Notches first winDuran (1-2) picked up the win Sunday against Pittsburgh, striking out one in a scoreless ninth inning. He did not allow a baserunner.
Advice: Duran was roughed up by Pittsburgh Saturday, allowing three earned runs in 0.2 innings. The hard-throwing right-hander was able to rebound Sunday, pitching a clean ninth inning to earn his first win. Duran has not received a save opportunity since June 2 but he is still the Twins top closer, going a perfect 10-for-10 in save chances after missing the first month of the season with an oblique injury.

Brent Rooker goes deep in loss to Blue JaysBrent Rooker blasted his 13th home run of the season on Sunday afternoon, but it wasn’t enough to lead the Athletics past the Blue Jays.
Advice: Rooker got the A’s on the board with his 436-foot (110.0 mph EV) solo shot on the first pitch that he saw from Nate Pearson in the sixth inning. That would be his only hit in five at-bats on the day. For the season, the 29-year-old slugger is slashing a respectable .270/.356/.541 to go with his 13 long balls and 40 RBI.

Cruises to sixth winImanaga (6-1) picked up the win Sunday against the Reds, allowing two earned runs on five hits and one walk in 6.2 innings. He struck out seven.
Advice: Imanaga notched his seventh quality start of the season despite allowing a home run for the third consecutive start. The southpaw struggled in his previous two appearances, allowing 12 runs (eight earned) in just 8.2 innings. Despite the recent rough patch, the 30-year-old rookie has been excellent this season, pitching to a 1.96 ERA and a 1.03 WHIP with an elite 72:11 K:BB in 69 innings. He will look to build off Sunday's start his next time out, currently scheduled for next weekend versus the Cardinals. Rotowire.comShota ImanagaCHC - SPW, 7-1 @ATL -
Homer short of cycleWestburg went 3-for-5 with a double, a triple and two runs scored during Sunday's 9-2 win over Tampa Bay.
Advice: Westburg hit a triple for the second consecutive game, bringing his season total to five triples -- tied for the fourth most in baseball. The third baseman did most of his damage against the bullpen, with his triple coming off Phil Maton in the eighth inning and notching a single off Pete Fairbanks in the ninth. Westburg is 6-for-14 with a homer, three RBI and three runs over the first three games of the O's four-game set against Tampa Bay. Rotowire.comJordan WestburgBAL - 2B,3BW, 3-2 vs TOR -
Shota Imanaga wins for first time in a monthShota Imanaga got back into the win column Sunday after allowing two runs in 6 2/3 innings versus the Reds.
Advice: He struck out seven. Imanaga, who was 5-0 through six turns this season, had gone five straight starts without a win, though only the last two of those outings were bad. His ERA stands at 1.96, and the Cubs are 10-2 when he pitches, compared to 22-32 the rest of the time. RotoworldShota ImanagaCHC - SPW, 7-1 @ATL -
Reaches twice in shutout lossRooker went 1-for-3 with a walk in a loss to the Blue Jays on Saturday.
Advice: The Athletics managed only five hits -- all singles -- against a masterful Kevin Gausman in the shutout loss, so Rooker had what could be termed a relatively successful night in that context. The 29-year-old has been one of the Athletics' more consistent bats over the first two months-plus of the season yet is off to an uneven start to June -- he's recorded a double, triple, home run and four RBI, but he's also hitting just .217 overall (5-for-23) while striking out at a 33.3 percent clip.

Still out of lineupSeager (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Giants.
Advice: Seager will miss his third straight game Sunday due to a left hamstring strain he sustained Wednesday against the Tigers. The Rangers have an off day Monday, so the 30-year-old will have four days off before the upcoming road series against the Dodgers starting Tuesday. Josh Smith will once again start at shortstop Sunday, while Ezequiel Duran serves at the hot corner against Giants right-hander Keaton Winn. Rotowire.comCorey SeagerTEX - SSW, 4-0 vs CLE -
Corey Seager (hamstring) out again Sunday vs. SFCorey Seager (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Giants.
Advice: Seager is going to miss a third straight game while dealing with a left hamstring injury. The 30-year-old is considered day-to-day, and there’s a good chance he returns to the lineup early next week. Josh Smith gets another start at shortstop in Seager’s absence and will hit second as Texas tries to avoid a three-game sweep. RotoworldCorey SeagerTEX - SSW, 4-0 vs CLE -
Sitting SundayLewis is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Pirates.
Advice: Lewis will begin Sunday's game in the dugout after going 1-for-8 with three strikeouts over the first two games of the series. The 24-year-old third baseman came off the injured list Tuesday after missing almost 10 weeks due to a strained right quadriceps, so rest days are to be expected. Jose Miranda will start at third base Sunday, while Trevor Larnach serves as the designated hitter against Pirates right-hander Jared Jones. Rotowire.comRoyce LewisMIN - 3BL, 0-4 vs NYY
