Bryce Harper Hits Three Homers Tuesday, Plates Six

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper broke out of his slump in a big way in Tuesday's 9-4 win over the Reds. Harper went 3-for-4 with two solo home runs and a grand slam. The 31-year-old had gone hitless in his first 13 plate appearances but got in the hit column in a very loud […]

Michael Busch Takes A Seat Versus Southpaw

Chicago Cubs infielder Michael Busch is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Colorado Rockies. This marks the first time this season that Busch will take a seat. This makes sense to give Busch some rest against a left-handed starting pitcher. In his place, Garrett Cooper will cover first base and […]

Joey Loperfido Slugs Three Homers In Opening Series

Houston Astros prospect Joey Loperfido ranks third among the club's outfield prospects but boasts the potential to be an everyday standout in the majors. He runs well, has a strong blend of contact and power, and boasts positional versatility with his ability to play the outfield, first base, or second base. These strengths certainly make […]

Josh Naylor Gets First Homer Of The Season

Cleveland Guardians first baseman Josh Naylor hit his first home run of the season on Monday in a 5-4 loss to the Seattle Mariners. Naylor hit the homer in the eighth inning off Andres Munoz to put Cleveland down 5-4, which ended up being the final score. Naylor finished the game going 1-for-4 and is […]

He'll fill the roster spot of third baseman Josh Jung, who suffered a broken right […]

Spencer Steer Hits Go-Ahead Grand Slam

Cincinnati Reds utilityman Spencer Steer continued his hot streak in Monday's 6-3 extra-innings win over the Phillies, going 2-for-5 with a double, a 10th-inning, go-ahead grand slam, and a strikeout. The 26-year-old has started 2024 where he left off in 2023, slashing .400/.471/.733 with seven RBI and a stolen base in his first 17 plate […]

Wilmer Flores In Monday's Lineup

San Francisco Giants first baseman Wilmer Flores (shoulder) is starting at first base and is batting fifth on Monday against the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers and left-hander James Paxton. Flores was initially held out of the lineup after injuring his shoulder in the series finale against the San Diego Padres on Sunday, but the team's […]

Coby Mayo Off To Hot Start

Baltimore Orioles third base prospect Coby Mayo has been off to a hot start for Triple-A Norfolk. The 6'5" slugger hit his first homer on Sunday and is 5-for-14 with three RBI in his first week of play. Mayo, 22, is one of the many big-name prospects for the Orioles and like his fellow Triple-A […]

Jose Abreu Re-Enters Starting Lineup Monday

Houston Astros first baseman Jose Abreu (hand) is back in the starting lineup on Monday to take on right-hander Bowden Francis and the Toronto Blue Jays. The veteran missed Sunday's series finale against the New York Yankees with hand soreness after being plunked on the hand by a pitch on Saturday. It was a rough […]

Eddie Rosario, Joey Gallo Out Versus Lefty

Washington Nationals outfielders Eddie Rosario and Joey Gallo and second baseman Luis Garcia are all on the bench on Monday with the team facing a left-hander in Pittsburgh Pirates southpaw Marco Gonzales. Victor Robles is getting the start in center field and is batting ninth, Joey Meneses is starting at first base and batting third, […]

Christian Encarnacion-Strand Walks Off The Nationals

Cincinnati Reds first baseman Christian Encarnacion-Strand hit a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to walk off the visiting Washington Nationals on Sunday. Encarnacion-Strand finished the series finale by going 1-for-5 with the solo home run and two strikeouts in the 6-5 win. Outfielder Will Benson tied the game with a […]

Kris Bryant In Cleanup Spot Monday

Colorado Rockies outfielder Kris Bryant is playing first base and batting cleanup in the first game of the series versus the Chicago Cubs and left-hander Shota Imanaga on Monday. Bryant hit in the two-hole for the Rockies in the first three games of the season before getting Sunday's series finale against the Arizona Diamondbacks off. […]

Vinnie Pasquantino Off To Slow Start In 2024

After missing most of the 2023 season due to a shoulder injury, Kansas City Royals first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino has gotten off to a slow start in 2024. He has only one hit in 11 at-bats (1-for-11) and is slashing .091/.231/.091 over three games. Pasquantino will look to rebound this week against an awful White […]

Wilmer Flores Removed From Sunday's Game

San Francisco Giants infielder Wilmer Flores (shoulder) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the San Diego Padres. Flores suffered a left shoulder contusion when he fell into the dugout while trying to make a catch in foul territory. The injury doesn't sound serious and this shouldn't force Flores onto the injured list. […]

Jose Abreu Out With Hand Soreness On Sunday

Houston Astros first baseman Jose Abreu (hand) is out of the starting lineup on Sunday against the visiting New York Yankees after he was hit by a pitch on his hand on Saturday, according to manager Joe Espada. The skipper said that Abreu should be available off the bench on Sunday in the series finale. […]

Bryce Harper Not In Sunday's Lineup

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper is not in Sunday's starting lineup against the Atlanta Braves and left-hander Chris Sale. In Harper's place, Alec Bohm will move across the diamond to first base and bat third, while Edmundo Sosa draws the start at the hot corner and will hit seventh for the Phillies. There hasn't […]
