    • Swipes two bags Friday
      Perkins went 2-for-3 with a walk, two runs scored and two stolen bases in Friday's 7-2 win over the Red Sox.

      Advice: Getting the start in center field and batting ninth, Perkins swiped his first bags in May and reached base three times, extending a hot streak that has seen him go 7-for-15 over the last six games with three walks. The 27-year-old has shot past Sal Frelick on the depth chart in center, but manager Pat Murphy will likely continue riding the hot hand among his outfielders, giving Perkins little job security without a longer run of success at the plate.

    • Moves up order
      Smith batted third and went 1-for-3 in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Twins.

      Advice: Smith, who made a 10th consecutive start, batted out of the three-hole for a second straight game. Earlier in the week, he batted cleanup. He's been an under-the-radar producer for the Rangers, ranking second among the team's regulars with a .782 OPS, and has been rewarded with a promotion in the order against right-handers.

    • Productive from bottom of order
      Hampson went 2-for-3 with a walk, an RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 8-1 win over the Rays.

      Advice: Getting the start in center field and batting ninth with lefty Tyler Alexander lined up to be the primary pitcher for Tampa Bay, Hampson kept the line moving as he reached base three times, the second time he's accomplished that in his last six starts. Of late, the 29-year-old has mainly been used as a platoon partner for Kyle Isbel, and Hampson's been effective in that role -- on the season he's slashing .306/.359/.389 in 40 plate appearances against southpaws.

    • Begins rehab as DH
      Langford (hamstring) served as the designated hitter and went 1-for-4 with a walk and a run scored for Triple-A Round Rock on Friday.

      Advice: Langford kicked off a rehab assignment as the DH for the Express and batted leadoff to ensure the maximum amount of plate appearances. The Rangers will probably want to see him play the field before activating him. Round Rock continues its series with games Saturday and Sunday, which could be enough to have Langford ready for Tuesday's series-opener against the Diamondbacks. Rotowire.com 43 minutes ago
       
    • Homers in win
      Fairchild went 1-for-3 with two walks, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Friday's 9-6 win over the Dodgers.

      Advice: Fairchild, who bopped one of three Cincinnati home runs, led off the fifth inning with his fourth long ball of the season. The outfielder is usually in the lineup against lefties, against whom he has a .949 OPS. Overall, he has an unappealing line of .226/.308/.387. Rotowire.com Today, 4:50 am
       
    • Light jogging begins
      Thomas (hamstring) has begun light jogging, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Thomas has taken a series of small steps since receiving a platelet-rich plasma injection May 13. He ran in a pool and took live at-bats before commencing a jogging regimen. The Diamondbacks have not set an estimated return date for Thomas, who will first need a rehab assignment before rejoining the club. Rotowire.com Today, 4:32 am

    • Swipes second bag
      Benintendi went 0-for-4 with a stolen base Friday against the Orioles.

      Advice: Benintendi has hit just .145 across 19 games in May and is hitless in five of his last seven starts. He did manage to swipe his second bag of the season, though that's hardly a consolation given his .183/.213/.263 line across 183 plate appearances for the season.

    • Jon Berti likely IL bound with calf injury
      Jon Berti suffered a calf injury during Friday’s game and likely will go on the injured list.

      Advice: The Yankees could bring DJ LeMahieu back from his rehab early with Berti out, but that’s not the current play. Perhaps Oswald Peraza will get the call. Oswaldo Cabrera will play third base until LeMahieu is activated early next week. Rotoworld Yesterday, 11:27 pm

    • Scores three runs
      Joe went 2-for-4 with two doubles and three runs scored Friday against Atlanta.

      Advice: Joe doubled in the first and third innings and came around to score on each occasion. The performance marked his first multi-hit game in his last six starts and his first extra-base knock in eight contests. With Jack Suwinski optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday, Joe's status as a regular in the lineup should be cemented. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:26 pm
