  • Anthony Volpe extends on-base streak to 30 games
    Anthony Volpe singled on Tuesday in the Yankees’ win over the Twins, extending his on-base streak to 30 consecutive games.

    Advice: Volpe extended his on-base streak, which is tied with teammate Aaron Judge for the longest in baseball this season, by slicing a third-inning single into shallow right field before racing around the bases to score on Judge’s two-run double later in the frame. Rotoworld 25 minutes ago

  • Bobby Witt Jr homers twice in loss
    Bobby Witt Jr. went 3-for-5 with two home runs and four RBI in a loss to the Guardians on Tuesday.

    Advice: Witt smacked both long balls off of Triston McKenzie, hitting a 434-foot shot in the third inning and then a massive 454-foot bomb in the fourth inning. He now has 11 home runs on the year to go along with 46 RBI and a .319/.371/.565 slash line. With the injury to Ronald Acuna Jr. and the struggles of Julio Rodriguez, Bobby Witt Jr. is setting up to be the number-one pick in fantasy leagues next year. Rotoworld 39 minutes ago
     
  • Tyler Freeman homers in win over Royals
    Tyler Freeman went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in a win over the Royals on Tuesday.

    Advice: Freeman greeted Seth Lugo in the sixth inning with a 402-foot shot that left the bat at 102.3 mph. It was his fifth home run on the season, and now has 24 RBI to go along with a .219/.308/.358 slash line. Freeman has been trending up in recent weeks but with the renewed health fo Steven Kwan and Andres Gimenez, Freeman has moved back down to the bottom third of the lineup, which will limit his opportunities for runs and RBI.

  • Returning to action Tuesday
    Estrada (thumb) is starting at second base and batting second Tuesday against the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Estrada sat out the previous three games with a jammed thumb but is ready to take the field Tuesday in Arizona. The 28-year-old finished May on a modest four-game hit streak and went 7-for-17 with a double, an RBI and a run during that span. Rotowire.com Today, 3:42 pm
     
  • Rejoining lineup Tuesday
    Arraez (shoulder/neck) is batting leadoff as the designated hitter Tuesday against the Angels.

    Advice: The 27-year-old sat out Monday's contest due to the shoulder/neck injury he suffered on a slide Sunday, and he'll be eased back into the lineup Tuesday in a non-defensive capacity. Arraez is in the midst of an eight-game hit streak, during which he's batting .375 with no extra-base hits, five RBI and five runs. Rotowire.com Today, 3:38 pm

  • Out of lineup Tuesday
    Urshela is not in the Tigers' lineup Tuesday versus the Rangers.

    Advice: Urshela has six hits in the five games since he was last not in the lineup. A couple of those six hits cleared the wall for home runs, his first two of the season. Mark Canha will start at first for Urshela on Tuesday and Justyn-Henry Malloy will start as the DH. Rotowire.com Today, 3:29 pm

  • Sitting on bench Tuesday
    Baez is not in the Tigers' lineup Tuesday versus the Rangers.

    Advice: In the last 10 games, Baez has just four hits across 37 at-bats which equates to a .108 batting average in that span. Amidst the slump, the shortstop will take a seat with Zach McKinstry starting in his place, batting sixth Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 3:18 pm
