    • Idle Saturday
      Sheets is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against Arizona.

      Advice: Sheets will get a day to recoup after going hitless in his last 15 at-bats. Korey Lee will shift to DH while Martin Maldonado fills in behind the dish. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:11 pm
       
    • Racks up three hits in loss
      Burleson went 3-for-4 in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Pirates.

      Advice: There wasn't much for the hitters early in this contest, but Burleson was able to account for two of the five runs on Pittsburgh starter Paul Skenes' line. Through 10 games in June, Burleson is batting .286 (12-for-42) with five extra-base hits. He continues to be consistent for the Cardinals with a .283/.314/.455 slash line, nine home runs, 24 RBI, 20 runs scored and two stolen bases over 58 contests this season. Four of his homers have come in June. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 12:10 am

    • Homers in Sunday's win
      Burleson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Rockies.

      Advice: Burleson is up to nine homers this year, four of which he's hit over nine contests in June. He's batting .237 (9-for-38) this month, but that slight drop in hitting has yet to cost him the everyday role he earned with a strong May. The outfielder is slashing .273/.305/.448 with 24 RBI, 20 runs scored, two stolen bases and seven doubles over 203 plate appearances on the year, and he's routinely batted second in the order over the last week.

    • Belts first career slam
      Sheets went 3-for-4 with a grand slam in Saturday's 6-1 win over the Red Sox.

      Advice: The 28-year-old slugger took Brayan Bello deep in the fifth inning, breaking a 1-1 tie and giving Sheets the first grand slam of his career. He's gone yard in back-to-back games and has four of his seven homers this season in the last 11 contests, a stretch in which Sheets is batting .282 (11-for-39) with 10 RBI.

    • Sheets has three hits, grand slam Saturday
      Gavin Sheets went 3-for-4 with a grand slam against the Red Sox on Saturday.

      Advice: Sheets’ home run was his seventh of the year and the grand slam has him up to 27 RBI. It’s his second consecutive game with a home run and third of the month of June already. Sheets is hitting .246 with a .788 OPS on the season. Rotoworld Saturday, 5:15 pm
       
    • Pops homer, scores three times
      Sheets went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, three runs scored and two walks in Friday's win over the Red Sox.

      Advice: Sheets walked and scored in the fourth and eighth innings Friday, sandwiched around his solo shot in the sixth. He was recently stuck in a 33-game skid without a home run, but he's gone deep three times over his last 10 games. He bumped his season slash line up to .235/.341/.417 with 21 extra-base hits and 19 runs scored through 220 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:57 pm
       
    • Gavin Sheets homers, scores three runs in win
      Gavin Sheets homered, walked twice and scored three runs Friday against the Red Sox.

      Advice: Major league players had scored three runs in a game 159 times this season coming into the night, but this is the first time a White Sox player had done so. It’s also the first time Sheets has reached the mark in his 354 career games. It actually puts him at exactly 100 runs scored for his career. He’s been perfectly solid in hitting .235/.341/.417 for the White Sox. It’s just a mistake to ever ask him to play the outfield, something that will again become an issue once Eloy Jiménez gets healthy. Rotoworld Friday, 8:30 pm
