  • Pete Alonso homers, doubles in Mets win
    Pete Alonso went 2-for-5 with a homer, double, and three RBI in the Mets’ win over the Cardinals on Tuesday night.

    Advice: Alonso broke out in a big way against Miles Mikolas and the Cardinals after a 2-for-44 lull. His two-run double gave the Mets the lead and his eighth inning homer added a valuable insurance run as Adam Ottavino ran into trouble in the ninth. All three of the balls Alonso put in play were hit over 105 MPH exit velocity. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:21 pm
     
  • Alec Burleson homers, collects three hits in loss
    Alec Burleson went 3-for-5 with a homer and three RBI in Tuesday’s loss to the Mets.

    Advice: The homer was Burleson’s second of the year, with both coming against the Mets. This was his 10th straight start against a right-handed pitcher. He hasn’t started against a lefty since April 6th and is firmly in a platoon. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:19 pm

  • Isaac Paredes posts three hits, homers in win
    Isaac Paredes went 3-for-4 with a solo homer on Tuesday, leading the Rays to a 5-1 victory over the White Sox.

    Advice: Paredes ripped an absolute moonshot to left field in the sixth inning off Chicago reliever Brad Keller for his eighth round-tripper of the season. It was the first time he’s gone deep since April 28. The 25-year-old pull-happy slugger has been a four-category fantasy monster this season with a .299 batting average through 34 contests.

  • Battling illness
    Canha is out of the lineup Tuesday against Cleveland with an upper respiratory illness, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

    Advice: Canha will get the day off to rest and recover from the illness, leaving DH work to Jake Rogers while Carson Kelly fills in behind the plate. Canha's five homers trail only Riley Greene on the Tigers. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:20 pm

  • Getting first day off
    Alonso is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    Advice: He'll take a seat for the first time all season after recently falling into a 1-for-28 drought at the plate that has brought his slash line down to .206/.295/.420. DJ Stewart will draw the start at first base Monday, but Alonso should be back in the lineup Tuesday. Rotowire.com Monday, 1:53 pm
