Hunter Renfroe

KC Right Fielder #16

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Royals activated OF Hunter Renfroe from the 10-day injured list.

Renfroe began his rehab assignment on Wednesday and that was apparently all the Royals needed to see. The veteran was hitting .263/.345/.424 in 27 games since the All-Star break with four home runs and 17 RBI before heading to the injured list. With Vinnie Pasquantino out, the Royals will hope Renfroe can bring a little bit of pop back to their struggling lineup.

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.

Jack Flaherty

DET Starting Pitcher #9

Jack Flaherty was charged for six runs over two innings in a loss to the Reds on Saturday.

Flaherty struck out four while allowing five hits and issuing two walks. That’d be a decent afternoon if he went more than two innings. He did not, and three of those hits went over the fence in another disappointing start for the 30-year-old. He threw more strikes than his six-walk disaster against the Red Sox on Monday, and that’s about the only positive you can take from the contest. Flaherty will try and bounce back against the Rangers on Friday in Detroit.

Josh Jung

TEX 3rd Baseman #6

Josh Jung hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the bottom of the sixth before the Rangers held on to edge the A’s 4-3 on Saturday.

Despite going 0-for-17 in March, Jung is currently hitting .299 on the season. He’s at .371/.430/.671 with four homers in April alone. Statcast thinks the slugging percentage is mostly a mirage, but it is really encouraging that he’s striking out just 17.5 percent of the time this year. His career rate coming into the season was 27.9 percent.

MacKenzie Gore

TEX Starting Pitcher #1

MacKenzie Gore yielded three runs in five innings Saturday in a no-decision against the A’s.

Gore struck out seven, but this was a mediocre, inefficient outing in which he needed 106 pitches to get his 15 outs. Still, at least now that he’s working in front of a quality defense and throwing to a solid catcher, his weaker outings look more like this instead of the three-inning, six-run affairs during his Nationals career. Gore will make his next start in Detroit.

Jacob Latz

TEX Relief Pitcher #67
Jacob Latz notched his first save Saturday with a flawless ninth against the A’s.

Latz has seemed like a candidate for saves in the Texas bullpen for weeks now, but this is his first save of the year. He joins Jakob Junis (three), Tyler Alexander (two) and Cole Winn (one) in having earned saves for the Rangers. Junis set him up with a scoreless eighth tonight, while Winn wound up with the win for pitching a scoreless sixth. It’s difficult to recommend any one Texas reliever right now, but Latz is probably the best bet of the bunch from an ERA standpoint.

Jeffrey Springs

ATH Starting Pitcher #59

Jeffrey Springs surrendered four runs in six innings Saturday in a loss to the Rangers.

Things could have gone better for Springs, who allowed just three hard-hit balls on the night. The big blow was Josh Jung’s two-run to right-center, and that would have left only 11 of the 30 ballparks. Besides that, Springs gave up four singles and two walks. He dropped to 3-2 with a 3.79 ERA ahead of a start against Cleveland next week.
