    • Aaron Judge hits 24th homer as Yankees top Dodgers
      Aaron Judge blasted his 24th home run of the season on Sunday night, helping to power the Yankees to victory over the visiting Dodgers.

      Advice: Judge connected on a titanic 434-foot (107.6 mph EV) solo shot off of Yohan Ramirez in the eighth inning, increasing the Bombers’ lead to 6-4. The 32-year-old superstar also smacked a run-scoring double in the third inning. He then singled and rode home on Trent Grisham’s three-run blast in the sixth. With his 3-for-4 night, Judge is now slashing an absurd .305/.436/.703 to go with a league-leading 24 homers, 59 RBI and five stolen bases. Rotoworld Today, 6:56 pm
       
    • Teoscar Hernández leaves the yard in loss to Yanks
      Teoscar Hernández clubbed his 16th home run of the season as the Dodgers fell to the Yankees on Sunday evening in New York.

      Advice: The 31-year-old slugger followed up his two-homer performance on Saturday with another mammoth shot on Sunday — this time a 414-foot (102.3 mph EV) solo shot off of Luis Gil in the sixth inning that gave the Dodgers a 3-2 advantage. It would be short-lived though. Hernández also doubled in the ballgame, finishing the night 2-for-4. On the season, he’s now slashing .266/.333/.516 with the aforementioned 16 long balls and 48 RBI.

    • James McArthur gives up three runs to take loss
      James McArthur took a loss to the Mariners on Sunday after allowing three runs — two earned — in the 10th inning.

      Advice: It was his third appearance in four days. McArthur had been perfect in three outings since a disastrous May 31 outing in which he gave up four runs without retiring a batter to take a blown save. This pushes his ERA back up to 5.27, and the Royals are going to have start thinking about giving John Schreiber save chances. Rotoworld Today, 5:22 pm
       
    • Luis Rengifo swipes two bases as Angels top Astros
      Luis Rengifo continued his thieving ways in Sunday’s victory over the Astros, going 2-for-4 with a run scored and a pair of stolen bases.

      Advice: Rengifo led off the fifth inning with a single off of Justin Verlander, swiped second base and then raced around to score on an RBI single by Willie Calhoun. He also reached on an error in the ninth inning and nabbed second again, but was ultimately stranded there. The versatile 27-year-old entered the season with 18 career stolen bases through his first 448 ballgames. This season, he has already swiped 17 bags in his first 49 games while hitting a robust .316/.367/.448 with four homers and 18 RBI. Rotoworld Today, 4:54 pm

    • Jose Altuve belts 10th homer in loss on Sunday
      Jose Altuve went 4-for-5 and belted his 10th home run of the season on Sunday, but it wasn’t enough to lead the Astros past the Angels in Los Angeles.

      Advice: Altuve capped off a four-run rally in the sixth inning with his 406-foot (103.2 mph EV) two-run blast off of Hunter Strickland that extended the Astros’ lead to 7-4. That would be the extent of their scoring though. The 34-year-old second baseman also got the Astros on the board with a run-scoring single in the third inning then scored on an RBI knock by Jeremy Pena. He’s in the midst of another outstanding season at the dish — slashing .297/.348/.454 with 10 homers, 25 RBI and nine stolen bases. Rotoworld Today, 4:54 pm

    • Notches ninth save
      Neris picked up his ninth save of the season Sunday against the Reds, striking out two batters in a scoreless ninth inning. He did not allow a baserunner.

      Advice: Neris was sharp, striking out the first two batters he faced before inducing a groundout to secure a 4-2 victory for the Cubs. The 34-year-old veteran has enjoyed a nice start to the month of June, notching saves in three of his four appearances and a win in the other. During that stretch, Neris has pitched four scoreless innings, allowing just one hit and two walks while collecting six strikeouts. Rotowire.com Today, 4:07 pm
       
    • 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.

    • 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.

    • Héctor Neris perfect in ninth versus Reds
      Héctor Neris threw a perfect ninth with a two-run lead for a save Sunday against the Reds.

      Advice: Neris has been effective throughout, but it’s come with an ugly K/BB ratio. Fortunately, he’s starting to turn that around some now, having struck out six and walked two in four innings this month. He has a 22/17 K/BB ratio now, compared to 13/14 through his first 16 appearances this season. Rotoworld Today, 2:08 pm
