  • Turner accounts for one of two Blue Jays’ hits
    Justin Turner went 1-for-3 with a double in the Blue Jays’ loss to the White Sox.

    Advice: Turner ended a seven-game hitless streak in this one, but he and the Jays struggled to get the offense going. Toronto managed just two hits and a walk on the evening while striking out nine times as a team. Turner, who hit .300 through the first month of the season, is hitting a dismal .085 in the month of May, going 4-for-47 at the plate. As is the case with many in this lineup, Turner is nearly impossible to trust in fantasy lineups until he can kick this slump. Rotoworld 8 minutes ago

  • Mark Vientos has two hits, HR in loss to Guardians
    Mark Vientos went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in a loss to the Guardians on Tuesday.

    Advice: Vientos got a rare start against a right-handed pitcher and delivered a double and a home run on the night. The home run was admittedly on a hanging breaking ball that just sat at the top of the zone, but Vientos still crushed it 430 feet at 111 mph off the bat. He followed that up in the next inning with a 106.5 mph double, which gave him the two hardest-hit balls of the night. With Brett Baty struggling, there’s a chance that Vientos will have an opportunity to claim the starting third base role in New York, so he deserves to be added while he’s swinging the bat like this.

  • Jon Gray exits Tuesday start with groin tightness
    Jon Gray was removed from Tuesday’s start against the Phillies with right groin tightness.

    Advice: That explains why Gray was finished after just 75 pitches (50 strikes) over five frames in an abbreviated outing. Rotoworld 10 minutes ago

  • Exits start with groin tightness
    Manager Bruce Bochy said Tuesday that Gray was removed from his start against the Phillies due to right groin tightness, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Gray was able to get through five innings before exiting his start, allowing two earned runs on four hits and three walks while striking out four batters. Bochy didn't specify how severe Gray's injury is, so it remains unclear if the right-hander is at risk of missing his next start -- tentatively scheduled for Sunday in Minnesota.

  • Adrian Houser hit hard in loss to Guardians
    Adrian Houser allowed six runs on six hits in five innings in a loss to the Guardians on Tuesday.

    Advice: Houser struck out four and walked one on the night. He posted a 24 percent whiff rate and 26 percent CSW on the night and showed off some improved velocity, throwing 2.3 mph faster on his sinker and 2.7 mph faster on his slider. Despite allowing six hits, he only allowed four hard-hit baseballs on the day; it just so happened that all of them went for extra bases. Houser is now sporting a 7.88 ERA on the season and should the Mets continue to keep him in the rotation over Jose Butto, he’ll get the Dodgers in his next start. You don’t want any part of that.

  • Kikuchi lacks run support in loss to White Sox
    Yusei Kikuchi allowed two earned runs over six innings in the Blue Jays’ loss to the White Sox.

    Advice: Kikuchi was fine for much of the evening but gave up a two-RBI single to Corey Julks in the fifth inning, which looked like a devastating blow to a Blue Jays offense that managed just two hits on the night. Kikuchi’s record sits at 2-3 on the year despite a solid 2.64 ERA. The Jays entered the day as one of the worst run-scoring offenses in the league, making wins hard to come by for Kikuchi, who has yet to earn a win in May despite allowing just six earned runs over 24 1/3 innings on the month. He’ll have one more chance to get a win in May when he makes the start against the Tigers on Sunday. Rotoworld 14 minutes ago
  • Homer, three RBI in win
    Ramirez went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and an RBI double in Tuesday's 7-6 win over the Mets.

    Advice: Ramirez extended Cleveland's lead to 3-0 in the third inning with a two-out double before cranking a two-run homer off Adrian Houser in the fifth, his 12th of the year. The 31-year-old Ramirez has gone 12-for-32 (.375) with three home runs and 13 RBI in his last eight contests. His slash line is up to .258/.305/.495 with 44 RBI, 31 runs scored and seven stolen bases through 210 plate appearances this season. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago
  • Corey Julks tallies one steal, two RBI vs. Jays
    Corey Julks went 1-for-3 with two RBI and a steal in Tuesday’s win over the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Julks laced a two-RBI single in the fifth inning off Yusei Kikuchi to give the White Sox a 3-0 lead, and has now hit safely in three of his first four games this season. Julks was called up from Triple-A Charlotte last week after the White Sox acquired him in a trade just days before. Julks has now homered and driven in three runs, and should continue getting opportunities as long as he stays hot. Rotoworld 15 minutes ago
