It’s an encouraging sign that Schanuel hasn’t been put on the injured list yet, but that could still happen prior to first pitch of Sunday’s series finale at Target Field. It’ll be veteran J.D. Davis at first base in his absence. The 23-year-old first baseman has been diagnosed with a contusion after additional imaging didn’t reveal any fractures after fouling a ball off his right knee during Saturday’s showdown. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for the moment.

It was one run through five, but the sixth began with a single, an error and an RBI double, at which point Soriano was lifted. Both inherited runners later came around to score off Brock Burke. Soriano is a big-time talent with his high-90s heat and ability to generate grounders, but in such a bad situation in Anaheim, mixed-league value is going to be tough to come by. He’ll face the Tigers next.

It’s the eighth straight hitless start for Paris, who is 0-for-24 with 14 strikeouts and no walks during the span. He was so good before the slump that he has still has an .823 OPS, which is 168 points better than the Angels’ team mark. Given that the primary alternative at second base is Tim Anderson, it can’t fathomably hurt the team to stick with Paris for now; he’ll likely continue having issues hitting for average, but that power outburst couldn’t have been a complete fluke. Mixed leaguers, on the other hand, can move on.

Angels manager Ron Washington is trying anything to generate a spark as they’ve been outscored 16-5 through the first two games of this three-game series at Target Field. Trout is hitting just .177 through 26 games, but he leads the American League with nine round-trippers during that span. He’s also chipped in a pair of stolen bases, just for good measure.

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.
