Smashes homer in winGarver went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run and two walks in Friday's 3-2 win over the Rangers.
Advice: Garver is up to eight homers this season, and he's hit three of them over his last eight games. In that stretch, he's batting .250 (6-for-24) with eight RBI and two doubles. It's encouraging to see more power out of the 33-year-old -- he went 18 games without a homer between May 13 and June 5. Garver is slashing a poor .176/.300/.352 across 230 plate appearances this season, though he's added 25 RBI, 23 runs scored and 10 doubles while seeing fairly steady playing time at designated hitter.

Mitch Garver connects on two-run homer in winMitch Garver hit a two-run homer to help the Mariners to a 3-2 win over the Rangers on Friday.
Advice: Garver tied the game at 2-2 in the first inning with a blast that scored J-Rod in the first inning. The veteran backstop/DH has been swinging the bat much better as of late, and he’s now homered eight times with 25 RBI. Garver’s slash of .176/.300/.352 isn’t aesthetically pleasing, but again, those numbers aren’t indicative of the last few weeks. RotoworldMitch GarverSEA - CBot 5, 2-0 vs TEX -
Homers vs. MiamiThomas went 2-for-5 with a three-run homer in Friday's 8-1 win over the Marlins.
Advice: Thomas provided the big blow in the Nationals' seven-run third inning with a homer off Shaun Anderson, his fifth long ball this season. The 28-year-old outfielder extended his hit streak to eight games -- he's gone 10-for-29 (.345) in that span. Overall, Thomas is slashing .231/.295/.359 with 21 RBI, 18 runs scored and 16 stolen bases through 40 games this year. Rotowire.comLane ThomasWSH - OFW, 3-1 vs MIA -
Lane Thomas mashes three-run homerLane Thomas went 2-for-5 on Friday with a home run, three RBI, and a run scored in a win over the Marlins.
Advice: Thomas has once again been a dynamo this season in the heart of the Nationals’ order. The home run was his fifth in just 40 games - a 20 homer pace - to go along with 16 stolen bases. His .231 batting average and .295 on-base percentage are a bit of a drag, but are easy to stomach with those gaudy counting numbers. RotoworldLane ThomasWSH - OFW, 3-1 vs MIA -
Good to go FridayArenado (hand) is starting at third base and batting cleanup Friday against the Cubs, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
Advice: The 33-year-old had X-rays come back negative on his right hand after being hit by a pitch Thursday, and he's apparently fine given he's back in the lineup a day later. Arenado is 8-for-20 with two doubles and two RBI in his past five games, and he has a .273/.340/.386 slash line through 12 contests in June. Rotowire.comNolan ArenadoSTL - 3BW, 2-1 @CHC -
Gets rout startedWalker went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI in Thursday's 11-1 win over the Angels.
Advice: Walker told Steve Gilbert of MLB.com that he was not happy with how he was handling fastballs, so he put in extra work in the batting cage this week. It paid off immediately when Walker belted a three-run homer off a four-seamer in the first inning to give Arizona a 3-0 lead. "I've been missing fastballs [and fouling them] straight back a little bit and it's been bothering me," Walker said. He followed that up with a solo shot in the third -- a slider this time. The first baseman has three long balls over the last two games and leads the team with 15 home runs and 46 RBI through 69 contests. Rotowire.comChristian WalkerAZ - 1BBot 4, 9-1 vs CWS -
Christian Walker homers twice in blowout victoryChristian Walker plated four runs while homering twice in a blowout victory over the Angels on Thursday.
Advice: Walker made it 3-0 Diamondbacks in the first inning with his roundtripper off Griffin Canning with a pair of runners on. His second homer of the game came in the third inning, and it traveled an estimated 464 feet. That’s fair. Walker remains one of the more underappreciated sluggers in baseball with 15 homers and a .480 slugging mark over the first 69 games of the campaign.

Blasts homer in winGoldschmidt went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's win against the Pirates.
Advice: He plated the first runs of the game, taking Mitch Keller deep in the third inning. With the long ball, Goldschmidt snapped a 14-game homerless drought. The veteran now has a hit in 11 of his last 12 games, but he still has just five RBI over his last 15 contests. The first baseman has a .226/.299/.354 slash line with eight home runs and 27 RBI through 65 games this season. Rotowire.comPaul GoldschmidtSTL - 1BW, 2-1 @CHC -
X-rays negative on Nolan Arenado’s right handX-rays came back negative on Nolan Arenado’s right hand.
Advice: Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol told reporters Arenado is day-to-day with a bone bruise in his right hand. The 33-year-old third baseman, who finished 0-for-4 on Thursday afternoon, appears to have avoided serious injury after being hit by a pitch on the back of his right hand while striking out swinging during his final at-bat. He might require a couple games off to let the pain and swelling subside, but it doesn’t appear he’s facing an extended absence. RotoworldNolan ArenadoSTL - 3BW, 2-1 @CHC
