  • Swipes 18th bag
    Rengifo went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 4-3 victory versus San Francisco.

    Advice: Rengifo doubled in the first inning but was left stranded at third. In the seventh, he produced the game-winning run on a two-out RBI single that he followed with a stolen base. After swiping just six bases in 126 games last year, Rengifo has taken off with 18 thefts through 54 contests this season. That alone has given him ample fantasy value, and he's boosted his stock with a .315/.360/.437 slash line while adding four homers, 20 RBI and 26 runs. Rotowire.com Today, 8:11 am

  • Mark Vientos drives in two in loss
    Mark Vientos went 1-for-4 with two RBIs in a loss to the Marlins on Tuesday.

    Advice: Vientos laced an RBI double 98.2 mph down the left-field line for two RBI in the second inning. The 24-year-old continues to operate as the Mets primary starter at third base, for now, and is hitting .320/.381/.587 with 15 RBI on the season. He’s worthy of an add in most leagues while he has the starting job. Rotoworld Tuesday, 7:52 pm

  • Two more steals Sunday
    Rengifo went 2-for-4 with two steals and a run in Sunday's 9-7 win over the Angels. He was also hit by a pitch.

    Advice: Rengifo ended a mini 0-for-8 skid at the plate with two hits Sunday and managed to swipe two more bags to bring him up to 17 for the year. Rengifo already has five steals in eight games this month and now sits tied for sixth in baseball. He now has eight multi-hit efforts over his last 18 games and continues to be one of the most consistent hitters in the Angels' lineup. The 27-year-old is now slashing .316/.367/.448 with four homers, 18 RBI, 25 runs and a 12:27 BB:K in 189 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:26 am

  • Luis Rengifo swipes two bases as Angels top Astros
    Luis Rengifo continued his thieving ways in Sunday’s victory over the Astros, going 2-for-4 with a run scored and a pair of stolen bases.

    Advice: Rengifo led off the fifth inning with a single off of Justin Verlander, swiped second base and then raced around to score on an RBI single by Willie Calhoun. He also reached on an error in the ninth inning and nabbed second again, but was ultimately stranded there. The versatile 27-year-old entered the season with 18 career stolen bases through his first 448 ballgames. This season, he has already swiped 17 bags in his first 49 games while hitting a robust .316/.367/.448 with four homers and 18 RBI. Rotoworld Sunday, 4:54 pm

  • Not starting Sunday
    Vientos is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

    Advice: Vientos will get a rest day for the first time since May 28. The 23-year-old has gone 11-for-38 with two home runs and six RBI over his last 10 games. The lefty-hitting Brett Baty will start at third base and bat eighth against Philadelphia right-hander Taijuan Walker. Rotowire.com Sunday, 6:23 am
