    • Hurls six shutout innings in win
      Paxton (5-0) earned the win over the Padres on Saturday, pitching six shutout innings while allowing four hits and striking out four.

      Advice: Paxton never found himself in any serious trouble throughout the contest, allowing only one extra-base hit as the Dodgers cruised to a shutout win. The veteran lefty threw 15 of 22 first pitches for strikes and produced 10 whiffs on the night en route to earning his fifth win of the campaign. Paxton has allowed one run or fewer in back-to-back starts and in four of his seven outings this season. Saturday also marked his first start this season in which he didn't issue a walk.

    • Big Maple silences Padres to collect fifth win
      James Paxton fired six shutout innings on Saturday in a win over the Padres.

      Advice: Paxton continues to excel in his Los Angeles debut, reeling off six scoreless frames to stun the division-rival Padres at Petco Park. He finished with four strikeouts, didn’t hand out a free pass, and allowed just six batted balls with an exit velocity in excess of 95 mph. The 35-year-old veteran southpaw has managed to stay healthy so far, and has been an impact fantasy contributor, despite a steep decline in strikeout percentage. He’s overdue for some regression in the run-prevention department, but he’s been effective so far. He’ll bring a sparkling 2.58 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 22/24 K/BB ratio across 38 1/3 innings (seven starts) into a home outing on Thursday against the Reds. Rotoworld Today, 4:05 am
       
    • Stumbles in second start
      Means escaped with a no-decision in Saturday's 5-4 extra-innings win over the Diamondbacks, giving up four runs on six hits over 4.2 innings. He struck out three without walking a batter.

      Advice: The southpaw got tagged for two runs in the third and fifth innings, but the Orioles scored in the eighth to tie up the game and take Means off the hook for his first loss before eventually walking it off in the 11th. He tossed 60 of 89 pitches for strikes, and he has a 3.09 ERA and 11:0 K:BB through his first 11.2 innings on the year. Means will look to sharpen things up on his next outing, which is scheduled to come at home next weekend against the Mariners. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:56 pm
       
    • Homers, plates four
      Arozarena went 2-for-3 with a home run and four RBI in Saturday's victory over the Yankees.

      Advice: Arozarena made a baserunning blunder following a walk in the first inning when he overslid the second base bag while trying to advance on a flyout. He immediately made up for it in his next plate appearance with an opposite-field, three-run homer. Arozarena later doubled in another run and scored again to cap off a big night. While Arozarena has still been striking out too much this month (30.8 percent), he now has four home runs in his first nine May contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:20 pm
       
    • Randy Arozarena homers, plates four to lead Rays
      Randy Arozarena homered and drove in four runs on Saturday, leading the Rays to a 7-2 victory over the Yankees in Tampa Bay.

      Advice: The 29-year-old outfielder clobbered a 385-foot (102.5 mph EV) three-run shot off of Nestor Cortes in the third inning, giving the Rays a 4-2 lead that they would never relinquish. He also added a run-scoring double in the seventh inning and scored on a sacrifice fly by Isaac Paredes. The 29-year-old outfielder finished the afternoon 2-for-3 plus a walk, raising his season-slash to a still horrifying .154/.253/.329 to go along with seven homers, 17 RBI and six stolen bases.

    • John Means allows four over 4 2/3 against D-Backs
      John Means allowed four runs over 4 2/3 innings Saturday against the Diamondbacks while not factoring into the decision.

      Advice: Means was outstanding Saturday against the Reds. This outing would best be described as shaky at best. The left-hander gave up six hits, and he struck out three while not issuing a walk. The 31-year-old gave up a two-run homer to Ketel Marte in the third, and two more were charged to him after he exited with one out in the fifth. Means will try and bounce back Friday against the Mariners. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:20 pm
       
    • Getting breather Saturday
      Stanton is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

      Advice: Stanton went 2-for-4 in the series opener Friday. Trent Grisham will start in center field while Aaron Judge shifts to DH against Rays right-hander Zack Littell. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:36 am
       
    • Not starting Saturday
      Mullins is not in the Orioles' lineup for Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

      Advice: Mullins has struggled over his last three outings, going 1-for-12 with five strikeouts over that span. Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Mullins is "pressing big-time," per Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com, though Mullins is still available off the bench for Saturday's contest. Heston Kjerstad will start at left field while Colton Cowser shifts to center field. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:37 am
       
    • Two more RBI
      Steer went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double and two RBI in Friday's 4-2 win over San Francisco.

      Advice: Steer's first-inning, two-out double plated the Reds' first run, then his third-inning single tied the game. He has four RBI in the last two games and leads the Reds with 27 runs driven in. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:27 am
