    • Tallies second homer
      Montero went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run Tuesday against the Marlins.

      Advice: Montero went yard in his first plate appearance of the game to tally his second homer of the season. After a slow start to the campaign from a results perspective, he has gone 8-for-31 with seven RBI and three runs scored across his last eight contests. Montero's production should continue to tick up as he has maintained a vastly improved 16.8 percent strikeout rate. Rotowire.com 28 minutes ago
       
    • Expected back by mid-May
      Poche (back) is not expected to spend much more than a minimum stint on the injured list, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Poche received an injection in his back shortly after landing on the injured list Friday. He's rested since, but will presumably resume throwing in short order. If Poche is able to return before Pete Fairbanks (arm), he could factor into the saves picture in Tampa Bay. Rotowire.com 39 minutes ago
       
    • Headed to Durham for rehab
      Baz (elbow) will make a rehab start with Triple-A Durham either Saturday or Sunday, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Baz has thrown in two extended spring training games, the most recent of which came Monday. The next step in his recovery will come at Triple-A Durham to build up his pitch count. There is no specific timeline for Baz to return, but it's possible that he'll be back in late May. Rotowire.com 46 minutes ago
       
    • Lifts game-tying homer
      Florial went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run and a walk in Tuesday's 10-9 extra-inning loss to the Astros.

      Advice: Florial's sixth-inning blast tied the game at 8-8. It was his third homer of the year and his first to come against a team other than the Yankees. Florial's playing time has been slipping recently, mostly as a product of David Fry working his way into the lineup more frequently. The right-handed Fry, a natural catcher, will occasionally serve as the designated hitter or push one of the Guardians' regulars into that spot at Florial's expense. For the year, Florial is batting just .229 with an .827 OPS through 56 plate appearances. Rotowire.com 52 minutes ago
       
    • Swats first homer of season
      Massey went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Massey has hit safely in four straight games, going 4-for-14 with three RBI and three runs scored. The 26-year-old is seeing a majority of the playing time at second base since he returned from a back injury that shelved him for a month. Massey is batting .212 with one homer, five RBI, five runs scored and no stolen bases through 10 contests. Barring a deep slump, Massey should continue to play more frequently than Adam Frazier at second base, though Frazier has also gotten looks in the corner outfield spots and at designated hitter.

    • Smacks first homer
      Singleton went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run, a walk and two runs scored Tuesday against the Guardians.

      Advice: Singleton was perhaps surprisingly in the lineup and starting at first base despite the promotion of Joey Loperfido. Singleton began his day with a walk before coming around to score in the third inning, and he followed that up one plate appearance later with his first home run of the campaign. He has the chance to see additional at-bats at first base with Jose Abreu demoted to the minors and Loperfido picking up at least some starts in the outfield. However, for Singleton to maintain regular plate appearances, he'll need to improve upon his .239/.327/.348 line. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:41 pm
       
    • Goes deep in nightcap
      Donovan went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in an 11-6 loss to the Tigers in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader.

      Advice: Donovan sparked the Cardinals' fifth-inning rally with his homer. The utility man had hit safely in five straight games before going 0-for-4 in the matinee contest. Donovan is slashing .228/.311/.377 with three homers, 16 RBI, 13 runs scored and no stolen bases over 132 plate appearances this season. He remains the Cardinals' preferred leadoff batter and left fielder despite his mediocre hitting so far. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:35 pm
       
    • Johan Rojas delivers ninth-inning homer in victory
      Johan Rojas hit a two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth to lead the Phillies past the Angels 7-5 on Tuesday.

      Advice: Nick Castellanos had already tied the game with a solo shot before Rojas provided the difference maker. It was Rojas’s first homer in 91 plate appearances this season. Fortunately, he’s continued to play his usual excellent defense, and Whit Merrifield hasn’t been able to force his way into the lineup. Rojas isn’t a mixed-league guy right now, but with his ability to steal bases, he doesn’t need to be all that much better offensively to get to that kind of level.

    • Jeff Hoffman notches second save for Phillies
      Jeff Hoffman notched his second save with a perfect ninth Tuesday against the Angels.

      Advice: We’re still holding out hope that Orion Kerkering will get some of these chances, but Hoffman’s velocity is back up after looking like it might be an issue this spring and he’ll likely remain an excellent reliever. He’s probably a fringe option in 10- and 12-team leagues, but he should be useful in deeper formats. Rotoworld Yesterday, 11:34 pm
