• Cranks three-run homer
    Riley went 1-for-2 with a three-run home run and two walks in Saturday's 9-2 victory against the Rays.

    Advice: Riley broke the game open in the seventh frame with his three-run shot to center field that gave Atlanta an 8-1 lead. It was the second straight contest with a long ball for the third baseman following a 23-game homerless stretch (and a 45-game span during which he went deep only once). Riley may finally be getting his power on track, but with just five long balls through 233 plate appearances, he'll be hard-pressed to reach 30 homers for the fourth straight season.

  • Strong showing in win
    Rojas went 2-for-3 with a home run, two walks, three RBI and three runs scored in Saturday's 7-5 win over the Rangers.

    Advice: Rojas went 2-for-27 (.074) over his previous 10 games before breaking out of the slump in a big way. He hit a solo shot in the seventh inning and a two-run single in the eighth, providing the Mariners with enough of a cushion to survive the Rangers' late comeback. The homer was Rojas' first since April 28 and his fourth of the season to go with 15 RBI, 26 runs scored, six stolen bases and a .263/.336/.395 slash line over 61 contests. He continues to play in a strong-side platoon role at third base. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:57 pm

  • Goes deep in win
    Vierling went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 13-5 win over the Astros.

    Advice: Vierling has homered twice over his last four contests, though both were solo shots that represent his only RBI since May 29. The outfielder is batting a modest .196 (10-for-51) over 12 contests in June, though he's still often hitting in the top third of the Tigers' lineup. Vierling is at a .266/.305/.468 slash line with nine homers, 30 RBI, 30 runs scored, nine doubles, four triples and no stolen bases through 63 games this year. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:29 pm
     
  • Raps out four hits
    Keith went 4-for-6 with a solo home run and a double in Saturday's 13-5 win over the Astros.

    Advice: Keith tacked on the final run of the game with a homer in the ninth inning. The infielder had struggled early in June, going 4-for-30 over his previous 10 games, though he's racked up seven hits across his last three contests. He's rarely been a source of power in 2024 -- Keith has just three homers, seven doubles and a .315 slugging percentage while batting .235 over 61 games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:23 pm
     
  • Delivers big blast in victory
    Ortiz went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run Saturday in a 3-1 win against Cincinnati.

    Advice: All of Milwaukee's runs in the contest came on Ortiz's fifth-inning homer off Reds starter Andrew Abbott. The long ball was Ortiz's first since May 17 -- a span of 24 games. Power isn't a big part of Ortiz's profile, but he's proven plenty capable with the bat in his first full season in the majors, slashing .281/.381/.472 with six home runs, 27 RBI, 26 runs, four stolen bases and a 28:31 BB:K through 211 plate appearances.

  • Joey Ortiz homers in win over Reds
    Joey Ortiz went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in a win over the Reds on Saturday.

    Advice: Ortiz has now started two straight games since battling a hamstring injury and looks to be back in his everyday role in Milwaukee. Despite being the least-heralded player in this offseason’s Corbin Burnes trade, Ortiz is proving to be quite an asset for the Brewers with six home runs and 27 RBI to go along with a .281/.381/.472 slash line in 61 games.

  • Jeimer Candelario has two hits, RBI in loss
    Jeimer Candelario went 2-for-4 with an RBI in a loss to the Brewers on Saturday.

    Advice: It’s been quite a month for Candelario, who is now 20-for-56 (.357) with six home runs and 14 RBI in 13 games in June. The 30-year-old will remain a fixture in the Reds’ lineup, even when Noelvi Marte returns, and is looking to continue the progress he showed last year with the Nationals and Cubs. He shouldn’t be on waiver wires anymore. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:34 pm
  • Austin Riley homers against in win
    Austin Riley went 1-for-2 with a home run and two walks in a win over the Rays on Saturday.

    Advice: That’s now homers in back-to-back games for Riley, who might be starting to wake up a bit. There wasn’t much under the hood that looked “off” with Riley this year, but he was being pitched differently and not being given much he could turn on, which had hurt his pull power. Perhaps it took him a while to adjust his approach to combat that, or perhaps it’s just two good games. Only time will tell, but it seems smart to bet on Riley. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:17 pm
     
  • Josh Rojas homers, reaches four times in victory
    Josh Rojas went 2-for-3 with a homer and three RBI in a win over the Rangers for the Mariners on Saturday.

    Advice: On top of that damage, Rojas also drew two walks. The infielder has been scuffling as of late after a red-hot start to the season, but this was a big day from the 29-year-old. His homer was a solo shot to give Seattle a 5-1 lead, and he singled in two runs in the eighth. Rojas is hitting .263/.336/.395 thus far with four homers and 15 RBI. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:05 pm
