  • Patrick Corbin SP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Patrick Corbin: Shines during no-decision

    Corbin did not factor into the decision Thursday against the Brewers, allowing one run on four hits and one walk while striking out six over 5.2 innings.

    Corbin turned in a strong bounce-back outing, after allowing four runs in four innings in his season debut. The lone run came in the fourth on a sacrifice fly following back-to-back hits, but the left-hander settled in from there and held Milwaukee hitless the rest of the way. With Trey Yesavage nearing a return to the rotation, Corbin's performance came at an important time, strengthening his case to remain in Toronto's starting mix moving forward.

  • Kyle Teel C | CHW

    White Sox's Kyle Teel: Rehab assignment coming Monday

    Teel (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Monday, MLB.com reports.

    It was previously reported that Teel was nearing a rehab assignment, but there is now a clearer timeline. He's expected to return in early May, suggesting he'll appear in several games before being activated. The last remaining part of Teel's recovery is running at full speed.

  • Royals' Vinnie Pasquantino: Slaps first home run

    Pasquantino went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Thursday's 10-9 loss against the Tigers.

    Pasquantino was held hitless through his first four at-bats before breaking through in the ninth with a 412-foot solo shot off Connor Seabold to extend the lead. The homer was his first of the season and provided a small bright spot amid a difficult start to the year. The 28-year-old is now slashing just .155/.244/.239 with nine RBI and five runs scored across 82 plate appearances and will look to build on this swing moving forward.

  • White Sox's Everson Pereira: Goes deep again

    Pereira went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Thursday against the Rays.

    Pereira started in right field for the second time in three games since returning from the injured list. He managed his second home run in that span with a solo shot in the eighth inning, his third of the campaign. Pereira has performed well in a small sample to begin the 2026 season, though he's struck out at a 36.0 percent clip across 25 plate appearances.

  • Miguel Vargas 2B | CHW

    White Sox's Miguel Vargas: Ends homer drought

    Vargas went 1-for-5 with a solo home run Thursday against the Rays.

    After a strong start to the season, Vargas entered Thursday's game having collected only two hits across his last 33 at-bats. However, he showed some signs of turning things around with a solo blast in the third inning, his second of the season and first since March 30. Though Vargas is hitting only .159 across 76 plate appearances to begn the campaign, he's striking out at only an 18.4 percent clip while suffering from a BABIP of .167.

  • Royals' Salvador Perez: Goes deep vs. Tigers

    Perez went 2-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Thursday's 10-9 loss to the Tigers.

    Perez delivered in a big way, blasting a three-run homer in the seventh inning off Tyler Holton to extend Kansas City's lead. The blast was his third of the season and highlighted a much-needed offensive breakout. Entering Thursday, Perez was slashing .149/.208/.269 with 2 homers 2 rbi and 4:13 BB:K across 72 plate appearances, making this performance an encouraging sign for the 35-year-old catcher.

  • Keider Montero SP | DET

    Tigers' Keider Montero: Fades late in no-decision

    Montero did not factor into the decision Thursday against the Royals, allowing four runs on seven hits while striking out five over six innings.

    Montero looked solid early, building off his previous start where he tossed six scoreless innings with seven strikeouts, but ran into trouble late. Kansas City had managed just two runs through six innings before he ran out of gas, allowing back-to-back hits, including an RBI single to Jac Caglianone, that ended his outing. Despite Thursday's line, Montero's underlying metrics remain excellent, as he ranks near the top of the league in xERA (1.20) and xwOBA (.173). He's slated to face Milwaukee in his next start Tuesday.

  • Kris Bubic SP | KC

    Royals' Kris Bubic: Tagged for five runs vs. Detroit

    Bubic allowed five runs on six hits and three walks while striking out three over 4.2 innings Thursday against the Tigers. He did not factor into the decision.

    Bubic ran into trouble due to his own command issues, as he issued 3 walks and tossed two wild pitches that directly led to runs in the second and fourth innings. Aside from those mistakes, the left-hander showed effectiveness with his changeup, generating 10 swings and six whiffs, but couldn't limit damage in key moments and was forced out before completing five innings for the first time this season. Bubic now owns a 3.97 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 26:10 K:BB across 22.2 innings and will look to bounce back in his next start, slated against Baltimore on Tuesday

  • Jo Adell RF | LAA

    Angels' Jo Adell: Launches grand slam in rout

    Adell went 2-for-4 with a grand slam, a walk and three runs scored in Thursday's 11-4 win against the Yankees.

    Adell delivered the knockout blow Thursday, crushing a grand slam off Ryan Yarbrough to put the game out of reach in the eighth inning. The long ball was his third of the season and second in his last three games, showing a small glimpse of what we previously saw when he launched 37 home runs in 2025. Adell has been one of the hottest hitters in baseball during April, batting 19-for-58 (.328) with 11 RBI.

  • Mike Trout CF | LAA

    Angels' Mike Trout: Fourth straight day with homer

    Trout went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, three walks and three runs scored in Thursday's 11-4 win against the Yankees.

    Trout continued to dominate New York pitching, launching his seventh homer of the season -- and fifth of the four-game series -- while also drawing three walks, including an intentional pass that showed the Yankees' respect for his power. After a brief slowdown to begin April, Trout has caught fire again, going 9-for-23 with 12 RBI, 11 runs scored and six walks over his last six games. Following three injury-plagued and underwhelming seasons, the 34-year-old is showing strong signs of returning to his elite form, with early production suggesting a potential return to 30-plus home run territory.
