Brice Turang Back In Action On Thursday

Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Brice Turang (illness) is back at second base and batting in his customary leadoff spot for Thursday's series finale against the hosting Chicago White Sox and right-hander Sean Burke. Turang was scratched from the lineup on Wednesday due to an illness, but he's feeling better a day later and should be returned to all starting lineups in fantasy. The 25-year-old former first-rounder has been one of the most productive second baseman through the first month of the 2025 season, as he enters Thursday's contest in Chicago with a .317/.368/.408 slash line, a .777 OPS, three home runs, 15 RBI, 28 runs scored and eight stolen bases for the Brew Crew in 120 at-bats. In his last seven games, Turang has gone 10-for-29 with a double and four RBI. He has never faced Burke in his MLB career.

Chase Meidroth Reinstated From Injured List And Starting On Thursday

The Chicago White Sox announced on Thursday that rookie infielder Chase Meidroth (thumb) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list and infielder Gage Workman (hip) was placed on the 10-day IL with a right-hip flexor strain. Meidroth is starting at shortstop and is batting leadoff for Thursday's contest against the visiting Milwaukee Brewers and right-hander Chad Patrick. It's nice that Meidroth is back for the Pale Hose and hitting leadoff in his first game back, but he didn't go on a minor-league rehab assignment at all, and this will be just his 10th game in the big leagues. In nine games after being called up early in the 2025 season, the 23-year-old middle infielder has gone 7-for-26 with an RBI, stolen base, four runs scored, five walks and four strikeouts. Meidroth, Jacob Amaya and Brooks Baldwin could all see action at the 6 going forward in Chicago.

Samuel Basallo Snaps Power Skid

Baltimore Orioles catching prospect Samuel Basallo went 2-for-5 with a home run during Wednesday's contest against Charlotte. This game snapped a five-game power drought for the budding star. The 20-year-old has dealt with a lingering hamstring and elbow injury during the start of camp and has held a modest .229/.317/.486 slash line. Across 12 games, Basallo has gone deep just three times and held a 5:5 K:BB. Last season, the top prospect in Baltimore made his Triple-A debut and posted a .229/.267/.370 slash line with three long balls across 21 games. Earlier in the summer, Basallo logged 106 games at Double-A, where he posted a .289/.355/.465 slash line. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his progression at Norfolk, as he should be in the mix for his MLB debut later this summer.

Miguel Andujar Starting At Third Base On Thursday

Athletics infielder Miguel Andujar will make the start at third base and bat fifth in Thursday's series finale against the division-rival Texas Rangers and right-hander Tyler Mahle. This will be Andujar's first start at third base in the big leagues since 2021 with the New York Yankees. The 30-year-old veteran probably won't see enough time at the hot corner to gain eligibility there in fantasy, but the A's have the option to play him there occasionally with Tyler Soderstrom moving to left field once in a while. Andujar is hitting a strong .316 (25-for-79) through his first 22 games with two home runs, 10 RBI and nine runs scored. The Dominican utility man has gone 10-for-23 with a homer, double and triple in six games in the last 14 days. He has never faced Mahle in his career.

Max Muncy Extends Hitting Streak To Six Games

Athletics infield prospect Max Muncy extended his current hitting streak at Triple-A to six games on Wednesday. In this contest, Muncy went 4-for-5 with a double. Across his first six games at the Triple-A, Muncy has posted an impressive .414/.400/.655 slash line with four doubles and one round-tripper. Muncy was able to break camp with the MLB roster, with Zack Gelof missing time. However, through his first 21 games in the MLB, Muncy posted an underwhelming .176/.211/.279 slash line with just one home run. During this stretch, he generated a low .248 xwOBA with a low 25.5 percent hard-hit rate. Fantasy managers should expect the No. 6-ranked prospect in the system to return to the big leagues later this summer, especially if he continues this steady production. For now, he is worth stashing in deeper AL-only formats.
