  • NYY Starting Pitcher #54

    Fried allowed four hits, walked two and struck out five while improving to 4-1 with a 2.09 ERA on the season. He’s 23-6 in his first year and a month as a Yankee. Boston’s Garrett Crochet, at 21-8, is the only other pitcher with at least 19 wins since the beginning of 2025. Fried will face the Orioles this weekend.
  • NYY Right Fielder #99
    Judge has 47 career two-homer games, but this is just his 11th two-double game. It’s the 12th time he’s had three extra-base hits. His 11th homer of this season put him at 379 for his career. He overtook Matt Williams tonight and moved into a tie with Orlando Cepeda and Tony Perez for 75th place on the all-time list. As far as doubles, with Nos. 207 and 208 tonight, he’s now just nine away from cracking the top 1000 of all-time, at least according to Baseball Reference.
  • NYY Designated Hitter #27
    Stanton underwent an MRI earlier on Monday that revealed a low-grade calf strain. He’ll need some additional time off to put the issue to bed, but isn’t expected to require a lengthy absence. The 36-year-old veteran’s departure opens the door for Jasson Domínguez to continue getting opportunities at DH against right-handed pitching.
  • MIN Starting Pitcher #61
    He struck out five. The two runs came in the fifth after he walked back-to-back batters to start the inning and gave up a single and a sac fly. Priot to that, he’d retired 12 of 13 batters. Control could be an issue for Prielipp, but the stuff is there for him to continue to contribute. His excellent slider was especially effective tonight; he got first-pitch strikes 10 of the 11 times he used it to start an at-bat, and the Mariners were 0-for-6 when they put it into play. He’ll get the Blue Jays on Saturday.
  • BOS Starting Pitcher #55
    It’s Suarez’s third scoreless start in last four outings, but this came with a few more swings and misses than the other two. It’s his sixth career 10-strikeout game. Incredibly, four of those have come in his last 14 starts (the other three with the Phillies down the stretch last season). He totaled two in his first 111 starts. The gem makes Suarez 2-2 with a 3.09 ERA this season. He’ll have his next start come Sunday at home versus the Astros.
  • STL Shortstop #26
    Wetherholt’s clutch homer against Pirates closer Dennis Santana traveled 408 feet into the right-center field seats. It was his only hit in four at-bats, but it ignited a four-run rally as the Cardinals erased a two-run deficit after being shut out through eight innings. The 23-year-old rookie sensation has homered in back-to-back games and is up to six round-trippers through 28 games. The early returns suggest he’s on track to be one of the top second basemen in the fantasy landscape for years to come.
  • CLE 2nd Baseman #87
    Bazzana, the first-overall selection in the 2024 MLB Draft, will make his big-league debut on Tuesday against the Rays at Progressive Field. The 23-year-old second baseman was raking at Triple-A Columbus, slashing .287/.422/.511 with two homers and eight steals in addition to nearly as many walks (21) as strikeouts (25) over 24 games. He may not project as an immediate fantasy superstar, but he profiles as an impact power/speed contributor at a relatively thin position. He’s expected to slot into the lower third of Cleveland’s lineup initially, though his advanced hit tool gives him a chance to climb into a more prominent role over time. He’s worth a speculative roster spot in all formats.
  • CLE Starting Pitcher #77
    Messick struck out the side in the opening frame and continued rolling from there, scattering three baserunners over five frames and carrying a shutout into the sixth inning before finally meeting some pushback. He issued a leadoff walk to veteran Yandy Díaz before lefty-masher Ryan Vilade delivered a run-scoring single with two outs that chased him from the contest after 95 pitches (58 strikes). The unheralded 25-year-old rookie isn’t overpowering, but he manages to keep hitters off balance by changing speeds and mixing locations. He’s been a revelation this season with a sparkling 1.73 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 38/10 K/BB ratio across 36 1/3 innings over six starts. He’ll close out a two-start week with a challenging road matchup against the Athletics on Sunday.
  • LAD Starting Pitcher #17
    All indications are that Ohtani is healthy, with Roberts noting there are several factors at play, including that he won’t be pitching on his usual six days of rest. He also pointed out that the Dodgers close out the series with an early-afternoon game on Wednesday, meaning the added workload on the mound would likely take him out of the lineup for the finale. The 31-year-old two-way superstar was limited to pitching exclusively earlier this month against the Mets over minor concerns about his throwing shoulder. Fantasy managers should anticipate Los Angeles continuing to approach his workload with caution, especially this early in the season.
  • SD Right Fielder #23
    Tatis makes his fourth appearance of the season at the keystone as he creeps closer towards gaining eligibility at one of the weakest position groups in the fantasy landscape. It’s his second straight start at second base. The 27-year-old fantasy standout has been on a roll lately, hitting .296 (16-for-54) with eight RBI and three steals over his last 15 games following a frosty start to the year at the dish.
