Marlins sign Kouzmanoff to minor league deal

Marlins signed 3B Kevin Kouzmanoff to a minor league contract.

The deal includes an invite to spring training. Kouzmanoff, 31, spent all of 2012 in the Royals' farm system but could push for a platoon role with Greg Dobbs in Miami. The Marlins have also signed right-hander Jordan Smith to a minor league deal.

Adams homers, drive in six in win over Giants

Matt Adams plated six of the Nationals’ 15 runs Wednesday in a win over San Francisco.

Adams entered Wednesday’s action with four RBI for the year. He bettered that in a single afternoon, shredding the Giants for three hits including a three-run homer off Jeff Samardzija. Adams added to the carnage by driving in another two runs in the eighth inning, increasing the Nationals’ lead to 13 (seriously). The three hits Adams provided Wednesday were as many as he had in his previous six games COMBINED. If you were bold enough to use Adams in DFS today, go collect your winnings.

Trea Turner erupts for five hits vs. Giants

Trea Turner impressed with five hits Wednesday in the Nationals’ blowout win over the Giants.

Turner’s day included four singles, two runs scored, a double and a stolen base. The Nats absolutely slaughtered the Giants in this one, cruising to a season-high 15 runs including six off starter Jeff Samardizja. Wednesday’s outburst raised Turner’s season average from .232 to .267. That’s lower than it should be, though Turner has remained a fantasy asset by collecting 10 steals, which leads the National League.

Gray goes six scoreless in win over Friars

Jon Gray hurled six shutout frames Wednesday in the Rockies’ win over the Padres.

He racked up 11 punch-outs while allowing just three hits (all singles) and one walk. The right-hander threw 65 of his season-high 101 pitches for strikes. The only time San Diego posed even a remote threat came in the fourth inning when Gray yielded a one-out walk to Carlos Asuaje followed by a single to Wil Myers. The victory ended a three-game slide for Gray, who is now 2-0 against the Padres and 0-4 versus everyone else. The big right-hander will take an ugly 5.79 ERA into his next start Tuesday against the Cubs.

Carlos Correa extends hitting streak to 10

Carlos Correa reached base twice Wednesday in the Astros’ win over the Angels.

Correa walked in the fourth inning and later scored on a bases-clearing double by Alex Bregman. He followed that up in the sixth by ripping a double to right field off Halos right-hander Nick Tropeano. In doing so, he extended his hitting streak to 10 games. Correa’s .341 average through 88 at-bats ranks seventh in the American League.

Jose Altuve swats first home run of 2018

Jose Altuve slugged his first home run of the year Wednesday in the Astros’ win over the Angels.

Altuve went hitless with a walk in his other three plate appearances. The reigning AL MVP teed off on Nick Tropeano in the sixth inning, extending Houston’s lead to 4-0 by belting a solo shot to left field. Altuve hasn’t shown much power in the early going—Wednesday’s home run was only his fifth extra-base hit of the year—though he’s still hitting for average with a .333 mark through 102 at-bats.

Verlander dominates Halos, improves to 4-0

Justin Verlander gave up four hits and two runs over seven stellar innings Wednesday in the Astros’ win over the Angels.

He notched nine strikeouts over his 97 pitches. Verlander had a perfect game going until Zack Cozart broke it up with a two-out single in the fifth inning. He cruised through his first six innings but seemed to run out of gas in the seventh, allowing a solo home run to Albert Pujols and an RBI double to Cozart later in the frame. Including the postseason, Verlander is now 13-1 with a 1.55 ERA in 17 appearances (16 starts) since joining Houston late last season. Wednesday was the first time the right-hander threw to a catcher other than Brian McCann, who caught all of Verlander’s previous starts with Houston.

Albert Pujols now six hits away from 3,000

Albert Pujols launched his fifth home run of the season Wednesday in the Angels’ loss to the Astros.

The three-time MVP ended Justin Verlander’s shutout bid in the seventh by drilling a solo shot to left field. That marked the 619th home run of his illustrious career. Pujols is now just six hits away from 3,000, a milestone he could reach in the Angels’ upcoming series against the Yankees.

A's acquire RHP Font from Dodgers

Athletics acquired RHP Wilmer Font from the Dodgers in return for LHP Logan Salow.

Font, 27, was designated for assignment by the Dodgers on Monday after allowing 13 runs in his 10 1/3 innings with Los Angeles. The right-hander has shown swing-and-miss stuff, but he's also shown he doesn't command that stuff very well. Expect him to pitch in low-leverage situations for the Athletics, with an outside chance of making some starts.

Beltre (hamstring) headed to disabled list

Rangers placed 3B Adrian Beltre on the 10-day disabled list with a left hamstring strain.

Beltre strained the hamstring while hustling out a single in the eighth inning against the Athletics on Tuesday. The Rangers called up outfielder Ryan Rua to take his place. Beltre has been a quick healer in his career, and assuming there are no setbacks in his rehab he should be back with Texas in a couple of weeks.

Beltre (hamstring) not in lineup against A's

Adrian Beltre is not in the lineup on Wednesday against the Athletics.

Beltre was diagnosed with a left hamstring strain on Tuesday after running down the line on an RBI single against the Athletics. He hasn't been placed on the disabled list yet, but a trip to the 10-day DL could be in the cards for the 39-year-old. Isiah Kiner-Falefa will play third in Beltre's place.

Thames diagnosed with torn UCL in left thumb

Brewers placed 1B Eric Thames on the 10-day disabled list with a torn UCL in his left thumb.

Awful news, as Thames was having another tremendous April. UCL thumb tears can sometimes cost players as much as two months and sap power production even when the player returns. Jesus Aguilar will get a boost in starts at first base in Thames' absence, and Ryan Braun could also see more action at the position. Thames had a .976 OPS and seven home runs through 22 games this season for Milwaukee.
