Player News
Ronny Mauricio went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, stolen base and two runs scored in a win for the Mets on Saturday over the Rockies.
Mauricio gets the combo meal in a blowout win over the lowly Rockies. Still counts. The 24-year-old has his first homer of the 2025 campaign, and the steal is also his first after being recalled from Syracuse on Tuesday. Mauricio is still young enough to live up to the lofty expectations he once had, but fantasy managers shouldn’t be rushing to add the infielder just yet.
Francisco Lindor went 3-for-5 and stole two bases while helping the Mets to an 8-1 win over the Rockies on Saturday.
Lindor’s first game back in the starting lineup was a successful one. The fractured pinkie toe clearly wasn’t bugging him too much, as he swiped a pair of bags to bring his total to 13 in 2025. Lindor may get some maintenance days to prevent aggravation, but it doesn’t appear that this injury will slow him down. Literally and figuratively.
Germán Márquez allowed four runs over five innings to take a loss to the Mets on Saturday.
Márquez is now 2-8 on the season and has an ERA of exactly 7.00. He’s not a good pitcher, and he pitches for the worst team in baseball. Atlanta gets the pleasure of facing him next weekend.
Clay Holmes gave up one run over six innings to get a win over the Rockies on Saturday.
Holmes gave up nine hits, but the only run he allowed came on a solo homer off the bat of Ryan McMahon. The 32-year-old didn’t issue a free pass, and he struck out six in another successful outing. Holmes now has an ERA of 2.95 on the season, and you cannot say the conversion to starter has been anything but a success. He gets the Rays next weekend.
Colton Cowser clobbered a solo homer while going 2-for-5 in a 7-4 win for the Orioles over the Athletics on Saturday.
Ramón Laureano hit a two-run homer while driving in three runs while going 3-for-5 in a win over the A’s on Saturday.
