  • Supplies game-winning home run
    Toro went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Rockies.

    Advice: Toro's bat was silent until the eighth inning when he sent out a home run to right field to give the A's their first lead of the night. He's racked up seven hits over his last five games and leads the majors with 28 hits in the month of May. Since April 26, Toro is slashing .362/.406/.553 with three homers, 10 RBI, 17 runs and a 4:16 BB:K in 101 plate appearances. Rotowire.com 28 minutes ago
     
  • Leaves yard Tuesday
    Davis went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Tuesday's in over the Rockies.

    Advice: Davis got the A's on the board with a solo blast off Cal Quantrill in the third inning. It was his first home run since he had two against the Guardians on March 29 and just his second hit in his last 20 plate appearances since May 11. The 31-year-old has lost out on playing time due to his offensive struggles. He's now slashing .196/.237/.337 with seven extra-base hits, three RBI, 10 runs and a 4:25 BB:K in 97 plate appearances.

  • Colt Keith draws start versus left-hander
    Even though the Tigers are facing a tough lefty in Cole Ragans, Colt Keith is in the lineup for Wednesday’s game versus the Royals.

    Advice: It’s the fourth time this year he’s drawn a start against a lefty. That he’s gone 6-for-8 the last two days certainly helped his cause here. Kerry Carpenter and Wenceel Pérez are taking a seat versus Ragans. Rotoworld 53 minutes ago

  • Goes deep again Tuesday
    McMahon went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's loss to the Athletics.

    Advice: McMahon kicked off the scoring with a two-run blast in the first inning off of Aaron Brooks for his only hit of the evening. He's now upped his hitting streak to nine games and is slashing .378/.310/.676 with three homers, seven RBI and nine runs scored. He's maintained an average north of .300 for the majority of the season thus far and is currently riding a streak of 19 consecutive plate appearances without striking out.

  • Not in lineup
    Senzel is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

    Advice: Senzel went 0-for-5 with a walk in the first two games of the series and will receive a day off for the finale. The Nationals will roll with Ildemaro Vargas at third base against Simeon Woods Richardson and the Twins. Rotowire.com Today, 8:10 am

  • Brett Baty sits against second straight righty
    Brett Baty is out of the lineup against a righty for a second straight game Wednesday against the Guardians.

    Advice: While Baty and Mark Vientos had been platooning, it figured that Vientos would get one start against the Guardians, just because the Mets didn’t want him to sit around doing nothing for four days (three straight righties followed by an off day). Vientos, though, did very well with his start last night, going 2-for-4 with a double and a walk, and he’s getting the nod again in this one. It wouldn’t be much of a surprise to see Baty demoted soon. Rotoworld Today, 7:33 am
     
  • Sitting against right-hander again
    Baty is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Baty is on the bench against a right-handed starting pitcher (Triston McKenzie), likely signaling that he's at least temporarily lost hold of his role as the Mets' preferred third baseman. Though he's drawn positive reviews for his work defensively this season, Baty has failed to take a notable step forward at the plate, as he's posted a .611 OPS through 150 plate appearances. Baty has performed especially poorly over the past three weeks, going just 5-for-40 with 19 strikeouts against three walks across a stretch of 13 games. Mark Vientos looks like he'll get an extended look at the hot corner as the Mets look to bolster their slumping offense. Rotowire.com Today, 7:11 am
     
  • Crosses plate twice in loss
    Rivera went 2-for-4 with a double, two runs scored and an RBI in Tuesday's 7-5 loss to the Brewers.

    Advice: Getting the start at third base and batting seventh against lefty Robert Gasser, Rivera had his first multi-hit performance since May 1 and his first extra-base hit since April 28. The 27-year-old has been back in a short-side platoon role for most of May with Jake Burger healthy, and Rivera's hitting just .240 (6-for-25) on the month with two RBI and five runs.

  • Drawing another start at third base
    Vientos will start at third base and bat sixth in Wednesday's game in Cleveland, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    Advice: Vientos earned another start at the hot corner after homering and doubling in Tuesday's loss to the Guardians. Both starts have come against right-handed pitching, which is notable since he and the left-handed-hitting Brett Baty had been in a strict platoon. Vientos is slashing .360/.407/.720 in eight games with the Mets this season. Rotowire.com Today, 7:08 am
