    Westburg went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Monday's 7-4 win over the Twins.

  • Clubs fourth homer
    Henderson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 7-4 win over the Twins.

    Advice: Henderson logged his fifth multi-hit effort of the season, two of which have come over his last two games. The shortstop has gone 9-for-30 (.300) with two homers and five RBI across his last seven contests, putting his struggles from earlier in May behind him.

  • Homer shy of cycle
    Arias went 3-for-4 with a triple, a double, one RBI and one run scored in Monday's 6-0 win over the Red Sox.

    Advice: Arias came up a home run short of a cycle, but it was still another excellent game for the utility man. He's gone 6-for-10 over his last three contests, with four of those hits going for extra bases. Monday's strong performance lifted his batting average to .308, and he's added a stolen base, five RBI and five runs scored through 27 plate appearances. Arias doesn't have a path to everyday at-bats yet, but he's putting the pressure on Brayan Rocchio, as shortstop has been the weak spot in the Guardians' infield so far.

  • Homers in second straight game
    Polanco went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run, two walks and three total runs in Monday's 9-3 victory versus Cincinnati.

    Advice: Polanco helped the Mariners get off to a fast start with his three-run shot off Frankie Montas in the first inning. It was the second homer in as many days for Polanco, and he's drive in five runs over the two-game span. The veteran infielder could be picking things up after a slow overall start to the season -- he's slashing just .203/.338/.356 with a 32.4 percent strikeout rate through 71 plate appearances.

  • Michael Busch homers in fifth straight game
    Michael Busch made it five straight games with a homer by taking Merrill Kelly deep Monday against the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Kelly had pitched five scoreless innings before Busch hit one 419 feet in the sixth. Busch also walked twice tonight and made a strong case for remaining in the lineup when the Cubs face a lefty in Tommy Henry on Tuesday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:55 pm
     
  • Blasts first homer
    Miranda went 3-for-4 with a home run and two RBI during the Twins' 7-4 loss to the Orioles

    Advice: Miranda came into the game with just two hits in 13 at-bats but topped that mark with three hits Monday to go along with a 411-foot blast to left center that represented his first home run of the season. The 26-year-old Miranda was recalled on April 8 with Monday's game representing his fifth start and seventh appearance since the rejoining the big club. He followed up a strong rookie campaign in 2022 by struggling significantly last season and failing to make the club out of camp this season. However, until Royce Lewis (quad) returns, Miranda should continue to see a decent amount of playing time. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:41 pm
     
  • Austin Riley collects three hits, RBI in win
    Austin Riley went 3-for-5 with an RBI single in a victory over the Astros on Monday.

  • Flores’ go-ahead single lifts Giants over Marlins
    Wilmer Flores’ pinch hit in the seventh inning helped lift the Giants to a 4-3 win over the Marlins on Monday.

    Advice: Flores was not in the starting lineup on Monday, but delivered a clutch RBI single in the seventh inning to score. The 32-year-old came is coming back from a shoulder injury that he suffered at the end of March, but he’s likely to stay in a platoon role as a pinch hitter and at first base. Flores is slashing .250/317/.278 with three RBI in his first 11 games this season Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:13 pm
