  • 32-60-8 11th Place
    • Hits go-ahead home run
      Donovan went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursday's 4-3 win versus the Pirates.

      Advice: The 27-year-old took Mitch Keller deep in the sixth inning for what turned out to be the game-deciding run. Donovan extended his hitting streak to eight contests and snapped a streak of 26 games without a homer in the process. He has gone 10-for-30 (.333) during his hitting streak and now carries a .248/.325/.380 slash line with five home runs and 29 RBI for the season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:46 pm

    • Brendan Donovan homers in Cardinals’ win
      Brendan Donovan hit his fifth homer Thursday to help the Cardinals edge the Pirates 4-3.

      Advice: Donovan has been dropped in the lineup, even against righties, but he’s making a case for another opportunity hitting first or second with his current eight-game hitting streak. He’s back up to .248/.325/.380 overall, even though his .271 BABIP is 50 points lower this his career mark. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:57 pm

    • Jacob Young goes 0-for-3 in loss to Tigers
      Jacob Young finished 0-for-3 against the Tigers on Thursday and is 2-for-23 in his last seven games.

      Advice: Young did have two hard-hit balls today, which is notable considering that his 25% hard-hit rate is among the lowest in the majors. Power isn’t at all Young’s game, but it’s disturbing that his OBP has collapsed. He’s hit .217 and walked just three times in 99 plate appearances since May 10. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:28 pm
       
    • Randy Arozarena (hamstring) rejoins Rays lineup
      Randy Arozarena (hamstring) is back in the lineup for Thursday’s game against the Cubs.

      Advice: Arozarena is playing left field and batting second against the Cubs after being held out of the lineup for the last two games of the series due to right hamstring tightness. He was able to pinch-hit each of the last two nights and remained in to play left field last night. It doesn’t sound like a serious concern moving forward. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:54 pm
       
    • Returns to Tampa Bay lineup
      Arozarena (hamstring) will start in left field and bat second in Thursday's game versus the Cubs.

      Advice: Arozarena missed the previous two contests with right hamstring tightness but is feeling well enough to give it a go in this one. The 29-year-old will bring a disappointing .599 OPS into play Thursday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:19 pm
       
    • Notches first steal of season
      Donovan went 2-for-3 with a walk, one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Pirates.

      Advice: Donovan extended his hitting streak to seven games. He's gone 9-for-27 (.333) in that span, but just one of those hits has gone for extra bases. The 27-year-old's steal Wednesday was his first of the season, and he's not much of a speed threat after logging just five thefts in 95 games a year ago. Donovan is up to a .247/.322/.368 slash line with four home runs, 28 RBI, 30 runs scored, 15 doubles and one triple over 270 plate appearances this season. He spent much of the first two months of the season batting leadoff versus right-handed pitchers, but Masyn Winn is now atop the order on a near-everyday basis, having hit there in all but two of 11 games in June. Donovan has hit no higher than sixth over the last week. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 11:23 pm

    • Steven Kwan collects two hits in loss Wednesday
      Steven Kwan went 2-for-5 with a pair of singles and a run scored on Wednesday as the Guardians fell to the Reds in Cincinnati.

      Advice: Kwan got things started with a one-out single off of Nick Lodolo in the third inning, then came around to score the game’s tying run as David Fry worked a two-out walk with the bases loaded. The 26-year-old outfielder also looked like he had an RBI single in the fourth inning, but Brayan Rocchio was cut down at the plate. On the season, Kwan is now slashing a ridiculous .380/.445/.534 with four homers, 16 RBI and three stolen bases. Rotoworld Wednesday, 7:07 pm
       
    • On bench again Wednesday
      Arozarena (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Cubs, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

      Advice: Arozarena will remain on the bench for the second day in a row while he manages a tight right hamstring. Given that the Rays felt comfortable enough using Arozarena as a pinch hitter in Tuesday's 5-2 win, he's seemingly on track to avoid a stint on the injured list. Arozarena's absence from the lineup Wednesday will enable the Rays to give Yandy Diaz a day out of the field and deploy him at designated hitter. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 1:00 pm
       
    • Randy Arozarena remains out of lineup Wednesday
      Randy Arozarena (hamstring) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Cubs.

      Advice: Arozarena is battling through a hamstring issue but was able to pinch hit on Tuesday. The Rays are calling him day-to-day, so it’s likely that he’s close but not ready to be out in the field for an entire game or sprinting around the bases. The Rays will start Richie Palacios in left field. Jose Caballero is also back in the lineup at third base with Isaac Paredes moving to first and Yandy Diaz at DH. Rotoworld Wednesday, 12:01 pm
