Brendan Rodgers Triples In Loss To Seattle

Colorado Rockies shortstop Brendan Rodgers went 2-for-3 with a triple and a single in a 2-1 loss to the Mariners on Tuesday. Rodgers was the only batter on Colorado to pick up multiple hits as Chris Flexen was rolling on the other side. He picked up a triple and a single but wasn't able to […]

C.J. Cron Stays Hot With A Solo Home Run

Colorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron went 1-for-3 with a home run and a walk in a 2-1 loss to the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday. Cron was the Rockies' offense on Tuesday as he accounted for their only run when he took Seattle starter Chris Flexen deep in the top of the seventh inning to […]

Kyle Freeland Looks Sharp In No-Decision

Colorado Rockies left-hander Kyle Freeland took a no-decision on Tuesday when he surrendered one run on five hits with one walk and seven strikeouts in a 2-1 loss to the Seattle Mariners. This was Freeland's best outing of the year, by far, as he set season highs in innings pitched and strikeouts while only surrendering […]

Jake Cronenworth Smacks A Homer Tuesday

San Diego Padres Jake Cronenworth blasted a two-run home run helping the Padres knock off in-state rival the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday. The 27-year-old has rounded the bases four times in his last seven games played. Cronenworth carries a .281 batting average to go along with ten home runs and 29 RBI in 278 […]

Wilmer Flores Continues To Cruise

San Francisco Giants third baseman Wilmer Flores went 1-4 with a two-run blast and a walk Tuesday against the Angels. During his last seven games, Flores has been on fire, collecting ten hits. Four of those hits have been home runs. Flores, in his previous 15 games, is batting .289. If the third baseman continues […]

Kendall Graveman Locks Down Sixth Save Tuesday

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Kendall Graveman recorded his sixth save of the year Tuesday, setting down all three Colorado Rockies he faced. He struck out one batter. Graveman had been shaky since returning from the injured list, but Tuesday was a reminder of how dominant he can be. Graveman now has a 1.25 ERA and […]

Shed Long Jr. Hits Game-Winning Home Run Tuesday

Seattle Mariners utility man Shed Long Jr. came up with yet another big hit Tuesday, launching a game-winning home run in the bottom of the eighth inning off Colorado Rockies relief pitcher Tyler Kinley. It was his only hit in three at-bats for the game. Long Jr. now has a .783 OPS in 44 at-bats […]

Chris Flexen Allows Only One Run Tuesday

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Chris Flexen was very sharp Tuesday, allowing just one run on four hits and two walks in 6 2/3 innings of work. He struck out six batters. Flexen has now delivered quality starts in four of his last five outings, and he holds a 6-3 record for the year with a […]

Bobby Dalbec Strikes Out Four Times Tuesday

Boston Red Sox first baseman Bobby Dalbec struck out four times in five at-bats Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Rays. Dalbec had been hot of late, with a 1.009 OPS over the last seven games even after his forgettable day. Despite the recent success, it's still strikeouts that will cause Dalbec's fans and fantasy managers […]

Shed Long Jr. Blasts A Homer Tuesday

Seattle Mariners second baseman Shed Long Jr. connected on a solo shot to help his club defeat the Rockies 2-1 on Tuesday. The utility man has cracked two home runs in two games. Long Jr. has been particularly productive from the plate in his last six games. He's recorded eight hits in the six-game time […]

Hunter Renfroe Homers, Drives In Three

Boston Red Sox outfielder Hunter Renfroe continues to outperform expectations, going 2-for-5 against the Tampa Bay Rays Tuesday, with a home run, three RBI, and two runs scored. It was his ninth home run of the season. Renfroe is now firmly entrenched as the sixth hitter in the lineup on a daily basis, leaving him […]

Rafael Devers Doubles Twice, Drives In Three

Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers continued his hot hitting Tuesday, going 2-for-4 with two doubles, three RBI, and a run scored. He now has 41 extra-base hits on the season, and has slashed .357/.387/.786 in his last seven games. On the season he has a .920 OPS with 18 home runs, 49 runs, […]

