  • Drives in two
    Gonzales went 1-for-4 with two RBI on Friday against the Cubs.

    Advice: Gonzales was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis Friday and immediately entered the starting lineup, hitting fifth while starting at second base. He delivered a two-RBI single in the first inning but also struck out twice. Gonzales should have a chance to seize regular playing time as the Pirates continue to try to get their offense on track.

  • Early exit from rehab outing
    Lowe (oblique) was pulled from Friday's rehab appearance with Triple-A Durham for precautionary reasons, MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Lowe has been on a rehab assignment since Tuesday and went 2-for-5 with a home run across three appearances. It's unclear why he was pulled or if it will push back his timeline to return. Rotowire.com 52 minutes ago
     
  • Clubs go-ahead homer
    Frazier went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Friday's 2-1 win over the Angels.

    Advice: Frazier put the Royals ahead with his ninth-inning blast. The second baseman has gone 3-for-7 over his last two games after enduring an 0-for-15 skid over his previous six contests. Frazier's playing time has been irregular since he lost the starting job at the keystone to Michael Massey, but he's been able to draw in with time in the corner outfield and at designated hitter. Frazier's at a .188/.309/.250 slash line with one homer, eight RBI, eight runs scored, a stolen base and two doubles through 94 plate appearances this season, so his lack of an everyday role shouldn't come as a surprise.

  • Homers off bench Friday
    Gorman hit a solo home run in his lone at-bat in Friday's 11-2 loss to the Brewers.

    Advice: Gorman entered the game as a defensive replacement after the Brewers turned it into a rout. Gorman's ninth-inning blasted ended his 0-for-14 skid that spanned all of May prior to Friday. The second baseman is slashing a meager .179/.262/.350 with five homers, 13 RBI, nine runs scored, five doubles and no stolen bases over 130 plate appearances. Gorman began the year in a near-everyday role at the keystone, but he's now sat out against the last three southpaws the Cardinals have faced, with Jose Fermin picking up the playing time. Gorman had reverse splits last season and that has carried over into 2024, but he's simply not hitting well enough overall to justify a full-time role at this point of the season.

  • Swats fourth homer
    Freeman went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 6-3 loss to the White Sox.

    Advice: Freeman hasn't been able to turn his hitting around in May -- he's gone 4-for-26 (.154) through nine games this month and is batting just .193 on the year. His homer Friday was his first since April 19, and two of his hits in May have gone for extra bases. The 24-year-old has four homers, 13 RBI, 18 runs scored and four steals through 126 plate appearances. It's fair to question whether Freeman has earned his near-everyday role, but the Guardians are unlikely to shake things up too dramatically while Steven Kwan (hamstring) is out.

  • Homers in Friday's loss
    Estrada went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Reds.

    Advice: Estrada is enjoying a strong start to May, hitting safely in eight of his 10 games this month. He's gone 12-for-40 (.300) in that span, adding two homers and eight RBI. The second baseman is at a .248/.276/.434 slash line with six homers, 21 RBI, 17 runs scored and one stolen base through 39 contests overall. Estrada is on pace for a career year in homers, but his overall performance is down and the Giants' weak offense hasn't helped him rack up more counting stats. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:17 pm
     
  • Notches fourth steal
    Rojas went 2-for-5 with a stolen base in Friday's 8-1 win over the Athletics.

    Advice: Rojas has five multi-hit efforts over eight games in May, going 13-for-31 (.419) with two steals and two extra-base hits in that span. The light-hitting 29-year-old is playing well atop the Mariners' lineup versus right-handed pitchers while splitting time between third base and left field. Friday's effort has him at a .351/.417/.526 slash line with three home runs, four steals, eight RBI and 12 runs scored over 108 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:54 pm

  • Three hits, five RBI in win
    Moore went 3-for-4 with a home run and five RBI in Friday's 8-1 win over the Athletics.

    Advice: Moore hit a two-run home run in the fifth inning, then added a two-run single in the fifth and an RBI single in the seventh. He had recorded just one multi-hit effort and a total of four RBI over his previous 12 contests. The 31-year-old lifted his slash line to .226/.333/.429 with three homers, 12 RBI, 11 runs scored and five stolen bases through 99 plate appearances. Moore continues to operate as the Mariners' top shortstop while J.P. Crawford (oblique) is on the mend. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:51 pm

  • Estrada hits solo homer in loss to Reds
    Thairo Estrada hit a solo homer in a loss Friday to the Giants.

    Advice: Estrada pounced on an Andrew Abbott offering in the first inning for his sixth homer and 21st RBI of the 2024 campaign. It was the only hit of the game for the infielder, and his slash of .248/.276/.434 leaves a bit to be desired. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:50 pm
