    • Mashes fifth homer
      Semien went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Friday's victory over the Reds.

      Advice: Semien's eighth-inning homer broke the tie in a game that had been deadlocked at 1-1 since the second frame, and it ended up being all that was needed to lift Texas over the Reds in Friday's low-scoring affair. The 33-year-old has now reached the 20-RBI mark in just 27 games, though he's gone just 4-for-25 with two RBI across his last six contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:22 am
       
    • Marcus Semien homers in eighth to lead Rangers
      Marcus Semien hit his fifth homer Friday as the Rangers bested the Reds 2-1.

      Advice: Semien nearly had two homers, but his 410-foot drive to center in the fifth, which Statcast said would have been gone in 18 parks, was caught at the wall. The actual homer was hit 392 feet and broke a 1-1 tie in the eighth. It gave hm 19 runs scored and 20 RBI in 27 games, even though it doesn’t seem like either he or the Rangers offense as a whole has really caught fire yet. Rotoworld Friday, 11:22 pm
       
    • Vladimir Guerrero Jr. goes 0-for-4 in defeat
      Vladimir Guerrero Jr. finished 0-for-4 with an RBI against the Dodgers on Friday.

      Advice: Typical Guerrero this year: he crushed a pair of grounders at 109.5 and 106.7 mph, yet his two flies were both hit softly. Statcast thinks he’s been unlucky, and he probably has been, but even his xBA and xSLG are down significantly from last year. Rotoworld Friday, 6:56 pm
       
    • Goes deep in victory
      Hernandez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Thursday in a 2-1 win over Washington.

      Advice: Hernandez's second-inning solo shot put the Dodgers on the board and amounted for half of the team's total output of runs in the low-scoring win. The long ball was the slugger's sixth of the campaign and his first over his past 11 contests. Hernandez has trailed off a bit of late after a strong start to his Dodgers tenure, but he still ranks second on the team and is tied for 11th in the majors with 20 RBI.

    • Belts two homers in win
      Julien went 2-for-4 with two solo homers in Thursday's win over the White Sox.

      Advice: Julien has shown good power early in the season with seven home runs and a .513 SLG, with three of those long balls coming in his past four contests. He's hitting just .213 and has a 31.9 percent strikeout rate, which is a marginal increase on his strikeout rate from last season. Rotowire.com Thursday, 10:13 pm
       
    • Julien has two hits, home run in win over CWS
      Edouard Julien went 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs, and two RBI in a win over the White Sox on Thursday.

      Advice: The 24-year-old hasn’t had a great start to the season, but he’s playing every day and is starting to find his groove a little at the plate. Although his season slash line is just .213/.308/.513, he has seven home runs and nine RBI and is 7-for-24 over his last six games with two home runs. With the Twins as banged up as they are, he should continue to get a chance to right the ship, and his elite plate discipline and strong batted-ball quality make him a fine waiver-wire target to see if he can keep his hot stretch going.

    • Not in Thursday's lineup
      Hayes is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Brewers, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

      Advice: Hayes looks to be getting some routine maintenance for a day game after a night game. With Hayes on the bench, the Pirates will shift Jared Triolo over to third base Thursday and give Alika Williams a start at second base. Rotowire.com Thursday, 7:38 am
       
    • Gets Wednesday break
      Campusano is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

      Advice: Campusano will get a rest day after starting six of eight games in the Padres' last three series. The 25-year-old catcher is slashing .288/.321/.413 with 14 RBI through 84 plate appearances on the year. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 2:55 pm
       
    • Corbin Carroll goes 0-for-3 from seventh spot
      Corbin Carroll went 0-for-3 with a walk as the Diamondbacks’ No. 7 hitter on Wednesday.

      Advice: Dropping Carroll to seventh against a right-hander seems like an overreaction to his slow start, but it’s not something that figures to last. It is rather concerning how rarely Carroll is hitting the ball hard this year, but his excellent approach has remained intact, and the batting average will surely start to climb.
