  • Hitting in batting cage
    Drury (hamstring) will hit in the batting cage Monday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

    Advice: Drury is ready to begin reincorporating baseball activities as he works his way back from a left hamstring strain. Running will certainly be a bigger test than hitting, though, and it's not clear when he might be ready to do that. Rotowire.com Monday, 1:52 pm

  • Ryan McMahon homers in loss to Giants
    Ryan McMahon went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the Giants on Sunday.

    Advice: McMahon took Jordan Hicks deep with a 377-foot shot that left the bat at 103.5 mph. He also added a 110 mph groundout and struck the ball well on Sunday. He now has seven home runs and 25 RBI on the season to go along with a .306/.387/.486 tripe slash. He’s been the best hitter on the Rockies and will continue to have underrated fantasy value while hitting the middle of their lineup. Rotoworld Sunday, 3:46 pm

  • Andrés Giménez homers, walks in win
    Andrés Giménez went 1-for-3 with a home run, walk, two RBI, and two runs scored.

    Advice: It has not been a strong season for Giménez in the power department with just a 2.6 Barrel% entering play on Sunday. The homer was his fourth of the season and he remains a solid fantasy asset with a .277 batting average and seven stolen bases. Rotoworld Sunday, 1:14 pm
     
  • Racks up three more hits
    Gimenez went 3-for-5 with two RBI and one run scored in Saturday's 11-4 win over the Twins.

While he's making steady contact lately, he has just two extra-base hits over his last six contests.

    Gimenez went 2-for-4 with two RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Rangers.

    Advice: Gimenez contributed an RBI single in the second inning and a sacrifice fly in the ninth. He's hit safely in three straight games after going 0-for-15 over the previous four contests. The second baseman is up to a .255/.318/.357 slash line with six steals, two home runs, 23 RBI, 23 runs scored, eight doubles and a triple over 40 contests. While his power is slightly down this year, the rest of his offense is roughly in line with where he was at in 2023. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:00 am
     
  • Goes yard in Tuesday's win
    McMahon went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Padres.

He's now rocking a four-game hit streak with multiple hits in two of those while only striking out once over that span. McMahon has been one of the most consistent hitters in their lineup so far this year, slashing .308/.389/.481 with six homers, 22 RBI, 18 runs and a 22:50 BB:K in 180 plate appearances.
