  • Homers in win
    Miranda went 2-for-4 with a home run, one RBI and one run scored in Thursday's 6-3 win over the White Sox.

    Advice: Miranda hasn't been able to get on base so far since getting called up as he was hitting just .200 (7-for-35) with just one walk in 13 games before Thursday. He'll need to keep on a roll to get regular time at third base. However, Kyle Farmer is slumping even worse with a .297 OPS as the Twins struggle to find production at third base in the absence of Royce Lewis. Rotowire.com 31 minutes ago

  • Launches first-career homer
    Crow-Armstrong went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during Thursday's 3-1 win over the Astros.

    Advice: Crow-Armstrong went yard in his third at-bat of 2024, tagging Bryan Abreu for a two-run shot in the sixth inning as his first career long ball. One of the top prospects in the Cubs system, Crow-Armstrong failed to collect a hit in 19 plate appearances a season ago and will look to fare better during his MLB stay while Cody Bellinger (ribs) is sidelined.

  • Belts two homers in win
    Julien went 2-for-4 with two homers, two RBI and two runs scored in Thursday's win over the White Sox.

    Advice: Julien has shown good power early in the season with seven home runs and a .513 SLG. He's hitting just .213, however, as he needs to reduce his 33.3% K% and make more contact. Rotowire.com 38 minutes ago
     
  • Hits first homer
    Santana went 1-for-4 with a home run, one RBI and one run scored in Thursday's 6-3 victory over the White Sox. It was his first home runs of the season.

    Advice: After a dreadful start to the season (.347 OPS and one extra base hit in his first 16 games), Santana is finally showing some signs of life at the plate. He's 4-for-21 with a double and home run in his last five games. Rotowire.com 42 minutes ago
     
  • Struggles continue
    Tellez went 0-for-2 with a walk and a run scored Thursday against the Brewers.

    Advice: Tellez hasn't gotten on track at the plate this season and now has only two hits across his last 28 at-bats. He's struck out seven times in that span, and he has only two barrels on 51 batted ball events for the season. The Pirates could ultimately opt to play Connor Joe at first base more regularly if Tellez's struggles continue, and the eventual return of Yasmani Grandal (foot) could also mean that Tellez will lose some plate appearances.

  • Clobbers first-inning homer
    Perez went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run during Thursday's 2-1 win over the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Although Thursday's game was called after five innings due to poor weather, Perez managed to make an impact, swatting a two-run shot off Jose Berrios in the first frame. Over the Royals last two series', Perez is batting .435 with eight RBI and one strikeout across 27 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 9:49 pm
     
  • Records first steal
    Naylor went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Red Sox.

    Advice: Naylor has gone hitless in his last two games -- it's just the second time this season he's been held without a hit in consecutive contests. He was able to pick up his first steal in three attempts this year with his lone trip on base Thursday. Despite the brief slump, he's slashing .295/.366/.557 with six home runs, 20 RBI, 13 runs scored and five doubles over 101 plate appearances in a starting role at first base.

  • Picks up steal in win
    Rocchio went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Red Sox.

    Advice: Rocchio has gone 3-for-12 over his last four contests and continues to see a starting role at shortstop. He's yet to do much with the steady at-bats, slashing .205/.280/.301 with two steals on three attempts, four RBI, 10 runs scored, seven doubles and no home runs through 23 contests. With Gabriel Arias batting .280 in a utility role, it's unclear how much longer Rocchio will go relatively unchallenged for his spot in the lineup. Rotowire.com Today, 8:01 pm
     
  • Orelvis Martinez continues mashing at Triple-A
    Blue Jays INF prospect Orelvis Martinez launched a three-run homer on Thursday for Triple-A Buffalo.

    Advice: Martinez has homered seven times in his last nine games and continues to make a compelling case to get the call to Toronto. The 22-year-old slugger is batting .325 (27-for-83) with a 1.060 OPS through 21 games so far. Rotoworld Today, 7:24 pm
