  • Doubles, triples in win
    Suzuki went 2-for-5 with a double, a triple and an RBI in Thursday's 5-3, 10-inning win over the Giants.

    Advice: Suzuki didn't rack up the counting stats but he still had a solid effort in the win. He tallied his 11th double and second triple of the season, and he's now batting a solid .266 with a .796 OPS. Suzuki's game doesn't jump off the page, though he's been a steady contributor since he came over from Japan in 2022. The outfielder slashed .262/.336/.433 as a rookie, then followed that up with a .285/.357/.485 line last season. Suzuki is on pace for similar figures once again this year.

  • McArthur picks up 14th save against Royals
    James McArthur tossed a scoreless ninth inning and picked up the save against the Guardians on Thursday.

    Advice: The save was his 14th of the season. McArthur has a 4.41 ERA after another scoreless outing. There’s no question that he’s the Royals’ best option for saves going forward. Rotoworld Today, 7:36 pm
     
  • Springer hits two home runs, drives in six in win
    George Springer went 3-for-6 with a double, two home runs and six RBI against the Yankees on Thursday.



    Advice: Springer took Carlos Rodon deep in each of the first two innings. He now has eight home runs on the season. Springer has certainly struggled this year with a .205 average and .618 OPS with 23 RBI on the year.

  • Trea Turner reaches three times in losing effort
    Trea Turner went 2-for-4 with three runs scored on Thursday in the Phillies’ loss to the Marlins.

    Advice: Turner also drew a walk in this one, reaching base safely in three of his five plate appearances. The 30-year-old shortstop is batting .300 (12-for-40) with one homer and zero steals since returning from the injured list back on June 17. Rotoworld Today, 6:27 pm
     
  • Michael Kopech picks up save vs. Atlanta
    Michael Kopech pitched a scoreless ninth to get a save Thursday against Atlanta.

    Advice: Kopech didn’t allow a hit while picking up a strikeout. That’s the sixth save of the season for the 28-year-old, and the scoreless frame lowered his ERA to a still-shaky 4.59 on the 2024 season. Kopech is a trade candidate that could be playing elsewhere, but his fantasy value would be severely limited if he’s not a closer. Rotoworld Today, 4:56 pm
     
  • Seiya Suzuki doubles and triples in victory
    Seiya Suzuki doubled and tripled in an extra-inning victory Thursday over the Giants.

    Advice: Suzuki drove in a run with his triple in the third to give Chicago a 3-0 cushion. He’s now tripled twice in 2024, while the double was his 11th of the campaign. Suzuki has three extra-base hits over the last two games to help improve his slash to .266/.337/.459. Rotoworld Today, 4:51 pm

  • Expecting to play Friday
    Correa (wrist) anticipates that he will be in the lineup Friday against the Mariners, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Advice: Correa was hit in the wrist by a pitch Thursday in the seventh inning and immediately left the game. X-rays came back clean, and he told reporters after the game that he's confident he'll be in the lineup to start the Twins' series against Seattle on Friday. There has not been confirmation from the team the Correa will start. Rotowire.com Today, 4:31 pm

  • X-rays negative
    X-rays on Correa's right forearm/wrist came back negative after he was removed from Thursday's game against the Diamondbacks, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Correa immediately made his way into the Twins' clubhouse after getting hit in the arm by a pitch during the seventh inning, but it appears he managed to escape the incident with minimal damage. The team has officially labeled his injury a right wrist contusion, and he is viewed as day-to-day. Should the Twins decide to give the 29-year-old a day or two to heal, Kyle Farmer and Willi Castro would be the next options at shortstop. Rotowire.com Today, 3:40 pm

  • X-rays negative on Carlos Correa’s right wrist
    X-rays came back negative on Carlos Correa’s right wrist.

    Advice: It’s the best-case scenario outcome for Correa after he was drilled on the right forearm by a 94-mph fastball during Thursday’s blowout against the Diamondbacks. The 29-year-old shortstop is officially day-to-day with a right wrist contusion. It’s still possible he could wind up requiring a trip to the injured list in a few days, if the pain and swelling don’t subside. The Twins will most likely have top prospect Brooks Lee on their taxi squad for the next few days, just in case. Rotoworld Today, 3:33 pm
