  • Pops third homer
    Torrens went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Sunday's win over the Padres.

    Advice: Facing the team he made his big-league debut with back in 2017, Torrens took Jeremiah Estrada deep in the eighth inning. The 28-year-old catcher has started his Mets tenure off with a bang, batting .318 (7-for-22) in his first eight games for the club with three homers, but he remains firmly in the backup role behind Francisco Alvarez.

  • Timely knock in rare start
    McCann went 1-for-4 with an RBI single during a loss to the Twins in the first game of a doubleheader Sunday.

    Advice: The rookie backstop drew a rare start and was able to tack on the final run of the matinee game for the Athletics with his ninth-inning single. McCann boasts an impressive .278/.358/.444 slash line across his first 81 career plate appearances, but Shea Langeliers has been an iron man behind the dish and is garnering the bulk of playing time at McCann's expense.

  • Could be activated June 24
    Contreras (forearm) could be activated from the 10-day injured list as soon as next Monday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Contreras will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday and might require less than a week of rehab games before rejoining the Cardinals lineup. Woo cautions that the catcher's timeline for rejoining the big club remains tentative, and a firmer return date may not come into focus until Contreras gets a few rehab games under his belt.

  • Willson Contreras (forearm) starts rehab assignment
    Willson Contreras (forearm) will begin a minor league rehab assignment on Tuesday with Triple-A Memphis.

    Advice: Contreras has been cleared to return to game action and is targeting a return to St. Louis before the end of the month. The 32-year-old backstop has made a rapid recovery from surgery last month to repair a fractured left forearm. There’s a chance he’s back by the start of next week. Rotoworld Today, 8:27 am
     
  • Drives in three
    Delay went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and three RBI in Sunday's 8-2 win over the Rockies.

    Advice: Delay drew his first start since being recalled Saturday and delivered a key three-RBI double in the sixth inning to put the Pirates up 6-0. He's likely to remain the backup catcher behind Yasmani Grandal while Henry Davis (concussion) is sidelined, but Delay could push for more regular at-bats with Grandal performing poorly.

  • Extends hit streak to nine games
    Wong went 2-for-4 with a walk, a triple and three RBI in Sunday's 9-3 win over the Yankees.

    Advice: Wong delivered a two-run triple in the seventh inning then singled in a run an inning later. The catcher upped his hit streak to nine games, during which he's 12-for-31 (.387) with six walks, six RBI, one steal and four runs scored. Rotowire.com Today, 7:15 am
     
  • Goes deep Sunday
    Rutschman went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Phillies.

    Advice: Rutschman entered Sunday just 1-for-17 over his last five games, an unusual slump for the catcher. He took Zack Wheeler deep in the third inning to extend the Orioles' lead to 4-0, and that was ultimately all they needed in the win. Rutschman is up to a .289/.333/.473 slash line with 14 homers, 53 RBI, 36 runs scored, one stolen base and nine doubles through 67 contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:46 pm
     
  • Provides offense in win
    Pages went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Cubs.

    Advice: Pages has homered in two of his last three games, and his second-inning blast was all the run support Miles Mikolas needed in Sunday's win. It's been a challenging first season for Pages, who has a .132/.239/.316 slash line over 46 plate appearances, but he's received more playing time this week at the expense of Ivan Herrera.

  • Slugs eighth homer
    Trevino went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 9-3 loss to the Red Sox.

    Advice: Trevino is tapping into his power lately with three homers over the last five games. The catcher is up to eight long balls on the year while slashing a strong .271/.317/.451 through 47 contests. He's added 25 RBI and 19 runs scored, but he hasn't hit a double or stolen a base all year. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:27 pm
