    • Produces quality start Wednesday
      Peralta came away with a no-decision in Wednesday's 6-2 loss to Atlanta, allowing two runs on three hits and two walks over six innings. He struck out seven.

      Advice: The right-hander served up back-to-back homers to Matt Olson and Travis d'Arnaud in the fourth inning, but otherwise Peralta went unscathed as he delivered his ninth quality start of the year on 101 pitches (59 strikes). Over his last eight outings, he's given up more than three runs only once, posting a 3.05 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 51:18 K:BB through 44.1 innings. Peralta lines up for a road rematch with Atlanta next week. Rotowire.com Today, 7:02 pm
       
    • James Wood reaches three times in loss to D-Backs
      James Wood went 2-for-4 with a run scored and a walk against the Diamondbacks on Wednesday.

      Advice: Wood had a multi-hit day in Wednesday’s loss to Arizona. He knocked a base hit in the first inning, then singled to lead off the fourth before scoring on a double by Harold Ramírez. Wood later drew a walk in the ninth. The 21-year-old outfielder is hitting .245/.333/.357 with two homers, 16 RBI, and two steals across 111 plate appearances. Rotoworld Today, 3:41 pm
       
    • Jackson Chourio collects two hits in loss to Braves
      Jackson Chourio went 2-for-5 with a run scored on Wednesday in the Brewers’ loss to the Braves.

      Advice: Chourio posted a pair of hits out of Milwaukee’s leadoff spot, which wasn’t enough in a low-scoring affair as the Brewers went 1-for-8 with runners in scoring position and standed nine men on-base in a losing effort. The 20-year-old former top prospect has been on a tear over the past few weeks, batting .330 (37-for-112) with five homers and four steals over his last 30 games. Rotoworld Today, 2:24 pm

    • Freddy Peralta strikes out seven in no-decision
      Freddy Peralta struck out seven and allowed two runs over six innings on Wednesday in a no-decision against the Braves.

      Advice: Peralta carried a shutout into the fourth inning before serving up solo homers to Travis d’Arnaud and Matt Olson, which accounted for all of the damage against him over six frames. The 28-year-old righty notched only 10 swinging strikes and finished with a lackluster 25 percent CSW. He’ll bring a respectable 3.89 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 149/45 K/BB ratio across 120 1/3 innings (22 starts) into a rematch against the Braves next Wednesday at Truist Park.

    • Vinnie Pasquantino powers Royals past White Sox
      Vinnie Pasquantino went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer and three RBI on Wednesday, sparking the Royals to a dominant 10-3 victory over the White Sox.

      Advice: Pasquantino did all of his damage at the outset and end of Wednesday afternoon’s lopsided affair at Chicago’s Guaranteed Rate Field, kicking off the scoring with an RBI single in the opening frame before blasting a ninth-inning homer -- his 12th big fly of the season -- off reliever Sammy Peralta. The 26-year-old first baseman is batting .331 (40-for-121) with five homers and 26 RBI over his last 30 contests. Rotoworld Today, 2:11 pm
       
    • Smacks grand slam for first homer
      Holliday went 1-for-5 with a grand slam in Wednesday's 10-4 win over the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Holliday certainly made the most of his first big-league homer -- the 20-year-old launched a 439-foot grand slam on a 0-2 pitch from Yerry Rodriguez, extending the Orioles lead to 8-3. While it was just the second hit for Holliday in 39 at-bats with Baltimore, he did post an .860 OPS with eight homers and seven steals in 63 games after he was sent back down to Triple-A Norfolk. With Jordan Westburg (hand) likely to join Jorge Mateo (elbow) on the injured list, Holliday should get the chance to prove himself as an everyday player in the majors. Rotowire.com Today, 2:04 pm

    • Jordan Westburg suffers right hand fracture
      Orioles manager Brandon Hyde told reporters that Jordan Westburg suffered a right hand fracture.

      Advice: Westburg fractured his right hand when he was hit by a 95 mph fastball during Wednesday’s game against the Blue Jays. Hyde said the Orioles are hoping he can return by the end of the regular season. Westburg is droppable in formats without spots for injured players based on that timetable. It’s a tough blow for fantasy managers as Westburg was enjoying a breakout season with a .271 average, 18 home runs and 58 RBI. The calls for Baltimore to call up Coby Mayo will only grow louder as the team moves forward without Westburg for the time being. It seems like a virtual lock that Mayo will get the call to the majors following this latest development. Rotoworld Today, 12:53 pm

    • Diagnosed with fractured hand
      Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said that Westburg has been diagnosed with a fractured right hand after exiting Wednesday's 10-4 win over the Blue Jays, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

      Advice: Westburg suffered the injury on a hit-by-pitch in the bottom of the fifth inning. Hyde said that the Orioles are hoping to get Westburg back before the end of the regular season, but a clear timetable for his return hasn't yet established. Westburg's absence could open the door for top prospect Coby Mayo to receive a call-up to the majors, though the Orioles could also stick with Ramon Urias at third base and Jackson Holliday at second base.

    • Stumbles vs. Marlins
      Bradley (6-5) took the loss Wednesday against Miami, allowing four runs on four hits and one walk over five innings. He struck out six.

      Advice: Bradley was stung by the long ball Tuesday -- after giving up a solo homer to Jonah Bride in the second inning, the right-hander surrendered a two-run shot to Jake Burger in the third that put the Rays in a 4-2 hole. Bradley hadn't allowed more than two runs in nine straight starts prior to Wednesday -- he'd pitched to a stellar 0.82 ERA in that span (55 innings). Overall, the 23-year-old Bradley now sports a 2.71 ERA on the year with a 1.01 WHIP and 103:28 K:BB across 15 outings (86.1 innings). He'll look to get back on track in his next start, currently scheduled for early next week in St. Louis. Rotowire.com Today, 12:41 pm
