  • Swipes 12th bag Wednesday
    Garcia went 2-for-5 with two runs scored and a stolen base in Wednesday's 8-3 win over the Tigers.

    Advice: The 24-year-old put together his fourth multi-hit performance in the last five contests as he extended his hitting streak to 10 games. Garcia is batting .364 (16-for-44) over that stretch, boosting his slash line on the season to .266/.311/.429 with five homers, 12 steals, 30 runs and 32 RBI. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:47 pm
  • José Caballero with two hits, swipes base in loss
    José Caballero went 2-for-4 with two RBI, a run scored, and a stolen base in a loss to the Red Sox on Wednesday.

    Advice: The stolen base was Cabellero’s 18th of the season and tied him with Brice Turang for second-most in the league behind only Elly De La Cruz. Those steals alone have turned him into one of the best bargains from draft season so far and as the Rays’ roster crunch becomes more crowded, Caballero’s defense at shortstop is very likely to keep him on the field every day.

  • Corey Seager homers in third straight game
    Corey Seager went 2-for-3 with a homer, single, and two walks on Wednesday in a loss to the Phillies.

    Advice: Seager gave the Phillies fits all night as they didn’t retire him until his final at-bat. The home run was his eighth of the season, third in as many days, and sixth since May 6th. He’s shaken off a slow start to the season in a big way. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:35 pm
  • Launches first career homer
    Paris went 1-for-2 with a walk and a two-run home run in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Astros.

    Advice: The 22-year-old gave the Angels all the offense they would need on the afternoon when he took Hunter Brown deep in the fifth inning. It was Paris' first career big-league homer in his 26th game, and while power isn't a big part of his game, he did slug 14 home runs in 113 contests for Double-A Rocket City in 2023. Paris got the start at second base Wednesday but slid over to shortstop, and he could be looking at a longer run at the latter position if Zach Neto (elbow) winds up missing significant time.

  • Set for tests on elbow
    Neto will undergo further testing on his right elbow in Los Angeles after exiting in the bottom of the fifth inning of Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Astros, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

    Advice: Neto went 0-for-2 with a strikeout before he was lifted in the bottom of the fifth inning shortly after he made a high throw from shortstop. The Angels labeled his injury as right elbow soreness, but more clarity on the severity of the injury should be known once his tests are completed. For what it's worth, Neto said the Angels' training staff told him that his injury doesn't appear to be serious. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:53 pm
  • Masyn Winn slugs solo homer in Cardinals’ win
    Masyn Winn went 2-for-4 with a solo homer on Wednesday, lifting the Cardinals to a 5-4 victory over the Orioles.

    Advice: Winn helped the Cardinals emerge victorious in a battle of the birds at rain-soaked Busch Stadium, supplying a pivotal insurance run with a seventh-inning homer off Orioles reliever Cole Irvin. It was his second round-tripper of the season and second time he’s gone deep in his last five contests. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:51 pm
  • Gunnar Henderson reaches three times in O’s loss
    Gunnar Henderson singled and walked twice on Wednesday in the Orioles’ loss to the Cardinals.

    Advice: Henderson kicked off the scoring with an RBI single in the third inning and wound up reaching base safely in three of his five plate appearances. The 22-year-old franchise cornerstone is in the midst of one of the best stretches of his young career, batting .280/.419/.840 with four homers and one steal over his last seven games.

  • Filling in for injured Riley
    Short will start at third base and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

    Advice: Short will draw a ninth consecutive start at the hot corner while Austin Riley (side) remains day-to-day. The 28-year-old has delivered a solid .345 on-base percentage over his prior eight starts, but he's provided little fantasy value with a .208 average, zero home runs or stolen bases and two RBI and runs during that stretch. He'll fall back into a light role once Riley is cleared to return to the lineup. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:41 pm

  • Bobby Witt Jr. plates two in victory over Tigers
    Bobby Witt Jr. went 2-for-4 with a pair of RBI on Wednesday, leading the Royals to an 8-3 victory over the Tigers.

    Advice: Witt did his damage in the late stages of the contest, tacking on a pair of insurance runs with a two-run double in the seventh inning. The 23-year-old fantasy superstar is on fire at the moment, batting .370 (10-for-27) with two homers and one steal over his last seven games. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:39 pm
