  • Gimenez has two hits Monday
    Andres Gimenez went 2-for-4 with a double, two runs scored, and one RBI against the Rangers on Monday.

    Advice: Gimenez scored on a wild pitch in the eighth inning before hitting an RBI double in the ninth inning. His power has almost completely disappeared as he’s now sporting a .105 ISO on the season. The Guardians lineup has been so good for run scoring that Gimenez has still managed to score 22 runs and drive in 21 runs in 39 games this season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:48 pm
     
  • Leaves with hamstring issue
    Polanco was removed from Monday's game against the Royals due to right hamstring tightness.

    Advice: The severity of Polanco's injury is unclear, though he's likely headed for further testing. Josh Rojas and Luis Urias could see more opportunities at second base if Polanco is forced to miss additional time. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:36 pm

  • Homers again
    Lopez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Monday against the Tigers.

    Advice: Lopez took advantage of his third-straight start in place of Tim Anderson by collecting his fourth hit and second homer during that short stretch of games. Lopez has played 17 games this season totaling 32 at-bats, hitting .313 with three homers, six RBI, eight runs and a steal. Lopez has displayed a nice hit tool throughout his seven-year rise through the minors, topping .300 in three separate seasons, but the recent power surge is not consistent with his expected profile.

  • Bryson Stott stays hot, Phillies edge Mets
    Bryson Stott went 2-for-4 with a solo homer and two RBI on Monday, powering the Phillies to a 5-4 win over the Mets in a 10-inning marathon.

    Advice: Stott delivered late for Philadelphia, taking Mets stopper Edwin Díaz deep to lead off the ninth inning before tacking on a go-ahead sacrifice fly in the ensuing frame to put the Phillies ahead for good in a back-and-forth slugfest at Citi Field. The 26-year-old infielder has been on an absolute heater of late, batting .433 (13-for-30) with one homer and five steals in nine contests since the start of May, which obviously doesn’t include a two-homer explosion back on April 28.

  • Exits with toe injury
    Morel left Monday's game against Atlanta after fouling a ball off his left foot, and he's been diagnosed with a left toe injury, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    Advice: Morel is reportedly dealing with bumps and bruises, per Lee, so this appears to be a day-to-day type of injury. The Cubs should know more about his availability for the rest of the week after re-evaluating him Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:25 pm

  • Christopher Morel exits with toe bruise
    Christopher Morel exited Monday’s game because of a toe injury, the result of fouling a ball off his foot.

    Advice: No word yet on whether he’ll be getting X-rays. Morel is also playing through some knee soreness in his other leg, so maybe he’ll DH if he plays Tuesday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:21 pm

  • Amed Rosario delivers three RBI in Rays’ win
    Amed Rosario went 2-for-4 with three RBI on Monday, propelling the Rays to a 5-3 win over the Red Sox.

    Advice: Rosario kicked off the scoring with a two-run triple into the right-center field gap in the opening frame before coming around to score on ensuing batter Richie Palacios’ run-scoring single. He also provided a key insurance run with an eighth-inning RBI double as well. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:17 pm
     
  • Otto Lopez smacks two-run homer in Marlins’ loss
    Otto Lopez belted a two-run homer on Monday in the Marlins’ loss to the Tigers.

    Advice: Lopez put the Marlins ahead briefly with an eighth-inning blast off Tigers reliever Alex Faedo with two outs in the frame. It was his third long ball in just 17 games since being called up last month from Triple-A Jacksonville. The 25-year-old should continue getting a shot to prove himself with Miami and is off to a nice start, batting .313/.371/.656 with three homers and one steal in 35 plate appearances.

  • Sitting after four-hit game
    Dubon is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Athletics.

    Advice: After rapping out a season-high four hits in Sunday's 9-3 win over the Tigers, Dubon will retreat to the bench as the Astros open a four-game set with the Athletics. Dubon had started in four of the past five games, but he's still seemingly viewed as a utility player for Houston and hasn't yet seized hold of an everyday spot in the lineup.
