Nicky Lopez Has Another Multi-Hit Game
Kansas City Royals rookie second baseman Nicky Lopez seems to be getting his feet under him against major league pitching. On Thursday, Lopez hit safely for the fifth game in his last six, and it was his third multi-hit game in a row. Lopez got off to a slow start to his career, but he's […]

Royals Unlikely To Trade Whit Merrifield This Summer
The Kansas City Royals are unlikely to trade super utilityman Whit Merrifield this summer. “I’m still the same on that,” general manager Dayton Moore told MLB.com on Thursday. “It’s our job to do our due diligence with any proposal and listen. But we’re motivated to keeping our good players here.” KC signed him to a […]
Carlos Correa, Aledmys Diaz Not Expected Back Before Break
Houston Astros manager A.J. Hinch said he doesn't think either shortstop Carlos Correa (rib) or infielder Aledmys Diaz (hamstring) will "factor into the major league team" before the All-Star break. At least the team got second baseman Jose Altuve back from the injured list on Wednesday. Alex Bregman has mainly been holding down the fort […]
Daniel Descalso Starting at Second Base
Chicago Cubs infielder Daniel Descalso will be in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the New York Mets. Descalso has not seen much playing time lately, so it's surprising to see him in the lineup. He'll play second base and bat ninth versus righty Walker Lockett. Descalso has only five hits over the last […]

Michael Chavis Drives In Two Against Minnesota
Boston Red Sox infielder Michael Chavis has now hit safely in nine straight games after finishing 2-for-5 with two runs batted in during Wednesday's win over the Twins.

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte stayed hot on Wednesday against the Colorado Rockies. Marte went 3-for-5 in the loss.

Brock Holt Is Lighting June On Fire
Boston Red Sox utilityman Brock Holt finished just 1-for-2 with two walks, but drove in three runs in Wednesday's win over Minnesota.

Eric Sogard Continues To Quietly Produce From Leadoff Spot
Toronto Blue Jays second baseman Eric Sogard was 2-for-5 with two RBI during an 11-6 loss to the Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday. Sogard has produced a .345 average over his past 15 games, upping his season slash line to .291/.354/.471. The 33-year-old has never been a source of power, although his six home runs […]
