  • Goes seven innings strong
    Singer (5-5) picked up the win Sunday against Colorado, allowing one run on six hits and two walks across seven innings. He struck out seven.

    Advice: Singer picked up his first win since May 19 and was able to minimize the impacts of Coors Field, allowing no extra-base hits in seven innings of work. Although Singer's efforts haven't resulted in wins, he's allowed less than three earned runs in seven of his last nine starts and has logged a quality start in three of his last five outings. Through 101.1 innings, Singer owns a 2.93 ERA and a 1.17 WHIP. He's in line for one more start before the All-Star break, which is scheduled to come during a weekend series in Boston.

  • Corbin Carroll hits first homer in two months
    Corbin Carroll took the Padres’ Dylan Cease deep Sunday for his first homer since May 7.

    Advice: Carroll hit the ball 397 feet, his second-farthest shot this year. It’s the first time since that May 7 homer that he’d hit one over 370 feet. Carroll has just one 400-foot blast this season, compared to 21 last year. We still wouldn’t say there’s a whole lot to be encouraged about here. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:47 pm
     
  • Tallies two hits, swipes base
    Keith went 2-for-4 with a walk and an RBI in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Reds. He also stole a base.

    Advice: Keith extended his hitting streak to five games, and he's gone 9-for-21 during the stretch with three home runs and a stolen base. The 22-year-old is starting to settle in at the MLB level offensively, plus he's running a bit more than anticipated, as he never stole more than four bases in a season during his time in the minors. Keith is still known more for his power than his speed, but any contributions in the steals category is a welcome bonus. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:58 pm

  • Remains in rotation
    Baz is scheduled to start Thursday's game against the Yankees at Tropicana Field.

    Advice: Baz will make a second straight turn through the Tampa Bay rotation as he continues to fill the spot that belonged to Aaron Civale, who was traded to the Brewers last week. After being called up from Triple-A Durham on Friday to make his first start for the Rays since July 10, 2022, Baz struck out six while allowing three runs on seven hits and one walk over six innings in a loss to the Rangers. Though he maintains a hold on a rotation spot for now, Baz could still be at some risk of losing out on a starting role once Jeffrey Springs (elbow) eventually returns from the 60-day injured list.

  • Brady Singer goes seven for first win since May
    Brady Singer limited the Rockies to one run over seven innings and struck out seven in a victory Sunday.

    Advice: Singer has allowed exactly one run in four straight outings, taking his ERA back down to 2.93. An easy stretch of the schedule has helped, though he did have the nice outing today at Coors Field. The victory is his first since May 18, as he evened his record at 5-5.

  • Picks up seventh win
    Lopez (7-2) earned the win Sunday, allowing no runs on two hits and three walks over six innings against the Phillies. He struck out six.

    Advice: Lopez dominated once again with his sixth start of the season with five or more innings and zero runs allowed, tying him with Tarik Skubal for the most such appearances in MLB. Lopez lowered his ERA to an MLB-leading 1.71 in the process. It's tied for the fifth-lowest by an Atlanta player in his first 16 starts of a season since 1912 and the lowest since Tom Glavine in 2002. The 30-year-old is already up to 89.2 innings this season, which is his most since 2019, so his workload will be something to monitor in the second half of the season.

  • Reynaldo López shuts down Phillies, drops ERA to 1.71
    Reynaldo López twirled six shutout innings on Sunday in a 6-0 win over the Phillies. He struck out six batters and walked three en route to the win.

    Advice: All López does is keep runs off the board. This was the sixth start this season where he didn’t allow an earned run and he hasn’t allowed more than three in any outing. His fastball filled up the zone and his slider put the Phillies’ hitters away. He is a lock for the All-Star team and it’s a bit shocking the White Sox kept him in the bullpen for as long as they did. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:18 pm
     
  • Colt Keith on base three times Sunday
    Colt Keith went 2-for-4 with an RBI, a walk, and a stolen base on Sunday against the Reds.

    Advice: Keith drove in a critical insurance run for the Tigers in the seventh inning just before the Reds rallied for a run of their own. The Tigers continue to show confidence in Keith as he’s batted second in 12 of his last 15 starts. He took a step backwards in June after a torrid May and could still have another gear to hit.

  • On bench again Sunday
    Schneider is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.

    Advice: It's the second straight game on the bench for Schneider after he started the previous three games. The 25-year-old hasn't produced much at the plate recently and has gone 3-for-29 with 12 strikeouts in his last 12 contests. Daulton Varsho is manning left field Sunday while Kevin Kiermaier starts in center. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:07 pm
