    • Matt Chapman out Sunday due to hamstring cramp
      Matt Chapman is not in the lineup Sunday against the Rangers to a hamstring cramp.

      Advice: Giants manager Bob Melvin told reporters before Sunday’s game that the infielder felt his hamstring cramp on a diving attempt in the ninth inning. Melvin also believed that this is a short-term issue that won’t cause the third baseman to miss more than a game. Brett Wisely is getting the start at third in Chapman’s absence.

    • On bench Sunday
      Marte is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

      Advice: Marte was scratched from Wednesday's lineup against the Nationals due to a right knee issue, but the 35-year-old outfielder was able to make the trip to London. He started in Saturday's 7-2 loss, going 2-for-4 with an RBI double in the first inning. With Marte beginning Sunday's game in the dugout, the lefty-hitting DJ Stewart will start in right field and bat fifth against Phillies right-hander Taijuan Walker.

    • Enjoys massive day at dish
      Hernandez went 2-for-4 with a pair of home runs, a walk, six RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 11-3 rout of the Yankees.

      Advice: Hernandez got the scoring started Saturday with a solo shot to center field in the second inning. He added an RBI on a fielder's choice in the sixth before busting the game open for Los Angeles with a 424-foot grand slam in the eighth. Hernandez went just 2-for-16 over his first four games in June, but he's turned scorching hot since, going 7-for-13 with two homers and nine RBI across his past three contests. Hernandez is putting up big numbers in his first campaign with the Dodgers, slashing .262/.331/.500 with 15 homers, 47 RBI, 38 runs and four steals through 278 plate appearances.

    • Ha-Seong Kim swats three-run homer in blowout
      Ha-Seong Kim hit a three-run homer in a blowout win for the Padres on Saturday over the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Kim also walked. The shortstop’s three-run blast extended San Diego’s lead to 4-0 and gave Kim nine on the 2024 campaign. Kim has provided some power/speed over the first two-plus months of the season, and it’s helped made up for a batting average of just .224. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:09 pm

    • Teoscar Hernández hits two homers, drives in six
      Teoscar Hernández hit two homers, drove in six runs and stole a base Saturday in an 11-3 win over the Yankees for the Dodgers.

      Advice: This qualifies as a big fantasy night, objectively. The outfielder got the Dodgers on the board with a solo shot off Nestor Cortes in the second, and he added a grand slam in the eighth to extend the Los Angeles lead to 8-2. The 31-year-old is up to 15 homers on the season with an .831 OPS and 47 RBI over 252 at-bats. There’ll be spells that Hernández drives fantasy managers crazy because of his shaky approach, but there’s enough games like this to deal with those spurts. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:04 pm
       
    • Homers in back-to-back games
      Kim went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in Saturday's 13-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Kim has gone deep in back-to-back games, and he's logged seven extra-base hits among his 10 knocks over the last 10 games. The shortstop started the season slow, but it appears he's starting to find a groove. He's up to nine homers, 32 RBI, 35 runs scored, 13 stolen bases and a .224/.333/.404 slash line through 67 contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:43 pm

    • Drives in two, steals bag
      Yelich went 2-for-4 with two RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's win over the Tigers.

      Advice: He got the scoring started in this one, driving in Brice Turang with a single in the first inning. Yelich came up with the bases loaded in the third and drove in another run on a sacrifice fly. He later added an infield single and a stolen base in the fifth. The former MVP has six multi-hit games over his last 15 games and his hitting .362 over that stretch. He has six homers, 29 RBI and 10 stolen bases through 38 games thus far.
