Cole Phillips

SEA Starting Pitcher

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Mariners acquired RHP Cole Phillips from the Braves as part of a five-player trade.

Phillips was a 2022 second-round pick despite undergoing Tommy John surgery a couple of months before the draft. The 20-year-old offers plenty of long-term upside, assuming that he returns with the same stuff he showed in high school.

Aaron Judge

NYY Right Fielder #99

Aaron Judge went 2-for-4 with two runs scored, a home run and four RBI against the Orioles on Monday.

Judge’s home run was his 14th of the season. He hit a two-run shot off Shane Baz in the first inning. The 34-year-old outfielder didn’t miss an opportunity to cash in late with a two-run single in the eighth inning that put the Yankees up 9-1. Judge is hitting .272 with a 1.057 OPS and 27 RBI on the season.

Shane Baz

BAL Starting Pitcher #34

Shane Baz allowed six runs (five earned) in 5 2/3 innings and took the loss against the Yankees on Monday.

Baz gave up five hits, walked five and struck out four. He fell to 1-3 with the loss. Baz’ day started with allowing a double to Trent Grisham and a two-run home run to Aaron Judge. It didn’t get much better from there as he allowed six runs, though one was unearned. Baz’ 4.49 xFIP isn’t much better than his 4.99 ERA. He’s not a recommended option at home against the Athletics this weekend.

Cam Schlittler

NYY Starting Pitcher #31

Cam Schlittler allowed one run in 5 2/3 innings and got the win in the Yankees’ 12-1 victory over the Orioles on Monday.

Schlittler gave up seven hits, walked three and struck out four. He improved to 5-1 on the season with the win and is now sporting a 1.52 ERA. Schlittler left the top of the sixth inning with the bases loaded and two outs, but Jake Bird struck out Jeremiah Jackson to end the frame. With Tarik Skubal set for surgery, Schlittler is firmly in the American League Cy Young award mix. He’s lined up to start against the Brewers on the road on Saturday.

Dillon Dingler

DET Catcher #13

Dillon Dingler went 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI against the Red Sox on Monday.

Dingler was sitting on 0-for-3 before he came up in the eighth inning and two-out, two-run double off Red Sox reliever Garrett Whitlock to bring the Tigers within a run. Dingler already has 25 RBI in 30 games so far this year after driving in 57 in 126 games last season.

Jarren Duran

BOS Left Fielder #16

Jarren Duran went 3-for-5 with a three-run home run and a stolen base against the Tigers on Monday.

The home run was Duran’s fourth of the season. He hit a three-run home run off Ricky Vanasco in the seventh inning. Duran also recorded his sixth stolen base of the season. After a rough start to the year, he’s hit a home run in three of his last four games.

Aroldis Chapman

BOS Relief Pitcher #44

Aroldis Chapman tossed a scoreless ninth inning and got the save against the Tigers on Monday.

Chapman entered the ninth inning with a one-run lead and made quick work of the Tigers with a scoreless inning in just 13 pitches. In a year full of close chaos already, the 38-year-old flamethrower has a 0.77 ERA and has been one of the most reliable options out there.

Shea Langeliers

ATH Catcher #23
Athletics placed C Shea Langeliers on the paternity list.

Langeliers launches two homers on his wife’s birthday on Saturday before she gave birth to their first child on Sunday morning. The 28-year-old slugging backstop is going to take some time away from the club to be with his family for the next couple days while Austin Wynns and newly acquired Jonah Heim handle the catching duties.

Jonah Heim

ATH Catcher #20
Athletics acquired C Jonah Heim from the Braves for cash considerations.

The Athletics are undoubtedly very familiar with Heim’s work since he began his career with the club before becoming the starting backstop for the division-rival Rangers. The 30-year-old heads out to West Sacramento after being removed from Atlanta’s 40-man roster earlier on Monday. He’ll provide the Athletics with some additional depth behind Austin Wynns while Shea Langeliers is away on paternity leave for a couple days this week.
