Hello everyone, and thank you for taking time out of your busy Easter Sunday (if you partake in the religious festivities) to check out the Gameday. Let's move along right to the action from yesterday. Mookie Betts continues to defy all projections for him, going 4-5 yesterday with his second home run, three runs scored, and a strike out. Mookie is now hitting a toasty .453/.492/.717 with nine extra base hits, four stolen bases and a whopping 17 runs scored already, tops in AA. Jon Singleton launched his league leading seventh home run, and racked up a trio of strike outs with three RBI. Organization mate Carlos Correa finished a long ball short of the cycle, picking up his second double and triple on the year with wo runs scored, a walk, and he was caught stealing.

Check out the rest of the Top 100 below along with the injury list and probable starters for the day ahead. We have a shortened slate because of the holiday, but be sure to scroll down and see who is still playing today. Enjoy!
