Cole made another rehab start in AAA tonight, obviously dominating a helpless Rochester lineup. He went 4.1 innings, throwing exactly 70 pitches, and punched out 10 batters while allowing no runs. This was his third rehab start. The prior…
With the Twins holding onto a four run lead, they turned to Jax in the 8th, who threw a clean inning, punching out two hitters. While the closer job is currently occupied by someone else, I still love Ja for mid-season ratio help. He's let…
Pablo Lopez went 5 IP and gave up 2 ER on 5 H, 0 BB, and 5 K's against the Rockies. Lopez now has a 5.33 ERA and 1.21 WHIP through 76 IP. He has not had the results that fantasy owners expected when they took Lopez early in drafts…
Schwarber went 2 for 4 with a pair of solo shots and a pair of strikeouts. This is the kind of game we like to see from Scwarbs. However, the powerful lefty has been more often found pummeling the ball into the ground rather than lifting…
Nathan Eovaldi- P- TEX- Hot- Eovaldi picked up his first win in 3 starts since coming off the IL. He allowed 2 runs on 5 hits and a walk while striking out 5 in 7 IP. In the 3 post-IL starts Eovaldi has allowed 5 runs in 15.2 IP on 13 hits…

Guerrero went 2 for 4 with a solo shot, his 6th of the season. Six dingers by early June isn't exactly what you want in an investment like Guerrero, but make no mistake, he has been great at the dish this season. He is slashing .295/.389/…
Spencer Torkelson (1B - DET) - I wish I had a giant "sad face" emoji for this one, but the Tigers aren't waiting around for Torkelson any longer, sending him down to bring up Justyn-Henry Malloy. Torkelson hit 4 homers in the two weeks up…
Garrett Crochet (SP-CHW) was effective again on Saturday as he allowed 1 run on 5 hits and a walk while fanning 8 over 6 IP, although he did not factor into the decision against the Brewers. The 24 year-old southpaw fired 68 of his 103…

Remember draft day? Safe bat at the hot corner? Easy pick: Austin Riley. At shortstop, nobrainer: Francisco Lindor. At 2B, no safer pick than Ozzie Albies! Topshelf power at 1B: Only Olson seemed a sure thing (maybe Alonso). All these…
Gallen was pulled from his start just six pitches in due to a hamstring injury. Gallen has a decorated history of hamstring issues, which makes it all the more concerning. He referred to his hamstring injury prior in the year as "minor,"…
Skubal rebounded from his worst start of the season, which wasn't actually that bad, to deliver a dominant performance on Wednesday against Pittsburgh. The electric left-hander threw a season-high seven shutout innings, holding the Pirates…
The "Seager Heater" continued on Tuesday night as the 2023 WS MVP went deep for the 7th time in as many games. The off day Monday didn't do much too cool Seager's bat. He went 1 for 3 with a homer, three RBI, and a walk in Tuesday's…
Robert Gasser (SP - MIL) - Gasser went zero for zero with Justin Steele for 6 innings on Monday, allowing just 3 singles and fanning 7. Once again he didn't walk a batter, and for a guy that showed his lack of control in the minors to…

Brice Turang- 2B- MIL- Hot- Turang stole his 19th base of the season yesterday. He has not been caught since July 4 of last year and is working on a string of 36 successful steals. Turang is slashing .301/.356/.429 so is contributing other…

Cruz went 3-5 with two doubles on Tuesday, but more notably hit two baseballs over 120 EV, the first time that has ever been recorded in a single game by a single player in tracking history. In fact, he hit three balls over 115, which also…
Danny Jansen (C-TOR) went 3-5 with a homer, a 2B, 5 RBI, and an additional run scored as he batted 2nd against the White Sox on Monday afternoon. The 29 year-old has - as usual - missed part of the campaign while on the IL, but he's been…
We see starters turn into relievers all the time, but rarely is it that relievers, especially closers, turn back into starters. Hicks went five innings surrendering one earned run on a solo homer, but only punched out one batter. He now…
Jo Adell (OF-LAA) continued what appears to be a breakout campaign as he went 1-3 with a solo homer, a walk, and a stolen base against the Rangers on Saturday evening. The 25 year-old former first-round pick seemed to be a bust after…
