Griffin Jax

TB Relief Pitcher #22

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Griffin Jax allowed three runs (two earned) on four hits in four innings against the Red Sox on Thursday.

Jax struck out three and walked one while throwing 59 pitches in this one. The former reliever showed off a six-pitch mix in this one, using five pitches at least 14 percent of the time. He threw plenty of strikes with his sinker and four-seamer and was able to use his changeup for whiffs against both righties and lefties. However, no other pitches really missed many bats, and he had just a 10 percent swinging strike rate. We’ll need to see a little more strikeout upside from Jax if he’s going to be relied on in fantasy leagues. He should be able to push to five innings next week against the Blue Jays, but we’d hold off on starting him for now.
Liam Hicks

MIA Catcher #34

Liam Hicks went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a 4-3 win over the Orioles on Thursday.

Hicks now has nine home runs and 34 RBI in 35 games this season. Last year, he hit six home runs and knocked in 45 runs in 119 games. What the 26-year-old is doing this year is tremendous. By opening up his batting stance and looking to get the ball out in front more, Hicks has taken an elite contact approach and made it an elite contact approach with league-average hard contact and barrel rates. Given his ability to make high-level swing decisions, he is consistently in good positions to make meaningful contact. This breakout looks very real.
J.T. Ginn

ATH Starting Pitcher #35

JT Gin was exceptional during Thursday’s victory over the Phillies, racking up eight strikeouts over eight innings of one-run baseball.

Ginn allowed just three hits on the night while issuing only one base on balls. The only blemish on his day came on a solo home run off the bat of Kyle Schwarber in the fourth inning. Aside from that one pitch, he was brilliant. Ginn generated 10 swings and misses on 96 offerings in the contest, posting a CSW of 29 percent. He now holds a 3.62 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and a 31/15 K/BB ratio over 37 1/3 innings through his first nine appearances (six starts). He’ll try to keep the good times rolling when he squares off against the Cardinals on Wednesday.
Shota Imanaga

CHC Starting Pitcher #18

Shota Imanaga fanned 10 while allowing one run over six innings in a victory over the Reds on Thursday.

The Cubs have to be feeling really fortunate that Imanaga stuck around in the offseason. He’s 4-2 with a 2.28 ERA that ranks 11th in the majors. He’s tied for sixth with 53 strikeouts, and he’s 10th with a 0.93 WHIP. He’ll face the Braves on the road next week.
Jake McCarthy

COL Left Fielder #31

Jake McCarthy blasted a go-ahead grand slam in the eighth inning on Thursday, propelling the Rockies to a 6-2 victory over the Mets.

The Rockies entered the home half of the eighth inning embattled in a 2-2 tie with the Mets. They got things going with a pair of singles and a walk though, that’s when Jake McCarthy strolled to the dish. He walloped a 1-0 fastball from Craig Kimbrel for a majestic 448-foot (107.4 mph EV) grand slam that changed the entire complexion of the game. McCarthy also had a game-tying RBI double in the sixth inning. It was the first grand slam of McCarthy’s career. He finished the day 2-for-4 and is now hitting .275/.346/.507 with a pair of homers and 14 RBI on the season.
Spencer Jones

NYY Center Fielder #78

Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports that the Yankees plan to promote top prospect Spencer Jones from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday.

With Jasson Domínguez (shoulder) heading to the injured list, Jones will finally get an opportunity to show the Yankees what he can do at the big league level. The 24-year-old slugger was hitting .258/.366/.592 with 11 homers, 41 RBI, seven stolen bases and a 32 percent strikeout rate in his first 142 plate appearances at Triple-A Scranton Wilkes-Barre. He’s worth a look in deeper mixed leagues for as long as he remains with the Bombers’, though he could be sent right back out once Domínguez or Giancarlo Stanton are ready to return.
Cody Bellinger

NYY Left Fielder #35

Cody Bellinger went 3-for-4 with a triple, two RBI and a walk in the Yankees’ 9-2 drubbing of the Rangers on Thursday.

Paul Goldschmidt and Bellinger both had Joc Pederson-aided triples in the first today. Bellinger’s was a liner in front of Pederson that a faster right fielder probably would have made a diving play on. Pederson tried to and had the ball bounce over him. It was Bellinger’s AL-leading third triple of the year. His OPS is all of the way up .924 with him having opened May 14-for-26 with 10 extra-base hits in seven games.
Roman Anthony

BOS Left Fielder #19

Red Sox placed OF Roman Anthony on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to May 4, with a right wrist sprain.

This isn’t completely unexpected, as the Red Sox have had to play shorthanded for most of the week while Anthony attempted to work his way back from this issue. He hasn’t suffered any setbacks, he’s simply not progressing as quickly as they would have hoped and it’s still going to be at least a few more days before he’s ready. Mickey Gaspar was recalled from Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move.
Jasson Domínguez

NYY Left Fielder #24

Yankees’ manager Aaron Boone told reporters Thursday afternoon that Jasson Dominguez was diagnosed with a low-grade left AC sprain in his left shoulder and would require a trip to the injured list.

The 23-year-old slugger sustained the shoulder injury, as well as a head injury, when he crashed into the wall during the first inning of Thursday’s contest against the Rangers. So far, all concussion tests have come back negative. When asked about a timeline, Boone noted that Dominguez would miss at least “a few weeks”. Fantasy managers can expect to be without him for most, if not all, of May.
Rhett Lowder

CIN Starting Pitcher #25

Rhett Lowder’s exit Thursday against the Cubs was due to right shoulder discomfort.

Bummer. At least the Reds are getting Nick Lodolo back on Tuesday, but they might need to again turn to Chase Petty if Lowder lands on the IL, as seems likely. Lowder ended up being charged with three runs in three-plus innings today against the Cubs, as both guys he left on in the fourth came around to score.
