    • Brent Rooker goes deep in loss to Blue Jays
      Brent Rooker blasted his 13th home run of the season on Sunday afternoon, but it wasn’t enough to lead the Athletics past the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Rooker got the A’s on the board with his 436-foot (110.0 mph EV) solo shot on the first pitch that he saw from Nate Pearson in the sixth inning. That would be his only hit in five at-bats on the day. For the season, the 29-year-old slugger is slashing a respectable .270/.356/.541 to go with his 13 long balls and 40 RBI.

    • Reaches twice in shutout loss
      Rooker went 1-for-3 with a walk in a loss to the Blue Jays on Saturday.

      Advice: The Athletics managed only five hits -- all singles -- against a masterful Kevin Gausman in the shutout loss, so Rooker had what could be termed a relatively successful night in that context. The 29-year-old has been one of the Athletics' more consistent bats over the first two months-plus of the season yet is off to an uneven start to June -- he's recorded a double, triple, home run and four RBI, but he's also hitting just .217 overall (5-for-23) while striking out at a 33.3 percent clip.

    • Isaac Paredes not starting Sunday vs. Orioles
      Isaac Paredes is not in the starting lineup Sunday against the Orioles.

      Advice: Paredes, 25, will take a break for the first time in nearly a month (May 13). The power-hitting third baseman will get a day of rest with Taylor Walls taking his place in the lineup at shortstop and Jose Caballero moving over to the hot corner. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:48 am

      Advice: Paredes will not start for the first time since May 13 against the Red Sox. Over the first two games of the series, the 24-year-old has gone 0-for-7 with two strikeouts. Jose Caballero will shift over to third base Sunday, while Taylor Walls starts at shortstop against Orioles right-hander Grayson Rodriguez. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:42 am

    • Goes deep twice in loss
      Judge went 2-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs and a walk Saturday in a loss to the Dodgers.

      Advice: It was a humbling game for the Yankees as a team, but Judge continued his offensive domination of the league, hitting solo shots in the third and ninth innings. The slugger has reached base safely in 33 straight contests, hitting an even .400 (46-for-115) with 17 homers, 39 RBI, 37 runs, four stolen bases and a 32:33 BB:K over the jaw-dropping stretch. Judge leads the majors with 23 total long balls on the campaign and ranks second with 57 RBI. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:23 pm
       
    • Enjoys massive day at dish
      Hernandez went 2-for-4 with a pair of home runs, a walk, six RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 11-3 rout of the Yankees.

      Advice: Hernandez got the scoring started Saturday with a solo shot to center field in the second inning. He added an RBI on a fielder's choice in the sixth before busting the game open for Los Angeles with a 424-foot grand slam in the eighth. Hernandez went just 2-for-16 over his first four games in June, but he's turned scorching hot since, going 7-for-13 with two homers and nine RBI across his past three contests. Hernandez is putting up big numbers in his first campaign with the Dodgers, slashing .262/.331/.500 with 15 homers, 47 RBI, 38 runs and four steals through 278 plate appearances.

    • Reaches 15-steal mark
      Rengifo went 0-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Saturday's 6-1 loss to the Astros.

      Advice: Rengifo is one of 11 players to reach 15 steals so far this season, though he's also been caught five times. He's gone 0-for-8 over the last two games after opening June with a five-game hitting streak. The infielder is slashing .312/.361/.447 with four home runs, 18 RBI and 24 runs scored over 48 contests as one of the top hitters in the Angels' lineup. Rotowire.com Saturday, 10:59 pm

    • Jake Cronenworth drives home four vs. D-Backs
      Jake Cronenworth drove in four runs while homering in a 13-1 rout of the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

      Advice: Cronenworth annihilated a Logan Allen pitch in the fourth inning to extend the Padres’ lead to 7-0. The infielder also singled home a run an inning later to give him his fourth RBI of the game and 44th of the season. Cronenworth has scuffled at the plate as of late, but the metrics suggest he’s due for more games like this over the summer. Rotoworld Saturday, 10:09 pm
       
    • Aaron Judge homers twice in loss to Dodgers
      Aaron Judge homered twice in a loss Saturday to the Dodgers.

      Advice: Judge continues to absolutely dominate — there really is no other word for this — since his slow start, and the pair of homers puts him up to 23 on the season. He’s already up to three roundtrippers in June, and the pair of RBI brings him to 12 on the month and 57 on the season. Sensational. Rotoworld Saturday, 10:04 pm
