Player Notes

  • Belts big long ball
    Goodman went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run Thursday in a 10-9 victory versus San Diego.

    Advice: Goodman's eighth-inning, three-run blast was enormous not only in terms of distance (it traveled an estimated 448 feet) but also in terms of impact, as it brought the Rockies to within two runs in what was to become a successful late comeback. The homer was Goodman's first hit in six at-bats since being promoted from Triple-A on Wednesday. The 2021 fourth-round draft pick had seven long balls through 91 plate appearances in the minors prior to the call-up and knocked 34 home runs over 106 minor-league contests last year, so his potential for big-league power is intriguing, especially given his home field.

  • Clubs first homer of 2024
    France went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during Thursday's 4-3 win over the Rangers.

    Advice: Although France boasts a quality .266 batting average through 22 games, he's been a non-factor in the power department, waiting until his 84th plate appearance to notch his first home run of the campaign. The long ball came in the first inning off Andrew Heaney and plated Julio Rodriguez. His ISO has dropped from .116 to .088 while his strikeout rate sits at 21.8 percent after posting a K-rate lower than 18 percent in three straight seasons. Rotowire.com 14 minutes ago
  • Hits first homer
    Santana went 1-for-4 with a home run, one RBI and one run scored in Thursday's 6-3 victory over the White Sox. It was his first home runs of the season.

    Advice: After a dreadful start to the season (.347 OPS and one extra base hit in his first 16 games), Santana is finally showing some signs of life at the plate. He's 4-for-21 with a double and home run in his last five games. Rotowire.com 58 minutes ago
  • Struggles continue
    Tellez went 0-for-2 with a walk and a run scored Thursday against the Brewers.

    Advice: Tellez hasn't gotten on track at the plate this season and now has only two hits across his last 28 at-bats. He's struck out seven times in that span, and he has only two barrels on 51 batted ball events for the season. The Pirates could ultimately opt to play Connor Joe at first base more regularly if Tellez's struggles continue, and the eventual return of Yasmani Grandal (foot) could also mean that Tellez will lose some plate appearances.

  • Clobbers first-inning homer
    Perez went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run during Thursday's 2-1 win over the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Although Thursday's game was called after five innings due to poor weather, Perez managed to make an impact, swatting a two-run shot off Jose Berrios in the first frame. Over the Royals last two series', Perez is batting .435 with eight RBI and one strikeout across 27 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 9:49 pm
