  • Drives home game-winning runs
    Blackmon went 1-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a run scored in Friday's victory over Texas.

    Advice: Blackmon led the Rockies to victory by driving home two runs via a double in the eighth inning. The 37-year old has collected two RBI in three straight games. Blackmon continues to receive at-bats in a strong-side platoon role while hitting .241/.303/.375 over 122 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 9:25 pm
     
  • Adam Frazier hits go-ahead two-run homer in ninth
    Adam Frazier hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the ninth inning in the Royals’ 2-1 victory over the Angels on Friday.

    Advice: Frazier plays hero with a two-run blast off Carlos Estévez that turned a 1-0 deficit into a 2-1 lead and ultimately a win for the Royals. The 32-year-old veteran isn’t known for his pop, and that was his first homer as a member of the Kansas City roster. Frazier remains an unusable fantasy option, but tonight is one he’ll always remember. Rotoworld Today, 9:18 pm

  • Laces three doubles
    Adames went 3-for-4 with three doubles, two RBI and two runs scored in Friday's victory over St. Louis.

    Advice: Adames managed to collect all three of his doubles from different Cardinals pitchers, hitting one each off Lance Lynn, Matthew Liberatore and Kyle Leahy. With his effort Friday night, the Brewers shortstop reached double-digit two-baggers, sporting 10 doubles on the season. Overall, Adames is hitting .265/.351/.476 with seven home runs, 23 runs scored and 27 RBI over 168 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 9:00 pm
     
  • Luis Campusano homers in victory over Dodgers
    Luis Campusano hit a solo homer in a victory Friday over the Dodgers for the Padres.

    Advice: Campusano got the only hit of the game for the Padres while Tyler Glasnow was in the game, and it was a solo homer to give San Diego a 1-0 lead. The 25-year-old catcher remains a solid — and quite frankly, underrated — catching option, as he’s hit three homers, driven in 23 runs and slashed .283/.323/.442. Rotoworld Today, 8:58 pm
     
  • Charlie Blackmon drives in go-ahead runs vs. TEX
    Charlie Blackmon drove in two runs to help the Rockies to a 4-2 win over the Rangers on Friday.

    Advice: With the score tied at 2-2, Blackmon doubled home Brenton Doyle and Jake Cave to give the Rockies a 4-2 cushion and ultimately the victory. The outfielder also drew a walk to improve an ever-so-mediocre slash to .241/.303/.375 over the first six weeks. Rotoworld Today, 8:05 pm
     
  • Sitting versus left-hander
    Gorman is not in the starting lineup for Friday's contest with the Brewers, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

    Advice: Gorman will take a seat as left-hander Robert Gasser makes his major-league debut on the mound for Milwaukee. Jose Fermin will draw the start at second base in his place and bat leadoff against the Brewers. Rotowire.com Today, 2:21 pm

  • Halts skid, steals two bags in loss
    De La Cruz went 2-for-3 with a walk, an RBI, two steals, a run scored and was caught stealing in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Once again, De La Cruz filled up the box score. His fourth-inning single snapped an 0-for-17 slide, and he later delivered a run as part of the Reds' three-run seventh inning to tie the game at 4-4. His aggressiveness on the bases was also on display as he swiped his 22nd and 23rd bags; however, that aggression may have cost Cincinnati. After leading off the sixth with a walk and a steal, De La Cruz was caught trying to take third base and was not in scoring position when Jake Fraley singled later in the frame. That aggressiveness is something manger David Bell tolerates from De La Cruz, as he told Mark Sheldon of MLB.com. "Right there, he did have more time, but we've also seen him get to third with no outs and lead to a run," Bell said. Rotowire.com Today, 5:34 am
     
  • Continues power surge
    Ramirez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the White Sox on Thursday.

    Advice: Cleveland was held scoreless until Ramirez belted a 409-foot solo shot in the eighth inning. The All-Star third baseman has gone deep three times over his past five games, pushing his total to eight homers on the season. He's slashing just .238/.282/.450 but ranks fifth in the majors with 31 RBI while adding 25 runs and five stolen bases. Rotowire.com Today, 12:02 am
     
  • José Ramírez goes deep in loss to White Sox
    José Ramírez slugged a solo homer on Thursday in the Guardians’ loss to the White Sox.

    Advice: Ramírez and Josh Naylor went deep off veteran reliever John Brebbia in the eighth inning, but it wasn’t enough to spark Cleveland to a late rally at Guaranteed Rate Field. It was his eighth round-tripper of the season and third time he’s left the yard in his last five contests. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:04 pm
