  • Reaches three times, swipes base
    Betts went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, a run and a stolen base against the Nationals in Thursday's 2-1 victory.

    Advice: Betts scored the decisive run in the contest by walking, swiping second base and crossing the plate on a Freddie Freeman double in the eighth inning. Betts seems to be running more frequently so far this season -- the stolen base was his sixth of the campaign through 27 contests, putting him well on pace to reach 20 steals for the first time since 2018. That has to be sweet music to his fantasy managers' ears, and Betts is paying huge dividends in other areas as well, slashing .374/.477/.636 with six homers, 21 RBI and 27 runs.

  • Smashes long ball in loss
    Kim went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run against Colorado in a loss Thursday.

    Advice: Kim's third-inning blast gave San Diego a short-lived three-run lead. The long ball was his fourth of the season and just his second extra-base hit over his past eight contests. Kim has added 17 RBI, 17 runs, seven steals and a .238/.339/.436 slash line through 119 plate appearances. Rotowire.com 59 minutes ago

  • 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 Yesterday, 10:13 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 Yesterday, 7:24 pm

  • Returns to action
    India started at designated hitter and went 0-for-4 in Thursday's 5-0 loss to the Phillies.

    Advice: India, who made his first appearance since Saturday after dealing with an illness, went hitless for the seventh time in the last nine contests. He entered the game in a 4-for-42 slump over the past 13 games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:16 pm
     
  • Mookie Betts tallies two hits, steals base in win
    Mookie Betts went 2-for-3 with his sixth stolen base of the season on Thursday in the Dodgers’ win over the Nationals.

    Advice: Betts continues to serve as Los Angeles’ primary offensive catalyst, which is even more unbelievable considering he’s playing shortstop everyday for the first time in his professional career. It’s unreal. The 31-year-old fantasy superstar’s latest multi-hit effort raises his batting average to a sublime .374 (40-for-107) mark to go along with 27 runs scored, six homers, 21 RBI and six steals through 27 games.

  • Ha-Seong Kim swats two-run homer vs. Rockies
    Ha-Seong Kim hit a two-run homer Thursday against the Rockies while going 1-for-4.

    Advice: Kim swatted a two-run homer in the third inning, and it’s the fourth homer of the season for the shortstop. The 28-year-old has shown some pop in the early portion of the season, and he’s also added seven stolen bases for good measure. The .240 average leaves a bit to be desired, for those looking for something to complain about. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:17 pm

  • Nico Hoerner picks up three more hits vs. Astros
    Nico Hoerner went 3-for-5 against the Astros on Thursday.

    Advice: Hoerner singled twice and added a double. The 26-year-old now has his average to .300 to go with a .785 OPS. This makes back-to-back multi-hit games for Hoerner, and he appears to be figuring things out after a slow start on the season. Fantasy managers sure would like to see more running from a player that stole 43 bases last year, as Hoerner is still stuck on one stolen base in 2024. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:09 pm
     
  • Luis Urías hits go-ahead homer as M’s top Rangers
    Luis Urías hit a go-ahead two-run homer to help the Mariners to a 4-2 win over the Rangers on Thursday.

    Advice: With the score tied at 2-2, Urías swatted a two-run blast off Andrew Heaney to give Seattle a 4-2 lead and ultimately the victory. It’s the second homer of the season for the 26-year-old, and he’s now posting a respectable .803 OPS. Urías should continue to get at-bats against southpaws, but Josh Rojas is going to get much more playing time at third in the strong-side of the platoon. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:59 pm
