Imai authored one of the strangest performances of the season, somehow holding the Rangers hitless for six innings despite issuing four walks and recording just two strikeouts. He threw only 57 of 97 pitches for strikes, but stayed around the zone enough to avoid damage, retiring 15 of the final 16 batters he faced. Okert followed with a scoreless seventh before Santa made his big-league debut, retiring the final six hitters in impressive fashion to complete the first combined no-hitter in the majors since 2024. Imai remains a challenging pitcher to forecast given that he’s barely throwing his splitter in games at this point. He’ll face the Brewers at home to wrap up a two-start week on Sunday.

Schwarber took Padres starter Griffin Canning deep to right field in the opening frame for his first big fly since missing three games due to illness last week. The 33-year-old veteran slugger has done most of his damage since the start of May, leaving the yard an astounding 10 times in 20 contests during that span. He’s spent the last few years cementing his legacy as one of the most consistent power hitters of his generation and is on pace to eclipse the lofty 45-homer plateau for the fourth time in the last five years.

Wood crushed a tone-setting 412-foot leadoff homer to right-center field that left his bat at 107.7 mph, per Statcast. It was his 14th home run of the season and his fourth leadoff blast. He accounted for one of six Nationals homers in a one-sided rout, with Curtis Mead recording his first career multi-homer game while CJ Abrams, Jacob Young and Luis García Jr. also went deep. The 23-year-old emerging franchise cornerstone is putting together a remarkable all-around fantasy campaign, slashing .267/.405/.533 with 47 runs scored, 14 homers, 35 RBI and eight steals through 55 games.

Marte recorded his third consecutive three-hit performance, tallying a season-high four hits in this one, as he continues to snap out of an extended cold spell at the outset of the year. The switch-hitting 32-year-old fantasy star smacked a game-tying double into shallow left field in the fifth inning off Giants starter Landen Roupp before adding a two-run single to left-center field in the sixth against reliever Joel Peguero. He’s hitting a surreal .429 (26-for-61) with three homers and 17 RBI over his last 15 games.

The move is now official. Cease is facing a multi-week absence after suffering a mild hamstring strain during Sunday’s start against the Pirates. The 30-year-old upper-echelon fantasy starter has delivered a strong 3.05 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 92/26 K/BB ratio across 62 innings over 11 starts in his Blue Jays debut this season. The hope for Toronto and fantasy managers is that he’ll be ready to take the ball again when first eligible to return in early June.

Misiorowski won’t get his scoreless month as a result of two singles and an RBI groundout in the sixth today. He had a no-hitter before that and was up to 29 1/3 scoreless innings in May. Overall, he’s allowed 11 hits, walked six and struck out 49 in 31 1/3 innings this month. Misiorowski averaged 101.1 mph with his 73 fastballs today and hit 100 on the gun 57 times. He’s now 5-2 with a 1.83 ERA, if he can stay healthy, the Brewers should have a real shot in October this time around. He’ll face the Astros this weekend.

Alvarez is back at DH and hitting third following a brief one-game absence due to back discomfort. The 28-year-old middle-of-the-order force is hitting .208 (15-for-72) with three homers and four RBI in 21 games since the start of May. Back issues can be tricky and sometimes recurring, but there doesn’t appear to be significant concern moving forward, which is a relief for fantasy managers.

Guerrero receives some extra time off to rest and recover after taking a pitch off his right elbow during Sunday’s series finale against the Pirates. The positive news for the Blue Jays and fantasy managers is that X-rays came back negative for any fractures. The 27-year-old fantasy superstar isn’t completely out of the woods yet, but all signs point to him returning to Toronto’s lineup this week. It’ll be Lenyn Sosa taking over at first base in his absence.

Vitiello cautioned that nothing is final, but it does seem more likely than not that Webb returns to the San Francisco rotation in the coming days. The 29-year-old has been out of action since May 6, and reportedly hasn’t dealt with knee pain in any of his starts. Webb might be on a stricter-than-normal pitch count, but there’s still a great chance for him to pick up a win against the lowly Rockies if/when that outing comes to fruition.

Lindor has also resumed baseball activities like fielding grounders and hitting in the cage. The 32-year-old will assuredly need a rehab assignment after missing over a month thus far with his calf strain, but this is the most positive development given for the shortstop since he suffered that injury. If all continues to progress, there’s a good chance that Lindor will be back before the start of July.
