    • Kyle Harrison walks five in no-decision
      Kyle Harrison allowed three runs in five innings Sunday in a no-decision versus the Reds.

      Advice: All of the runs came in the first, which featured a hit by pitch, two walks and then a near-grand slam from Jeimer Candelario that instead resulted in a bases-clearing double. Harrison went on to allow just one hard-hit ball over the subsequent four innings, but he did walk three more batters. He’s walked 12 in his three starts this month, but he has a 2.12 ERA in the process. In April, he walked a total of five batters in six starts, though he had a 4.09 ERA then. Now he just needs to put it all together. Rotoworld Today, 4:56 pm
       
    • Adbert Alzolay gets extra inning save on Sunday
      Adbert Alzolay allowed one run in one inning while securing his fourth save in a 5-4 extra-innings win over the Pirates on Sunday.

      Advice: Hector Neris threw the ninth inning in a tie game and didn’t allow a run despite allowing two hits and walking one. Alzolay followed in the 10th and allowed a home run to Connor Joe that scored two, including the extra runner. It wasn’t a pretty effort and Alzolay still appears to be behind Neris and Mark Leiter Jr. in the closer hierarchy, but if Neris continues to look shaky than Alzolay has a chance to pitch himself back into the job.

    • Eloy Jiménez goes 0-for-4 as slump continues
      Eloy Jiménez went 0-for-4 on Sunday, leaving him 7-for-48 over this last 12 games.

      Advice: Jiménez seemed to find his stroke in late April, going 13-for-37 with three homers in a nine-game span. Since then, though, he’s batting just .146. It’s not because he’s striking out much; he’s fanned a total of eight times in the 12 games. His exit velocity numbers remain solid, but he’s going to need to be considerably better than this to amass fantasy value with such an awful lineup around him. Rotoworld Today, 2:12 pm
       
    • Aaron Judge homers in win over Rays
      Aaron Judge went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in a 10-6 win over the Rays on Sunday.

      Advice: Judge’s homer was a 374-foot shot that left the bat at 106.7 mph. In fact, Judge had three of the five hardest-hit balls of the day, including a 109.9 mph single in the first inning and a 106.7 mph flyout in the eighth inning that had a .770 xBA and would have been a home run in 10 MLB stadiums. The Yankees slugger is not off to a great start to the season, but he went 7-for-21 this week with three home runs and seven RBI, so perhaps he’s starting to feel like himself a bit.

    • Yandy Díaz homers in second straight game
      Yandy Díaz went 1-for-4 with a walk, a home run, and two runs scored in a loss to the Yankees.

      Advice: Díaz had a strong series against the Yankees, going 6-for-11 with two home runs across the three games. He’s starting to heat up a bit at the plate and has raised his slash line to .250/.313/.356 with three home runs and 19 RBI. The Rays lineup should trend up in the coming months, and Díaz could be starting to heat up as the summer approaches. Now might be the time to try and see if you can acquire him in a trade.

    • Brandon Nimmo (ribs) hopes to return on Monday
      Brandon Nimmo (intercostal) expects to return to the Mets’ lineup on Monday.

      Advice: The 31-year-old outfielder was pulled from Saturday’s game due to right intercostal irritation. He tried to talk manager Carlos Mendoza into letting him play on Sunday, but was unable to convince him. It does not sound like he’ll require a trip to the injured list though and should return to the Mets’ lineup for Monday’s series opener against the Phillies. Rotoworld Today, 1:29 pm
       
    • Unsure about return timeline
      Trout said Thursday that he doesn't yet have a timeline to return from the surgery he underwent on his left knee, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports. The slugger also stated that he was given the option to postpone surgery until after the season and play exclusively as a designated hitter, but he opted to get the procedure done immediately.

      Advice: Trout underwent surgery to repair the meniscus in his left knee May 3. The Angels have stated that they expect the three-time AL MVP to return before the end of the season, but it remains unclear exactly how much time he's expected to miss. Though Trout could have played through the injury and held off on surgery in order to serve as the Angels' DH, he may not have been able to do so at his usual level of effectiveness, as he indicated that such a route would have required a high level of injury management and substantial pain.

      Advice: Nimmo left after the fourth inning of Saturday's 4-1 loss due to right intercostal irritation. DJ Stewart will start in left field Sunday and bat in the leadoff spot against Atlanta right-hander Bryce Elder. Rotowire.com Today, 12:18 pm
