Player Notes

  • Goes deep in loss
    Lowe went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 4-3 loss Seattle.

    Advice: Lowe reached down for a slider low in the zone to blast his first home run of the season. The first baseman has played in all five games since being activated off the injured list last Saturday. Rotowire.com 25 minutes ago
  • Salvador Perez powers Royals past Blue Jays
    Salvador Perez blasted a two-run homer on Thursday, powering the Royals to a 2-1 win over the Blue Jays in a rain-shortened five-inning affair.

    Advice: Perez’s two-run blast off Toronto starter José Berríos wound up being enough for Kansas City as the two teams waited out a nearly four-hour rain delay before the contest was finally called. The 33-year-old ironman is up to seven round-trippers on the season already and figures to cross the 30-homer threshold, if he can stay healthy. Rotoworld 46 minutes ago
  • Nolan Jones sits out Thursday with back issue
    Nolan Jones (back) remained out of the lineup for Thursday’s series finale against the Padres.

    Advice: It seems like Jones will be ready to return for this weekend’s highly-anticipated series against the Astros in Mexico City after sitting out a pair of contests against the Padres following an early exit from Tuesday’s game due to back stiffness. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. There should be some clarity on his status at some point later this week. Rotoworld Today, 4:12 pm
  • Freddie Freeman scalds RBI double in Dodgers’ win
    Freddie Freeman went 2-for-3 with an RBI double on Thursday, lifting the Dodgers to a 2-1 victory over the Nationals.

    Advice: Freeman has flown a bit under the radar with Mookie Betts and Shohei Ohtani justifiably stealing the early-season spotlight. However, his latest multi-hit performance puts his batting average back above the .300 mark for the first time this season. The 34-year-old fantasy stalwart has shown zero signs of slowing down at this stage of his career and remains an elite four-category contributor also capable of chipping in the occasional stolen base.

  • Joey Meneses posts three hits, RBI in losing effort
    Joey Meneses went 3-for-4 with an RBI on Thursday in the Nationals’ loss to the Dodgers.

    Advice: Meneses was one of the few bright spots for the Nationals in a low-scoring series finale against Los Angeles. The unheralded 31-year-old slugger’s eighth-inning single off veteran reliever Daniel Hudson was responsible for Washington’s lone run of the contest. Rotoworld Today, 4:03 pm
