  • Smacks go-ahead homer in extras
    Winn went 2-for-6 with a two-run home run and a pair of runs scored in Monday's 7-6 win over the Marlins.

    Advice: Winn took A.J. Puk deep in the top of the 12th to give his team the win on Monday. The shortstop has settled nicely atop the Cardinals lineup, he's hit leadoff 18 times this season, including in his last 11 appearances. The counting stats are lagging a tad with only four home runs, 26 RBI, and eight steals thus far, but his .295/.339/.429 remains impressive for the 22-year-old. Rotowire.com 13 minutes ago

  • Report: A’s designating J.D. Davis for assignment
    The A’s have decided to cut J.D. Davis, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan.

    Advice: This is the move to make room for Lawrence Butler. We’re hard-pressed to see how Davis is worse than Seth Brown or even Abraham Toro, who has been pretty terrible since the A’s decided to make him their leadoff man. Still, none of this really matters — none of these guys are going to be part of the next competitive A’s team — but Davis might help someone else down the stretch. Rotoworld 17 minutes ago
