Carson Williams Called Up, Worth Adding in Deeper Leagues?
The Tampa Bay Rays announced on Sunday that they recalled infielder Carson Williams from Triple-A Durham after placing outfielder Jake Fraley (hernia) on the 10-day injured list. Williams, who made his major-league debut in 2025, made the Rays' Opening Day roster but was quickly sent back to the minors after going 3-for-23 (.130) at the plate with one walk and nine strikeouts in just seven games played. He also struggled in 32 games as a rookie, batting .172 (17-for-99) with five homers, 12 RBI, two steals, six walks, and 44 strikeouts in 106 plate appearances. Taylor Walls, the team's current shortstop, is a whizz with the glove, but he doesn't provide much offensively, so the first-place Rays could give Williams another run at the position. The former first-rounder in 2021 was hitting .238/.333/.418 with a .751 OPS, five home runs, 21 RBI, six steals, and 24 runs in 32 games for Durham before his call-up. In deeper leagues, Williams is worth a dart throw for middle-infield depth. He's rostered in just 1% of Yahoo leagues, so he's widely available.

Jeremy Pena Could Rejoin Astros on Monday
Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (hamstring, neck) could come off the 10-day injured list and rejoin the team on Monday for the start of their series against the Minnesota Twins, according to Brian McTaggart of MLB.com. Pena has been on the IL for a month due to a hamstring strain, and then he collided with a baserunner earlier this week on his minor-league rehab assignment with Double-A Corpus Christi and missed a few games due to neck soreness. He was able to return to action on Friday, though, and he appears to be ready to rejoin the big-league roster after going 2-for-11 with two doubles in three rehab games with the Hooks. It's great news for a struggling Astros team that has already lost veteran infielder Carlos Correa (ankle) for the rest of the season. The 28-year-old Pena has only played in 10 games so far in 2026 due to injuries, going 11-for-43 (.256) with no homers, a stolen base, and five runs scored. He will be an everyday player at the 6 in Houston after missing his first 20-20 season in 2025 by three home runs. Pena is only available in 20% of Yahoo leagues.

Ryan O'Hearn Goes on Injured List With Quad Strain
Pittsburgh Pirates first baseman/outfielder Ryan O'Hearn (quadriceps) is going on the 10-day injured list on Sunday with a right-quad strain, according to Pirates reporter Jason Mackey. O'Hearn was pulled from Saturday's game early against the Philadelphia Phillies with right-quad discomfort, and now the 32-year-old veteran will miss at least the next 10 games. O'Hearn went hitless in just one at-bat on Saturday before leaving and is hitting a strong .291/.370/.462 with an .832 OPS, seven home runs, 29 RBI, 27 runs scored, and a stolen base in 158 at-bats over his first 43 games with the Pirates this year. Now that he will be sidelined for a bit of time, both Nick Yorke and Billy Cook could see more time in the Bucs' outfield for at least the next 10 days. O'Hearn's strong season to this point had earned him some looks off the waiver wire, and he's currently rostered in 72% of Yahoo leagues. Surprisingly, O'Hearn has improved against lefties this year, going 13-for-46 (.283) with one of his seven home runs against them.

Samuel Basallo a Waiver Priority While on Nine-Game Hitting Streak
Baltimore Orioles catcher Samuel Basallo went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 13-3 loss to the hosting Washington Nationals in D.C. to extend his current hitting streak to nine games. The left-handed-hitting Dominican backstop is now batting .278 on the year with an .833 OPS as one of the better young hitters in the game. He also has a decent .341 on-base percentage and .492 slugging percentage with six home runs and 17 RBI on the year across 138 plate appearances. The 21-year-old will see regular playing time between catcher and designated hitter while sharing time behind the plate with Adley Rutschman. Manager Craig Albernaz has said that Basallo has earned the right to face left-handed pitchers, which is huge. So far in 2026, he's gone 7-for-25 (.280) against southpaws with one of his six home runs. Basallo is one of the better young catchers in the game, and he's rostered in only 40% of Yahoo leagues at the moment.
