Polanco hit went back-to-back with Julio Rodriguez in the first inning, and hit another solo bomb in the fourth. That brings his homer total to seven, and three of those have come in the last two games. The 31-year-old has been sensational to open 2025 even while not able to hit from the right side because of his side issues, and to say he’s improved over his disappointing 2024 campaign is quite the understatement.

The 28-year-old slugger did his damage during the first inning of this one, crushing a Max Meyer first-pitch fastball for a 368-foot (101.2 mph EV) solo shot. The Big Dumper now leads the league with his 10 long balls and it’s the first time in his career that he has hit 10 or more homers in a single month. On the season, he’s slashing .229/.333/.560 to go along with the aforementioned 10 dingers, 17 RBI and three stolen bases.

The 31-year-old infielder did his damage in the second inning of this one, smacking a two-out, RBI double off of Max Meyer that increased the Mariners’ early lead to 4-1. He then tacked on a two-out RBI single in the fourth inning that made it a 5-1 ballgame. Polanco was also hit by a pitch in the contest, reaching base safely in three of his four plate appearances. He has been terrific through the first month of the season, slashing .377/.405/.739 with seven homers, 20 RBI and a stolen base.

The Mariners’ lead had been much more comfortable until Connor Norby crushed a three-run homer in the eighth inning to make it a one-run game. Muñoz made it look easy though, getting Xavier Edwards on a called third strike before getting Jesus Sanchez and Agustín Ramírez each to ground out to second base to end it. Muñoz has now converted each of his first 10 save chances on the season and he has yet to allow a run through his first 14 innings on the season.

The Tigers probably would have non-tendered McKinstry over the winter had he not agreed to a deal before the deadline. They’re awfully glad he did now, as he’s come through with a .314/.424/.471 line while getting a whole lot more time than expected in the early going. We’re not at all optimistic that he’ll keep it up, but it’s been a fun time thus far.

Batting in the third spot in the lineup once again, McKinstry came through with three hits for the Tigers Sunday. The 29-year-old utility man tied the game with a two-out RBI single in the fifth inning and put the Tigers in front with an RBI single in the seventh inning. McKinstry is hitting .288 with an .809 OPS and 11 RBI this year. He’ll continue to be a fixture in the Tigers lineup until he cools off at the plate or Matt Vierling and Parker Meadows return from the injured list.
