  • Swats 10th homer
    Neto went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Monday's 5-3 win against Milwaukee.

    Advice: Neto provided what turned out to be the winning margin with his two-run shot in the fourth inning. The long ball was his 10th of the season through 260 plate appearances, one more than he hit across 329 plate appearances as a rookie last year. Three of Neto's homers have come over his past six games, and he's produced seven RBI while batting .318 over that span. Rotowire.com Today, 12:18 am

  • Zach Neto homers to propel Angels past Brewers
    Zach Neto hit a two-run homer Monday to lead the Angels to a 5-3 win over the Brewers.

    Advice: Angels manager Ron Washington has utterly refused to hit Neto in the top half of the order, but the 23-year-old has been one of the team’s best players in batting .249/.297/.440 with 10 homers in 260 plate appearances. He’s not yet a finished product and it’s possible he’ll struggle to reach his true potential while playing for one of MLB’s most dysfunctional franchises, but the sky really is the limit here.

  • Ready for live at-bats
    Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Sunday that Edman (wrist) is expected to report to the rookie-level Florida Complex League or Single-A Palm Beach this week to take some at-bats and get in some defensive reps, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Mamol didn't explicitly say that Edman will begin a formal rehab assignment, so the 29-year-old may just be participating in simulated games this week at the Cardinals' spring facility in Florida. In any case, the activity marks another important step in the recovery process for Edman, who has been out all season while he ramps back up from October wrist surgery. Edman won a Gold Glove at second base in 2021 and logged 46 starts at shortstop in 2023, but the outfield might represent his clearest path to consistent playing time once he returns from the 60-day injured list.

  • Goes deep in win
    Neto went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Friday's 8-6 win over the Giants.

    Advice: The shortstop has three homers and 10 RBI over 12 contests in June, going 10-for-43 (.233) this month. Neto may not be making consistent contact, but the increased power is a positive nonetheless. He's maintained a .250/.298/.435 slash line with nine homers, 28 RBI, 26 runs scored, eight stolen base and 16 doubles through 67 contests this season. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:03 pm

  • Three hits in win
    Neto went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double, one additional RBI and two total runs scored in Wednesday's 8-3 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Neto hit a solo shot in the second inning and an RBI double in the sixth for his second multi-hit effort in June. The shortstop has gone 8-for-35 (.229) this month, though five of those hits have gone for extra bases, and he's added eight RBI over 10 contests. For the season, he's at a .250/.300/.424 slash line with eight homers, 26 RBI, 24 runs scored, eight stolen bases and 15 doubles through 240 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:19 pm

  • Zach Neto collects three hits, homers in win
    Zach Neto went 3-for-5 with a solo homer, two runs scored, and two RBI to lead the Angels to an 8-3 win over the Diamondbacks on Wednesday.

    Advice: Neto led off the second inning with a solo homer off Slade Cecconi. He later knocked a base hit to lead off the fourth and scored on a home run by Jo Adell. Neto drove in another run in the sixth on a double that nearly left the field for a second homer. The 23-year-old shortstop is slashing a solid .250/.300/.424 with eight homers, 26 RBI, and eight steals across 240 plate appearances. Rotoworld Wednesday, 9:34 pm

  • Taking on-field BP
    Edman (wrist) will take batting practice on the field at Busch Stadium on Tuesday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

    Advice: The switch-hitting Edman was recently cleared to hit from both sides of the plate and will now progress to taking on-field BP for the first time since last October's right wrist surgery. Edman's progress from the operation has been slow and involved numerous starts and stops, but he's been trending in a positive direction for the last few weeks and he might not be far off from a rehab assignment.

  • Tommy Edman (wrist) takes on-field batting practice
    Tommy Edman (wrist) progressed to taking on-field batting practice on Tuesday for the first time since offseason wrist surgery.

    Advice: The big question for fantasy managers is when will Edman be ready for a minor league rehab assignment? The 29-year-old switch-hitting center fielder has progressed to hitting from both sides of the plate and doesn’t appear far off from getting into minor league contests. Rotoworld Tuesday, 1:30 pm
