  • Six-game hitting streak
    Paredes went 2-for-5 with two RBI and two runs scored Tuesday against the Marlins.

    Advice: Paredes delivered a two-RBI single in the fifth inning and came around to score in the same frame. He extended his hitting streak to six games with the performance, driving in five and scoring four runs in that span. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:47 pm
     
  • Josh Rojas goes 3-for-5 in Mariners’ victory
    Josh Rojas finished 3-for-5 with a double and an RBI versus the A’s on Tuesday.

    Advice: It’s the first three-hit game for Rojas since May 5, when he raised his average to .360. He’s hit just .229/.275/.282 in 85 plate appearances since that date, but it’s been enough to keep him starting against righties for now. The Mariners could reevaluate that after Jorge Polanco returns. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:25 pm
     
  • Keeps surging Tuesday
    Gorman went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 8-5 loss to the Astros.

    Advice: Gorman has upped the power over the last week with six homers and 10 RBI over his last seven contests. That's still come with a swing-and-miss risk, as he's struck out 10 times in that span, but that's of little concern when he's making the most of whatever contact he gets. The second baseman is up to 14 homers, 31 RBI, 28 runs scored, two stolen bases, eight doubles and a .235/.320/.508 slash line through 206 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:10 pm
     
  • Manny Machado goes 3-for-4, knocks in run
    Manny Machado went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a steal versus the Angels on Tuesday.

    Advice: Machado has collected hits in 12 of 13 games, and his batted ball numbers have started to creep up as well. There’s nothing so far to suggest he’s about to go on a tear, but things are looking up. He’s currently at .251/.315/.379 for the year. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:52 pm
     
  • Lifts first homer of campaign
    Sosa went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Tuesday's 7-6 loss to the Cubs.

    Advice: Sosa was able to check off his first multi-hit game and his first homer of the season in the same contest. He's gone 4-for-10 with a walk and two strikeouts over four games since he was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte. Sosa is slashing .188/.235/.292 with three RBI, three runs scored and two doubles over 52 plate appearances in the majors this season. He's started three straight games at third base and will likely only need to outplay Danny Mendick to stick at the hot corner in the near term. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:44 pm
     
  • Delivers off bench Tuesday
    Wisdom went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 7-6 win over the White Sox.

    Advice: Wisdom provided a game-tying blast as a pinch hitter in the sixth inning after replacing Michael Busch. Over his previous 15 games, Wisdom had gone just 4-for-31 (.129) with two doubles, three RBI and 11 strikeouts. He's now slashing .230/.304/.475 with three homers, 11 RBI, seven runs scored and three stolen bases over 69 plate appearances this season. Wisdom's slump during May didn't help his cause to see more than a short-side platoon role, primarily at first base with Busch. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:30 pm

  • Slugs 10th homer
    De La Cruz went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Rockies.

    Advice: De La Cruz snapped a 21-game homer drought with his third-inning blast, which was his 10th long ball of the year. During the power outage, he hit just .169 with four doubles, though he still managed to pick up seven stolen bases. The speedy infielder's slump has dropped his season slash line to .233/.329/.426 with 26 RBI and 39 runs scored over 61 contests, but he also leads the majors by a wide margin with 32 steals.

  • X-rays on hand negative
    X-rays on Bregman's left hand came back negative after he was hit by a pitch during Tuesday's win over the Cardinals, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Bregman took a 93-mph sinker off his hand during the first inning of Tuesday's contest, but he was able to shake it off and remain in the game, going 1-for-3 with three runs scored. Precautionary X-rays confirmed the All-Star third baseman isn't dealing with any serious damage, but there is still a chance he sits out Wednesday's series finale in order to avoid playing with any lingering hand soreness.

  • Alex Bregman day-to-day with bruised hand
    Alex Bregman had X-rays on his hand that came back negative after he was hit by a pitch during Tuesday’s game.

    Advice: Bregman is day-to-day. If he can’t go on Wednesday, Mauricio Dubón will likely start at third base. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:51 pm
