  • Reaches four times in win
    Wade went 1-for-2 with three walks and two RBI in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Rockies.

    Advice: Wade reached base four times and produced a key two-run single in the fourth to extend the Giants' lead to 4-0. Wade strictly operates in a platoon against right-handed pitching, though if he had enough plate appearances to qualify, he'd be leading the majors with a .485 OBP and 21.4 percent walk rate. He's now reached safely in eight straight games and is slashing .351/.485/.442 with a homer, 10 RBI, 12 runs and a 21:26 BB:K in 101 plate appearances. Rotowire.com 9 minutes ago
     
  • Three hits Tuesday
    Lee went 3-for-5 with a run scored in Tuesday's win over the Rockies.

    Advice: Lee tallied the first three-hit game of his MLB career Tuesday and now leads all rookies with 37 hits on the year, though only five of those have gone for extra bases. Lee is now slashing .264/.314/.329 with two homers, seven RBI, 14 runs and a 10:13 BB:K in 153 plate appearances. Rotowire.com 16 minutes ago
     
  • Sitting out multiple games possible
    Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Tuesday that the team has considered sitting Goldschmidt for a few games as the first baseman works on his swing, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

    Advice: It doesn't sound like anything has been decided on Goldschmidt, with Marmol noting the club is "evaluating everything in order to get him right." In six games so far in May, Goldschmidt is 0-for-23 with a 10:3 K:BB. He's slashing just .196/.287/.263 on the season with a 30.9 percent strikeout rate. If the Cards do elect to give Goldschmidt a little break, Alec Burleson would likely handle first base. Rotowire.com 52 minutes ago
     
  • Logs two hits in loss
    Duran went 2-for-5 with a double and a triple in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to Atlanta.

    Advice: Duran's line Tuesday was similar to his previous game Sunday, when he logged a double and triple in a win over the Twins, only he didn't score against Atlanta. That's partially due to Boston's woeful 1-for-14 with runners in scoring position (13 LOB). Duran's done a good job of not letting any slumps linger -- the bane of his first two seasons in the majors -- and is batting .267/.339/.420 over 168 plate appearances. Tuesday's triple, his sixth, vaulted him to the top of MLB. Rotowire.com Today, 5:20 am
     
  • On base four times in win
    Lowe went 2-for-4 with two walks, a double, two RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 15-8 win over Oakland.

    Advice: Lowe, who has yet to have a day off since returning from an oblique injury in mid-April, has reached base safely 15 times in 16 games. The first baseman leads the team with a .429 on-base percentage and possesses a career-high walk rate of 15.7 percent. Rotowire.com Today, 5:05 am
     
  • Four-hit night
    Heim went 4-for-4 with two RBI and three runs scored in Tuesday's 15-8 win over Oakland.

    Advice: Heim extended a hit streak to five games, during which he's 10-for-17 with four walks, four RBI and eight runs scored. The catcher ranks third on the team with 22 RBI and fifth in runs (16) over 31 contests. With a doubleheader coming up Wednesday, Heim will likely sit out the matinee.

  • Connects on first homer of year
    Lux went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Marlins.

    Advice: Lux sent one out off of George Soriano in the third for his first home run since Aug. 15, 2022. Lux has been seeing the ball better as of late despite owning just a .191 batting average. He has eight hits, five RBI and five runs over his last eight games. It's been a long road back to the playing field for Lux and he seems to be gaining some traction at the plate. For the year, he's slashing .191/.258/.247 with seven RBI, 14 runs and an 8:22 BB:K in 97 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 4:50 am

  • Mashes grand slam in win
    Muncy went 2-for-4 with a grand slam and two runs scored in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Marlins.

    Advice: Muncy quickly put the Dodgers ahead with a first-inning grand slam off of Edward Cabrera. It was his sixth career grand slam and fourth home run in his last three games, as he now has eight RBI over that span. Muncy is currently hitting .263, which is well above his career average, and overall is slashing .263/.370/.570 with nine homers, 26 RBI, 22 runs and a 19:40 BB:K in 138 plate appearances.

  • Launches homer in loss
    Stephenson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Stephenson's ninth-inning home run was way too late for the Reds, which logged just three hits and lost its sixth consecutive contest. Cincinnati's middle-of-the-order bats have not produced of late, which has prompted manager David Bell to move Stephenson to cleanup in the three starts since he returned from a hand injury last week.
