    Marte went 2-for-5 with one RBI, a run scored and a stolen base in Thursday's victory over the Dodgers.

    Advice: Marte singled home Corbin Carroll in the top of the fifth to extend Arizona's lead to two runs before also going on to swipe his fourth bag of the season and first since June 11 against the Angels. The second baseman tallied two knocks on the night and has now posted multiple hits in four of his last seven contests. Marte has also hit safely in three straight and in six of his last seven.

  • Homers in Thursday's win
    Ramos went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 4-2 win over Atlanta.

    Advice: Ramos had a quiet stretch in the later part of June, but he's now bounced back with four multi-hit efforts over his last five games. In that span, he's hit two homers and two doubles while driving in five runs. The outfielder is at a .298/.373/.530 slash line with 12 long balls, 40 RBI, 24 runs scored and two stolen bases over 225 plate appearances this season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:09 pm
     
  • Ramos blasts 12th home run in win over Braves
    Heliot Ramos went 2-for-4 with a two run home run against the Braves on Thursday.

It’s Ramos’ second home run in his last three games and fourth multi-hit game in his last five games. He’s 9-for-20 (.450) with two home runs and five RBI in the last five games. Ramos is hitting .298 with a .903 OPS and 40 RBI on the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:03 pm
     
  • Nearing throwing program
    Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Thursday that Yamamoto (shoulder) has been working with a plyo ball and could resume throwing soon, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Advice: Yamamoto has made progress in his rehab and was described as pain-free Wednesday. Assuming that remains the case, he's expected to start playing catch again before the All-Star break, likely meaning he won't return before August. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:34 pm
     
  • Fraley plates three as Reds defeat Yankees
    Jake Fraley drove in three runs while going 2-for-4 with a triple Thursday against the Yankees.

    Advice: All three runs were driven in on the triple, and it extended the Cincinnati lead to 8-2 in the seventh inning. The 29-year-old hasn’t shown much power in 2024 with just a .356 slugging mark, but his .278 average and .333 on-base percentage are nothing to sneeze at. Expect more pop from Fraley in the second half of the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:11 pm
     
  • Steven Kwan homers, reaches four times in win
    Steven Kwan went 3-for-4 with a homer in an 8-4 win over the White Sox on Thursday.

    Advice: Kwan hit a solo homer off Jared Shuster in the third inning to give Cleveland a 2-1 lead. That’s the eighth homer of the season for the 26-year-old, who is enjoying a sensational 2024 season to put it mildly. On top of the homer and two more hits, he also walked, and the slash is now a robust .367/.424/.539. It’s very likely this isn’t sustainable — at least to this level — but Kwan has been a difference maker in the first half of 2024 for fantasy managers and the Guardians. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:59 pm
