  • Slugs third homer in loss
    Profar went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, two total runs, three total RBI and a walk in a loss to the Rockies on Thursday.

    Advice: Profar plated San Diego's second run of the contest with a single in the third inning and tacked on a two-run homer in the seventh. The big performance lifted his season slash line to .295/.406/.466. Profar ranks third on the Padres with 26 hits and leads the club with 18 RBI. Rotowire.com 3 minutes ago
     
  • Swipes two bags Thursday
    Doyle went 3-for-4 with three runs, a walk, an RBI and two stolen bases in Thursday's 10-9 victory over the Padres.

    Advice: Doyle was busy on the basepaths Thursday, reaching base four times and scoring thrice. All three of his hits were singles, but he advanced to second via stolen base on two instances. Doyle has four multi-hit games over his past eight contests and is now slashing an impressive .330/.371/.527 on the season. Rotowire.com 6 minutes ago
     
  • Belts big long ball
    Goodman went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run Thursday in a 10-9 victory versus San Diego.

    Advice: Goodman's eighth-inning, three-run blast was enormous not only in terms of distance (it traveled an estimated 448 feet) but also in terms of impact, as it brought the Rockies to within two runs in what was to become a successful late comeback. The homer was Goodman's first hit in six at-bats since being promoted from Triple-A on Wednesday. The 2021 fourth-round draft pick had seven long balls through 91 plate appearances in the minors prior to the call-up and knocked 34 home runs over 106 minor-league contests last year, so his potential for big-league power is intriguing, especially given his home field.

  • Clubs first homer of 2024
    France went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during Thursday's 4-3 win over the Rangers.

    Advice: Although France boasts a quality .266 batting average through 22 games, he's been a non-factor in the power department, waiting until his 84th plate appearance to notch his first home run of the campaign. The long ball came in the first inning off Andrew Heaney and plated Julio Rodriguez. His ISO has dropped from .116 to .088 while his strikeout rate sits at 21.8 percent after posting a K-rate lower than 18 percent in three straight seasons. Rotowire.com 18 minutes ago

  • Homers in win
    Miranda went 2-for-4 with a home run, one RBI and one run scored in Thursday's 6-3 win over the White Sox.

    Advice: Miranda hasn't been able to get on base so far since getting called up as he was hitting just .200 (7-for-35) with just one walk in 13 games before Thursday. He'll need to keep on a roll to get regular time at third base. However, Kyle Farmer is slumping even worse with a .297 OPS as the Twins struggle to find production at third base in the absence of Royce Lewis. Rotowire.com 52 minutes ago

  • Launches first-career homer
    Crow-Armstrong went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during Thursday's 3-1 win over the Astros.

    Advice: Crow-Armstrong went yard in his third at-bat of 2024, tagging Bryan Abreu for a two-run shot in the sixth inning as his first career long ball. One of the top prospects in the Cubs system, Crow-Armstrong failed to collect a hit in 19 plate appearances a season ago and will look to fare better during his MLB stay while Cody Bellinger (ribs) is sidelined.

  • 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 58 minutes ago
     
  • Hits first homer
    Santana went 1-for-4 with a home run, one RBI and one run scored in Thursday's 6-3 victory over the White Sox. It was his first home runs of the season.

    Advice: After a dreadful start to the season (.347 OPS and one extra base hit in his first 16 games), Santana is finally showing some signs of life at the plate. He's 4-for-21 with a double and home run in his last five games. Rotowire.com Today, 10:09 pm
     
  • Struggles continue
    Tellez went 0-for-2 with a walk and a run scored Thursday against the Brewers.

    Advice: Tellez hasn't gotten on track at the plate this season and now has only two hits across his last 28 at-bats. He's struck out seven times in that span, and he has only two barrels on 51 batted ball events for the season. The Pirates could ultimately opt to play Connor Joe at first base more regularly if Tellez's struggles continue, and the eventual return of Yasmani Grandal (foot) could also mean that Tellez will lose some plate appearances.
