  • Belts big three-run blast
    Contreras went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run Saturday in a 4-2 victory versus Houston.

    Advice: Contreras provided the biggest hit of the game with a three-run, fourth-inning homer that broke a 1-1 tie and sent Justin Verlander to the showers. The long ball was the backstop's second in his past three games and extended his current on-base streak to 25 contests. During that stretch, Contreras is batting .347 with three homers, 17 RBI, 22 runs, two stolen bases and a 14:16 BB:K. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:46 pm
     
  • William Contreras hits three-run blast vs. Astros
    William Contreras connected on a three-run homer to help the Brewers to a 4-2 win over the Astros on Saturday.

    Advice: Contreras absolutely shellacked a Justin Verlander offering to center — travelling an estimated 428 feet — to give the Brew Crew a 4-1 lead. The 26-year-old backstop has been sensational in 2024 with seven homers, 37 RBI and an OPS of .990. That’s a star level of offense even before you consider that he’s doing it as a catcher.

  • Perez drives in two on Saturday
    Salvador Perez went 1-for-4 with two RBI against the Athletics on Saturday.



    Advice: Perez had a two-run single in the first inning that opened the scoring. The 34-year-old backstop has been great this year as he’s hitting .333 with a .949 OPS. His walk percentage is nearly double what it usually is at 7.8 percent and his strikeout percentage of 15 percent would be his lowest since 2015. Still, we can’t expect Perez to keep up this average as his .368 BABIP is 77 points higher than his career .291 BABIP.

  • Not starting Saturday
    Rogers isn't in the Tigers' lineup for Saturday's game against Arizona.

    Advice: Rogers has gone 0-for-9 and struck out five times across his past three games, so the Tigers will turn to Carson Kelly on Saturday in hopes of getting more offensive output from their catcher. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:21 pm
