  • Walks it off against NYM
    DeLuca went 2-for-4 with a two-RBI triple, an additional run scored and an additional RBI during Sunday's 7-6 win over the Mets in 10 innings.

    Advice: DeLuca delivered in the 10th inning, notching his first career triple and plating Jose Caballero and Ben Rortvedt to secure a Rays victory. In three games since being reinstated from the 10-day IL, DeLuca is 3-for-11 (.273) with six RBI, two runs scored and two stolen bases. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:23 pm
     
  • Nick Gordon has four hits, HR in win over A’s
    Nick Gordon went 4-for-4 with a home run, three RBI, and two runs scored in a 12-3 win over the A’s on Sunday.

    Advice: Gordon got the party started with a 406-foot home run off Joe Boyle in the first inning that was 104.7 mph off the bat and drove in three runs. He added two more singles and a double, all of which were hit at least 98 mph. The 28-year-old has started four of the last six games but is slashing just .207/.241/.390 on the season with four home runs and 15 RBI. He should be left on the wire outside of the deepest formats.

  • Adam Frazier goes 0-for-3 against Rangers
    Adam Frazier went 0-for-3 before being removed for defense Sunday against the Rangers.

    Advice: Frazier got the nod in right field today even though he came in with a .176/.300/.206 line in 80 plate appearances. That’s really the problem with signing an Adam Frazier. He’s not this bad, but he’s also very unlikely to be very good and managers just love forcing him into the lineup. Since the beginning of 2022, he has 1,140 plate appearances with a .234 average, a .300 OBP and a .337 slugging percentage. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:56 pm
     
  • Swipes two bags in loss
    Blanco secured two stolen bases in Sunday's 3-2 extra-inning loss to the Rangers.

    Advice: Blanco entered the game in the bottom of the eighth inning as a pinch runner for Vinnie Pasquantino, stealing both second and third base. The outfielder is now up to eight stolen bases this season, and he's gotten three total swipes over the last three games. On the flip side, Blanco draws only an occasional spot in the starting lineup, limiting his upside as a stolen-base option for fantasy managers. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:55 pm
     
  • Blasts first homer
    Bouchard reached base three times Sunday, going 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk against the Pirates.

    Advice: Bouchard followed teammate Jacob Stallings' two-run blast with a shot of his own during a second inning that saw the Rockies jump out to an early three-run lead. It was the first homer of the campaign for Bouchard, who later added a double for his first multi-hit effort of the season. Bouchard got the starting nod against Pirates lefty Bailey Falter, marking his first start in four games, as he appears to be mired on the short side of a platoon in right field with Jake Cave, pending the return of Kris Bryant (back), who's currently on the injured list.

  • Jesse Winker hits three-run homer in Nats’ win
    Jesse Winker finished 2-for-2 with a three-run homer and a walk Sunday against the Jays.

    Advice: He also made a surprisingly good catch to rob Justin Turner in the eighth... even Winker himself seemed pretty surprised by it. Winker was in a 7-for-54 slump before getting to face Alek Manoah today. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:59 pm
     
  • Lifts second homer
    Stallings went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Sunday against the Pirates.

    Advice: Stallings put the Rockies on the board with the second-inning blast against his former club. Despite serving as the second catcher in Colorado, Stallings has been effective on offense when given the opportunity with a hitting streak that's spanned the last seven games he's played in since April 17. He's hit .400 over that stretch with two homers, six RBI and four runs scored, lifting his season average to .351 in the process. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:49 pm
     
  • Jonny DeLuca delivers game-winning triple for Rays
    Jonny DeLuca went 2-for-4 with a game-winning, two-run triple in the bottom of the 10th as the Rays outlasted the Mets 7-6 on Sunday.

    Advice: Harrison Bader was shaded the other way and came up just a little short on a diving attempt for DeLuca’s shot to center in the 10th. The ball rolled all of the way to the wall, and it might have been an inside-the-park homer if the winning run wasn’t already on base. DeLuca also had an RBI single earlier in the contest. He might be limited to playing mostly against lefties once the Rays get Josh Lowe back, but as is, he’s started three straight games since coming off the IL and gone 3-for-11 with six RBI.

  • Jeff McNeil goes 0-for-4 in loss to Rays
    Jeff McNeil went 0-for-4 on Sunday and is 1-for-16 in his last four games.

    Advice: The NL batting champ when he hit .326 in 2022, McNeil slipped to .270 last year and is at .231 right now. Of course, that’s not coming with a lot of power or many walks, either. The Mets aren’t about to take him out of the lineup with any regularity, but perhaps they should cease using him in left field on those days when they decide someone else should play second base.
