DJ LeMahieu - Pops first homer LeMahieu went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Mets.

Impact In his third game since recovering from calf and hip injuries to make his belated season debut, LeMahieu was able to poke a Griffin Canning fastball down the right-field line into the Yankee Stadium short porch for a third-inning homer, and his first long ball of the year. The 36-year-old infielder has three hits in eight at-bats since being activated, and he should see regular playing time at second base while Jazz Chisholm (oblique) remains sidelined.

Clarke Schmidt - Quality start despite shaky control Schmidt didn't factor into the decision in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Mets, allowing two runs on three hits and five walks over six innings. He struck out five.

Impact The five free passes tied Schmidt's career high, but he was able to limit the damage and deliver his third straight quality start on 88 pitches (53 strikes). The right-hander will carry a 4.41 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 30:17 K:BB through 32.2 innings into his next outing, which is scheduled to come at home next week against the Rangers.

Juan Soto - Steals another bag Soto went 1-for-4 with a walk, a run scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Yankees.

Impact The superstar outfielder isn't known for his prowess on the basepaths -- his career high in steals is 12, a mark he last reached in 2023 -- but Soto has now successfully swiped a bag in three straight games and is a perfect 5-for-5 through 45 contests as a Met. He's also drawn 14 free passes through 14 games in May, helping to boost his slash line on the year to .252/.386/.454 with eight homers, 20 RBI and 33 runs.

Edwin Díaz - Perfect in save No. 10 Diaz struck out two in a perfect ninth inning Saturday to record his 10th save of the season in a 3-2 win over the Yankees.

Impact The veteran right-hander's adrenaline was pumping, and Diaz topped out at 100 mph on a fastball before fanning Aaron Judge with a 98.6 mph heater to end the game. That's a big step up from the career-low 96.6 mph Diaz has been averaging with the pitch this season, and a very encouraging sign as he produced his eighth straight appearance without allowing an earned run. The 31-year-old sports a 3.00 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 26:8 K:BB through 18 innings, and he's a perfect 10-for-10 in converting save chances.

Griffin Canning - Settles for no-decision Saturday Canning came away with a no-decision in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Yankees, giving up two runs on seven hits and a walk over 5.1 innings. He struck out four.

Impact The right-hander saw his streak of five straight starts allowing one run or fewer come to an end, but it was still a stingy performance. Canning racked up 30 called or swinging strikes among his 92 pitches (64 total strikes), and he'll take a 2.47 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 46:17 K:BB through 47.1 innings into his next outing, which lines up to come at home next weekend against the Dodgers.
