    • Twirls gem versus Pirates
      Myers (6-3) allowed four hits and a walk while striking out six over eight shutout innings to earn the win Wednesday over the Pirates.

      Advice: This is the second time in 14 appearances (13 starts) this season Myers has managed to toss eight scoreless frames, having also done so versus the Tigers on June 7. The right-hander has a quality start in five of his last seven outings. He's pitched to an excellent 3.13 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 62:20 K:BB through 72 innings. Joe Ross (back) may be able to return to the Brewers' rotation in late July, but Myers looks to have done enough to keep a starting role throughout the campaign.

    • Marcell Ozuna launches 24th homer vs. D-Backs
      Marcell Ozuna went 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored, and two RBI against the Diamondbacks on Wednesday.

      Advice: Ozuna knocked a base hit to lead off the second inning for Atlanta and scored on a double by Travis d’Arnaud. With a runner on in the eighth, he took Ryan Thompson deep for a game-tying two-run homer. The 33-year-old slugger is up to 24 homers while hitting .296/.374/.568 with 55 runs scored and 75 RBI across 385 plate appearances. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:14 pm
       
    • Tobias Myers blanks Pirates over eight in win
      Tobias Myers tossed eight scoreless innings with six strikeouts in a win over the Pirates on Wednesday.

      Advice: Myers was outstanding on Wednesday, holding the Pirates scoreless over seven frames. Pittsburgh didn’t get their first hit until Bryan Reynolds led off the fourth inning with a single. A double and a base hit put runners on the corners with one out in the seventh, but Myers was able to induce a ground ball double play to escape the jam before returning to toss a scoreless eighth. He struck out six on the day while scattering four hits and one walk. The 25-year-old right-hander will carry an excellent 3.13 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, and a 62/20 K/BB ratio across 72 innings into the All-Star break. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:47 pm
       
    • Christopher Morel homers, Cubs edge Orioles
      Christopher Morel blasted a solo homer on Wednesday, powering the Cubs to a 4-0 victory over the Orioles.

      Advice: Morel’s 412-foot moonshot off Orioles ace Corbin Burnes in the second inning put Chicago on the scoreboard and served as a tone-setting blast in a rare low-scoring affair at hitter-friendly Camden Yards. It was his 16th big fly of the season and first time he’s gone deep since June 23. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:21 pm

    • Goes deep in win
      Morel went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Orioles.

      Advice: Morel launched his 16th home run of the season in the second inning against All-Star Corbin Burnes. While the 25-year-old continues to hit for power, he's not doing much else at the plate, as he's batting just .200 on the season. Morel has fantasy upside due to his pop, though fantasy managers will have to endure the low batting average. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:16 pm

    • Logs quality start in win
      Olson (4-8) earned the win against the Guardians on Wednesday, allowing three runs on six hits and one walk with three strikeouts over six innings.

      Advice: Olson allowed two runs in the third inning and a solo homer in the fourth but rebounded with two scoreless frames before departing at 95 pitches. The righty has now logged quality starts in four of his past five outings and registered consecutive victories for the first time this season. He will take a 3.30 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 92:29 K:BB into the All-Star break. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:48 pm
       
    • Reese Olson beats Guardians to earn fourth victory
      Reese Olson picked up his fourth victory of the season on Wednesday night in Motown, limiting the Guardians to three runs on six hits over his six innings of work.

      Advice: The 24-year-old hurler allowed just one base on balls while punching out three batters on the night. The Guardians scored a pair of runs against Olson in the third inning on a two-run double by Angel Martinez, then they tacked on another in the fourth on a solo blast by Daniel Schneemann. Olson generated 12 swings and misses on 95 pitches in the contest — six on his slider — while posting a CSW of 25 percent. He concludes a strong first half with a 4-8 record, 3.30 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and a 92/29 K/BB ratio over 101 innings in 18 starts. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:21 pm
       
    • Still experiencing symptoms
      Cubs manager Craig Counsell said Wednesday that Brown is still experiencing lingering discomfort in his neck, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.

      Advice: Brown has been shelved since mid-June with a neck strain and doesn't appear to have made much progress. He had been cleared to resume throwing in late June, but it's uncertain where he currently stands in his throwing program. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:01 pm

    • Swipes another base
      Ohtani went 1-for-2 with a walk and a stolen base Tuesday in a loss to the Phillies.

      Advice: The Dodgers were routed in the matchup, so Ohtani got a few innings off after he was pinch-hit for in the seventh inning. Nonetheless, the slugger reached base twice and extended to three a streak of games with at least one steal. Ohtani is putting together an MVP-caliber campaign in his first year with the Dodgers -- he ranks first in the NL in homers (28) and runs (72), and is tied for third in RBI (65) and thefts (21). He also leads the National League and ranks second in MLB with a 1.037 OPS. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:35 am
