J.D. Martinez - OF - Astros

J.D. Martinez went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in the Astros' 3-1 victory over the Royals on Wednesday.

Martinez now has two-straight two-hit games, providing the game-winning homer off James Shields in Wednesday's game. The homer was his fourth, and he's now got 14 RBI in 28 games this year. The Astros don't have any reason not to bat him in the middle of the lineup if he continues to produce, but that's not worth much in a barren Houston lineup.

Jose Veras - R - Astros

Jose Veras picked up his eighth save of the season as the Astros beat the Royals on Wednesday.

After a rough start to the year, Veras has settled into Houston's ninth-inning role nicely, converting his last six save opportunities and turning in seven consecutive scoreless outings. He now has a 3.32 ERA and 1.00 WHIP through 19 innings.
May 22 - 11:11 PM
James Shields - S - Royals

James Shields allowed just two runs in seven innings but took the loss against the Astros on Wednesday.

Shields committed one mistake, a two-run homer by J.D. Martinez, but the Astros pitchers made it stand up to saddle Shields with his fifth loss. He was otherwise stellar, allowing seven hits while striking out seven on the night. Despite the 2-5 record, Shields has been as good as advertised for the Royals this season, now owning a 2.47 ERA with a 0.96 WHIP. He will get the Cardinals next.
May 22 - 11:10 PM
Jordan Lyles - S - Astros

Jordan Lyles went six innings, allowing just one run, as the Astros beat the Royals on Wednesday.

Lyles has made five starts in May, with Wednesday's being his best of the bunch. He struck out just three but limited the Royals to six hits in his six innings. Aside from one bad start in which he allowed eight runs in four innings, Lyles has been serviceable for the Astros thus far. His next start will be Tuesday against the Rockies.
May 22 - 11:09 PM
Chris Davis - 1B - Orioles

Chris Davis went 4-for-4 with his 14th home run Wednesday, and the Orioles beat the Yankees 6-3.

Davis continues to tear the cover off the baseball, now hitting .329/.420/.690 through 45 games this season. He is tied with Justin Upton for the league lead in home runs, and he trails only Miguel Cabrera in RBI. Davis is showing that his breakout 2012 was legit.
May 22 - 10:48 PM
Curtis Granderson - OF - Yankees

Curtis Granderson went 3-for-3 with his first home run of the season, but the Yankees lost to the Orioles on Wednesday.

The home run came seven games in, and it gave him his first RBI of 2013. His third-inning double was also a first. Yankees manager Joe Girardi had Granderson batting leadoff in an attempt to get his bat going. He should move toward the middle of the order eventually.
May 22 - 10:34 PM
Matt Wieters - C - Orioles

Matt Wieters went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer as the Orioles beat the Yankees on Wednesday.

Wieters brought out the lumber, doubling off starter Hiroki Kuroda before homering off reliever Preston Claiborne. The home run was Wieters' seventh on the year and helped lift his RBI total to 26.
May 22 - 10:27 PM
Hiroki Kuroda - S - Yankees

Yankees manager Joe Girardi said he would be "shocked" if Hiroki Kuroda (calf) was unable to make his next start.

Kuroda's calf tightened up on him an inning after he was hit with a comebacker Wednesday, forcing him to leave the game. But he'll be fine. The right-hander is scheduled to face the Mets early next week.
