    • Picks up seventh win
      King (7-5) picked up the win Thursday, allowing one run on four hits and two walks against the Rangers. He struck out five.

      Advice: King held the Rangers scoreless through five, then was removed after allowing two batters to reach base with one out in the sixth, eventually resulting in one earned run on his ledger. It's the sixth time in his last eight starts that King has allowed one earned run or fewer and his 10th such outing this season. Over his last eight starts, King has tossed 44 innings with a 2.45 ERA and 53 strikeouts. His next opportunity to toe the rubber is scheduled to come at home against the Mariners next week.

    • Fares well in no-decision
      Miller allowed two runs on eight hits and a walk while striking out six over 5.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Orioles on Thursday.

      Advice: He gave up a two-run home run to Gunnar Henderson in the third inning, but Miller was able to limit the damage there. While he came an out shy of a quality start for the second time in four outings, Miller put in a decent performance to avoid a third straight loss. The right-hander is at a 3.84 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 97:29 K:BB over 103 innings across 18 starts. He's projected for a road outing in San Diego in his next start. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:39 pm
       
    • Steals base, scores three runs
      Suzuki went 2-for-3 with two walks, three runs and a stolen base Thursday against the Phillies.

      Advice: Suzuki entered the game having struck out 12 times against just one walk in 25 plate appearances over his previous six games, but he reached base four times on two hits and a couple of walks Thursday, leading to a season-high three runs scored. It was just the fourth time this season Suzuki drew multiple free passes in a game. He also recorded his eighth stolen base of the season in 10 tries, leaving him just one shy of a career high.

    • Gunnar Henderson crushes 27th homer in Oā€™s loss
      Gunnar Henderson went 3-for-5 with a two-run homer on Thursday in the Oriolesā€™ loss to the Mariners.

      Advice: Henderson was a triple shy of hitting for the cycle by the fifth inning of this one as he continues to build a credible American League MVP Award resume heading towards his first All-Star Game appearance in a few weeks. The 23-year-old emerging franchise cornerstone took Mariners starter Bryce Miller deep in the third inning for his 27th round-tripper of the season and finished with his ninth three-hit performance of the first half. Heā€™s batting an absurd .344 (42-for-122) with nine homers and six steals over his last 30 games. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:07 pm

    • Mitch Garver goes deep Thursday in return to lineup
      Mitch Garver blasted a two-run homer on Thursday against the Orioles in his return to the lineup.

      Advice: Weā€™re going to safely assume that Garverā€™s right wrist is feeling better after watching him sock a no-doubter to left-center field off Orioles reliever Keegan Akin in the seventh inning of this one. It was his 11th big fly of the season and third time heā€™s gone deep in eight games since June 24. The 33-year-old veteran backstop was back in Seattleā€™s lineup at designated hitter on Thursday after missing a pair of games earlier this week due to a right wrist contusion that he suffered when he was hit by a pitch last weekend. It doesnā€™t look like a massive concern anymore. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:04 pm

    • Bryce Miller lasts 5 2/3 frames in no-decision
      Bryce Miller allowed two runs over 5 2/3 innings on Thursday in a no-decision against the Orioles.

      Advice: Miller surrendered eight hits, including a two-run homer to Orioles superstar Gunnar Henderson, which accounted for all of the damage against him in a low-scoring showdown at T-Mobile Park. He finished with six strikeouts and only handed out one free pass. Heā€™ll bring a respectable 3.84 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 97/29 K/BB ratio across 103 innings (18 starts) into a road tilt on Wednesday against the Padres in his final outing prior to the All-Star break.

    • Sitting down Thursday
      Smith isn't in the Dodgers' lineup for Thursday's game against the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Smith went 0-for-3 with a walk and a run scored during Wednesday's loss, and he'll get a breather for Thursday's rubber match. Austin Barnes will start at catcher instead and bat ninth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:07 pm

    • Wyatt Langford puts on a show in losing effort
      Wyatt Langford delivered an RBI single on Thursday in the Rangersā€™ loss to the Padres.

      Advice: Langford made a pair of unbelievable highlight-reel worthy defensive plays and was responsible for plating the Rangersā€™ lone run of the contest with a run-scoring single off Padres starter Michael King in the sixth inning. The 22-year-old top prospect has been excellent over the last few weeks, batting .303 (33-for-109) with three homers and six steals over his last 30 games. Heā€™s yet another textbook example of why fantasy managers should exercise patience with talented top prospects, even if they struggle initially upon reaching the majors.

    • Michael King shuts down Rangers over 5 1/3 in win
      Michael King struck out five and allowed one run over 5 1/3 innings on Thursday in a win over the Rangers.

      Advice: King generated 13 swinging strikes, although just a pair of them came on his four-seam fastball, as he finished with a robust 34 percent CSW. A sixth-inning single from Wyatt Langford was responsible for the lone tally against him in a low-scoring pitcherā€™s duel at Globe Life Field. The 29-year-old former reliever will bring a strong 3.51 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 120/41 K/BB ratio across 105 innings (19 appearances, 18 starts) into a home outing on Wednesday against the Mariners in his final outing prior to the Midsummer Classic.
