Busch takes a seat for the first time in Chicago’s last 13 games, dating back to April 9. The 27-year-old first baseman is off to an exceptional start this season at the plate, hitting .295 (26-for-88) with five homers, 16 RBI and two steals through 26 games. It’ll be Justin Turner at the cold corner on Saturday afternoon in his place.

Suzuki was in the lineup on Saturday, batting second as the designated hitter. He drove in three of the team’s four runs on the day, starting with a two-RBI single in the fifth inning. He later drove in a run with his second base hit in the seventh. The 30-year-old outfielder is slashing .292/.361/.552 with six homers and 23 RBI across 108 plate appearances.

Brown had stranded four runners through three scoreless innings before unraveling in the fourth. The first five batters would reach on a hit batter and four straight singles. A sacrifice fly, base hit, and a double would make it a six-run inning against Brown before he was relieved with two outs. While the 25-year-old right-hander has flashed some upside with strikeout ability, he’s allowing too much traffic on the bases to sustain any success. He’ll end the day with a 6.04 ERA, 1.89 WHIP, and a 31/14 K/BB ratio across 25 1/3 innings. Brown is currently scheduled to make his next start against the Brewers in Milwaukee on Friday.

Happ has 16 hits during a nine-game hitting streak that’s raised his average from .208 to .274. Being the major league leader in plate appearances for a strong offensive team has definitely aided his fantasy value in the early going. He’s not off to an outstanding start with his .738 OPS, but he’s ninth in the majors with 21 runs scored and tied for 44th with 14 RBI.

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.

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.

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.
