  • 26-38-6 10th Place
    • On base four times in win
      Wong went 2-for-4 with a walk, two RBI and three runs scored in Thursday's 14-2 win over the White Sox. He was also hit by a pitch.

      Advice: Wong, who is enjoying a breakout campaign, raised his batting average to .327 and OBP to .382. Those career-best marks are heavily influenced by a .387 BABIP, making the backstop a strong sell-high candidate. Per MLB's Statcast, Wong's expected batting average is only .255.

    • Homers in third straight contest
      Diaz went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Cardinals.

      Advice: Diaz got Houston on the board in the bottom of the fifth inning, smacking a solo shot off Miles Mikolas the opposite way to cut the Astros deficit to 3-1. It's the third straight game with a home run for Diaz, who's up to six long balls on the season. The 25-year-old backstop is now slashing .250/.278/.397 with 29 RBI and 21 runs scored across 216 plate appearances this year. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:18 am

    • Yainer Diaz homers in third straight game vs. Cards
      Yainer Diaz belted a solo homer on Wednesday in the Astros’ loss to the Cardinals.

      Advice: Diaz might want to consider relocating to the NL Central after homering for the third consecutive game on Wednesday afternoon against the Cardinals. The 25-year-old slugging backstop had just three round-trippers over 52 games to open the year, but has doubled his season total in just three contests since June 3. Rotoworld Wednesday, 1:31 pm

    • Rest day Wednesday
      Wong is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

      Advice: The Red Sox are playing a day game Wednesday after losing to Atlanta on Tuesday night, so Wong will be getting a maintenance day. Reese McGuire will pick up the start at catcher while Wong rests. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:33 am
       
    • Smacks fifth homer
      Diaz went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Tuesday's 8-5 win over the Cardinals.

      Advice: Diaz's third-inning blast gave the Astros a 6-1 lead, which was ultimately enough for the win. The catcher sat out the first two games of June, and he's responded with homers in back-to-back contests after going 39 contests without a long ball. He's up to five homers, 28 RBI, 20 runs scored, 10 doubles and a .249/.277/.383 slash line through 213 plate appearances this season. With his bat coming around, Diaz should be able to maintain a starting role at catcher over Victor Caratini. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 9:55 pm

    • Yainer Diaz homers, drives in three vs. Cardinals
      Yainer Diaz went 1-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Tuesday’s win over the Cardinals.

      Advice: Diaz put the exclamation point on a four-run third for the Astros when he sent a 367-foot shot to deep right field to put the Astros up 6-1. The homer marked Diaz’s fifth of the season, as he’s now homered in back-to-back games while driving in five runs over that span. Diaz’s three-RBI performance upped his RBI total to 28 on the season, which is good for fourth-most on the team this season. Rotoworld Tuesday, 8:56 pm

    • Sitting again Sunday
      Wong is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

      Advice: Wong is on the bench for the second day in a row, but the Red Sox haven't indicated that their top backstop is dealing with any sort of injury or illness. Reese McGuire will get another turn behind the dish Sunday at Wong's expense. Rotowire.com Sunday, 9:58 am
       
    • Sitting in second straight game
      Diaz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

      Advice: Diaz will give way to Victor Caratini behind the plate for the second day in a row while he's in the midst of a prolonged slump at the plate. Dating back to May 1, Diaz is slashing .200/.213/.259 over a stretch of 25 games. Given that he's valued mainly for his contributions at the plate rather than as a pitch framer and game caller, Diaz's lengthy dry spell with the bat looks to be costing him playing time. The Astros have already pulled back on using Diaz as a designated hitter on days he doesn't catch; he started seven games at DH between March and April, but he hasn't made a start as the DH since May 17.

    • Getting breather Saturday
      Diaz is not in the starting lineup Saturday versus the Twins.

      Advice: Diaz will get a day off after he went 0-for-3 in Friday's 6-1 loss to Minnesota. Victor Caratini will handle the catching duties while batting ninth. Rotowire.com Saturday, 9:11 am
