    • Slugs league-leading 14th homer
      Henderson went 1-for-3 with his MLB-leading 14th home run in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Mariners.

      Advice: Not only was it flamethrowing reliever Andres Munoz who Henderson took deep in the ninth inning, but he did so to the opposite field and over the 13-foot wall in left field in an impressive showing of power. It was the second game in a row with a homer for Henderson, who also drew a pair of walks Saturday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:30 pm

    • Nails down save No. 8
      Munoz allowed a run but hung on to notch his eighth save of the season in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Orioles.

      Advice: Gunnar Henderson made things interesting with a two-out, solo home run, but Munoz quickly bounced back and sat down Adley Rutschman swinging to end it. Henderson's long ball represents the only run Munoz has allowed over his last 10 appearances, and he boasts a 15:1 K:BB over 12 innings during that span. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:23 pm
       
    • Andrés Muñoz closes out Orioles on Saturday
      Andrés Muñoz served up a solo home run against the Orioles in the ninth inning on Saturday, but managed to escape the frame with a one-run lead to earn his eighth save of the season.

      Advice: Muñoz came on after the Mariners scored a pair of runs in the eighth inning to take the lead, and despite the solo homer he made it stand up. He struck out Cedric Mullins and got Kyle Stowers to line out to first base to start the inning. The 25-year-old right-hander then fell behind Gunnar Henderson and served up a two-out, solo blast that pulled the Orioles to within a run. That would be as close as they would get though as he punched out Adley Rutschman to end it. Munoz now holds a 1.86 ERA to go along with eight saves and a pair of victories on the season.

    • Chisholm blasts sixth home run
      Jazz Chisholm went 3-for-5 with three runs scored, three RBI and a home run against the Mets.



      Advice: Chisholm’s home run was his sixth of the year. Despite coming into this season in better shape, he hasn’t seen a significant uptick in his production. Chisholm has stayed healthy, which has been a problem for him in the past, but his numbers are fairly similar to last season’s pace across the board.

    • Sitting out third straight
      Diaz (hand) isn't in the Rockies' lineup for Saturday's game against the Giants.

      Advice: Left hand soreness will cause Diaz to miss his third game in a row Saturday. The Rockies haven't given any indication that the 33-year-old backstop is trending toward an IL stint, but he may have to spend time on the injured list if his condition doesn't improve within the next couple of days. Hunter Goodman will start behind the plate and bat eighth while Diaz recovers. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:54 am
       
    • Day off Saturday
      Lowe isn't in the Rays' lineup for Saturday's game versus Toronto, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

      Advice: Lowe has struck out six times in his last two games, so the Rays will sit him down Saturday and give him a chance to clear his head. In his absence, Jonny DeLuca will start in right field while batting fifth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:44 am
       
    • Elias Díaz (hand) remains out Saturday vs. Giants
      Elias Díaz (hand) remains absent from the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Giants.

      Advice: It’ll be Hunter Goodman handling the catching duties on Saturday afternoon with Díaz sidelined for a third consecutive contest due to left hand soreness. Fantasy managers should still consider him day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:13 am
       
    • Idle Saturday
      Cabrera isn't in the Yankees' lineup for Saturday's game against the White Sox.

      Advice: Cabrera will sit down Saturday after going 0-for-3 with a strikeout during New York's win over the Sox on Friday. His absence will give Jon Berti a chance to start at the hot corner while batting ninth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:20 am

    • Coughs up five runs
      Peralta (3-2) allowed five runs on eight hits and a walk over five innings Friday, striking out six and taking a loss against Houston.

      Advice: All five runs against Peralta came on Houston home runs; Jake Meyers knocked a two-run shot in the second inning followed by Jeremy Pena's three-run blast in the fifth. Peralta forced 13 whiffs -- including seven with his slider -- and has generated double-digit swinging strikes in each of his nine starts this season. After beginning the year with a 1.90 ERA through 23.2 frames, he's posted an ugly 6.23 ERA over his last five outings. Peralta's next start is lined up to be in Miami next week.
