6/18:Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Kevin Kiermaier had another successful rehab game Sunday. Barring a setback, it now appears as if Kiermaier has a real chance of being activated Friday. Injuries continue to plague Kiermaier and will cause him to likely suffer a setback in his counting stats for 2018 but he could be a help to fantasy owners in the second-half. Nothing is guaranteed but the odds are that he will resume his role as close to an everyday starter in their lineup. Now is the time to go grab him.--Jamie Mellor - RotoBallerSource: Tampa Bay Times

6/18:Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Wilmer Font came within one out of qualifying for a win Sunday versus the Yankees. He would go a career-high 4 2/3 innings allowing one run while striking out five. Font played for Oakland and the Dodgers in 2018 before getting to the Rays. He struggled mightily in those two stops but with the Rays, he has started to provide positive numbers. If Font can cross the threshold of five innings in a start, he could start earning some wins. However, until that happens, Font has limited value outside of very deep or AL-only formats.--Jamie Mellor - RotoBallerSource: ESPN.com

6/18:St. Louis Cardinals rookie starting pitcher Jack Flaherty tossed five scoreless innings on Sunday, allowing just two hits and three walks. He struck out seven. Flaherty didn't get the win, but his team did, as five pitchers combined to shut out the Cubs. Flaherty lowered his ERA to 2.66 and continues to be a must-start in all formats every time he's on the mound.--David A Marcillo - RotoBallerSource: MLB.com

6/18:Tampa Bay Rays third baseman Matt Duffy drove in two runs that proved crucial Sunday versus New York. Duffy would go 3-for-4 with one of those hits being a second-inning single. The single would drive in two runs to make the lead 3-0 and would end up being the difference in a 3-1 victory. Duffy is now batting .318 on the season. In his last healthy season in 2015, he batted .295 with 12 home runs and 12 stolen bases. Duffy's floor is fairly solid as long as he is healthy. Duffy was only 27 years old as the 2018 season started, so despite his slow start in the counting stats (runs, HR, RBI, steals), there is hope for a boost as the season goes on. He should be owned in deeper leagues, especially in AL-only formats.--Jamie Mellor - RotoBallerSource: ESPN.com

6/18:Los Angeles Dodgers Caleb Ferguson suffered his first career loss on Sunday in a 4-1 game against the Giants. The 21-year-old surrendered four runs (three earned) on two hits (both home runs) and a walk with six strikeouts in five innings. He now has a 7.59 ERA with 12 strikeouts and six walks in 10 2/3 IP. While Ferguson's strikeout potential is impressive, he will need to improve his command at the big league level before he can be trusted in fantasy leagues. He is worth a speculative roster spot in deep dynasty leagues.--Connelly Doan - RotoBallerSource: MLB.com

6/18:Baltimore Orioles utility man Jace Peterson had a nice day at the plate on Sunday in a 10-4 win over the Marlins. Peterson went 2-for-4 with a double, a home run (his first of the season), and four RBI. The 28-year-old now has a .196/.320/.308 slash line in 128 plate appearances. Peterson does now see enough playing time and has not shown the hitting skills to make him fantasy relevant at this time.--Connelly Doan - RotoBallerSource: MLB.com

6/18:Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Dylan Bundy turned in a mediocre start on Sunday against the Marlins but got the win in a 10-4 game thanks to his offense backing him up. Bundy pitched six innings, allowing four runs on five hits (including two two-run home runs from Justin Bour) and two walks with five strikeouts. Fantasy owners have seen two sides of Bundy throughout the season: the good Bundy who avoids giving up long balls, and the bad Bundy who has served up 18 HR. Overall, he now has a 5-7 record with a 3.81 ERA in 89 2/3 IP. Bundy will look to keep the ball in the park in his next outing Friday against the Braves.--Connelly Doan - RotoBallerSource: MLB.com

