  • Orlando Arcia homers in win over Boston
    Orlando Arcia went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a win over the Red Sox on Tuesday.

    Advice: The home run was Arcia’s sixth of the year, and he’s now up to 21 RBI as well. Both of Arcia’s hits were over 100 mph, but he’s slashing just .235/.257/.385 on the year. Still, he plays pretty much every day for a lineup that still has the potential to put up runs in bunches. That makes him worthy of a roster spot in most fantasy leagues.

  • Anthony Volpe extends on-base streak to 30 games
    Anthony Volpe singled on Tuesday in the Yankees’ win over the Twins, extending his on-base streak to 30 consecutive games.

    Advice: Volpe extended his on-base streak, which is tied with teammate Aaron Judge for the longest in baseball this season, by slicing a third-inning single into shallow right field before racing around the bases to score on Judge’s two-run double later in the frame.

  • Bobby Witt Jr homers twice in loss
    Bobby Witt Jr. went 3-for-5 with two home runs and four RBI in a loss to the Guardians on Tuesday.

    Advice: Witt smacked both long balls off of Triston McKenzie, hitting a 434-foot shot in the third inning and then a massive 454-foot bomb in the fourth inning. He now has 11 home runs on the year to go along with 46 RBI and a .319/.371/.565 slash line. With the injury to Ronald Acuna Jr. and the struggles of Julio Rodriguez, Bobby Witt Jr. is setting up to be the number-one pick in fantasy leagues next year. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:27 pm
     
  • Tyler Freeman homers in win over Royals
    Tyler Freeman went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in a win over the Royals on Tuesday.

    Advice: Freeman greeted Seth Lugo in the sixth inning with a 402-foot shot that left the bat at 102.3 mph. It was his fifth home run on the season, and now has 24 RBI to go along with a .219/.308/.358 slash line. Freeman has been trending up in recent weeks but with the renewed health fo Steven Kwan and Andres Gimenez, Freeman has moved back down to the bottom third of the lineup, which will limit his opportunities for runs and RBI.

  • Returning to action Tuesday
    Estrada (thumb) is starting at second base and batting second Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Estrada sat out the previous three games with a jammed thumb but is ready to take the field Tuesday in Arizona. The 28-year-old finished May on a modest four-game hit streak and went 7-for-17 with a double, an RBI and a run during that span. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:42 pm

  • Sitting on bench Tuesday
    Baez is not in the Tigers' lineup Tuesday versus the Rangers.

    Advice: In the last 10 games, Baez is hitting just .108 (4-for-37). Amidst the slump, the shortstop will take a seat with Zach McKinstry starting in his place and batting sixth Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:18 pm
     
  • Idle against lefty
    Turang is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.

    Advice: Turang will dodge a matchup with southpaw Cristopher Sanchez on Tuesday, joining fellow lefties Jake Bauers and Sal Frelick on the bench. Andruw Monasterio will play second and bat ninth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:19 pm
