  • Launches ninth homer
    Conforto went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's win over the Cubs.

    Advice: Conforto launched a two-out, two-run homer in the bottom of the second to put the Giants up 2-1 and was directly followed by another solo shot off the bat of David Villar. The outfielder has now posted at least one RBI in three consecutive games and in four of his last five overall. However, Conforto still has just one multi-hit effort this month, during which he's now batting .125 with two homers, nine RBI and four runs scored. Rotowire.com Thursday, 6:28 am

    Michael Conforto went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer against the Cubs on Wednesday.

    Advice: With a runner on base in the second inning, Conforto took Hayden Wesneski deep to right center field for a two-run shot to put the Giants on the board. It was Conforto’s ninth homer of the season and only his second in June. The 31-year-old outfielder is slashing .232/.286/.415 with 23 runs scored and 29 RBI across 224 plate appearances.

  • Taking seat Wednesday
    Jeffers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: The 27-year-old and Christian Vazquez have alternated starts over Minnesota's past 21 games, and that trend will continue after Jeffers went 1-for-3 with a three-run homer Tuesday. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 3:35 pm
     
  • Taking seat Wednesday
    Biggio is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Biggio has typically only sat against left-handed starting pitchers since joining the Dodgers earlier this month, but he'll hit the bench Wednesday while right-hander Erick Fedde takes the hill for the White Sox. Enrique Hernandez steps in for Biggio at third base. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 3:27 pm

  • Sitting during nightcap
    Carpenter isn't in the Cardinals' lineup for the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against Atlanta.

    Advice: Carpenter went 1-for-1 with a single and a sacrifice fly during a loss in Game 1, and the Cardinals will give him a breather to conclude Wednesday's activities. Willson Contreras will instead serve as St. Louis' DH while Pedro Pages starts behind the plate. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 3:20 pm
     
  • Bryan Reynolds extends hitting streak to 23 games
    Bryan Reynolds extended his hitting streak to 23 consecutive games on Wednesday in the Pirates’ victory over the Reds.

    Advice: Reynolds officially owns the longest hit streak of the 2024 campaign after a first-inning single on Wednesday afternoon against Reds starter Graham Ashcraft. It was his lone hit in five at-bats, but the fact that he got it out of the way right out of the gate took all of the drama out of this one. The 29-year-old outfielder is in the midst of a stellar stretch at the dish, batting .323 (40-for-124) with seven homers and one steal over his last 30 games. Rotoworld Wednesday, 1:43 pm

    Smith is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the White Sox.

    Advice: Smith started each of the previous three games at catcher but will begin Wednesday's contest on the bench. Austin Barnes will step in behind the plate Wednesday. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 1:38 pm
     
  • LaMonte Wade Jr. (hamstring) hitless in rehab game
    LaMonte Wade Jr. went 0-for-3 in his second appearance for Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday.

    Advice: Wade, coming back from a hamstring strain, is expected to play for the River Cats again today before the Giants decided whether to activate him from the injured list. Rotoworld Wednesday, 8:02 am
     
  • Four homers in six games
    Reynolds went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and two runs scored Tuesday against the Reds.

    Advice: Reynolds extended his hitting streak to 22 games, but his power has been particularly notable of late. Across his last six starts, he has gone deep four times to bring his total on the season to 13. Across the entirety of his hitting streak, Reynolds has hit .360 with 16 RBI and 15 runs.
