his third home run of the season in the sixth. He also collected his 13th steal of the season, which is third most in the National League and tied for fifth in the majors. Over his last seven games, Marsee has gone 6-for-21 with two home runs, four RBI and three steals.

  • Rays' Cedric Mullins: Logs four hits vs. Miami

    Mullins went 4-for-4 with three singles, one steal, a solo home run and two additional runs scored during the Rays' 7-2 win over the Marlins on Friday.

    Mullins utilized the bunt to get on base in both of his first two at-bats before smacking his third home run of the season (and first since April 18) in the sixth inning. He also logged his ninth steal of the season, which puts him eighth in the American League and second on the Rays behind Chandler Simpson (14). Over his last seven games, Mullins has gone 9-for-24 (.375) with three steals, one home run, five RBI and five runs scored.

  • Leody Taveras CF | BAL

    Orioles' Leody Taveras: Idle Friday

    Taveras isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the Nationals.

    Taveras will grab a seat on the bench to begin Friday's contest after going 0-for-8 with three strikeouts during Baltimore's last series against the Yankees. He'll be replaced in center field by Colton Cowser.

  • Roman Anthony LF | BOS

    Red Sox's Roman Anthony: Sheds brace, plays catch

    Anthony (wrist) began playing catch Friday, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

    Friday marks the first time that Anthony has taken off his brace and done any sort of activity since he landed on the injured list last week with a sprained right wrist, and he said afterward that he feels like he's "in a good spot." The Red Sox have yet to provide a return timeline for the young outfielder, though that may come whenever he is cleared to begin a hitting progression.

  • Brewers' Christian Yelich: No decision on IL stint

    The Brewers are giving it "a couple of days" before deciding whether Yelich (back) goes on the 10-day injured list, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    The injury bug has hit Yelich, who returned from a one-month stint on the IL on Tuesday due to a left groin strain, only to be out of action again while working through back soreness. Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported Thursday that the Brewers were going to decide on whether to place Yelich back on the IL, but it looks like the team will take some more time to evaluate its options. Yelich is not in Friday's lineup against the Twins but will try and take some swings before the game and over the weekend. Andrew Vaughn should see most of the playing time as the Brewers' designated hitter for as long as Yelich is sidelined.
