  • Otto López has hit, steal in win
    Otto López went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in a win over the Mets on Tuesday.

    Advice: The steal was López’s fifth on the season, and the 25-year-old is hitting .293/.321/.414 in 36 games for Miami in 2024. He has emerged as the regular second baseman and has posted solid batting averages during his minor league career, which suggests he could be a viable deep league option as a middle infielder with a good average and chip-in home runs and steals.

  • Ezequiel Tovar homers, drives in three vs. Twins
    Ezequiel Tovar launched a three-run homer on Tuesday in the Rockies’ win over the Twins.

    Advice: Tovar’s three-run homer in the top of the sixth broke a scoreless tie in what had been a pitcher’s duel through the first five innings. The 408-foot blast marked Tovar’s 11th homer of the season and pushed his RBI total to 31 on the year. He’s now hit safely in four straight games and is slashing .286/.302/.500 this month with three home runs. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:31 pm
     
  • David Hamilton has two hits in loss
    David Hamilton went 2-for-4 with a double in a loss to the Phillies on Tuesday.

    Advice: Hamilton is now hitting .289 on the season and came into today hitting .338 in 23 games since taking over the starting shortstop job for the Red Sox. Given that he also has 13 steals in 42 games, he deserves to be rostered in far more formats. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:04 pm
     
  • CJ Abrams triples, collects RBI in Nats’ victory
    CJ Abrams went 1-for-4 with an RBI on Tuesday, leading the Nationals to a 5-4 extra-inning win over the Tigers in a 10-inning marathon.

    Advice: Abrams extended Washington’s early lead with a run-scoring triple in the fifth inning before coming around to score on a sacrifice fly from ensuing batter Lane Thomas. The 23-year-old speedster has been in a bit of a rut offensively over the last few weeks, hitting .203 (25-for-123) with only three homers and two steals over his last 30 games.

  • Jorge Mateo hits three-run homer, O’s edge Braves
    Jorge Mateo launched a three-run homer on Tuesday, propelling the Orioles to a 4-0 victory over the Braves.

    Advice: Mateo made an immediate impact in his return to Baltimore’s lineup, connecting on a hanging curveball from Braves ace Max Fried, launching a no-doubter to left-center field in the second inning of his first contest back from the injured list following a one-week absence due to a concussion. It was his lone hit in three at-bats and just his fourth long ball of the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:10 pm

  • Corey Seager out Tuesday with hamstring injury
    Corey Seager (hamstring) remains absent from the lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Dodgers.

    Advice: This certainly qualifies as a surprise since Seager was expected to be ready to roll for Tuesday’s highly-anticipated showdown at Dodger Stadium after getting a couple games off to address some mild hamstring left soreness. The 30-year-old fantasy superstar will miss his fourth straight contest and remains day-to-day for the moment. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:54 pm
     
  • Still not starting Tuesday
    Seager (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Dodgers.

    Advice: Despite a team day off Monday, Seager's absence will extend to four games as he continues to nurse the hamstring strain he suffered Wednesday versus Detroit. Ezequiel Duran will take over at shortstop and bat seventh Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:44 pm
