  • Season-high four RBI in win
    Kim went 1-for-5 with a home run and four RBI in Saturday's win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Kim went hitless in his first three at-bats before joining in on the party in the top of the seventh with a three-run homer, his fifth long ball of the season. The infielder would drive in another run in the ninth on a groundout, giving him a season-high four RBI in the contest. Kim has hit safely in three of his last four games, but has only five games this season in which he's registered multiple hits. Rotowire.com 23 minutes ago
     
  • Steals base in loss
    Neto went 1-for-3 with an RBI and a stolen base Saturday in a loss to Cleveland.

    Advice: Neto plated the only Angels run of the contest with a fifth-inning single. The shortstop followed with a stolen base, but he was left stranded in scoring position. Neto was batting .167 as recently as April 21, but he's turned a corner since, hitting .350 with two homers and six RBI over his past 11 contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:53 pm
     
  • Bobby Witt Jr. steals base in blowout loss
    Bobby Witt Jr. walked twice and also stole a base on Saturday in the Royals’ lopsided defeat at the hands of the Rangers.

    Advice: Witt is already up to 11 stolen bases on the season and continues to cement his status as one of the elite five-category impact contributors in the fantasy landscape. The 23-year-old superstar shortstop boasts a robust .313/.367/.530 triple-slash line with 29 runs scored, four homers, 19 RBI and 11 thefts in 147 plate appearances over 34 games.

  • Ha-Seong Kim launches three-run homer in victory
    Ha-Seong Kim launched a three-run homer in the seventh inning on Saturday night, helping to power the Padres to a lopsided victory over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Kim had been hitless in three at-bats entering the seventh inning, but he was able to salvage his night by crushing a 382-foot (97.2 mph EV) three-run blast off of Bryce Jarvis. He also drove in a run with a ground ball in the ninth inning. On the season, the 28-year-old infielder is now slashing .211/.315/.391 with five homers, 21 RBI and seven stolen bases through his first 36 games. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:07 pm
     
  • Pops second homer in three days
    Mateo went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Reds.

    Advice: While not known for his power, Mateo has run into a couple in recent days for his first two homers of the 2024 season. Saturday's start was the third straight for Mateo, as he has been playing regularly at second base since Jackson Holliday was demoted to Triple-A. Speed is Mateo's greatest asset for fantasy managers; he has five steals this season and cleared 30 stolen bases in just 116 games last year. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:53 pm
     
  • Swipes bag in Saturday's start
    Hamilton went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Twins.

    Advice: Getting the start at second base and batting eighth, Hamilton swiped his third bag in 15 games for the Red Sox. The 26-year-old infielder is slashing just .214/.283/.310 though, and he offers little else for fantasy purposes. With Vaughn Grissom having recovered from the hamstring strain that cost him the first month-plus of the season and Ceddanne Rafaela still entrenched at shortstop, Hamilton has no clear path to consistent playing time.

  • CJ Abrams collects two hits, steals base vs. Blue Jays
    CJ Abrams went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base against the Blue Jays on Saturday.



    Advice: Abrams knocked a base hit in the third and stole second to get into scoring position, but was stranded on the bases. Down by four runs with the bases loaded, he sent a fly ball to deep center field that fell just short of a grand slam. He settled for a sacrifice fly to bring home a run. Abrams added a base hit in the ninth, ending his day slashing .281/.348/.570 with seven homers, 23 runs scored, 19 RBI, and eight steals across 136 plate appearances.

  • Fielding grounders, throwing
    Manager Torey Lovullo said Saturday that Perdomo (knee) has been fielding live groundballs and has also resumed throwing, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    Advice: Perdomo still has yet to resume hitting, as the Diamondbacks are going to take a cautious approach with his rehab just three weeks removed from knee surgery. The 24-year-old infielder remains without a definite return timeline, but Lovullo noted he is encouraged by the progress Perdomo has made so far. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:59 pm

  • Bo Bichette ejected from Saturday’s ballgame
    Bo Bichette was ejected from Saturday’s ballgame against the Nationals after spiking his helmet in frustration to a questionable called-third strike.

    Advice: The slumping 26-year-old shortstop appeared to take exception to a pitch that grazed the outside corner against him, and he took out some frustration on his helmet. Home plate umpire Jonathan Parra didn’t take kindly to that though and gave him the heave-ho. He’ll catch the rest of Saturday’s game from the clubhouse. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:36 pm
