  • LAD Starting Pitcher #31

    Tyler Glasnow allowed two runs with four strikeouts over five innings in a loss to the Giants on Wednesday.
    Glasnow was solid in his return from the injured list, holding the Giants to two runs over five frames. Matt Chapman took him deep for a solo homer to lead off the fourth inning. A double and a base hit would bring one more run in before Glasnow escaped the frame. He tossed one more inning, ending his day after five with four strikeouts. The 30-year-old right-hander will take a 3.47 ERA, 0.96 WHIP, and a 147/33 K/BB ratio across 114 innings into a start against the Padres in San Diego next week.
  • NYY Center Fielder #24

    Jasson Domínguez went 2-for-4 with two home runs, three RBI, a walk, and a stolen base on Friday against the Mets.
    Working as the lead-off hitter for just the second time this season, Domínguez made his presence felt with a home run as the first batter of the game. That was somehow his first home run since all the way back on May 21st. He hit another in the fifth that again gave the Yankees a lead before their bullpen blew it later on. He also grounded out to make the final out in this game with Aaron Judge stranded on deck. Despite the lack of home run power to this point, he’s stolen 14 bases and has a .273 batting average with a .783 OPS. Those are solid marks to hang one’s hat on just past the halfway point of the season.
    Hold Muncy if placed on injured list
    Eric Samulski advises fantasy managers to "hold" Max Muncy if placed on the injured list, who has produced in a big way since the beginning of May, and discusses the outlook for Dodgers' call-up Esteury Ruiz.
  • NYY Starting Pitcher #0
    Marcus Stroman allowed seven hits and three runs with one walk and four strikeouts over five innings in a no-decision against the Mets on Friday.
    Stroman danced into and out of trouble and gave up tons of loud contact, but still managed to put himself in position to earn the win against his former team. It’s a marvel how he can ever be effective though with practically the least velocity in the entire league. He threw just two pitches over 90 mph in this game and still threw his sinker nearly 70% of the time against right-handed batters. With Clarke Schmidt’s injury, he figures to have a secure spot in this rotation though and lines up to face the Mariners next time out.
  • KC 2nd Baseman #40
    Royals signed INF Isan Díaz to a minor league contract.
    The 29-year-old former top prospect had been playing in the Mexican League where he was slashing .267/.372/.530 with 13 homers, 49 RBI, four stolen bases and a 44/33 K/BB ratio over 239 plate appearances for the Algodoneros de Union Laguna. He’ll add extra infield depth at the Triple-A level for the Royals.
  • BAL 3rd Baseman #26
    Orioles sent INF Emmanuel Rivera outright to Triple-A Norfolk.
    The 29-year-old infielder has now been promoted to the big leagues, designated for assignment and sent outright to Triple-A Norfolk twice in the past month. He’ll continue to function as surplus infield depth for the O’s.
  • BAL Relief Pitcher #51
    Orioles sent RHP Matt Bowman outright to Triple-A Norfolk.
    Bowman, 34, had been designated for assignment by the O’s on Wednesday but he passed through waivers unclaimed and will continue to function as extra bullpen depth at the Triple-A level. He posted a 5.79 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and a 17/6 K/BB ratio over 23 1/3 innings in 19 appearances out of the O’s bullpen.
  • COL Center Fielder #9
    Brenton Doyle is once again on the pine for Friday night’s skirmish against the White Sox.
    It’s the second time in the last three games that Doyle has found himself situated on the bench, both times coming against right-handed pitchers. He has struggled mightily at the dish this season and if he winds up on the short side of a platoon role in center field, any fantasy value that he may have had in deeper leagues falls away. Mickey Moniak will start in his place once again and will bat fifth for the Rockies against White Sox’ right-hander Adrian Houser.
  • CWS Shortstop #83
    Colson Montgomery will start at shortstop and bat seventh in his MLB debut against the Rockies in Colorado on Friday evening.
    The 23-year-old shortstop isn’t being brought up to sit around, so expect that he’ll be the team’s starting shortstop going forward. Chase Meidroth will slide over and play second base, which will significantly cut into the playing time of Lenyn Sosa going forward.
  • MIL 1st Baseman #12
    Rhys Hoskins is not in the Brewers’ starting lineup for Friday night’s soiree against the Marlins.
    There haven’t been any rumblings about any sort of injury for Hoskins, but this is the second time that he has found himself on the pine in the team’s last four ballgames. Jake Bauers will start in his place at first base and bat seventh against Marlins’ right-hander Sandy Alcantara.
  • CLE Shortstop #4
    Brayan Rocchio is not in the Guardians’ starting lineup for Friday night’s battle against the Tigers.
    It looks to be just a routine night off for the 24-year-old infielder. Daniel Schneemann will slide over and cover the shortstop position in his absence while Angel Martinez will draw a start at second base and bat ninth against Tigers’ right-hander Reese Olson.
  • DET Shortstop #28
    Javier Báez is not in the Tigers’ starting lineup for Friday’s series opener against the Guardians in Cleveland.
    Báez has shouldered a heavy workload for the Tigers this season and made a couple of rare gaffes in the field on Thursday evening, so manager A.J. Hinch will give him a breather to reset. Zach McKinstry will slide over and cover shortstop and bat sixth for the Tigers against Guardians’ right-hander Slade Cecconi.
