  • Brett Wisely hits walk-off homer against Dodgers
    Brett Wisely hit a walk-off two-run homer against the Dodgers on Friday.

    Advice: Baseball can be funny. Wisely hit a ball that just went foul that the Giants challenged went fair, and instead of what might have been a double, he ends up with a walk-off blast off Blake Treinen. Wisely also singled in this contest, and he’s been a strong performer for the Giants as seen in a slash of .304/.333/.461 with three homers and 14 RBI. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:11 pm

  • Slugs 11th homer
    Merrill went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Friday's 9-2 win over the Red Sox.

    Advice: The rookie capped San Diego's improbable nine-run fifth inning by sending a Greg Weissert fastball over the fence in straightaway center field. Merrill's power has emerged as the weather has heated up -- while his 11 homers through 82 games is already good for a 21-year-old in his first MLB campaign, eight of those long balls have come in his last 15 contests, a stretch in which he's batting .309 (17-for-55) with 11 runs and 16 RBI.

  • Hit streak at 12 games
    Kiner-Falefa went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Friday's 16-5 loss to the Yankees.

    Advice: The infielder took Michael Tonkin deep in the sixth inning, giving Kiner-Falefa his seventh long ball of the season, one off his career high. He's also hit safely in 12 straight games, batting a blistering .395 (17-for-43) over that stretch with three homers, six RBI and 10 runs. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:48 pm

  • Goes deep again
    Rengifo went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and two runs scored in Friday's win over Detroit.

    Advice: Rengifo got things started with a two-run shot in the first inning. It was his sixth of the year and the first time this season he's gone deep in two straight games. He's produced four multi-hit performances in his last five games, boosting his season OPS from .770 to .808 in the process. Rengifo is slashing .315/.361/.447 with 18 extra-base hits, 20 steals and 34 runs scored this season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:40 pm

  • Brenton Doyle collects seventh homer, 19th steal
    Brenton Doyle went 2-for-4 with a homer and a steal versus the White Sox on Friday.

    Advice: Doyle came into the night batting .235/.258/.284 in June and was one more bad game away seeing his OPS drop below .700, so this helps a bunch. He still shouldn’t be batting at the top of the Rockies order right now, but for as long it continues, he’ll be worth playing in mixed leagues, especially when the Rockies are at home.

  • Slugs homer No. 20
    Soto went 2-for-4 with a walk, a three-run home run and three total runs scored in Friday's 16-5 rout of the Blue Jays.

    Advice: The 25-year-old outfielder took Yusei Kikuchi deep in the sixth inning, giving the Yankees their first lead of the game before the floodgates opened late. The long ball was Soto's 20th of the season, and he has 60 RBI through 81 games -- only Aaron Judge (79) and Jose Ramirez (73) have driven in more runs in the American League so far this year.

  • Luis Rengifo swats two-run homer vs. Tigers
    Luis Rengifo hit a two-run homer in the Angels’ win Friday over the Tigers.

    Advice: Rengifo gave the Angels a 2-0 lead in the first inning with a two-run swat off Kenta Maeda. Those would be the only runs the Angels would pick up off Maeda, but the Halos were able to get to the Detroit bullpen to pull off the win. Rengifo has been a real bright spot for Los Angeles in 2024 with a .315 average, six homers and 24 RBI through the first 81 games of the year. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:06 pm

  • Cracks homer, swipes bag in loss
    Doyle went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and a steal in Friday's 5-3 loss to the White Sox.

    Advice: The 26-year-old gave Colorado a 2-1 lead in the sixth inning when a launched a 426-foot, two-run homer off Drew Thorpe. Doyle later bagged his team-leading 19th stolen base, marking his fifth straight success since last being caught June 5. The Rockies' leadoff hitter hopes this performance spurs a hot streak, as he entered hitting .235 (19-for-81) with just two extra-base hits -- one homer and one double -- across 22 games in June.

  • Kyle Isbel goes 2-for-4, homers against Guardians
    Kyle Isbel went 2-for-3 with a homer and a walk against the Guardians on Friday.

    Advice: After a very quiet April and May, Isbel has stepped it up with a .308/.339/.558 line this month. He’s not doing much running (though he did try and fail on a steal attempt tonight), so there still isn’t currently much reason to consider him in mixed leagues, Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:33 pm
