    • Logs save No. 19
      Holmes picked up the save Sunday against the Dodgers. He pitched a scoreless ninth but allowed two hits and struck out a batter.

      Advice: Holmes quickly got the first two outs of the inning, but then ran into some trouble after allowing back-to-back base hits to bring Mookie Betts up to the plate. Holmes was able to get Betts to whiff on a slider to end the game and pick up his 19th save. Holmes is now tied with Emmanuel Clase for second in baseball in saves. He's been excellent this season, posting a 1.23 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 29:8 K:BB in 29.1 innings. Rotowire.com Today, 3:59 am
       
    • Continues hot stretch at plate
      Hernandezs went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Sunday's 6-4 loss to the Dodgers.

      Advice: Hernandez followed up his two-homer effort Saturday with another in the sixth Sunday off Luis Gil to put the Dodgers up 3-2. He's now produced four multi-hit games in a row and has seven extra-base hits over that span. For the year, the 31-year-old is now slashing .266/.333/.516 with 16 homers, 48 RBI, 39 runs and a 23:81 BB:K in 282 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 3:04 am
       
    • Clay Holmes walks tightrope, but escapes with save
      Clay Holmes walked the tightrope against the Dodgers in the ninth inning on Sunday, but managed to escape with a two-run lead intact to earn his 19th save of the season.

      Advice: Holmes had no trouble getting the first two outs of the inning, but then he allowed singles to Gavin Lux and Enrique Hernandez to put the tying runs on base for Mookie Betts. He battled back though, getting Betts on a swinging third strike to close it out for the Yankees. The 31-year-old hurler has been outstanding this season, posting a 1.23 ERA and 29/8 K/BB ratio over 29 1/3 innings to go along with his 19 saves. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:56 pm
       
    • Teoscar Hernández leaves the yard in loss to Yanks
      Teoscar Hernández clubbed his 16th home run of the season as the Dodgers fell to the Yankees on Sunday evening in New York.

      Advice: The 31-year-old slugger followed up his two-homer performance on Saturday with another mammoth shot on Sunday — this time a 414-foot (102.3 mph EV) solo shot off of Luis Gil in the sixth inning that gave the Dodgers a 3-2 advantage. It would be short-lived though. Hernández also doubled in the ballgame, finishing the night 2-for-4. On the season, he’s now slashing .266/.333/.516 with the aforementioned 16 long balls and 48 RBI.

    • Jurickson Profar leaves the yard in loss Sunday
      Jurickson Profar socked his 10th dinger of the season on Sunday afternoon in a lopsided loss to the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: The 31-year-old outfielder continued his hot-hitting ways, crushing a 384-foot (102.5 mph EV) solo shot off of Tommy Henry in the third inning, pulling the Padres to within four runs at 7-3. That would be as close as they would get. Profar also singled in the contest, finishing the afternoon 2-for-4. He’s now slashing an unbelievable .325/.420/.504 with 10 homers, 43 RBI and four stolen bases on the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:21 pm
       
    • Jose Altuve belts 10th homer in loss on Sunday
      Jose Altuve went 4-for-5 and belted his 10th home run of the season on Sunday, but it wasn’t enough to lead the Astros past the Angels in Los Angeles.

      Advice: Altuve capped off a four-run rally in the sixth inning with his 406-foot (103.2 mph EV) two-run blast off of Hunter Strickland that extended the Astros’ lead to 7-4. That would be the extent of their scoring though. The 34-year-old second baseman also got the Astros on the board with a run-scoring single in the third inning then scored on an RBI knock by Jeremy Pena. He’s in the midst of another outstanding season at the dish — slashing .297/.348/.454 with 10 homers, 25 RBI and nine stolen bases. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:54 pm

    • Notches ninth save
      Neris picked up his ninth save of the season Sunday against the Reds, striking out two batters in a scoreless ninth inning. He did not allow a baserunner.

      Advice: Neris was sharp, striking out the first two batters he faced before inducing a groundout to secure a 4-2 victory for the Cubs. The 34-year-old veteran has enjoyed a nice start to the month of June, notching saves in three of his four appearances and a win in the other. During that stretch, Neris has pitched four scoreless innings, allowing just one hit and two walks while collecting six strikeouts. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:07 pm
       
    • Héctor Neris perfect in ninth versus Reds
      Héctor Neris threw a perfect ninth with a two-run lead for a save Sunday against the Reds.

      Advice: Neris has been effective throughout, but it’s come with an ugly K/BB ratio. Fortunately, he’s starting to turn that around some now, having struck out six and walked two in four innings this month. He has a 22/17 K/BB ratio now, compared to 13/14 through his first 16 appearances this season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:08 pm
       
    • Jack Flaherty (back) won’t start Tuesday vs. WSH
      Jack Flaherty (back) will not start Tuesday against the Nationals.

      Advice: Flaherty told reporters that he was confident he’d be able to start Tuesday’s game after leaving with back tightness against the Rangers last week, but the Tigers want to give the right-hander some more time to recuperate. Kenta Maeda, Reese Olson and Casey Mize will start in the series against Washington, and Flaherty will get the ball against the Astros on either Friday or Saturday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:38 am
