  • 76-60-7 2nd Place
    • Notches three hits
      Palacios went 3-for-4 with an RBI, a run scored and a stolen base during Tuesday's win over the Royals.

      Advice: Palacios singled and came around to score in the second inning to give the Rays an early 1-0 lead. Following a 2.5-hour rain delay, he then lined an RBI double into right field in the sixth frame. Another single in the eighth allowed him to swipe a bag -- his 13th steal of the season. The 27-year-old is now slashing .251/.345/.348 on the year and has three multi-hit performances in his last five contests. Rotowire.com 5 minutes ago
       
    • Delivers three-run homer
      Springer went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run during Tuesday's 7-6 win over the Astros.

      Advice: Springer tagged Spencer Arrighetti for a long ball in the third inning, extending the Blue Jays' lead to 5-0. The outfielder is riding a seven-game hit streak, swatting four homers and driving in 13 during that stretch. On the year, Springer has hit nine homers and swiped nine bases in 322 plate appearances.

    • Breaks homer drought
      Benson went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Yankees.

      Advice: Benson snapped a 26-game homerless streak, tagging Luis Gil for a two-run shot in the fifth inning. After enduring an 0-for-25 stretch in the middle of June, Benson looks to be turning the corner, batting 4-for-18 with four runs and six RBI in his last five games. Still, the outfielder is batting .191 with a 39.4 percent strikeout rate on the year. Rotowire.com 57 minutes ago
       
    • Clubs third homer
      Schneemann went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 7-6 win over the White Sox.

      Advice: Schneemann has gone 10-for-41 (.244) with three homers and nine RBI over his last 13 games. The utility man is at a .262/.356/.508 slash line over his first 73 plate appearances in the majors, which has been enough to keep him in the lineup fairly regularly. He's seen most of his recent playing time between center field and right field, offering a left-handed-hitting option to complement righties Tyler Freeman and Jhonkensy Noel.

    • Continues crushing Milwaukee
      Doyle went 2-for-3 with a double, a solo homer, a walk and an additional RBI during Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Brewers.

      Advice: The 26-year-old opened the series with two homers Monday and followed up with two more extra-base hits in Tuesday's contest. Doyle went 5-for-40 over the final 10 games of June but has quickly turned things around after the calendar flipped to July. He's now tied last season's total of 10 home runs and has a .264/.328/.424 slash line with 32 RBI, 49 runs and 20 steals through 81 games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:50 pm
       
    • Richie Palacios collects three hits in win Tuesday
      Richie Palacios went 3-for-4 with a double, stolen base and an RBI as the Rays defeated the Royals in Kansas City.

      Advice: The speedy 27-year-old outfielder reached on an infield single off of Brady Singer in the second inning, advanced to third on a double by Jose Siri and scampered home with the game’s first run on a wild pitch. Palacios also drove in a run with a two-out RBI double off of John Schreiber in the sixth inning. With his three-hit night, Palacios is now slashing .251/.354/.348 with four homers, 18 RBI and 13 stolen bases in 239 plate appearances on the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:49 pm
       
    • Logs steal in win
      Schuemann went 1-for-2 with a stolen base in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Angels.

      Advice: Schuemann has a steal in two of his last three games, though he's hitting a meager .149 (7-for-47) over his last 15 contests. He's maintained a starting role at shortstop, though his .227/.316/.315 slash line for the year is far from impressive. He's added three home runs, 15 RBI, 26 runs scored and six thefts across 63 games. Armando Alvarez is Schuemann's biggest threat for playing time until Darell Hernaiz (ankle) can return, which is likely to be after the All-Star break. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:35 pm

    • Powers offense Tuesday
      Butler went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and additional run scored in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Angels.

      Advice: This was Butler's first multi-hit effort in 12 contests since he was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas. He's gone 7-for-32 (.219) in that span, adding 12 strikeouts and no walks. The outfielder is at a .188/.266/.297 slash line with three homers, 11 RBI, 12 runs scored and four stolen bases through 154 plate appearances this season. Butler is sharing right field with Daz Cameron, though the lefty-hitting Butler has lost out on some starts versus right-handed pitchers. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:28 pm
       
    • Homer, steal in win
      Rooker went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Angels.

      Advice: Rooker has hit safely in six of his last seven games, going 8-for-26 (.308) with three homers in that span. He offers more power than speed -- with Tuesday's performance, he has 16 long balls and three steals across 72 contests this year. The 29-year-old has added a .261/.338/.515 slash line with 48 RBI, 30 runs scored, 15 doubles and two triples as the Athletics' top designated hitter. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:21 pm
