    Fry went 3-for-3 with a two-run homer in Friday's win over the Twins.

    Advice: Fry put Cleveland ahead with his 364-foot, two-run home run in the sixth inning off reliever Steven Okert. The 28-year-old utility man has been especially hot since the calendar turned to May, hitting .366 (11-for-30) this month. Over 95 plate appearances this season, Fry is slashing .333/.453/.560 with four homers, 15 runs scored and 14 RBI. Rotowire.com 20 minutes ago

  • Alec Bohm drives in run as Phillies beat Nationals
    Alec Bohm clubbed an RBI double on Friday as the Phillies defeated the Nationals in Philadelphia.

    Advice: Bohm opened the scoring in the home half of the first inning, plating J.T. Realmuto with his run-scoring double off of Nationals’ right-hander Jake irvin. That would be his only hit in four at-bats on the night. For the season, the 27-year-old slugger is now hitting a robust .331/.397/.521 with four long balls, 37 RBI and a pair of stolen bases.

  • Homer, three RBI in win
    Triolo went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and an additional RBI in Friday's 9-3 win over the Cubs.

    Advice: Triolo opened the scoring in the third inning with a two-run shot off Kyle Hendricks before driving in a third run with a base hit in the fourth. It's the first multi-hit game since May 3 for Triolo -- he'd gone just 2-for-30 in his prior 10 contests. The 26-year-old infielder is now slashing .201/.291/.257 with two homers, 15 RBI, eight runs scored and three steals through 41 games this season. With Ke'Bryan Hayes (back) set to resume baseball activities early next week, Triolo could soon be headed back to a bench role. Rotowire.com Today, 2:47 pm

  • Kyle Manzardo rides the pine again on Friday night
    Kyle Manzardo is not in the Guardians’ starting lineup for Friday night’s battle against the Twins.

    Advice: Fantasy managers were hopeful that Manzardo would at least find himself as a regular against right-handed pitching once he was promoted from Triple-A Columbus, but that hasn’t been the case so far. The 23-year-old slugger has hit just .148/.207/.185 with zero RBI and a 10/1 K/BB ratio in his first 29 plate appearances at the game’s highest level. David Fry will function as the Guardians’ designated hitter on Friday night and will bat fifth against Simeon Woods Richardson and the Twins. Rotoworld Today, 2:26 pm
     
  • Jared Triolo homers as part of three-RBI day
    Jared Triolo delivered a two-run homer and an RBI single against the Cubs on Friday.

    Advice: Ke’Bryan Hayes’ back injury gave Triolo a reprieve when Nick Gonzales was called up, but Gonzales is performing well so far (.824 OPS) and Triolo will need more of this if he’s going to stick around after Hayes returns. Triolo entered the day having gone hitless in his last four games and having collected only three extra-base hits in 161 plate appearances on the season. He’s at .201/.291/.257 overall.

  • Joey Gallo (shoulder) rejoins Nationals on Friday
    Nationals activated 1B/OF Joey Gallo from the 10-day injured list.

    Advice: The 30-year-old slugger had been sidelined since late April with an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder. Prior to landing on the shelf, he was hitting just .122/.286/.311 with three homers, five RBI, one stolen base and a 43/15 K/BB ratio across 91 plate appearances. He’ll start at first base and bat cleanup against Zack Wheeler and the Phillies on Friday evening in Philadelphia. Rotoworld Today, 2:05 pm
