  • Collects steal Sunday
    Triolo went 2-for-4 with a stolen base in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Cubs.

    Advice: Triolo has gone 5-for-11 with four strikeouts over his last three games. Prior to this burst of offense, he went just 2-for-30 with an 8:13 BB:K over a 10-game stretch. The infielder is slashing a poor .212/.297/.265 with two home runs, four steals, 15 RBI, eight runs scored and two doubles over 172 plate appearances this season. While those numbers aren't great, Triolo appears set to maintain a starting role at third base as long as Ke'Bryan Hayes (back) is out. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:34 pm
     
  • Jake Cronenworth goes deep in victory over Braves
    Jake Cronenworth smashed a two-run homer on Sunday night, helping to propel the Padres to a lopsided victory over the Braves.

    Advice: Cronenworth victimized Braves’ starter Bryce Elder in the opening inning with his two-out, 392-foot (101.3 mph EV) two-run blast that gave the Padres the early lead. That would be his only hit in four at-bats on the night. On the season, the versatile 30-year-old is now hitting .275/.344/.485 with eight long balls and 30 RBI. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:05 pm
     
  • Spencer Torkelson goes deep in loss to D’Backs
    Spencer Torkelson clubbed his third home run of the season on Sunday afternoon, but it wasn’t enough to power the Tigers past the Diamondbacks in Arizona.

    Advice: The 24-year-old slugger got the Tigers on the board in the third inning, crushing a 428-foot (106.5 mph EV) solo shot off of Jordan Montgomery in the third inning. He also reached on a fielder’s choice in the seventh inning and scored on an RBI triple off the bat of Kerry Carpenter that was nearly an inside-the-park home run. Torkelson finished the afternoon 1-for-4 and is now hitting .227/.291/.360 with three long balls and 17 RBI. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:16 pm
     
  • Alec Bohm knocks in five to take over MLB lead
    Alec Bohm had a three-run homer and two sac flies to lead the Phillies to an 11-5 win over the Nationals on Sunday.

    Advice: Bohm has had four six-RBI games in his career, including one last month, but this is the first time he’s finished with exactly five. He’s now the major league leader with 42 RBI, giving him one more than Marcell Ozuna and José Ramírez. With a .330/.389/.528 line in 47 games, he’s on track to make his All-Star debut this summer.

  • Kody Clemens doubles twice in win over Nationals
    Kody Clemens doubled twice and knocked in two runs against the Nationals on Sunday.

    Advice: Clemens has nine hits in 11 appearances for the Phillies and seven have gone for extra bases, giving an .821 slugging percentage to go along with his .321 average. Nothing much in his past suggests he’ll be keeping this up, but the Phillies might as well pencil him into the lineup against righties for now. He might even be a mixed-league option with the Phillies playing in Coors next weekend. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:20 pm
