    • Yu Darvish fires seven scoreless to beat Dodgers
      Yu Darvish was magnificent in Sunday afternoon’s victory over the Dodgers, piling up seven strikeouts across seven innings of shutout baseball.

      Advice: The 37-year-old right-hander allowed just two hits and one walk on the day. He retired the first 14 hitters that he faced in order until he walked Andy Pages with two outs in the fifth inning. He then allowed a single to Enrique Hernandez, but got Miguel Rojas to line out to end the threat. Darvish generated 19 swings and misses on 101 pitches in the ballgame — one or more on eight different offerings — while posting an elite CSW of 36 percent. He has yet to allow a run over 17 innings since returning from the injured list and now boasts a 2.43 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and a 37/12 K/BB ratio over 40 2/3 innings on the year. He draws a tough assignment next time out though, having to take on the Braves in Atlanta on Saturday. Rotoworld 13 minutes ago
       
    • Miles Mikolas gives up three runs in victory
      Miles Mikolas won after allowing three runs in six innings Sunday against the Brewers.

      Advice: Mikolas came into this game without having issued a free pass in four starts, but he walked three today. On the other hand, he went without allowing a homer after giving up at least one in each of those four aforementioned outings. He’s 3-5 with a 6.19 ERA. Rotoworld Today, 3:46 pm
       
    • Adley Rutschman homers in loss to Arizona
      Adley Rutschman went 1-for-4 with a home run in a loss to the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Rutschman took a Zac Gallen offering and hit it 363 feet at 105.5 mph for his sixth home run of the season. The 26-year-old continues to be a solid performer at the top of the Orioles’ lineup and one of the best catchers in fantasy baseball. Rotoworld Today, 3:03 pm
       
    • Kenley Jansen locks down 7th save in win
      Kenley Jansen threw a scoreless ninth inning in a 3-2 win over the Nationals to secure a save.

      Advice: The save was Jansen’s 7th on the season, and the veteran now has a 2.63 ERA on the year. He’s still likely to be moved by the trade deadline, but he figures to get a shot to close no matter where he goes, so he remains a rock-solid fantasy asset. Rotoworld Today, 2:52 pm
       
    • Unsure about return timeline
      Trout said Thursday that he doesn't yet have a timeline to return from the surgery he underwent on his left knee, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports. The slugger also stated that he was given the option to postpone surgery until after the season and play exclusively as a designated hitter, but he opted to get the procedure done immediately.

      Advice: Trout underwent surgery to repair the meniscus in his left knee May 3. The Angels have stated that they expect the three-time AL MVP to return before the end of the season, but it remains unclear exactly how much time he's expected to miss. Though Trout could have played through the injury and held off on surgery in order to serve as the Angels' DH, he may not have been able to do so at his usual level of effectiveness, as he indicated that such a route would have required a high level of injury management and substantial pain.

    • Alex Verdugo taking seat Sunday against Rays
      Alex Verdugo is out of the lineup Sunday against the Rays.

      Advice: Verdugo has gone hitless over the last four games and has hit just .171 in the month of May. He’ll get a day off with Jahmai Jones getting the start in left field and hitting ninth. Oswaldo Cabrera is also out of the lineup Sunday with Jon Berti getting a start at third in Cabrera’s absence. Rotoworld Today, 8:24 am
       
    • Sitting against southpaw
      Verdugo is out of the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Rays.

      Advice: With southpaw Tyler Alexander taking the hill for the Rays on Sunday, the righty-hitting Jahmai Jones will start in left field and bat ninth in place of the lefty-hitting Verdugo. Verdugo has gone 0-for-8 with three strikeouts over his last two games. Rotowire.com Today, 8:22 am
       
    • Andrew Heaney whiffs eight Saturday at Coors Field
      Andrew Heaney posted a season-high eight strikeouts and allowed two runs over five innings on Saturday in a no-decision against the Rockies.

      Advice: Heaney drew a tough starting assignment on the road at high-octane Coors Field, but managed to limit Colorado’s lineup to just a pair of runs on eight hits over five frames. He induced a whopping 17 swinging strikes and finished with a near-elite 36 percent CSW. The 32-year-old lefty has settled into a groove his last few times out, allowing two earned runs or fewer in three consecutive outings since May 1. He’ll bring a serviceable 4.39 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 39/9 K/BB ratio across 41 innings (eight starts) into a home outing on Friday against the Angels. Rotoworld Today, 3:46 am
       
    • Rhys Hoskins swats go-ahead homer vs. Cardinals
      Rhys Hoskins connected for a go-ahead three-run homer on Saturday, lifting the Brewers to a 5-3 comeback win over the Cardinals.

      Advice: Hoskins lifted a 407-foot shot to right-center field — his ninth big fly of the season — off Cardinals veteran reliever Andrew Kittredge in the seventh inning to put Milwaukee ahead for good in a low-scoring showdown. The 31-year-old slugger has started to really heat up recently, going deep three times over his last four games. Rotoworld Today, 3:34 am
