• First homer of June
    Arozarena went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday against Atlanta.

    Advice: Arozarena went yard in the ninth inning to tally his ninth homer of the season and his first in June. Despite the lack of power, he has managed to hit .263 with a .417 on-base percentage for the month -- both of which are significant improvements over his season-long line. Arozarena is still hitting just .175 for the campaign, though he has also chipped in seven steals. Rotowire.com Today, 6:50 am
  • Randy Arozarena homers in loss to Braves
    Randy Arozarena went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the Braves on Saturday.

    Advice: Arozarena was hitless until a 403-foot big fly in the ninth inning. It was his ninth of the season and just his 21st RBI all year. The 29-year-old also struck out once and is hitting just .175/.284/.325 on the year. While the overall numbers are bad, there are no glaring red flags to point to. He’s swinging and missing slightly more and is perhaps being a bit too passive this season, potentially leading to worse overall contact quality. There is not much fantasy managers can do but hold on. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:12 pm
  • Homers, drives in three in win
    Meneses went 1-for-3 with a home run and three RBI in a 4-0 win over the Marlins on Saturday.

On the season, Meneses is slashing .244/.305/.332 with three home runs and 36 RBI over 243 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:45 pm

  • Homers in loss
    Sosa went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 6-2 loss to the Orioles on Saturday.

    Advice: Sosa gave the Phillies an early 2-0 lead when he homered off Grayson Rodriguez in the second inning. Sosa hit .306 in May with three home runs, but he has gone just 8-for-37 with one long ball in June. According to Matt Gelb of The Athletic, Trea Turner's return from a hamstring injury is nearing, which means Sosa will likely return to a bench role in the coming days.
