  • Homers in back-to-back games
    Gorman went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an RBI single and two total runs scored in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Red Sox.

  • Perfect at plate Saturday
    Freeman went 4-for-4 with a walk, a double, three runs, three RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 11-4 victory versus Minnesota.

    Advice: Freeman batted out of the leadoff spot for the sixth straight contest and broke out with the first four-hit game of his career. Among those knocks was a run-scoring double and a two-run single. Freeman is still batting just .221 on the season, but he may be rounding into form, as he's gone 8-for-17 with a 4:1 BB:K during his current five-game hitting streak. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:12 pm

  • Gio Urshela has three hits in victory over D’Backs
    Gio Urshela went 3-for-5 with a pair of doubles and an RBI in a lopsided victory over the Diamondbacks on Saturday night in Arizona.

    Advice: Urshela started a six-run uprising in the seventh inning with a leadoff double off of Zac Gallen. He scored the team’s first run on an RBI double off the bat of Javier Báez. The 32-year-old infielder then came to bat again later in the inning and delivered an RBI single that increased the Tigers’ lead to 6-2. With his three-hit evening, Urshela is now hitting .290/.300/.348 with zero homers and seven RBI in 71 plate appearances on the year. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:04 pm
  • Slugs league-leading 14th homer
    Henderson went 1-for-3 with his major league-leading 14th home run in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Mariners.

    Advice: Not only was it flamethrowing reliever Andres Munoz who Henderson took deep in the ninth inning, but he did so to the opposite field and over the 13-foot wall in left field in an impressive showing of power. It cut the Mariners' lead to one at the time, but that was as close as the Orioles would get. It was the second game in a row with a homer for Henderson, who also drew a pair of walks Saturday.

  • Four-hit game Saturday
    Chapman went 4-for-4 with a walk and four runs scored in Saturday's 14-4 win over the Rockies.

    Advice: Chapman doubled and singled twice and also stole his fifth base of the season as he filled the stat sheet. The veteran third baseman had three hits and a steal in Friday's contest, as well, so perhaps he's finally starting to turn the corner. Chapman had been demoted to as low as seventh in the Giants' batting order earlier this month, but he's hit cleanup for the last two games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:12 pm
  • Vientos has two-hit game Saturday
    Mark Vientos went 2-for-4 with a double, a walk, a run scored, and an RBI against the Marlins on Saturday.



    Advice: Vientos had an RBI single in the first inning and later scored on a Harrison Bader single. He has started back-to-back games, but he’s in a platoon with the left-handed Brett Baty at third base. Neither one is more than a deep league option as long as they continue to share playing time.
