Baltimore Orioles shortstop
Gunnar Henderson had himself a nice day at the plate during Saturday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. He kicked off the scoring for the O's with a home run in the first inning. He would continue his hot streak with an RBI double in the second. Henderson finished with a solid game going 2-for-3 with a homer, double, and two walks in the win. It has been a slow start for the 23-year-old, but maybe this performance will help spark his bat. Despite the sluggish start, Henderson remains a must-have in all fantasy formats.

Baltimore Orioles shortstop
Gunnar Henderson was productive in a 6-2 win over the Cleveland Guardians on Thursday. Henderson went 2-for-4 with a double, a solo homer, and two runs in the win. The veteran shortstop kicked off the scoring in the ballgame with a solo homer off Cleveland starter
Tanner Bibee in the first innning. After missing the first week or so of the regular season with a right intercostal strain, Henderson is hitting .239 with one homer, seven runs, one RBI, and two steals across 46 at-bats. He is off to a slow start in the power department but hit 65 combined homers over his previous two seasons, so fantasy managers need to stay patient with him in the early going.

Baltimore Orioles shortstop
Gunnar Henderson went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, two runs, and two steals in a 5-1 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday. Henderson was just activated from the injured list on Friday after missing the beginning of the season with a right intercostal strain. He appears to be fully healthy now as he picked up his first two steals of the season in the win on Monday. Henderson is coming off a career year that saw him emerge as a power/speed threat with 37 homers and 21 stolen bases in 2024. He should be locked into fantasy lineups moving forward.

Baltimore Orioles shortstop
Gunnar Henderson (side) was activated off the 10-day injured list on Friday. The Orioles optioned outfielder
Dylan Carlson to Triple-A Norfolk in a corresponding move. Henderson has been sidelined since February due to a right intercostal strain. However, the 23-year-old did not miss much time and will already return to the MLB roster. Henderson posted a .263 AVG with two home runs across a five-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Norfolk during the week. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on the Orioles' starting nine, but given that he was activated off the injured list, he will likely make his regular-season debut this evening. Last season, Henderson enjoyed an excellent campaign as he posted a .281/.364/.529 slash line with 37 home runs and 21 stolen bases. He generated an elite .374 xwOBA. If he returns on Friday, he will face Kansas City right-hander
Seth Lugo.
