Player Notes

  • Big day on offense
    Mateo went 2-for-2 with a three-run home run, a stolen base and two runs scored in Thursday's win over the Tigers while also drawing two walks.

    Advice: Mateo walked and stole second in his opening at-bat before coming around to score Baltimore's first run of the game on an Adley Rutschman single. The second baseman then broke open a 2-2 game with a three-run shot in the fourth and went on to reach base four times in the contest. The home run was Mateo's third of the season and he's now hit safely in six of his last seven games, going 7-for-22 (.318) over that stretch with four RBI, six runs scored and four stolen bases.

  • Guardians send Angel Martinez on rehab assignment
    Guardians sent SS Angel Martinez (hand) on a rehab assignment to the Arizona Complex League.

    Advice: After starting the season on the injured list with a foot contusion, Martinez later suffered a fractured hamate bone in his hand. The 22-year-old will start this rehab process with the Guardians’ rookie affiliate. Rotoworld Today, 5:40 am

  • Two extra-base hits in win
    Kiner-Falefa went 2-for-4 with a triple and a solo homer in Thursday's win over the Tigers.

    Advice: Kiner-Falefa jumped on the third pitch he saw from Jack Flaherty in the top of the third and launched it over the wall in left field to put the Blue Jays on the board. The outfielder would add a triple in his next at-bat, giving him back-to-back games with two hits after previously riding an 0-for-20 skid. The home run was his third of the season, though two of those have come over his last 11 games. Rotowire.com Today, 4:30 am
  • Grabs first hits, steal of season
    Wisely went 2-for-4 with one RBI and one stolen base in Thursday's 7-6 win over the Pirates.

    Advice: Wisely's playing time has been sparse, but he went 0-for-5 with three strikeouts and one RBI over his first five major-league games of the season. He got the start at shortstop Thursday and delivered with a multi-hit effort, as well as his first steal of the campaign. The utility man hit .175 with a .498 OPS, two home runs and two steals over 131 plate appearances in the majors last year. Wisely can cover the middle infield and all three outfield spots, but it's unlikely he comes anywhere near steady playing time in 2024. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:12 pm
  • Logs three hits, steal in win
    Schuemann went 3-for-5 with a double, two RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Thursday's 10-9 extra-innings win over the Rockies.

    Advice: Facing a four-run deficit in the bottom of the 11th inning, Schuemann sparked the Athletics' rally with an RBI double before scoring on Abraham Toro's single. Through 19 games in May, Schuemann is batting .317 (19-for-60) with five extra-base hits and six RBI. The 26-year-old is up to a .262/.344/.381 slash line with two home runs, three steals, nine RBI and 11 runs scored over 96 plate appearances. Schuemann should continue to start at shortstop, filling in for Darell Hernaiz (ankle), who is on the 60-day injured list and not eligible to return until July. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:13 pm
