  • Swats homer No. 10
    Henderson went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Monday's 2-0 win over the Yankees.

    Advice: The 22-year-old shortstop gave Grayson Rodriguez and the Orioles bullpen all the offense they would need when he took Clarke Schmidt deep in the first inning. Henderson has gone yard four times in the last six games, giving him 10 homers on the season -- tied with Mike Trout for the MLB lead. Henderson sports a .289/.352/.632 slash line with six steals, 23 RBI and 25 runs through 28 contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:13 pm
     
  • Gunnar Henderson homers in win over Yanks
    Gunnar Henderson went 1-for-3 with a leadoff home run in Monday’s game against the Yankees.

    Advice: Henderson got the O’s on the board early in the first frame with a solo shot that was 112.3 MPH off the bat, making it his hardest hit home run this season. It’s the 22-year-old’s 10th home run and third leadoff home run this season. The reigning AL Rookie of the Year has been even better slashing .289/.352/.632 through 28 games in 2024.

  • CJ Abrams blasts two-run homer in win versus MIA
    CJ Abrams went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and two walks in a 7-2 win against the Marlins on Monday.

    Advice: The 23-year-old continues to have a solid season slashing .300/.381/.640 with seven home runs and 16 RBI. His two-run home run came in the third inning as Trevor Rogers left a fastball right down the center of the plate and Abrams did not miss. There was a lot of discussion if Abrams’ 2023 season was a bit of beginner’s luck, but the Nats’ shortstop is showing that last season was not a one-off. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:06 pm

  • Jackson Merrill not in lineup Monday vs. Reds
    Jackson Merrill is not in the starting lineup for Monday’s game against the Reds.

    Advice: Merrill returned to the lineup from his groin injury on Saturday and also played Sunday, so this appears to be a day of maintenance for the 21-year-old. Jose Azocar will play center and hit eighth Monday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:52 pm
     
  • J.P. Crawford (oblique) taking grounders Monday
    J.P. Crawford (oblique) is taking grounders before Monday’s game against Atlanta.

    Advice: Crawford is expected to miss 2-3 weeks with his oblique injury, but it’s a positive development that the 29-year-old is taking part in infield practice before Monday’s game. It’s very likely that Crawford will need a rehab assignment before returning to the Seattle lineup late in May. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:25 pm
