  • Launches third homer
    Joe went 2-for-4 with a solo home run during Tuesday's 5-2 loss to Oakland.

    Advice: Joe tagged Alex Wood for a solo shot in the first inning, marking his third long ball in 100 plate appearances this season. He's on pace to exceed his career-high home run total of 11, which he achieved in 472 plate appearances last season. During his last five games, Joe is batting 6-for-19 (.316) with a pair of doubles and Tuesday's home run. Rotowire.com 4 minutes ago

  • Up to seven saves
    McArthur picked up the save in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Blue Jays, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning.

    Advice: McArthur improved to 7-for-8 in save chances this season while extending his scoreless-inning streak to 10.2. The 27-year-old right-hander lowered his ERA to 2.63 with a 1.17 WHIP and 15:2 K:BB across 12 appearances (13.2 innings) this year. Rotowire.com 8 minutes ago
     
  • Swats two homers
    Bleday went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a solo home run during Tuesday's 5-2 win over Pittsburgh.

    Advice: Bleday went yard twice for the first time in his career Tuesday, tagging Mitch Keller for a solo shot in the fifth and Josh Fleming for a two-run homer in the seventh for his second and third long balls of the campaign. The contest was Bleday's first multi-hit game since Apr. 14. However, he's racked up an extra-base hit in seven of his last nine contests with six walks and five strikeouts during that stretch.

  • Middling once again
    Keller (2-3) took the loss Tuesday, allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks over five innings against the A's. He struck out seven.

    Advice: Although Keller punched out seven batters for a second consecutive outing, he was tagged for a trio of runs, including a solo homer by JJ Bleday. After entering the 2024 season with relatively high expectations, Keller has fallen to a 5.18 ERA through 40.0 innings and has surrendered five or more hits in all seven starts. He's scheduled for a home start against the Angels on Monday. Rotowire.com 14 minutes ago
     
  • Hard-luck loss Tuesday
    Berrios (4-2) took the loss Tuesday against the Royals, allowing two runs on five hits and a walk over seven innings. He struck out three.

    Advice: Berrios was solid Tuesday, holding the Royals to two runs on a Michael Massey homer in the second inning, en route to a sixth quality start in seven outings this year. However, the 29-year-old Berrios was ultimately stuck with a second straight loss to Kansas City as the Blue Jays could only muster a lone run off Cole Ragans. Berrios lowered his ERA to an excellent 1.44 with a 1.01 WHIP and 31:13 K:BB through 43.2 innings this season. He'll look to get back in the win column in his next start, currently lined up for next week in Philadelphia. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago
     
  • Iffy against Pirates
    Wood didn't factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing two runs on four hits and four walks over four innings against Pittsburgh. He struck out four.

    Advice: Although Wood was charged with only two runs allowed, his start shouldn't spark much optimism for fantasy managers. He walked four batters for the second time this season and surrendered a home run to Connor Joe in the first frame to mark his fifth straight start allowing a long ball. While he's yielded four or more runs three times this season, he's held opponents to two or fewer in three starts as well, leaving his overall ERA at 6.32. He's lined up to make his next start Monday against the Rangers. Rotowire.com 21 minutes ago

  • Lights out for eighth save
    Miller picked up the save Tuesday against Oakland, striking out three during a perfect ninth inning.

    Advice: Miller capped off April with yet another dominant display, punching out all three batters he faced. He appeared in 11 games during the month, allowing four hits and three walks with 30 strikeouts over 12.1 scoreless innings. He's a perfect eight-for-eight on save chances in 2024, placing him sixth in all of baseball for most saves. Rotowire.com 26 minutes ago

  • Rough opening frame
    Sanchez did not factor into the decision Tuesday, allowing five runs on seven hits over four innings. He struck out three.

    Advice: The Rockies jumped on Sanchez quickly Tuesday, scoring five times in the opening inning, with three runs coming on an Elehuris Montero home run. However, Sanchez would settle in and hold the Rockies scoreless over his subsequent three innings as the Marlins' opener, allowing just one additional hit. It's been a shaky start to the season overall for the 25-year-old right-hander -- Sanchez's ERA is up to 8.36 with a 1.71 WHIP and 9:4 K:BB across 11 innings. Rotowire.com 29 minutes ago

  • Exits with knee injury
    Wilson was removed from Tuesday's game against the Padres with an apparent knee injury, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

    Advice: Wilson took a line drive off the inside of his right knee during the eighth inning of Tuesday's contest and was immediately removed from the game. The severity of his injury remains unclear, but the Reds should offer and update once they know more. Rotowire.com 31 minutes ago
