  • Collects first win
    Harris (1-0) allowed three runs (one earned) on four hits and two walks while striking out three over five innings, earning the win Tuesday over the Royals.

    Advice: Harris has generally pitched well this season, but he had nothing to show for it before Tuesday. He allowed a two-run home run to Nick Loftin in this contest. Harris hasn't allowed more than three runs in any of his last five outings, and he's at a 2.37 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 26:11 K:BB through 30.1 innings over six appearances (four starts) this season. The southpaw is projected to make his next start at home versus the Twins. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:48 pm
     
  • Grabs 16th save
    Diaz earned the save in Tuesday's 2-1 win over Pittsburgh, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning.

    Advice: Diaz made quick work of the middle of the Pirates' order Tuesday, logging his 16th save of the year. The right-hander has now converted his last nine save opportunities despite allowing three runs (two earned) in his prior three innings. Overall, Diaz sports a 5.27 ERA with a 1.50 WHIP and 28:19 K:BB across 27.1 innings this season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:38 pm
     
  • Stuck with first blown save
    Suarez (4-1) took a blown save and the loss in a 4-3 defeat to the Phillies, allowing two runs on four hits in one-third of an inning.

    Advice: Suarez coaxed a flyout from Trea Turner for the final out in the eighth inning before the right-hander surrendered four straight hits in the ninth, ultimately allowing two runs to take his first loss and blown save this season. Suarez had allowed just one run in his previous 27 innings coming into Tuesday. He still sports a stellar 1.21 ERA across 29.2 innings this year with a 0.81 WHIP and 28:6 K:BB while logging 17 saves.

  • Trevor Megill barely avoids game-tying homer
    Trevor Megill barely retired the only batter he faced for his 14th save Tuesday against the Angels.

    Advice: The Brewers led this one 6-0 going into the bottom of the ninth, but both Elieser Hernández and Joel Payamps struggled to put the game away. Megill came in with the tying run at the plate and gave up a long flyball to Taylor Ward that Sal Frelick made a jumping catch on at the wall. Statcast said it would have been a homer in zero of MLB’s 30 stadiums, but it did look like it would have gotten over the wall in Angel Stadium if Frelick hadn’t gotten in the way.

  • Grabs one-out save
    Phillips struck out the only batter he faced to earn the save in Tuesday's 11-9 win over the Rockies.

    Advice: Alex Vesia issued a two-out walk, and Phillips was able to strike out Hunter Goodman on five pitches to secure the save after the Dodgers' ninth-inning comeback. Aside from a three-run misstep in Pittsburgh on June 6, Phillips has pitched well since his return from a hamstring injury. He's at 11 saves with a 1.89 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 22:6 K:BB over 19 innings this season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:09 pm
     
  • Hogan Harris gets first victory of 2024
    Hogan Harris yielded three runs — one earned — in five innings Tuesday in a victory over the Royals.

    Advice: It’s the first win and decision in four starts and two relief appearances for Harris this season. The 27-year-old had a 7.14 ERA in six starts and eight relief appearances for Oakland last year, but he’s at 2.37 right now, having struck out 26 and walked 11 in 30 1/3 innings. He still seems like someone to avoid for fantasy purposes. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:55 pm
     
  • Mason Miller perfect in ninth for 13th save
    Mason Miller recorded his 13th save with a scoreless ninth against the Royals on Tuesday.

    Advice: Miller had it easy tonight, getting one strikeout and a pair of routine flies. He’s had some hiccups of late, but he remains about as good of a bet as any reliever from an ERA and strikeout perspective. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:55 pm
     
  • Alec Marsh tagged for seven runs by A’s
    Alec Marsh was lit up for seven runs in three-plus innings by the A’s on Tuesday.

    Advice: This after he completely shut down the Yankees for seven innings last time out. Marsh got 14 missed swings in the 76-pitch outing, but pretty much everyone who reached base against him came around to score. He’ll take a 5-4 record and a 4.37 ERA into his next start against the Rangers. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:54 pm
     
  • No-decision vs. Philly
    King didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Phillies, allowing one run on six hits and three walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out six.

    Advice: King had to contend with traffic for most of his outing Tuesday, though he'd manage to hold the Phillies to one run before departing in the fifth. The 29-year-old right-hander has pitched well of late, posting a 1.71 ERA with 34 strikeouts over his last five outings (26.2 innings). Overall, King's 5-4 with a 3.49 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 101:37 K: BB across 87.2 innings this season. He's currently lined up for a home matchup with the Brewers this weekend in his next start.
