Salvador Perez

KC Catcher #13

Salvador Perez went 2-for-5 with one RBI in the Royals’ win over the Astros on Tuesday.

Perez’s biggest hit of the night was a long single to center field that scored Garrett Hampson from second base to secure the win. It was the Royals’ only hit of the extra frame, but it proved to be enough after James McArthur pitched a scoreless top half of the inning to keep the Astros off the board. Perez, 34, is now hitting .341 with two home runs and 10 RBI on the season and has tallied five multi-hit games in his first 11 contests.
Yordan Alvarez

HOU Left Fielder #44

Yordan Alvarez went 4-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Tuesday’s loss to the Royals.

Alvarez singled in each of the first two innings of this game and doubled home Mauricio Dubón in the fourth inning to give the Astros their third run of the day. An early 3-0 lead for the Astros proved to be insufficient, as the Royals rallied for a three-run fifth inning before winning it in the 10th inning. Alvarez is on a tear to start the season, hitting .347 with four home runs, 11 RBI, and three doubles. He continues to be one of the top bats in a potent Astros lineup.
Shea Langeliers

OAK Catcher #23

Shea Langeliers crushed three homers on Tuesday, leading the Athletics to a 4-3 comeback victory over the Rangers.

Unreal. Langeliers put together one of the most memorable nights of his career in this one, taking Rangers ace Nathan Eovaldi deep in the second inning before going deep off relievers David Robertson and José Leclerc in the seventh and ninth innings, respectively. It was his first-career three-homer performance and just his third-ever multi-homer effort.
Sonny Gray

STL Starting Pitcher #54

Sonny Gray pitched five scoreless inning while striking out five batters and earning the win in Tuesday’s win over the Phillies.

Gray, who was making his 2024 debut in this one, was sharp for most of the day. The only time Gray allowed more than one base runner came in the fifth inning, when he gave up back-to-back singles to Nick Castellanos and Brandon Marsh. Aside from that, the three-time All-Star was largely in control against a potent Phillies lineup. Gray is slated to make his next start against Oakland, whom he pitched for over the first five years of his career.
Ronald Acuna Jr.

ATL Right Fielder #13

Ronald Acuña went 2-for-3 with three steals and three runs scored in Tuesday’s win over the Mets.

Acuña also added a walk in this one. The 2023 NL MVP was a run-scoring catalyst all night, consistently putting himself in scoring position and making the most of RBI hits from Ozzie Albies and Austin Riley. Acuña is batting a meager .256 on the year but has scored 12 times and reached base eight times in his last five games. He’ll continue to find ways to provide fantasy value even as he searches for his first homer of the 2024 campaign.
Chad Green

TOR Relief Pitcher #57

Chad Green pitches 1 1/3 scoreless innings to close out the Blue Jays’ 5-3 win over the Mariners on Tuesday.

Green walked one and struck out one and was in no real danger of giving away the game. He now has two saves on the season and has been the most reliable member of the Blue Jays’ bullpen. However, his time as the closer may be coming to an end with Erik Swanson likely back this week and Jordan Romano not far behind.
George Kirby

SEA Starting Pitcher #68

George Kirby allowed five runs on eight hits in four innings in a loss to the Blue Jays on Tuesday.

After a great first outing against the Red Sox, this is now two straight poor starts for Kirby, who has allowed 11 earned runs on 17 hits over his last 7 2/3 innings. On Tuesday, Kirby struck out just three and posted an abysmal nine percent whiff rate. His command was still elite and didn’t register a single walk, but his pitches are just not crisp right now. It certainly hasn’t been what you wanted to see from Kirby, who was routinely drafted as a top-ten starter, but it’s too early in the season to panic.
Tyler Glasnow

LAD Starting Pitcher #31

Tyler Glasnow pitched seven scoreless innings while allowing just three hits and striking out 14 batters, earning the win on Tuesday against the Twins.

Tuesday’s outing against the Twins was undoubtedly Glasnow’s best of the year. In addition to striking out 14 batters, Glasnow put just three runners on base and, at one point, struck out six straight batters. He also found himself in just one three-ball count on the day. To say he was dominant would be an understatement, as Glasnow kept the Twins guessing all night. He’s now pushed his record to 3-0 on the season and has been very solid over his last two starts. Glasnow will look to stay out in his next outing against the Nationals.
Clay Holmes

NYY Relief Pitcher #35

Clay Holmes threw a scoreless ninth inning to earn a save in a 3-2 win over the Marlins on Tuesday.

Holmes didn’t allow a single baserunner and now has a league-leading five saves on the season. The Yankees have ten wins but haven’t been putting up huge numbers on offense, which has allowed Holmes to rack up saves early on. He could be among the league leaders by the end of the season.
Carlos Rodon

NYY Starting Pitcher #55

Carlos Rodón allowed two runs (none earned) on four hits in six innings in a win over the Marlins on Tuesday.

Rodón struck out six and walked two on the day, lowering his season ERA to 1.72. He induced a solid 24 percent whiff rate but had a disappointing 24 percent CSW. While the ratios have been solid so far, Rodón is not as dynamic as we’re used to seeing. He has 13 strikeouts in 15 2/3 innings, and the slider is not missing bats the way we’re used to seeing. His four-seam fastball also averaged 94.3 mph tonight, which is down almost two mph from last year. The new cutter is helping him to get weak contact, and he’s certainly been good for your fantasy ratios, but he’s not back to being the ace we’ve come to know, and he gets a tough text next week against the Blue Jays.
