  • Gets aboard four times in win
    Peralta went 3-for-3 with two doubles, one walk, two RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's 13-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Peralta has a pair of three-hit games since he joined the Padres on May 22, but he's gone just 1-for-22 over his other 11 contests. His two doubles Saturday was his first extra-base hits of the campaign. Peralta is slashing .241/.333/.310 with no home runs, three RBI, four runs scored and no stolen bases. While he's seeing steady time as a strong-side platoon player, he hasn't displayed enough consistency at the plate to warrant widespread fantasy consideration. Rotowire.com Today, 9:50 pm
  • Keeps up power surge
    Higashioka went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 13-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Higashioka has hit three homers over four games in June. His increased success at the plate has seen him split the starts at catcher with Luis Campusano, who should still be considered the Padres' primary backstop. Through 62 plate appearances this year, Higashioka is slashing .180/.194/.410 with four long balls, six RBI and six runs scored. His OPS was as low as .377 on May 26, but it's up to .604 now thanks to his increased display of power. Rotowire.com Today, 9:47 pm
  • Homers in back-to-back games
    Kim went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in Saturday's 13-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Kim has gone deep in back-to-back games, and he's logged seven extra-base hits among his 10 knocks over the last 10 games. The shortstop started the season slow, but it appears he's starting to find a groove. He's up to nine homers, 32 RBI, 35 runs scored, 13 stolen bases and a .224/.333/.404 slash line through 67 contests. Rotowire.com Today, 9:43 pm

  • Homers in third straight
    Vaughn went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday against the Red Sox.

    Advice: Vaughn has had a forgettable start to the 2024 season, but he's picked up his performance of late. After Saturday's performance, he's now gone yard in three straight starts and also has at least one hit in eight straight games. In that span, he's gone 11-for-31 with six runs scored and four RBI.

  • Ends power drought
    Cronenworth went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run, an RBI single and an additional run scored in Saturday's 13-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Cronenworth's fourth-inning blast turned the game into a rout, and he tacked on one more RBI in the fifth. The infielder has hit well lately, going 10-for-38 (.263) with nine RBI and four extra-base hits over his last nine games, though his homer Saturday was his first since May 19. On the year, he's slashing .261/.322/.446 with nine homers, 44 RBI, 27 runs scored, 15 doubles, two triples and one stolen base over 64 contests. Rotowire.com Today, 9:39 pm
  • Four homers in eight starts
    DeJong went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Saturday against the Red Sox.

    Advice: DeJong provided some insurance with a home run in the seventh inning, his 11th of the season and fourth in his last eight starts. He has only seven total hits in that span, illustrating his dependence on the long ball to provide any fantasy value. Overall, DeJong is hitting .234/284/.463 across 204 plate appearances on the campaign. Rotowire.com Today, 9:38 pm

  • First big-league run
    DeLoach went 0-for-2 with two walks and a run scored Saturday against the Red Sox.

    Advice: DeLoach was recalled to the majors Tuesday and Saturday marked his second start since. He recorded his first big-league hit Thursday against the Red Sox and reached another milestone Saturday with his first run scored. Even with a number of injuries in the White Sox's outfield, DeLoach is likely to continue to see only sporadic playing time. Rotowire.com Today, 9:32 pm

  • First start since activation
    Taylor went 1-for-3 with an RBI and a stolen base Saturday against the Twins.

    Advice: Taylor was away from the team from Tuesday to Thursday while on paternity leave, with Saturday marking his first start since being activated. It was a productive effort, but he figures to serve in a short-side platoon role behind Jack Suwinski in center field. Rotowire.com Today, 9:27 pm
  • Smacks 18th long ball
    Ramirez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Saturday's 8-0 win over the Marlins.

    Advice: Ramirez has gone 6-for-22 (.273) with two homers and four RBI over six games in June. The third baseman opened the scoring Saturday with a first-inning solo shot off Miami starter Roddery Munoz. For the year, Ramirez is slashing .272/.335/.553 with 18 homers, 61 RBI, 49 runs scored, nine stolen bases, 13 doubles and a triple over 62 contests. Rotowire.com Today, 9:25 pm
