  • Luis Campusano belts three-run homer in loss
    Luis Campusano went 1-for-2 and belted a three-run homer as the Padres fell to the Phillies on Sunday afternoon in San Diego.

    Advice: Campusano entered the game as a pinch-hitter for Kyle Higashioka in the seventh inning and responded by crushing a 397-foot (106.2 mph EV) three-run blast off of Taijuan Walker that pulled the Padres to within a run at 7-6. That would be as close as they would get. The 25-year-old backstop is now hitting .290/.320/.430 with a pair of homers and 17 RBI on the season. Rotoworld 4 minutes ago

  • Christian Walker goes deep as D’Backs top Mariners
    Christian Walker went 2-for-4 and clubbed a solo home run on Sunday as the Diamondbacks topped the Mariners 3-2 in Seattle.

    Advice: Walker delivered the equalizer for the Diamondbacks in the second inning of this one, blasting a 422-foot (104.8 mph EV) solo shot off of Logan Gilbert. He also added a two-out double off of Gilbert in the fourth inning but wound up stranded there. With the two-hit attack, the 33-year-old slugger is now hitting .271/.383/.439 with five homers and 18 RBI on the season. Rotoworld 12 minutes ago
     
  • Michael Conforto goes 0-for-4 against Pirates
    Michael Conforto finished 0-for-4 against the Pirates on Sunday, leaving him without an RBI in his last five games.

    Advice: Conforto opened the season 13-for-31 with three homers, four doubles and 10 RBI in his first eight games, Since then, he’s 15-for-74 with two homers, two doubles and six RBI in 19 games. He’s been in the lineup regularly against lefties since that fast start, but that probably ought to change, given his recent results. Rotoworld 21 minutes ago
     
  • Henry Davis exits for pinch-hitter versus Giants
    Henry Davis struck out twice before exiting for a pinch-hitter Sunday against the Giants.

    Advice: The Pirates might have batted for him anyway, but Davis did get hit on the right hand while catching today and was definitely feeling it afterwards. Davis has really struggled this season, hitting .169/.282/.215 in 79 plate appearances, and odds are that he’s going to be sent to Triple-A once Yasmani Grandal comes off the IL.

  • Goes deep, swipes bag
    Altuve went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, three runs scored, a walk and a steal in Sunday's win over Colorado.

    Advice: Altuve singled and scored in the first inning after swiping third base. He then drilled a solo shot in the third. The star infielder had been in a short slump recently, going 6-for-30 (.200) with one extra-base hit over his previous seven games. Still, he's sporting a strong .342/.414/.596 slash line with four steals, 15 extra-base hits and 21 runs scored through 28 games. Rotowire.com 24 minutes ago
     
  • Josh Rojas smacks leadoff homer in loss to D’Backs
    Josh Rojas smacked a leadoff home run against his former club on Sunday, but it wasn’t enough to lead the Mariners to victory over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Rojas stepped into the leadoff spot over the weekend with J.P. Crawford on the injured list, and he responded by crushing a pair of leadoff home runs — one on Friday night and another to open the home half of the first inning on Sunday. That one, was a 349-foot (102.8 mph EV) blast off of Brandon Pfaadt. Rojas finished the day 1-for-3 and is now hitting .297/.366/.516 with three homers, six RBI and one stolen base on the season. He plays everyday against right-handed pitching and could be worth a look in deeper mixed leagues, especially while he’s hitting atop the M’s lineup. Rotoworld 24 minutes ago

  • Stays hot against Tampa Bay
    Jimenez went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Rays.

    Advice: Jimenez was able to single and then come around to score on an RBI single by Robbie Grossman in the bottom of the fourth. He later added two more base knocks in the contest, notching his second straight multi-hit performance and his fourth in the last nine games. Over that stretch, Jimenez has batted .351 with three home runs, eight RBI, seven runs scored, three walks and a stolen base over 37 at-bats. Rotowire.com 40 minutes ago
     
  • Wyatt Langford’s first homer is inside-the-parker
    Wyatt Langford made his first career homer an inside-the-parker Sunday in the Rangers’ 4-3 win over the Reds.

    Advice: Langford’s shot to right-center would have been a traditional homer in six ballparks. In Texas, it bounced off a fortunately angled wall and shot far into right field, allowing Langford to score without a play. Langford is batting .248/.325/.327 with 11 RBI through 27 games. It’s not quite what people expected after his huge spring, but he also hasn’t seemed overmatched in the least. He’ll continue improving from here. Rotoworld 44 minutes ago
