Alek Thomas

LAD Center Fielder #5

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Dodgers acquired OF Alek Thomas from the Diamondbacks for minor league OF Jose Requena

Thomas was designated for assignment over the weekend, so the Diamondbacks could add top prospect Ryan Waldschmidt to the 40-man roster. Thomas was hitting .181/.222/.340 as Arizona’s center fielder against right-handers. However, he has two years of team control remaining on his contract and was once a top 100 outfield prospect, so it makes sense for the Dodgers to take a gamble. Requena is a 17 year old outfielder who signed with the Dodgers in January for a $372,500 bonus.
Yu Darvish

SD Starting Pitcher #11

Yu Darvish has begun throwing on flat ground as he recovers from offseason elbow surgery.

Darvish had surgery in October to repair his right ulnar collateral ligament with an internal brace and a flexor tendon repair. He posted on his Twitter account that he has started playing catch. Given the timing of his surgery, he is likely out for the entire 2026 season, but it seems as though the 39-year-old has not officially called it a career.
Chandler Simpson

TB Left Fielder #14

Rays manager Kevin Cash said Chandler Simpson left last night’s game with a leg injury that “might just have been a cramp more than anything.”

Cash said that all the strength tests done after the game were good, and Simpson’s health, “from all the reports, sounds really good.” He did acknowledge that Simpson would likely get a day off on Tuesday with a left-hander on the mound, but he doesn’t expect Simpson to miss more time.
Rafael Devers

SF 1st Baseman #16

Rafael Devers went 2-for-3 with a homer, two walks and three runs scored as the Giants took down the Dodgers 9-3 on Monday.

Devers homered on a splitter that Roki Sasaki left up on the zone. It was his third homer in five games, bringing his season total to five in 168 plate appearances. It’s the first time this year that he’s scored three runs. He’s totaled seven runs scored in his last five games after touching home plate just nine times in his first 36 games.
Nathan Eovaldi

TEX Starting Pitcher #17

Rangers manager Skip Schumaker told reporters Nathan Eovaldi is day-to-day with left side discomfort.

It’s a bit unclear when Eovaldi will start next, but there’s optimism he isn’t facing an extended absence, and could potentially avoid a trip to the injured list. It’s an extremely encouraging development after the 36-year-old veteran was scratched from Monday’s scheduled start against the Diamondbacks with left side tightness. There should be a more definitive update from the club on his status in the coming days once he resumes throwing.
Jonathan Aranda

TB 1st Baseman #8

Jonathan Aranda went 2-for-3 with a solo homer and three RBI on Monday, lifting the Rays to an 8-5 win over the Blue Jays.

Aranda has been one of the more impactful middle-of-the-order run producers this season with a whopping 32 RBI through 40 contests. The 27-year-old first baseman delievered a sacrifice fly and a run-scoring single before taking Blue Jays starter Kevin Gausman deep in the fifth inning for his eighth round-tripper of the year. He’s been on fire recently, hitting .346 (18-for-52) with two homers and 11 RBI over his last 15 games.
Andrés Giménez

TOR Shortstop #0

Andrés Giménez launched two homers and tallied five RBI on Monday in a loss to the Rays.

Giménez took Rays starter Drew Rasmussen deep for a three-run homer in the second inning before repeating the feat against reliever Ian Seymour in the seventh to record the first multi-homer performance of his career. The 27-year-old infielder was one of the few bright spots in this one as he was responsible for all five of Toronto’s runs in a losing effort. He’s up to five round-trippers already through 38 games after mustering only seven across 101 contests last year in his Blue Jays debut.
Travis Bazzana

CLE 2nd Baseman #87

Travis Bazzana hit a two-run double on Monday, powering the Guardians to a 7-2 win over the Angels.

Bazzana capped Cleveland’s five-run explosion in the third inning by slicing a two-run double into the left-center field gap. He also drew a pair of walks in this one, reaching base safely in three of his four plate appearances out of the eighth spot in the order. The 23-year-old top prospect has hit a bit of a rough path, which isn’t completely unexpected, while acclimating to everyday life in the majors, hitting .211/.423/.316 with one homer and seven steals in 12 games since being called up back on April 28.
Coby Mayo

BAL 3rd Baseman #16

Coby Mayo delivered a go-ahead three-run homer on Monday, propelling the Orioles to a 3-2 comeback win over the Yankees.

Mayo catapulted Baltimore ahead with a three-run blast off Yankees reliever Brent Headrick after they were completely flummoxed by lefty Ryan Weathers for six-plus frames to open the contest. It was his fourth long ball of the season and first time leaving the yard since April 24. The 24-year-old former top prospect was a late addition to the lineup at DH after Samuel Basallo was scratched with knee discomfort.
Ben Rice

NYY 1st Baseman #22

Ben Rice went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer on Monday in a loss to the Orioles.

Rice put New York on the scoreboard with an opposite-field blast off Orioles starter Brandon Young in the third inning. It was his 13th round-tripper of the season. It was an extremely encouraging sign to see the 27-year-old burgeoning star drive the ball after going 0-for-13 with five strikeouts in three contests against the Brewers following a four-game absence due to a wrist contusion last week.
