Dee Gordon swipes 28th base in lossDee Gordon went 0-for-2 with a stolen base in the Mariners' loss to the Astros on Tuesday.
Advice: The Mariners offense managed just nine hits and stranded a small village (17 base runners) on the base paths in this contest. Gordon reached twice via hit by pitch, getting drilled on two separate occasions by Astros reliever Framber Valdez. He was plunked with two outs in the fourth and stole second base in the fourth inning. He was also nailed leading off the seventh, but was eventually picked off and caught stealing for the 10th time this year. The 30-year-old speedster is tied with Jose Ramirez for the American League-lead with 28 thefts this season. Rotoworld.comDee Gordon Sea - 2B,OF -
Brad Boxberger picks up win in reliefBrad Boxberger pitched a scoreless ninth inning and picked up his second win of the year in the Diamondbacks' walk-off win against the Angels on Tuesday.
Advice: Boxberger was summoned to pitch the top of the ninth inning in a tie ballgame. He surrendered a one-out single to Francisco Arcia before striking out Kole Calhoun and David Fletcher to end the threat. He picked up a win when the Diamondbacks offense walked it off on a bizarre throwing error in the bottom of the ninth. The 30-year-old righty is 2-4 with 28 saves, a 3.30 ERA and 62/22 K/BB ratio in 43 2/3 innings this year. Rotoworld.comBrad Boxberger Ari - RP -
Jefry Marte clubs pinch-hit homer in lossJefry Marte came off the bench to slug a solo homer, his fifth of the year, in the Angels’ loss to the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.
Advice: Marte tattooed a full-count, 92-mph heater from Diamondbacks reliever Yoshihisa Hirano in the seventh inning to pull the Angels within a run. It was his first long-ball since July 15. The 27-year-old first baseman has looked completely overmatched against big-league pitching, hitting just .214 with five homers in 148 plate appearances this year.

Corbin fires six innings in no-decisionPatrick Corbin allowed two runs on five hits over six innings and did not factor into the decision in the Diamondbacks’ win over the Angles on Tuesday.
Advice: Corbin scattered five hits and struck out eight batters. A pair of RBI base hits in the second inning accounted for all of the damage against him in this one. The 29-year-old lefty 4-0 with a 2.97 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and a sparkling 49/4 K/BB ratio in six starts since the All-Star break. He’s whiffed at least seven batters in each start during that span. Corbin is 10-4 with a 3.97 ERA and 198/39 K/BB ratio in 26 starts. He’ll face the Giants on the road in his next start on Monday. Rotoworld.comPatrick Corbin Ari - SP -
Vince Velasquez has rain-shortened startVince Velasquez was charged with one run over four innings of work in a rain-shortened outing Tuesday in the Phillies' loss to the Nationals.
Advice: Velasquez allowed an RBI double to pitcher Tanner Roark in the second inning and then surprisingly came back out to pitch following a one hour and 42 minute delay. He retired the Nationals in order in the third and fourth but was then pinch-hit for. It makes three straight short outings for Velasquez, although this one was hardly his fault. He will take on the Blue Jays in Toronto this weekend. Rotoworld.comVince Velasquez Phi - SP