6/17:Cody Allen appears to be getting back to normal. Although he allowed a walk in the ninth inning on Sunday against the Twins, he still managed to pitch a scoreless inning and get his 14th save of the season. He's struck out 36 batters over 30 innings pitched, and has his ERA back below 4.00 with Sunday's outing (it's now 3.90). Allen has pitched scoreless relief appearances in four of his last five chances, which could mean his shaky May and early June performances will soon be nothing more than a bad memory.--Devon Taylor - RotoBallerSource: MLB.com

6/17:Justin Bour broke a two-game hitless streak on Sunday by blasting two homers against the Baltimore Orioles and driving in four runs. He's a mediocre source of power and walks for fantasy owners, with 12 HRs, 33 RBI, and 46 BB so far this season. Unfortunately he's only hitting .240 and playing on a bad Miami Marlins team. There's a reason he's only owned in 48 percent of Yahoo! leagues -- only 12 or 14-team deep leagues need to bother.--Devon Taylor - RotoBallerSource: MLB.com

6/17:Kansas City Royals second baseman Whit Merrifield exited Sunday's game against the Houston Astros after fouling a ball off his left knee. He is considered day-to-day with a left knee contusion. Merrifield has had a solid start to the 2018 season hitting with a .295/.372/.425 slash with 31 R, four HR, 23 RBI, and 15 SB. Merrifield should be owned in all fantasy formats due to his speed and batting average.--Rayden Lin - RotoBallerSource: Joel Goldberg

6/17:Javier Baez left Sunday night's game against the Cardinals in the third inning after taking a nasty 90 mph Jack Flaherty pitch directly in the left elbow. He appeared to be in a lot of pain and the decision to remove him from the game was made almost immediately. He's likely headed for X-Rays to check if anything is broken, so stay tuned for an update. Addison Russell took Baez's spot at shortstop on Sunday, but Ben Zobrist could get more games at Baez's usual second base spot if there's any serious injury involved.--Devon Taylor - RotoBallerSource: MLB.com

6/17:Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Nick Vincent will begin a rehab assignment Monday at Triple-A Tacoma. If this rehab stint goes well, Vincent could be back with the Mariners this weekend in Boston. Vincent currently has a 4.09 ERA, 1.32 WHIP, and 23 K in 22 innings this season. With new shot at saves, Vincent should not be owned in any fantasy formats.--Rayden Lin - RotoBallerSource: Greg Johns

6/17:Atlanta Braves catcher Kurt Suzuki was forced to leave Sunday's game versus San Diego after being hit on the head with a bat. After passing the concussion protocol, he is expected to play in the Braves next game versus Toronto on Tuesday. Suzuki is currently having a solid season, hitting a .273/.333/.466 with 23 runs, seven home runs and 24 RBI in 48 games. Suzuki is worth a look in deeper fantasy formats for those owners in need of a catcher.--Rayden Lin - RotoBallerSource: MLB.com

6/17:Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Julio Teheran pitched six no-hit innings in his return from the disabled list versus the San Diego Padres. Teheran finished the outing with 11 strikeouts, three walks and no hits in six innings of action. After this performance, Teheran improved his record to 5-4 with a 3.97 ERA and 67 strikeouts in 77 innings this season. Teheran should be owned in most fantasy formats due to the success in his previous seasons with the Braves.--Rayden Lin - RotoBallerSource: Mark Bowman

6/17:Los Angeles Angels closer Blake Parker was charged with a blown save in the Angels loss to the Oakland Athletics. This is the Angels league-leading 15th blown save this year. Coming into the ninth inning with a 5-3 lead, Parker allowed two runs to blow the save, and the Athletics wound up walking off the Angels in the 11th inning. Parker currently has seven saves this season with a 2.67 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 39 strikeouts in 33 2/3 innings. Parker is still worth owning in deeper leagues because of his usage in the ninth inning for the Halos.--Rayden Lin - RotoBallerSource: Jeff Fletcher
