Wilmer Flores hit three homers and drove in eight runs while helping the Giants to a 9-1 win over the Athletics on Friday.

Well, that’s a pretty good game. Flores got the party started with a grand slam in the third inning, but he was far from done. He connected on a three-run homer in the sixth, and then hit a measly solo blast two innings later. Flores is now up to 10 homers on the season, and he’s on pace to clobber his previous season-high total of 23 set back in 2023. There’s likely to be some power regression, but fantasy managers have to be pleased as punch to see this kind of production.
Logan Webb

SF Starting Pitcher #62

Logan Webb fired eight innings of one-run baseball to get a win over the Athletics on Friday.

Webb took a shutout into the eighth inning before giving up an RBI double to Tyler Soderstrom. Outside of that, it was a sensational effort from the 28-year-old, and he allowed just five hits with two walks along with four strikeouts. Webb now has a glistening 2.42 ERA in 2025, and he’ll be back on the bump against the Royals on Wednesday.
Shohei Ohtani

LAD Designated Hitter #17

Shohei Ohtani hit his 16tth homer of the season, but the Dodgers fell by a score of 6-2 to the Angels on Friday.

Ohtani also singled and walked, but the big news of course is his solo homer. That’s the third-straight game that the reigning MVP has gone deep, and also the third-consecutive contest where he’s picked up multiple hits. It’s borderline impossible to succinctly try and describe how good at baseball Shohei Ohtani is.
Corbin Burnes

ARI Starting Pitcher #39

Corbin Burnes hurled six scoreless innings with 10 strikeouts to pick up a win over the Rockies on Friday in a 8-0 win for the Diamondbacks.

That’s back-to-back starts where Burnes hasn’t allowed a run, and yes, it still counts if you’re facing the Rockies. The 30-year-old did walk three, but he allowed only two hits to go with the aforementioned strikeouts. This is the version of Burnes fantasy managers signed up for when they took him in the first two rounds of fantasy drafts. He now sports a 2.56 ERA and 43/22 K/BB ratio over eight starts, and he should be in fantasy lineups even with a matchup against the Dodgers in Los Angeles next week.
Cal Raleigh

SEA Catcher #29

Cal Raleigh hit a two-run homer while helping the Mariners to a 5-1 win over the Padres on Friday.

Raleigh extended the Seattle lead to 5-0 with his 14th homer of the season, and it came off Stephen Kolek. The 28-year-old also drew a walk, and he’s now the proud owner of a .942 OPS and 30 RBI. Big Dumper can hit, folks, and he should remain one of the best backstops in all eligible fantasy leagues for the remainder of 2025.
Cole Ragans

KC Starting Pitcher #55

Cole Ragans left Friday’s game against the Cardinals with left groin tightness.

Ragans had already missed a start this year with a groin injury. He returned against the White Sox on May 5 and struck out 11, which understandably was taken as a sign that he was over the injury. Ragans velocity was down before he left after 83 pitches and five innings against the Cardinals Friday. A trip to the injured list isn’t out of the question at this point.
Chris Sale

ATL Starting Pitcher #51

Chris Sale limited the Red Sox to one run in seven innings and struck out eight in the Braves’ 4-2 victory Friday.

Sale won the duel of former White Sox aces traded to the Red Sox, as Garrett Crochet gave up two runs over seven innings. The victory was just his second in 10 starts this season. He has a 1.72 ERA in his last five starts, a big improvement over his 6.17 mark in his first five turns. He’ll face the Nationals next.
Riley Greene

DET Center Fielder #31

Riley Greene homered, doubled and drove in three runs on Friday night, leading the Tigers to a 5-4 victory over the Blue Jays in the opener of their three-game series in Toronto.

Greene opened the scoring in the ballgame as he walloped a first-pitch curveball from Bowden Francis for a 402-foot (104.3 mph EV) solo shot to lead off the second inning. The 24-year-old outfielder then broke the game open with a two-run double off of Francis in the fifth that made it a 4-0 game. He finished the evening 2-for-4 plus a walk and is now hitting .278/.332/.521 with 11 homers, 30 RBI and one stolen base on the season.
Byron Buxton

MIN Center Fielder #25

Byron Buxton has cleared the concussion protocol and will be available off of the Twins’ bench on Friday night against the Brewers.

It looked ominous when Carlos Correa landed on the 7-day concussion injured list and Buxton was held out of the lineup on Friday night, but for once he gets a positive injury update and has been cleared to return. The 31-year-old outfielder has slugged 10 homers and swiped eight bases on the season while hitting .261/.312/.522 through his first 173 plate appearances.
Ezequiel Tovar

COL Shortstop #14

Rockies activated INF Ezequiel Tovar from the 10-day injured list.

The dynamic 23-year-old shortstop has been shelved since mid-April due to a hip contusion. His bat is desperately needed in the middle of a Rockies’ lineup that has been struggling to generate consistent offense. Before landing on the shelf, Tovar was slashing .212/.257/.303 with zero homers, four RBI and two stolen bases in his first 66 at-bats.
