  • 46-39-5 5th Place
    • Drives in pair
      Lee went 1-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored Tuesday against the Cubs.

      Advice: Lee delivered a timely two-RBI double in the fourth inning and came around to score in the same frame. It was only his third performance of the season with multiple runs driven in and his first since May 4. Lee has now started six consecutive games, four of which have come at catcher and two at designated hitter. Rotowire.com Today, 10:34 pm
       
    • Blows lead in eighth
      Leasure (0-1) allowed two earned runs on two hits and one walk while striking out two to take the loss Tuesday against the Cubs.

      Advice: Leasure entered the game in the eighth inning and was tasked with protecting a one-run lead. He retired the first batter he faced before allowing three consecutive baserunners, a stretch concluded by a two-run double. Leasure still has a solid 3.12 ERA for the season, but he's struggled considerably across his last five outings, allowing four earned runs with a 7:7 K:BB. Rotowire.com Today, 10:29 pm
       
    • Excels in first rehab start
      Cole (elbow) completed 3.1 scoreless innings in a minor-league rehab start with Double-A Somerset on Tuesday, allowing two hits and striking out five batters.

      Advice: In the first of what is expected to be multiple rehab outings, Cole threw 45 pitches and hit 97 mph on the radar gun, per Brendan Kuty of The Athletic. The veteran hurler surrendered a single to the first batter he faced but yielded just one more hit over the remainder of his outing. The beginning of Cole's rehab stint couldn't have gone much better, but he still figures to need at least a couple more appearances in the minors before he's ready to join the Yankees' rotation. If he doesn't experience any setbacks, the reigning AL Cy Young Award winner could make his season debut for the big club in the latter half of June. Rotowire.com Today, 10:28 pm

    • Drives in five vs. Marlins
      Lowe went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer, a two-run double and two total runs scored in Tuesday's 9-5 win over Miami.

      Advice: It was a big night for Lowe in his first start this year against a left-hander -- the second baseman tied the game 3-3 with a three-run homer off Jesus Luzardo in the fourth inning before adding two more RBI with a double in the fifth. The home run was the second of the season for Lowe, his first since March 29, after spending over a month on the IL with an oblique injury. He's now slashing .203/.320/.406 with 13 RBI and eight runs scored across 75 plate appearances on the campaign. Rotowire.com Today, 10:26 pm
       
    • George Kirby strikes out nine in defeating A’s
      George Kirby fanned nine while allowing two runs over five innings in the Mariners’ 4-3 win over the A’s on Tuesday.

      Advice: This wasn’t Kirby’s smoothest outing, but it was good enough to get him back on the board for the first time in a few weeks. It’s just the second time this season he’s been credited with a victory in an outing in which he’s given up a run. He’s currently 5-5 with a 4.05 ERA and a 74/7 K/BB in 73 1/3 innings.

    • Mitch Spence charged with four runs in loss
      Mitch Spence surrendered four runs in six innings Tuesday in a loss to the Mariners.

      Advice: Spence’s arsenal appears average at best, but he’s thus far held his own in going 4-3 with a 3.86 ERA. The ERA likely will rise if he remains in the rotation, but the early results suggest the Rule 5 pick will at least hold his own in middle relief. Rotoworld Today, 10:25 pm

    • Josh Rojas goes 3-for-5 in Mariners’ victory
      Josh Rojas finished 3-for-5 with a double and an RBI versus the A’s on Tuesday.

      Advice: It’s the first three-hit game for Rojas since May 5, when he raised his average to .360. He’s hit just .229/.275/.282 in 85 plate appearances since that date, but it’s been enough to keep him starting against righties for now. The Mariners could reevaluate that after Jorge Polanco returns. Rotoworld Today, 10:25 pm

    • Dominic Canzone goes 0-for-4 against A’s
      Dominic Canzone went 0-for-4 and struck out twice against the A’s on Tuesday.

      Advice: Canzone has to be on thin ice at this point; he’s 2-for-29 with one RBI since May 21. The Mariners keep playing him in part because his defense is better than Mitch Haniger’s, but that’s an awfully low bar, and if he’s not hitting, they’d almost surely be better off with one of their other several mediocre outfield options.

    • Gets look as leadoff hitter
      Julks went 1-for-5 with a double Tuesday against the Cubs.

      Advice: Even with the return of Luis Robert, the White Sox's outfield remains shorthanded without Andrew Benintendi (Achilles) and Tommy Pham (ankle). As a result, Julks has started 10 consecutive games, during which he's gone 11-for-39 with three doubles, two RBI and three runs scored. Most notable on Tuesday was that Julks took over as the team's leadoff hitter in the absence of Pham. Rotowire.com Today, 10:18 pm
