  • Slugs homer in easy win
    Garcia went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional RBI during Sunday's 6-0 win over the Marlins.

    Advice: Garcia snapped a five-game hitless streak Sunday, delivering two hits and pushing his RBI total to 40 this season. He also notched his 13th long ball of 2024, taking Trevor Rogers yard in the sixth frame. Garcia ranks top 15 in homers and RBI this year and is slashing .231/.285/.462 through 212 plate appearances.

  • Collects three hits in loss
    Bellinger went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Reds.

    Advice: Bellinger played well but the rest of Chicago's lineup could only muster five hits overall, which limited his ability to collect counting stats. The 28-year-old is batting .318 over his last 10 games with a home run, four runs scored and five RBI. If Bellinger gets more support from his teammates, he could really take off across the board, though he should have plenty of fantasy value either way given his ability to hit the ball over the fall and swipe a base on occasion.

  • Adolis García homers in win over Marlins
    Adolis García went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in a win over the Marlins on Sunday.

    Advice: García took a sixth-inning offering from Trevor Rogers and hit it 395 feet at 108.2 mph for his 13th home run on the season. He also added an RBI earlier in the game and now has 40 RBI on the year, which has helped prop up a disappointing .231/.285/.462 slash line. As a free-swinger, García has always seemed at risk for batting average regression, and it’s possible he won’t match last year’s .245 batting average, but the power remains a true asset.

  • Abrams scratched again Sunday against Guardians
    CJ Abrams was scratched from Sunday’s lineup against the Guardians due to illness.

    Advice: Never mind. Abrams was scratched Saturday due to illness, and the infielder was back in the lineup Sunday originally only to have the same thing occur. The infielder should be considered day-to-day. Ildemaro Vargas is starting at shortstop in his place. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:54 am

  • Scratched again Sunday
    Abrams (shoulder) was scratched from Sunday's lineup against the Guardians, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

    Advice: Abrams was penciled in to start at shortstop and bat leadoff but has instead been scratched for the second straight game due to a jammed left shoulder. The 23-year-old should be considered day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener versus the Mets. Ildemaro Vargas will start at shortstop Sunday in place of Abrams. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:49 am

  • CJ Abrams (illness) back in lineup Sunday vs. CLE
    CJ Abrams (illness) is back in the starting lineup and hitting leadoff against the Guardians on Sunday.

    Advice: Abrams was a late scratch from the lineup for Saturday’s tilt with Cleveland because of illness, but it was deemed precautionary, and being inserted into the lineup a day later suggests it was just that. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:07 am

  • Rejoining lineup Sunday
    Abrams (shoulder) is starting at shortstop and batting leadoff Sunday against the Guardians, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    Advice: The 23-year-old jammed his shoulder on a diving play Friday and was scratched from Saturday's lineup, but he's back in the starting nine for Sunday's series finale in Cleveland. Abrams is in a bit of a funk at the plate, as he's gone 0-for-14 with eight strikeouts over his past three contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:55 am
