Player Notes

  • Swipes bag in loss
    Alvarez went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Mariners.

    Advice: Alvarez was just one of two Astros to have more than one hit on the evening and he recorded his second steal of the year in the sixth. Alvarez now has four multi-hit efforts in his last eight games and nine total for the month of May. For the season, the 27-year-old is slashing .269/.347/.447 with nine homers, 22 RBI, 27 runs and a 23:41 BB:K in 236 plate appearances. Rotowire.com 3 minutes ago
  • Clubs homer in loss
    Benson went 1-for-1 with a walk and a solo home run Tuesday's 7-1 loss to the Cardinals.

    Advice: Benson produced Cincinnati's lone run, taking a Kyle Gibson four-seamer over the fence to lead off the bottom of the sixth inning. It was the eighth homer of the season for Benson, who also provides fantasy value with eight steals. He was eventually removed for a pinch hitter when a lefty reliever entered, which has been the case in his last four starts. Rotowire.com 7 minutes ago
  • Leaves yard Tuesday
    Bregman went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Mariners.

    Advice: Bregman provided the Astros' lone run support with a two-run blast to left in the fourth off Luis Castillo. It was his first home run since May 14 and just his third extra base hit since then. Despite multi-hit efforts in two of his last three games, Bregman is still hitting just .147 over his last eight games. His struggles have persisted throughout the season thus far, with the 30-year-old now slashing .212/.277/.335 with five homers, 23 RBI, 15 runs and a 19:30 BB:K in 224 plate appearances.

  • Two hits in win
    Jankowski started in left field and went 2-for-3 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's 4-2 win over Arizona.

    Advice: Jankowski got the starting nod in left after the Rangers placed Evan Carter (back) on the 10-day injured list. Wyatt Langford returned from his own injury -- a hamstring -- and will also be available for the field. Jankowski has been given sporadic playing time in 2024 and is batting .260/.316/.342 with a home run, three doubles, three steals, six RBI and seven runs scored over 79 plate appearances.

  • Plays outfield
    Garcia started in right field and went 0-for-4 in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: This was Garcia's first start in the outfield since missing two games due to a forearm injury. He's gone 3-for-23 (.130) with a home run, a double and two RBI since his return. Rotowire.com 31 minutes ago
