Athletics claimed INF Brandon Hicks off waivers from the Braves.

Hicks went 1-for-21 (.048) in 17 games with the Braves last year and batted .252/.333/.446 with 18 homers, 50 RBI and an a .779 OPS over Triple-A Gwinnett. The 26-year-old has mostly played shortstop in his professional career, but he could give the A’s another option at the hot corner after losing Scott Sizemore (knee) for the season.

Who will play shortstop for Mets with Lindor hurt?

April 24, 2026 02:42 PM

James Schiano talks about the "suddenly surging" Mets, analyzing how they will recover from "ironman" Francisco Lindor suffering a calf strain and sharing why New York is "in a bit of a pickle" at the shortstop position.

Logan O'Hoppe

LAA Catcher #14
Logan O’Hoppe left Saturday’s game against the Royals due to left wrist irritation.

He was hit by a foul tip. This sounds like a day-to-day situation, but since the Angels don’t have much flexibility to send down someone and add a third catcher, they’ll probably put O’Hoppe on the IL if they think he’ll be unavailable for more than a day or two. Travis d’Arnaud replaced O’Hoppe, who was 0-for-3 on the night.

Connor Seabold

DET Relief Pitcher #43

Connor Seabold was removed from Saturday’s game in the sixth inning with an apparent ankle injury.

Seabold slipped and fell while throwing a pitch, and Drew Anderson replaced him against the Reds. Seabold retired just one of the four batters he faced tonight, but he wasn’t charged with a run.

Ty France

SD 1st Baseman #25
Ty France hit two solo homers as the Padres topped the Diamondbacks 6-4 in Mexico City on Saturday.

France, now 9-for-34 with three homers on the season, has started two straight games against righties and should be clearly ahead of Miguel Andujar and Nick Castellanos on the Padres’ depth chart for the moment. It’s not really relevant outside of NL-only leagues, but it is extra reason to think the Padres might move on from Castellanos in the not-so-distant future.

Germán Márquez

SD Starting Pitcher #33

Germán Márquez turned in six innings of four-run ball for a win against the D-backs in Mexico City on Saturday.

Giving up four runs over six innings in Mexico City definitely unofficially rates as quality start, much like it did in Márquez’s old home in Colorado. The win makes him 3-1 with a 4.38 ERA and a 17/7 K/BB in 24 1/3 innings. He still doesn’t make much sense in shallow leagues, but he wouldn’t be the worst option next week at home against the White Sox.

Mason Miller

SD Relief Pitcher #22

Although he went without a strikeout again, Mason Miller was perfect in earning his 10th save Saturday against the Diamondbacks.

Milller fanned 25 of 38 batters in his first 11 appearances this year, but he’s 0-for-6 the last three days, not that it’s mattered. Since this was another quick inning, he’ll probably be available to work for the third time in four days on Sunday.

Lourdes Gurriel Jr.

AZ Left Fielder #12

Lourdes Gurriel Jr. went hitless on Saturday and is 1-for-20 since coming off the injured list a week ago.

It’s pretty incredible how quickly Gurriel made it back from his torn ACL to try to help a needy Diamondbacks club, but it sure seems like he should have played in more than two official minor league games before being activated. At this point, the team will just have to wait for him to find his swing.
