Adolis García is not in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Giants.
It’s García’s first day off this season after making 26 consecutive starts in right field. The 32-year-old is hitting just .209/.270/.407 with four homers, 11 RBI and four steals through 100 plate appearances. It’ll be versatile Josh Smith moving over to right field on Saturday afternoon in his place.

Joc Pederson went 1-for-3 with an RBI in a win over the Giants on Friday.
After breaking an 0-for-41 funk during Wednesday’s game, Pederson was able to reach twice with a single and walk Friday while driving in his first run as a member of the Rangers. There’s no denying that Pederson has been dreadful to begin 2025, but he’s been far too effective of a hitter to believe he can possibly be this bad for much longer. The positive regression is already taking place.

Tyler Soderstrom hit a two-run double in a close win Monday over the Rangers.
With the scored tied 0-0, Soderstrom laced a two-run double off Patrick Corbin to give the A’s the lead and ultimately the victory. The 23-year-old first baseman has been exceptional over the first month of the season with 24 RBI over 29 games and an OPS of .940.

Christian Walker hit a two-run homer in a win over the Tigers on Monday.
It was the only hit of the game for Walker, but if you’re only going to get one hit, you might as well make it a homer. Walker has gone deep four times in his first year with the Astros, but is still slashing an ugly .192/.273/.354 over the first 27 games of the campaign. Those numbers will improve, but there’s no denying the first sixth of the season has been a disappointing one for the veteran first baseman.
Nick Kurtz

Nick Kurtz is not in the lineup for Monday’s contest against the Rangers.
Kurtz takes a seat with lefty Patrick Corbin on the mound for Monday’s series opener at Globe Life Field. The 22-year-old top prospect is hitting .250 (4-for-16) with three RBI through five games since being promoted last week to the big leagues. Some initial turbulence isn’t unexpected as Kurtz acclimates to life in the majors less than a calendar year after being selected fourth overall in the draft. It’ll be Tyler Soderstrom at the cold corner on Monday night in his place.
