  • Goes yard twice against Yanks
    Vientos went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in Tuesday's 9-7 win over the Yankees.

    Advice: The 24-year-old third baseman wasn't intimidated by the atmosphere in the Subway Series, or by the prospect of facing Gerrit Cole -- Vientos took the future Hall of Famer deep in the second and fourth innings to help the Mets build an early 6-0 lead. He's homered four times in the last five games, and through 19 games in June, Vientos has compiled a .275/.329/.565 slash line with six long balls, 12 RBI and 14 runs.

    Toglia went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Astros.

  • Tallies three hits
    Mountcastle went 3-for-5 with a double and one run scored in Tuesday's 10-8 loss to the Guardians.

    Advice: Mountcastle has four multi-hit efforts over his last seven games, going 11-for-28 (.393) in that span. While he hasn't hit a homer since June 7, he's still been consistent at the plate while occupying a starting role at first base. The 27-year-old is slashing .281/.325/.476 with 11 homers, 39 RBI, 43 runs scored, 21 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 74 games this season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:54 pm
     
  • Drives in three in win

  • Homers in loss
    France went 2-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's 11-3 loss to the Rays.

    Advice: France singled in the third inning and hit a 427-foot two-run home run in the fifth. He had been mired in a 1-for-20 slump since returning from the IL with a heel injury June 18, and the homer was his first since May 31. On the season, the first baseman is hitting .238 with eight home runs and 29 RBI over 235 at-bats. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:24 pm
     
  • Pasquantino drives in lone run for Royals in loss
    Vinnie Pasquantino went 1-for-4 with an RBI in Tuesday’s loss to the Marlins.

    Advice: Pasquantino singled in the first inning to score Maikel Garcia from third after Garcia walked to kick off the inning and subsequently stole two bases. It would be the only run the Royals would score on the night as they found themselves in a pitching duel between Yonny Chirinos and Seth Lugo. Pasquantino now has eight home runs and 48 RBI on the season, and has hit safely in back-to-back games. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:56 pm
     
  • Mark Vientos has two home runs in win
    Mark Vientos went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in a 9-7 win over the Yankees on Tuesday.

    Advice: Vientos’ power is legit and he now has nine home runs on the year and six in 19 games in June. Vientos is also hitting 19-for-69 (.275) in June while taking over the Mets’ starting third base role. With the Mets offense surging and Vientos showing a better approach to go along with his plus power, he should be added in all formats where he may still be available.

  • Ty France has two hits, HR in loss
    Ty France went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Rays on Tuesday.

    Advice: France had a 98 mph single in the third inning and then followed that up with a 105 mph home run that traveled 427 feet in the fifth inning. It was his eighth home run on the season to go along with 29 RBI. France famously went to Driveline this offseason to try to find his power swing and while the results weren’t immediate, he had been showcasing improved power before going on the IL with a fractured heel. It’s not to see that the power stroke has come off the IL with him. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:34 pm
     
  • Out of Tuesday's lineup
    Soderstrom is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Angels.

    Advice: Soderstrom will head to the bench for the first time since June 5, and he posted a .279/.353/.557 slash line with five homers and 12 RBI during that 18-game stretch. Tyler Nevin is starting at first base against lefty Tyler Anderson on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:57 pm
