  • 93-88-29 5th Place
    • Falls triple short of cycle
      Olson went 3-for-5 with a home run, double, three RBI and a run scored Sunday against the Pirates.

      Advice: Olson's eighth-inning blast off Aroldis Chapman was a no-doubter over the right field wall, clearing the stadium and splashing down in the Allegheny River. Olson had previously added a two-run double and finished the game just a triple short of the cycle. Over his last 13 games, Olson has six multi-hit efforts, batting .308 with four homers, two doubles, 11 RBI and six runs scored in that span. Rotowire.com Today, 4:53 pm
       
    • Homers in three-hit game
      Torkelson went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double and two additional runs scored in Sunday's 14-11 victory over Toronto.

      Advice: Torkelson entered this game in an 0-for-19 slump but broke out in a big way, registering his first three-hit game since April 19. The 24-year-old took Blue Jays starter Yusei Kikuchi deep in the fourth inning, his fourth home run over his past 13 games. On the season, the 2020 No. 1 draft pick is batting .218 with four home runs, 18 RBI and 24 runs scored in 50 games played. Rotowire.com Today, 2:22 pm
       
    • Not starting Sunday
      Busch is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

      Advice: Even with right-hander Sonny Gray taking the mound for the Cardinals on Sunday, the lefty-hitting Busch will begin the series finale in the dugout. Patrick Wisdom will start at first base in Busch's stead and will bat eighth. Rotowire.com Today, 1:49 pm
       
    • Matt Olson with three hits, home run in win
      Matt Olson went 3-for-5 with a home run, double, and three RBI against the Pirates on Sunday.

      Advice: Olson paced the Braves in this one, smoking three hard-hit balls capitalized by a late, 107.8 MPH homer off of Aroldis Chapman. Olson’s finally breaking out of his early season malaise bringing his OPS up from .665 to .744 since May 8th. Rotoworld Today, 1:30 pm
       
    • Spencer Torkelson goes 3-for-5, homers
      Spencer Torkelson finished 3-for-5 with a homer and a double against the Blue Jays on Sunday.

      Advice: Torkelson didn’t play Saturday after going hitless in his previous five games. Still, this makes four homers in 13 games for him after he went his first 37 games without one. The problem is that he has just six other hits in those 13 games, and his average has actually dropped a bit during the span. He’s at .218/.286/.358 for the season. Rotoworld Today, 12:27 pm
       
    • Walker has two-hit game in win Saturday
      Christian Walker went 2-for-4 with a double, a run scored and an RBI against the Marlins on Saturday.

      Advice: Walker tied the game at one in the first inning with a line drive double to right field that scored Corbin Carroll. Then he came around and scored on a Lourdes Gurriel double. Walker is hitting .262 with an .819 OPS and 33 RBI on the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:07 pm
       
    • Spencer Torkelson on bench Saturday amid slump
      Spencer Torkelson is not in the lineup for Saturday’s contest against the Blue Jays.

      Advice: It’s Torkelson’s first off day since April 28. The 24-year-old former top prospect has shown the occasional glimpses of big-time power potential, but he’s batting just .207/.279/.330 with three homers and 17 RBI in 209 plate appearances over 49 contests. He’s gone 0-for-16 at the dish over his last five games and will get some time off to reset mentally. It’ll be Mark Canha drawing a rare start at the hot corner in his absence.

    • Resting Saturday
      Torkelson isn't in the Tigers' lineup for Saturday's game against Toronto, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

      Advice: Torkelson will get a day to clear his head after going 0-for-16 across his last five contests. Mark Canha will cover first base for the Tigers on Saturday, moving Colt Keith into the DH spot while Zach McKinstry starts at second. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:59 am
       
    • Four hits in win
      Mountcastle went 4-for-5 with a double and two runs scored in Thursday's win over the White Sox.

      Advice: Mountcastle recorded hits in each of his first four at-bats, marking only the second time this month in which he's scored two runs in a contest. The first baseman saw his batting average jump 16 points with his fourth multi-hit performance this month, though he hasn't driven in a run since May 8. Mountcastle is also yet to draw a walk in May while striking out 17 times. Rotowire.com Friday, 7:31 am
