Soler and López traded punches during a chaotic donnybrook that erupted during the fifth inning at Angel Stadium after a high-and-inside pitch. Soler clobbered a two-run homer off López back in the opening frame before being drilled hit by a pitch his next time up. Amazingly, it was Braves manager Walt Weiss who delivered a textbook tackle to bring Soler to the ground and help break up the brawl while Mike Trout managed to corral López, who somehow held onto the baseball throughout the entire incident. There will undoubtedly be suspensions handed out by the league after one of the wildest on-field melees in recent years.

It’s a massive relief for the Rangers, and fantasy managers, after deGrom experienced right knee discomfort while warming up for Monday’s start against the Mariners where he struck out six and allowed one run over five innings. The 37-year-old fantasy ace will make his next start on Sunday against the Dodgers.

Schlittler brought the heat on a frigid evening at Yankee Stadium, where temperatures hovered in the low 40s throughout the night, averaging 96.6 and topping out at 98.8 mph on his fastball. The 25-year-old rising star retired six straight before giving up back-to-back hits in the third inning before serving up a two-run double to Nick Kurtz, which snapped a streak of 14 consecutive scoreless innings to open the year. He also gave up a ground-rule double to Tyler Soderstrom that brought home an additional run in the frame. He’s been leaning more on is cutter and sinker this season and the results have been phenomenal with a microscopic 1.62 ERA, 0.48 WHIP and 22/3 K/BB ratio across 16 2/3 innings. Simply put, he’s pitching like a fantasy ace right now. He’ll face the Rays on Sunday at Tropicana Field to close out a two-start week.

The box score doesn’t begin to tell the story, as once again, a vintage Alcantara outing. The 30-year-old wasn’t able to complete his second-consecutive shutout as he gave up a double and walk in the ninth, and two runs scored on a sac fly and a wild pitch in that frame after he exited. He struck out six, walked two, and wasn’t hit hard for the overwhelming majority of the game against a solid Cincinnati lineup. Alcantara will look to keep up this good run — good run seems like such an understatement — against the Tigers on Sunday. Fantasy managers who took a chance on Alcantara have to be thrilled.

Skenes took a no-hitter into the sixth, when Fernando Tatis Jr. singled with one out. Jake Cronenworth had already walked to lead off the inning, so the Padres had a threat going in a 2-0 game. Jackson Merrill, though, grounded into a double play to end it. Skenes lost the shutout when Xander Bogaerts homered with one out in the seventh and was removed immediately afterwards. Skenes has allowed precisely one run in both of his starts since his Oneil Cruz-fueled Opening Day disaster against the Mets. He’ll likely make his next start Monday versus the Nationals.

Crow-Armstrong took Rays reliever Yoendrys Gómez deep in the seventh inning for his first round-tripper of the season. He also recorded a pair of singles, stole his fourth base of the year, and scored three times in the one-sided affair at Tropicana Field. The 24-year-old fantasy standout hasn’t exactly torn the cover off the ball in the early portion of the year, hitting .256 (11-for-43) with one homer, four RBI and four steals through 11 games.

Schumaker added that they expect to receive the MRI results at some point Tuesday evening before they determine his next steps. It’s a notable development after deGrom managed to complete five innings against the Mariners on Monday, despite pitching through a minor knee issue that cropped up while warming up in the bullpen before the game. It sounds like the Rangers are merely proceeding with an abundance of caution in advance of deGrom’s next start on Sunday against the Dodgers. There should be an additional update on his status shortly.

Trout returns to center field and will bat second on Tuesday night following a one-game absence after being hit by a pitch during Sunday’s showdown against the division-rival Mariners. X-rays came back negative for any fractures and he’s ready to roll after getting some extra rest. The 34-year-old future Hall of Famer is hitting .212 (7-for-33) with two homers and two steals through 10 games this season.

It’s a devastating development for the Cubs, and fantasy managers, after Horton blossomed into an upper-echelon fantasy contributor during the second half of last season and looked like a rotation mainstay for years to come. The 24-year-old former top pitching prospect hit the injured list over the weekend with a forearm strain after leaving his second start of the season after just 17 pitches. It’s unclear whether he’ll undergo a full Tommy John reconstruction or a less invasive internal brace procedure, which would expedite his return to the majors. It’ll be Colin Rea and Javier Assad tasked with picking up the slack in Chicago’s rotation moving forward.

Astros general manager Dana Brown told reporters Brown will be reevaluated in two weeks and isn’t dealing with any ligament damage in his shoulder. It’s hardly an encouraging update after Brown was placed on the injured list over the weekend with a shoulder strain. The 27-year-old fantasy ace was off to an exceptional start to the season, allowing just one run with a 17/6 K/BB ratio over 10 2/3 innings. The best-case scenario would involve him beginning a throwing program in a couple of weeks without setbacks, but fantasy managers should still anticipate an extended absence since he’ll need time to build up his arm strength and pitch count before returning to Houston’s rotation.
