    • Extends hitting streak with homer
      Nimmo went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Cubs.

      Advice: Nimmo has hit safely in nine straight games, going 16-for-37 (.432) in that span. He's turned up the power recently as well, slugging a homer in four of his last six contests to put him at 11 long balls on the year. The outfielder has added a .244/.358/.430 slash line with 43 RBI, 46 runs scored and five stolen bases across 72 games. Rotowire.com Sunday, 8:19 pm
       
    • Brandon Nimmo leaves the yard in victory over Cubs
      Brandon Nimmo swatted a solo home run on Sunday night, helping to power the Mets to a victory over the Cubs at Wrigley Field.

      Advice: Brandon Nimmo slugged a solo homer in the third inning — going back-to-back with teammate Francisco Liriano off of Cubs’ starter Javier Assad. His 379-foot (101.3 mph EV) solo shot increased the Mets’ early lead to 3-0 and proved to be the difference in the ballgame. He finished the night 1-for-3 plus a walk and is now hitting .245/.360/.431 with 11 long balls, 43 RBI and five stolen bases on the season. Rotoworld Sunday, 7:22 pm
       
    • Jackson Chourio collects two hits in win Sunday
      Jackson Chourio went 2-for-2 with a double and a run scored as the Brewers triumphed over the Padres in San Diego on Sunday afternoon.

      Advice: The 20-year-old outfielder wasn’t even in the Brewers’ starting lineup for this one, but still managed to have a strong day at the dish. He entered as a pinch-hitter for Tyler Black in the seventh inning, where he singled to right and came around to score on an RBI single off the bat of Jake Bauers. Chourio also doubled off of Jhony Brito in the ninth inning, but was stranded at third. He’s now slashing .230/.278/.362 with seven homers, 27 RBI and eight stolen bases on the season.

    • Alec Burleson has two hits, two SB in win
      Alec Burleson went 2-for-4 with two RBI and two steals in a win over the Giants on Sunday.

      Advice: Burleson had an RBI single in the first inning and then another RBI single in the second to give him 32 RBI on the season. The two swipes also gave him five on the year to go along with a .385/.319/.469 slash line. He hits near the top of the lineup pretty much every day and needs to be rostered in more leagues.

      Chourio isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.

      Advice: Chourio will get a chance to clear his head Sunday after going 3-for-17 with four RBI and two runs scored over his last five games. Sal Frelick, Blake Perkins and Jake Bauers will start across the Brewers' outfield while Christian Yelich serves as the DH. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:06 am
       
    • Sitting Sunday
      Robert is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against Detroit.

      Advice: White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Sunday that it's a scheduled day off for Robert as the 26-year-old outfielder eases his way back from his IL stint due to a hip flexor strain, per Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times. Since returning from the injured list June 4, Robert is slashing .180/.275/.459 with five home runs and seven RBI over 61 at-bats. Tommy Pham will start in center field while Andrew Benintendi and Gavin Sheets man the corners against Tigers right-hander Reese Olson. Rotowire.com Sunday, 9:37 am
       
    • Luis Robert Jr. not in Sunday’s lineup vs. Tigers
      Luis Robert Jr. is not in the lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the division-rival Tigers.

      Advice: It appears to be a routine off day for Robert, who has made nine consecutive starts for Chicago dating back to June 13. The 26-year-old is batting .180 (11-for-61) with five homers and two steals in 17 games since returning earlier this month from a lengthy stint on the injured list. Rotoworld Sunday, 9:05 am

      Steer went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a loss to Boston on Saturday.

      Advice: Steer gave the Reds an early lead with his two-run shot to left field in the first inning. It was his ninth long ball of the season and his third through 19 contests in June. Steer is slashing .234/.326/.401 with 45 RBI, 33 runs and 12 stolen bases on the campaign. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:09 pm

    • Best game of season
      McCormick went 3-for-3 with a pair of solo home runs, a stolen base and three total runs scored in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Orioles.

      Advice: McCormick got a rare start versus a right-hander -- his second in the last three games -- and he made it count by taking Corbin Burnes deep in the fifth inning. All three of McCormick's homers this year have come within his last five games, and he's added six RBI and six runs scored in that span. Overall, he's posted a mediocre .225/.286/.358 slash line with 15 RBI, 15 runs scored and three stolen bases across 133 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:03 pm
