Kevin McGonigle

DET Shortstop #7

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Kevin McGonigle went 3-for-5 with a homer in a loss to the Reds on Saturday.

McGonigle also hit his 11th double of the season. The homer was the second of his young career, and came off Brady Singer to lead off the game. The 21-year-old has been outstanding in his first MLB campaign, and fantasy managers couldn’t have asked for much more than a .333/.424/.539 slash over the first month.

Carlos Cortes

ATH Right Fielder #26

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Carlos Cortes drove in the Athletics’ lone run and swiped a base during Sunday afternoon’s loss to the Orioles.

Cortes hit a sacrifice fly off of Chris Bassitt in the second inning to open the scoring in the ballgame. He then singled in the seventh inning and swiped second base, but was cut down at the plate on a perfect throw from Leody Taveras with what would have been the tying run. He finished the afternoon 1-for-3 and is now hitting a blistering .355/.408/.570 with four homers, 15 RBI and one stolen base in 103 plate appearances on the season.

Luis Severino

ATH Starting Pitcher #40

Luis Severino pitched well in a losing effort against the Orioles on Sunday afternoon, allowing just two runs on six hits over 5 1/3 innings.

Severino struck out four batters on the day, though he also issued four free passes. The Orioles scratched out single runs against him in the third and sixth innings, though Severino was able to limit the damage each time despite a parade of baserunners. He got seven whiffs on 102 pitches on the day, posting a CSW of 26 percent. He’ll carry an uninspiring 4.07 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and a 47/29 K/BB ratio (48 2/3 innings) into a nice matchup against the Giants on Saturday.

Jo Adell

LAA Right Fielder #7

Jo Adell hit two homers in Sunday’s 6-1 Mother’s Day victory over the Blue Jays.

It was part of a three-hit day for Adell, and the two long balls brought him up to six on the season. Amid the slower start, he’s remained in the Angels’ lineup every day. His bat speed remains one of the game’s best while his swing-and-miss profile breeds more volatility than desired.

José Soriano

LAA Starting Pitcher #59

Jose Soriano tossed 7 2/3 innings of one-run ball on Mother’s Day against the Blue Jays, limiting their offense to five hits and one walk while striking out seven.

Soriano’s ERA sits at 1.66 after the dominant performance. The right-hander allowed only one earned run across his first six starts of 2026. He then gave up a combined eight in his last two times out, so Sunday’s outing was a return to his early-season look. He gets a tough matchup at home against the Dodgers next time out.

Eric Lauer

TOR Starting Pitcher #56

Eric Lauer struggled while pitching out of the bullpen on Sunday against the Angels, allowing six runs on five hits over five innings pitched.

Lauer struck out four and walked two in the outing, raising his ERA to 6.69 for the year. The lefty gave up three homers, one to Oswald Peraza and two to Jo Adell. He hasn’t pitched well enough this season to maintain a rotation spot when Toronto’s injured starters begin to get healthy, but he’ll face the Tigers in Detroit next time out.

Oswald Peraza

LAA 2nd Baseman #2

Oswald Peraza went 1-for-4 with a homer and two RBI in the Angels’ 6-1 victory over the Blue Jays on Sunday.

Peraza’s homer was a two-run blast off Eric Lauer to give the team a 2-1 lead in the fifth. It’s been a strong start to the year for the former Yankee, as he entered Sunday with a wRC+ 22% better than league average. He hasn’t been a regular in the lineup lately, however, as Vaughn Grissom, Yoan Moncada, and Adam Frazier factor in for playing time at second and third base.

Jesús Sánchez

TOR Left Fielder #12

Jesús Sánchez went 0-for-3 with a walk and three strikeouts as the Blue Jays fell to the Angels 6-1 on Sunday.

Sánchez remains in a strict corner outfield platoon but continues to hit in the top half of the order against most right-handers. The opportunity hasn’t translated into a skill jump yet, though he’s striking out less than usual. Projected schedules change often, but as of Sunday he’s expected to face five right-handers next week.

Addison Barger

TOR Right Fielder #47
Addison Barger will undergo an MRI on his right elbow after waking up with limited range of motion Sunday and getting scratched from the lineup.

Barger made a terrific 101-mph throw from right to nail Jorge Soler at the plate in Saturday’s game, but it looks like he might pay a price for it. Yohendrick Piñango figures to be recalled to share time with Myles Straw if Barger returns to the IL.

Junior Caminero

TB 3rd Baseman #13

Junior Caminero blasted his 11th home run of the season on Sunday, powering the Rays to a 4-1 victory over the Red Sox in Boston.

The 22-year-old slugger opened the scoring in the top half of the first inning, crushing an 0-2 curveball from Payton Tolle for a 404-foot (105.2 mph EV) solo shot. That would be his only hit in the ballgame. For the season, Caminero is now slashing .252/.339/.497 with 11 long balls and 19 RBI.

Ben Williamson

TB 2nd Baseman #15

Ben Williamson had a solid day at the dish in Sunday’s victory over the Red Sox, going 1-for-2 with two walks, a run scored and an RBI.

Williamson delivered a run-scoring single off of Payton Tolle in the third inning that increased the Rays’ early advantage to 3-0. He then drew a walk to open the sixth inning and came around to score on a sacrifice bunt by Cedric Mullins. The 25-year-old infielder is now hitting .264/.345/.330 with zero homers, 13 RBI and three stolen bases across his first 120 plate appearances with the Rays.
