Mark Vientos
NYM • 3B • #
Mark Vientos went 2-for-4 with a triple and three RBI on Friday against the Nationals.
Vientos was briefly the hero for the Mets in this one after hitting a shallow fly ball with the bases loaded and two out in the eighth inning that Dylan Crews dove for, missed, cleared the bases, and briefly put the Mets ahead. It was nice to see Vientos catch a break after a terrible first few weeks of the season and after the Mets fell victim to a faulty triple play earlier in this game on a missed call. Vientos also smoked a 106.0 mph single and 100.9 mph lineup earlier in this game, so hopefully he’s finally set to go on a hot streak.

A.J. Minter was removed from Saturday’s game against the Nationals with left triceps tightness.
Minter was clearly bothered walking off the mound after nine pitches in the eighth inning, and now we know why. The left-hander will assuredly need to undergo more testing to determine the severity of the injury and see if there’s any possible structural damage. This would be a significant loss to the Mets’ bullpen if Minter was to miss time.

Francisco Alvarez went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer to lead the Mets to a 2-0 win over the Nationals on Saturday.
Playing his second game of the season after missing time with a hamate bone fracture, Alvarez delivered a two-run blast off Brad Lord in the second inning to drive in the only two runs of the game. The 23-year-old backstop’s return provides a spark for a team that’s already off to a great start at 19-8. His power potential warrants interest in most one-catcher formats at least 12 teams and deeper.

Edwin Díaz struck out three batters in a scoreless ninth inning to record the save against the Nationals on Saturday.
Díaz bounced back nicely after leaving Wednesday’s game with a hip cramp. He took over in the ninth with a two-run lead and worked around a walk, striking out the side for his seventh save of the season. The 31-year-old right-hander has struck out multiple batters in each of his last six outings.

Bud Black told reporters that Ryan McMahon won’t start Sunday against the Reds.
McMahon will be out of the lineup for the first time in 2025. The 30-year-old has scuffled mightily with a .528 OPS to begin the campaign, and the Rockies will give him a chance to reset in the series finale against Cincinnati. McMahon has had ups and downs throughout his career, and he’s a great bounceback candidate in the coming weeks.

Ramón Urías finished 3-for-4 with a homer in the first game of Saturday’s doubleheader against the Tigers.
Maybe the Orioles’ second-best player to date, Urías is batting .340/.403/.434 in 62 plate appearances, and he’s stealing away Ryan Mountcastle’s playing time against righties. He probably doesn’t have any mixed-league value himself — he’s a zero in steals and he doesn’t typically hit for average — but he’s making an impact by cutting into the value of others.
José Ramírez

José Ramírez went 2-for-4 with an RBI and also stole a base, leading the Guardians to a 5-4 victory over the Red Sox in the opening game of Saturday’s doubleheader.
Ramírez put Cleveland on the scoreboard with a run-scoring single to right field in the opening frame. He also picked up his fifth steal of the year a little later in the inning. The 32-year-old fantasy superstar has shown zero signs of slowing down as a consistent all-around contributor.
