    • Mitchell Parker can’t keep the ball in the yard
      Mitchell Parker allowed five earned runs across six innings on Wednesday against the Mets. He struck out five without walking a batter in this no-decision.

      Advice: The shortest home run the Mets hit off Parker was 413 feet by Tyrone Taylor and all five of their hits went for extra-bases. They clearly had a plan to attack Parker and there wasn’t much he could do about it. One fun adjustment, Parker was throwing his splitter two ticks harder and it maxed out at 89.4 MPH. He forced six swings-and-misses on it across twelve total swings and it made the Mets’s hitters look foolish a few times. Rotoworld 14 minutes ago
       
    • Ryan Mountcastle (illness) returns to action
      Ryan Mountcastle (illness) returned to the Orioles’ starting lineup for Wednesday night’s battle against the Mariners.

      Advice: Mountcastle sat out each of the team’s previous games due to illness, but he’s now feeling much better and is right back in there as the Orioles’ designated hitter and cleanup hitter. On the season, he’s hitting .273/.317/.460 with 11 homers and 40 RBI in 325 plate appearances over 78 games. Rotoworld Today, 3:39 pm
       
    • Back in lineup
      Mountcastle (illness) will serve as Baltimore's designated hitter and bat fourth Wednesday against the Mariners, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

      Advice: After missing two games while fighting off an illness, Mountcastle will now return to the starting nine against Logan Gilbert and the M's. Mountcastle had gone 4-for-17 with an RBI and a run scored in his last five games before getting sick. Rotowire.com Today, 3:31 pm
       
    • Receiving breather
      Bailey is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta.

      Advice: Bailey will get the day off Wednesday after catching four straight games. Curt Casali will fill in behind the dish and bat eighth. Rotowire.com Today, 1:41 pm
       
    • Homers in second straight
      Vaughn went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Tuesday against the Guardians.

      Advice: Vaughn got the scoring going with a home run in the first inning, his 11th of the season and second in as many matchups. He also extended his hitting streak to five games, during which he's gone 7-for-16 with five RBI and six runs scored. The recent stretch has also brought Vaughn's OPS to .701, its highest mark at any point this season. Rotowire.com Today, 9:12 am
       
    • Shohei Ohtani hits 27th homer in win over D-backs
      Shohei Ohtani clobbered his 27th home run of the season on Tuesday night as the Dodgers rallied to defeat the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Ohtani, who told reporters afterwards that he’s unlikely to participate in the upcoming All-Star Home Run Derby, led off the home half of the first inning with a double and scored the game’s first run on an RBI double off the bat of Teoscar Hernandez. He then flipped the game in the Dodgers’ favor with a mammoth 433-foot (112.0 mph exit velocity) two-run shot off of Justin Martinez in the seventh inning that made it a 4-3 ballgame. Ohtani finished the night 3-for-5 and is now slashing an absurd .320/.402/.646 with 27 homers, 64 RBI and 16 swipes. Rotoworld Yesterday, 11:18 pm
       
    • Homer among three hits in win
      Ohtani went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run, a double and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Ohtani was a triple shy of the cycle in another impressive game from atop the order. Over his last 20 games, the superstar has slugged 12 homers and driven in 23 runs while batting .351 (26-for-74). He's been outstanding all year and seems to be getting better with his recent performance. Ohtani has a .320/.402/.646 slash line with 27 long balls, 64 RBI, 69 runs scored and 16 stolen bases through 83 contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:09 pm
       
    • Anthony Santander propels Orioles past Mariners
      Anthony Santander went 2-for-4 and drove in a run on Tuesday evening, leading the Orioles to a 2-0 victory over the Mariners in Seattle.

      Advice: Santander broke a scoreless tie in the fourth inning as he smacked an RBI single into right field off of George Kirby in the fourth inning that plated Gunnar Henderson. The 29-year-old outfielder also led off the second inning with a single, but he was ultimately erased on a double play. With his two-hit attack, Santander is now hitting .234/.302/.503 with 22 homers and 56 RBI on the year. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:32 pm
       
    • Still out Tuesday
      Mountcastle (illness) isn't in the Orioles' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners.

      Advice: An illness kept Mountcastle out of Sunday's game versus Texas, and he'll remain sidelined Tuesday as he continues to feel under the weather. Ryan O'Hearn will get the nod at first base while Heston Kjerstad serves as the DH. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:29 pm
