  • Max Clark CF | DET

    Tigers' Max Clark: Struggling at Triple-A

    Clark is batting .138 (8-for-58) with a double and no home runs in his past 15 games with Triple-A Toledo.

    The 21-year-old had a hot start to the campaign with a 1.010 OPS and 10:6 BB:K in his first 17 Triple-A contests, but his production has cratered since mid-April. Clark remains one of Detroit's top prospects, but he'll likely need to show he can consistently handle Triple-A pitching before he's in serious consideration for a promotion.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Placed on 10-day injured list

    The Yankees placed Dominguez on the 10-day injured list Friday with a left shoulder AC joint sprain.

    Dominguez suffered the injury during Thursday's game against the Rangers when he collided with the outfield wall while making a catch. He managed to avoid a concussion or other major injury, but Dominguez is expected to require longer than a minimum stay on the IL. If Giancarlo Stanton (calf) beats him back from the IL, Dominguez could be sent back to the minors once he's healthy.

  • Spencer Jones CF | NYY

    Yankees' Spencer Jones: Big-league promotion now official

    The Yankees recalled Jones from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday.

    Jones has put together a .258/.366/.592 batting line with 11 home runs, seven stolen bases and a 32.4 percent strikeout rate this season with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. The left-handed batter should get a chance against right-handed pitching while Giancarlo Stanton (calf) and Jasson Dominguez (shoulder) are sidelined.

  • Carlos Cortes LF | ATH

    Athletics' Carlos Cortes: Tallies two hits Thursday

    Cortes went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in Thursday's win over the Phillies.

    Cortes accounted for two of the Athletics' 13 hits in Thursday's blowout road victory, including an RBI single in the third inning. It marked the outfielder's ninth multi-hit effort of the season as he continues to emerge as a major offensive threat with increased playing time. The 28-year-old owns an OPS north of 1.000, slashing .373/.435/.602 with four homers, five doubles, a triple, 14 RBI and 11 runs across 29 games in 2026.

  • Kyle Schwarber DH | PHI

    Phillies' Kyle Schwarber: Belts 12th long ball

    Schwarber went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the Athletics on Thursday.

    Schwarber provided Philadelphia's only run -- and lone extra-base hit -- with a solo blast to right field in the fourth inning. The long ball was the veteran slugger's first in May and at least temporarily halted a cold stretch to begin the month during which he went 3-for-24 with 12 punchouts. Schwarber's 30.7 percent strikeout rate on the campaign is on pace for his worst mark since 2017, and he's batting only .216, but he's continued to be a big power threat with 12 home runs -- tied for fourth most in the majors.

  • Corbin Carroll RF | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Snaps cold stretch with homer

    Carroll went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the Pirates on Thursday.

    Carroll gave the Diamondbacks their first and only lead with a 406-foot solo blast in the third inning. He added a single to notch his first multi-hit game since April 30. Carroll had been enduring a cold May, going just 1-for-19 through his first five games of the month. He'll look to use Thursday's performance as a starting point for a turnaround.

  • Alec Burleson 1B | STL

    Cardinals' Alec Burleson: Swats homer in win

    Burleson went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Padres.

    Burleson has gone 13-for-39 (.333) with three homers and 13 RBI over his last 10 games. The first baseman got the Cardinals on the board when he took Michael King deep in the fourth inning. Burleson's surge has him up to a .270/.350/.461 slash line with six homers, 30 RBI, 19 runs scored, one stolen base and nine doubles across 36 contests in a near-everyday role this season.

  • Willi Castro 2B | COL

    Rockies' Willi Castro: On base three times

    Castro went 1-for-2 with an RBI, two walks and a run scored Thursday against the Mets.

    Castro drove in Colorado's first run of the game with a single in the fourth inning and also scored a run four frames later on a grand slam by Jake McCarthy. Castro is riding a modest four-game hitting streak, going 5-for-15 with two runs in that span. Overall, he has had a mediocre start to his time in Colorado, hitting .250 with 14 runs scored and 12 RBI across 106 plate appearances this season.

  • Red Sox's Masataka Yoshida: Receives uptick in playing time

    Yoshida started at designated hitter and went 0-for-3 with a walk and a run scored in Thursday's 8-4 loss to the Tampa Bay.

    Yoshida is getting more opportunities with Roman Anthony (wrist) landing on the 10-day injured list Thursday. Without Anthony, the lefty-batting Yoshida has started two consecutive games and should continue to get work whenever the Red Sox face a right-hander.

  • Wilyer Abreu RF | BOS

    Red Sox's Wilyer Abreu: Notches third steal

    Abreu went 1-for-3 with a stolen base and one RBI in Thursday's 8-4 loss to the Rays.

    Abreu has gone 7-for-26 (.269) over the first seven games of May, and he's added a 6:9 BB:K and four RBI. The outfielder also has two steals over his last three contests, though he's up to just three thefts on four attempts, as running isn't a large part of his game. The outfielder is batting .300 with an .841 OPS, five home runs, 17 RBI, 19 runs scored, six doubles and one triple across 37 contests and has often been the Red Sox's most reliable hitter early in 2026.
