  • Logan O’Hoppe has four hits in win
    Logan O’Hoppe went 4-for-5 with two RBI in a win over the Pirates on Tuesday.

    Advice: All four of O’Hoppe’s hits were singles and only one of them was hit harder than 95 mph, but the 24-year-old won’t be complaining. The catcher was a popular breakout candidate this season and while he hasn’t set the world on fire, his .279/.330/.404 triple slash is solid from the catcher position. He’s not going to get too many RBI opportunities in a depleted lineup, but his 13 on the season is better than nothing. Rotoworld Tuesday, 7:05 pm
