  • Roughed up in San Fran
    Blach (1-2) took the loss Saturday in San Francisco, allowing six runs on seven hits and one walk over three innings. He struck out three.

    Advice: The Giants tallied 18 hits and 14 runs in this one, with Blach and reliever Nick Mears (six runs in two-thirds of an inning) absorbing the big blows. Blach was given another start after holding the Rangers to one run over five innings his last time out, but he might be headed back to long relief after this effort. If he does get another turn, it would likely come next week at home versus the Phillies. Rotowire.com 3 minutes ago

  • Luis Matos drives in six runs against Rockies
    Luis Matos went 3-for-5 with a home run and six RBI to power the Giants to a 14-4 win over the Rockies on Saturday.

    Advice: Matos continued his RBI barrage on Saturday, blasting a three-run homer off Ty Blach in the first inning. He doubled in the third to drive in a run and added two more RBI in the eighth to make it six on the day and 11 over his last two games. The 22-year-old outfielder has gotten off to a hot start at the plate with the Giants, going 10-for-26 with two homers and 17 RBI. With Jung Hoo Lee (shoulder) out for the season, Matos should be a regular in the lineup and brings intriguing power and speed, hitting three homers with three steals across 31 games in Triple-A before his call-up.

  • Matt Chapman reaches five times against Rockies
    Matt Chapman went 4-for-4 with two doubles, four runs scored, one walk, and a stolen base against the Rockies on Saturday.

    Advice: Chapman has broken out at the plate of the last two games. After collecting three hits on Friday, he was a perfect 4-for-4 against the Rockies on Saturday. He started with a double in the first and scored on a home run by Luis Matos. Chapman led off the third with a base hit and scored again on a double by Matos. He added a single and a stolen base in the fifth, then reached third on a double and an error in the seventh before scoring once more. The 31-year-old third baseman is now hitting .236/.292/.388 with five homers, 29 runs scored, 20 RBI, and five steals across 192 plate appearances. Rotoworld 18 minutes ago

    Hunter Goodman went 2-for-4 with a double, a run scored, one RBI, and a stolen base against the Giants on Saturday.

    Advice: With Elias Díaz sidelined with a hand injury, Goodman made his first start at catcher against the Giants. He doubled to lead off the third inning and scored on a single by Ezequiel Tovar. Goodman later drove in a run with a base hit in the sixth and stole second for his first steal of the season. The 24-year-old is 4-for-25 with two homers and five RBI with the Rockies.

    Kyle Harrison allowed three runs with four strikeouts over five innings in a win over the Rockies on Saturday.

    Advice: Harrison worked through a pair of scoreless innings before the Rockies brought three runs in to score on three hits and a walk in the third inning. He worked two more scoreless frames, ending his day after five with four strikeouts. The 22-year-old left-hander will take a 3.60 ERA, 1.27 WHIP, and a 49/19 K/BB ratio across 55 innings into a start against the Mets in New York on Friday. Rotoworld 20 minutes ago
     
  • Ty Blach surrenders six runs in loss to Giants
    Ty Blach allowed six runs with three strikeouts across three innings in a loss against the Giants on Saturday.

    Advice: Blach served up a three-run homer to Luis Matos in the first inning. Two more runs would come across to score in the second on two doubles, a walk, and a sacrifice fly. Matos doubled in a run in the third to make it six runs on Blach, who ended his day after three frames. The 33-year-old left-hander holds a 5.14 ERA, 1.43 WHIP, and a 10/4 K/BB ratio across 21 innings. He’ll take on the Phillies in Colorado on Friday. Rotoworld 21 minutes ago

  • Throws bullpen session
    Phillips (hamstring) threw another bullpen session Saturday, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Advice: Saturday marks Phillips' second round of mound work since landing on the IL on May 5 with a strained right hamstring. He still has yet to face live hitters, but manager Dave Roberts said after Phillips' session that the right-hander is roughly a week away from rejoining Los Angeles' bullpen.

  • Throws another bullpen Saturday
    Miller (shoulder) threw a bullpen session Saturday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Miller is now expected to throw a three-inning simulated game within the next few days. Assuming all goes well, he will then embark on a minor-league rehab assignment. The Dodgers haven't said how long they plan on keeping Miller in the minors, but considering he has been on the shelf since April 13, he will likely need to make multiple starts in order to get back to a starter's workload.

  • Bobby Miller (shoulder) throws bullpen session
    Bobby Miller (shoulder) threw a bullpen session at Dodger Stadium on Saturday afternoon without any issues.

    Advice: Up next for Miller will be a three-inning simulated game, and if all goes well with that session he’ll finally progress to a minor league rehab assignment. Anticipate that he’ll need at least two starts in the minors before he’s an option to rejoin the Dodgers’ rotation — but he is taking tangible steps in that direction. Rotoworld 55 minutes ago
