  • 57-29-4 2nd Place
    • Smacks two doubles
      Greene went 2-for-4 with two doubles, a walk, one run scored and one RBI in Sunday's win versus Milwaukee.

      Advice: Greene broke out of a 2-for-19 slump Sunday, hitting two doubles to raise his season total to 14. The 23-year-old has shown improved power this season, matching last season's total of 11 home runs in 149 fewer plate appearances. On the season, the left-fielder is slashing .243/.342/.451 with 11 home runs, 25 RBI and 43 runs scored over 272 plate appearances. Rotowire.com 24 minutes ago

    • Solid in no-decision
      Jones did not factor into the decision Sunday against Minnesota, allowing three runs (two earned) on six hits and three walks in five innings. He struck out three.

      Advice: Jones struggled to find his footing early in this one, allowing all three of his runs in a shaky first inning where he walked two batters and allowed the bases to be loaded with just one out. The 22-year-old rookie was able to settle in afterwards, but his control has been a minor cause for concern recently -- Sunday was his fourth-consecutive game allowing multiple walks. In that span, Jones has compiled a 4.25 ERA, a 1.46 WHIP and a meager 16:11 K:BB over 21.2 innings. Jones is still an excellent fantasy option moving forward, although he will be tested in his next start, currently scheduled for next weekend at Coors Field in Colorado.

    • Blows second save
      Alvarado (1-3) suffered the loss Sunday, allowing three runs (two earned) on two hits and two walks over 0.2 innings against the Mets. He struck out two.

      Advice: Alvarado entered the game with a one-run lead looking to preserve his 12th save but things went downhill quickly. After allowing a walk and a single to start the inning, an infield single by Mark Vientos tied the game. Then with the bases loaded and one out, a hit-by-pitch followed by a passed ball allowed two more runners to score, saddling Alvarado with his second blown save and third loss of the season. Sunday's outing came on the heels of five consecutive scoreless appearances since his last blown save, which came May 24 in Colorado. The outing lifted Alvarado's ERA to 3.54 a 1.14 WHIP and 31 strikeouts through 28 innings this season. Rotowire.com Today, 2:59 pm
       
    • Jazz Chisholm homers in loss to Guardians
      Jazz Chisholm Jr. went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the Guardians on Sunday.

      Advice: Jazz absolutely demolished a fourth-inning offering from Carlos Carrasco 440 feet and 108.1 mph for his ninth home run of the season. The 26-year-old has lowered his strikeout rate and raised his walk rate this season, but it hasn’t led to much of an improvement in batting average. Still, he’s likely going to hit 20 home runs with at least 25 steals, which makes him a great bat for your fantasy teams. Rotoworld Today, 2:47 pm
       
    • Jared Jones battles in no decision on Sunday
      Jared Jones allowed three runs on six hits in five innings in a no-decision against the Twins on Sunday.

      Advice: The rookie also walked three and struck out three on the day. Jones got 14 whiffs on 42 swings for a 33 percent whiff rate and 29 percent CSW, but he also allowed nine hard-hit baseballs on the day. Jones has now allowed three earned runs in four of his last five starts, but the other start was a masterful shutout of the Dodgers, which shows you just how hard it is to bench Jones when he has this much raw talent. There will be some ups and downs in his rookie season, and it’s understandable if you want to bench Jones next week in Coors Field, but the rookie’s stuff hasn’t shown any meaningful decline.

    • Max Scherzer fires four scoreless in rehab start
      Max Scherzer (thumb) fired four shutout innings in his minor league rehab start at Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday afternoon.

      Advice: The 39-year-old right-hander allowed just one hit and one walk on the day while punching out five batters. He threw a total of 53 pitches in the contest and averaged 92.7 mph on his fastball. He’s going to need at least one additional rehab start before he’s ready to return to the Rangers’ rotation, but that day is coming soon. Rotoworld Today, 1:44 pm

    • Needs third rehab start
      Cole (elbow) said after Sunday's rehab outing with Double-A Somerset that he'll require at least one additional rehab start, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports. The right-hander allowed one run on two hits with four strikeouts and no walks over 4.2 innings.

      Advice: Cole threw 44 of 57 pitches for strikes in his second rehab appearance Sunday as he continues building up his workload while coming back from nerve irritation in his elbow. The 33-year-old is trending toward a season debut in late June at the latest, though an exact return date won't come into focus until it's determined how many rehab outings are necessary.

    • Marcus Semien homers in win over Giants
      Marcus Semien went 1-for-3 with a home run, two RBI, and two runs scored in a 7-2 win over the Giants on Sunday.

      Advice: The home run was Semien’s 11th of the season to go along with 37 RBIs. He may not have the triple-slash that you expect to see from Semien, but the counting stats have been great and he is cemented into the leadoff spot for the Rangers. He’s one of the most consistent players in baseball, and so we expect the batting average and power to tick up; however, the lack of speed this season has been a bit concerning for the 33-year-old.

    • Cole (elbow) allows one over 4 1/3 in rehab start
      Gerrit Cole (elbow) went 4 1/3 innings while allowing one run in a rehab start Sunday for Double-A Somerset.

      Advice: Cole struck out four and didn’t allow a walk. The right-hander threw 57 pitches in the outing and was reportedly between 94-96 mph with his fastball in the outing. Cole’s rehab appearances have gone as well as possible thus far, and there’s a good chance he’s back with the Yankees before the end of the month. What a gift that would be for New York and fantasy managers. Rotoworld Today, 12:08 pm
