  • Aaron Judge kicks off June with 464-foot home run
    Aaron Judge clobbered a 464-foot two-run homer on Saturday, powering the Yankees to a 7-3 victory over the Giants.

    Advice: Judge took Giants ace Logan Webb deep to left-center field in the opening frame for his major league-leading 21st round-tripper of the season. The 32-year-old fantasy superstar became the first hitter this year to reach the 20-homer plateau with a two-home outburst during Friday’s series opener at spacious Oracle Park, finishing the month of May with an astronomical .361/.479/.918 triple-slash line with 14 homers and 27 RBI across 28 games. The Southern California native is clearly enjoying his time back in the Bay Area and finds himself in the midst of one of the hottest stretches of his career with eight homers over his last 10 games since May 22.

  • Picks up pair of thefts in win
    Crow-Armstrong went 1-for-3 with a walk and two stolen bases Saturday in a 7-5 win against the Reds.

    Advice: Crow-Armstrong made the most of his two trips on the basepaths by swiping a bag in each instance. This was his third game since being recalled from the minors Thursday. While Crow-Armstrong has posted a modest .250/.310/.359 slash line with just one homer over 26 contests in the majors this year, he's shown off his speed with seven steals in seven attempts.

  • Contributes grand slam in victory
    Suzuki went 2-for-4 with a grand slam and a triple in Saturday's 7-5 win against Cincinnati.

    Advice: The Cubs fell behind by four runs early but tied the game with one stroke of the bat on Suzuki's second-inning grand slam. It was his first career grand slam and sixth homer of the campaign. Suzuki has hit safely in nine straight games and is batting .324 (12-for-37) with two homers, seven RBI and a stolen base during that span. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:26 pm
     
  • Productive in high-scoring victory
    Cameron went 2-for-5 with a two-run double and a stolen base in a win over Atlanta on Saturday.

    Advice: Cameron opened the scoring on what would be a prolific afternoon for both teams with a first-inning double that plated Shea Langeliers and Miguel Andujar. Cameron would go on to record his first steal of the season as well, and the two-hit day snapped a 1-for-11 funk that had encompassed his previous three games. The 27-year-old boosted his average 50 points to .238 with his second multi-hit tally of the campaign, and the double served as his first extra-base hit since he'd homered in his season debut May 23.

  • Racks up three hits
    Pages went 3-for-4 with two runs scored in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Rockies.

    Advice: Pages is starting to get things figured out in the majors with three multi-hit efforts over his last four games. That surge has gotten the rookie outfielder back up to a .257 batting average, though his .685 OPS on the year remains middling. He's added five home runs, 17 RBI, 24 runs scored and a stolen base over 40 contests. Pages continues to see a starting role in center field. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:08 pm
     
  • Perfect at plate in win
    Schuemann went 4-for-4 with an RBI single, a double and three runs in a win over Atlanta on Saturday.

    Advice: The rookie shortstop was a thorn in the side of Atlanta pitching all night, putting together a stellar night out of the bottom of the order. Schuemann gave his average a 28-point boost to .266 with the multi-hit effort, his third in the last eight contests. He's also scored at least one run in five consecutive games, and his prolific performance Saturday also included his first game over the last eight without a strikeout.

  • Plates four in high-scoring win
    Rooker went 2-for-5 with a two-run double and a two-run home run in a win over Atlanta on Saturday.

    Advice: Rooker extended the Athletics' lead to 8-3 with his 421-foot blast in the fourth inning with Max Schuemann aboard, and he then erased a 9-8 deficit in the sixth by bringing home Miguel Andujar and Schuemann with a timely two-bagger. The pair of extra-base hits pushed Rooker's total in that category to 24 (out of 49 total hits), and he's now reached safely in 12 straight games while getting on at a stellar .388 clip in that span.

  • Hits fifth homer
    Raley went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run and a walk against the Angels in Saturday's 9-0 victory.

    Advice: Raley built Seattle's lead to six runs with his solo shot in the sixth inning. He recently dealt with a lat injury, but the issue turned out to be minor, as Raley has started each of the Mariners' past two games. He's struggled of late, however, going 3-for-26 over his past nine contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:56 pm
