    • Notches second save
      Diekman pitched two-thirds of an inning and picked up the save in Monday's 8-7 victory over Washington. He struck out one and did not allow a baserunner.

      Advice: Adam Ottavino came on in the ninth inning to preserve a three-run Mets lead, but he allowed one earned run before exiting with one out and the bases loaded. Diekman entered the game and allowed a sacrifice fly that cut the lead to 8-7 before striking out the final batter to record his second save of the season. Diekman rebounded from Sunday's blown save, but Adam Ottavino was the first one called upon in the ninth. With Reed Garrett also in the mix for saves, the Mets bullpen situation is very unclear while Edwin Diaz (shoulder) is on the injured list. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:52 pm
       
    • Gets walked off
      Rodriguez (1-1) allowed two runs on two hits and struck out one in one-third of an inning, taking the loss Monday versus the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Rodriguez served up a walk-off two-run blast to Pavin Smith in the ninth inning. After looking steady in the second half of May, Rodriguez has faltered by allowing four runs over his last 2.1 innings across three appearances. He's at a 3.57 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 23:7 K:BB over 17.2 innings while seeing most of his work in low-leverage spots, Monday's outing being a rare exception. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:47 pm
       
    • Takes first loss
      Romero (2-1) allowed four runs (three earned) on three hits and struck out two over one inning, taking the loss and a blown save versus the Astros on Monday.

      Advice: Romero allowed just two runs over 13 innings in May, but he won't fare as well in June after this brutal outing. He was responsible for an Alex Bregman solo shot and a two-run home run by Yainer Diaz as part of the Astros' comeback. Even with the poor appearance, Romero has a 2.10 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 30:4 K:BB with 18 holds and two blown saves through 30 innings. The southpaw is unlikely to be removed from a setup role after just one bad outing, so he should still be a steady source of holds and solid strikeout numbers.

    • Spencer Howard solid for 4 2/3 innings in relief
      After coming in to start the second inning, Spencer Howard yielded two runs in 4 2/3 innings Monday against the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Erik Miller opened for the Giants and worked a scoreless first. Howard has been pretty sharp in his two appearances for the Giants, allowing two runs and posting a 7/0 K/BB in 8 2/3 innings. He should hang around and either start or again work as a bulk guy this weekend versus the Rangers. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:49 pm
       
    • Allows two runs
      Howard yielded two runs on four hits over 4.2 innings in a no-decision Monday. He struck out three during the loss to Arizona.

      Advice: Both runs against Howard came during the second inning after he took over for Erik Miller, who opened the game with a scoreless frame. Howard found a groove and didn't face much of a threat after that second-inning hiccup. In two outings since being recalled from Triple-A Sacramento, he's posted a 7:0 K:BB and a 2.08 ERA through 8.2 innings. With Blake Snell (groin) back on the injured list, Howard could make another start or be used as a bulk reliever again later this week. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:08 pm
       
    • Brieske finishes off win Monday
      Beau Brieske threw three shutout innings out of the bullpen and picked up the win against the Rangers on Monday.

      Advice: Brieske came into a tie game in the seventh inning, the Tigers took the lead in the eighth and he finished it off for his first win this year. Tigers closer Jason Foley had pitched each of the last two days, but thrown a total of only 30 pitches in those outings. Foley was likely unavailable as Will Vest was the only Tigers reliever warming up in the ninth inning. After saving nine games in March and April combined, Foley has just two saves since the May 1st.

    • Shuts door for first win
      Brieske (1-0) tossed three scoreless innings of relief to earn the win in Monday's 2-1 victory against the Rangers. He allowed one hit and struck out four.

      Advice: After six solid innings from starter Tarik Skubal, Brieske came in and looked just as sharp as the team's ace. Brieske has been stellar so far for the Tigers, posting a 1.59 ERA across 11.1 innings, having been scored upon only once in six appearances. The righty's fantasy value is limited as a long reliever, though he'd get a boost if he sees more high-leverage work due to his strong play. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:41 pm
       
    • Jake Diekman notches two-out save against Nats
      Jake Diekman recorded a two-out save on Monday against the Nationals.

      Advice: Diekman was brought on in the ninth inning with the Mets ahead by a pair of runs at the time after Adam Ottavino got into a bases-loaded, one-out jam. The 37-year-old southpaw was somehow able to escape with the lead intact. He got a sacrifice fly from pinch-hitter Joey Meneses to kick things off before striking out Drew Millas to end the contest and preserve the victory. It’s not a situation fantasy managers will be extracting much value from moving forward, but Diekman figures to be in the mix with Ottavino and Reed Garrett moving forward for saves in New York.

    • Opening again Tuesday
      Koenig is expected to serve as the opening pitcher for Tuesday's game against the Phillies, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

      Advice: Koenig experienced success in an opening role Monday night, needing only five pitches to deliver a perfect frame. The Brewers will call on him again Tuesday with the hope of getting through the top three batters in Philly's order before likely handing the ball to Colin Rea. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:20 pm