Xander Bogaerts Scores Twice, Steals A Base

Boston Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts reached base three times Tuesday, going 3-for-5 with three singles, two runs scored, and a stolen base. The steal was his fifth of the season. There's simply no category Bogaerts doesn't contribute to, and he's quietly making a case for himself for MVP behind perhaps only Shohei Ohtani and […]

J.D. Martinez Drives In Two

Boston Red Sox designated hitter J.D. Martinez drove in two runs Tuesday, going 1-for-5 with a double and a run scored. He now has 18 doubles and 46 RBI on the year. Despite a stellar .914 OPS for the season, Martinez has slashed just .268/.295/.463 with four home runs over his last 30 games. Fantasy […]

Danny Santana Leads Off, Steals A Base

Boston Red Sox utility man Danny Santana led off and played center field Tuesday, going 1-for-4 with a walk, a run scored, and a steal. It was his second stolen base of the season. Santana has been largely disappointing since joining the Red Sox, posting just a .490 OPS with two home runs and two […]

Eduardo Rodriguez Solid In Six Innings Tuesday

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez was solid against the Tampa Bay Rays Wednesday, making it through six innings for the first time since May 12.

Austin Hays Goes Hitless Tuesday, Slump Continues

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Austin Hays continued his slump in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Astros, going 0-for-4. It was Hays' third straight game without a hit, bringing his season batting average down to a meager .219. The 25-year-old had a productive 2019 and 2020 seasons, but has struggled mightily in 2021. He held fantasy promise […]

Jorge Lopez Takes Tough Loss Tuesday

Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Jorge Lopez fell to 2-9 in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Astros. Lopez pitched 6 1/3 innings, allowing two runs on five hits (including a solo home run) and two walks with six strikeouts. It was a pretty strong performance, but Lopez's offense could not give him much support. The 28-year-old […]

Erik Van Rooyen A Risky Play At TPC River Highlands

Fantasy managers should proceed with caution when considering Erik Van Rooyen this week. The big-hitting South African has missed five of his last six cuts. He is coming off a week at the U.S. Open where he lost strokes in all major categories except putting. All of Van Rooyen's best performances this season, such as […]

Dwight Smith Jr. Released By Reds

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Dwight Smith Jr. has been released by the organization. Smith was slashing .220/.327/.283 in 36 games in Triple-A this season. The organization signed Mallex Smith to a minor league deal, so this was likely the corresponding move. The 28-year-old was best known for his role on the Baltimore Orioles in 2019. He […]

Mallex Smith Signs Minor League Deal With Reds

The Cincinnati Reds have signed outfielder Mallex Smith to a minor league deal. The 28-year-old speedster signed a deal with the Mets over the winter, but was released in late May. Smith was recovering from a broken foot, but it appears he is healthy now. Smith is a career .255/.325/.361 hitter over his time in […]

Evan Longoria Could Resume Swinging Soon

San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (shoulder) could begin swinging a bat again soon. It has already been two weeks into Longoria's projected six-to-eight week timetable. He continues to work his way back from a left shoulder strain. The hope is that Longo will be ready shortly after the All-Star break. He was playing […]

Cameron Smith Worth A Shot At TPC River Highlands

Due to poor course history and shoddy recent form, Cameron Smith is not a player that most fantasy managers will instantly gravitate to this week. With that being said, it's worth noting that Smith missed the cut at the U.S. Open on the number while losing six strokes around the green. That is certainly an […]

Phillies Sign Jake Elmore

The Philadelphia Phillies have signed infielder Jake Elmore to a minor league deal. He has not appeared in an MLB game since 2019. During that season, Elmore batted .213/.245/.234 in 20 games. Elmore has never hit well during his time in the majors and that's unlikely going to change. This is mostly a depth signing […]
