Dillon Dingler, C, Detroit Tigers Dingler went 3-6 with 2 R, HR, 3 RBI, 2 K on two hard hit balls. Dingler has been a luxurious surprise for fantasy given both his ability to hit for average and power at...

Gunnar Henderson, SS, Baltimore Orioles Henderson went 0-4 with a K and one hard hit ball. He's slashing a putrid .195/.272/.329 in June. His 24.8% Pull Air rate is by far the highest in his career, and I wonder if...

Zack Wheeler, SP, Philadelphia Phillies Wheeler went 7 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 14 K. I was very cautious of Wheeler coming back from his injury due to age, but it appears my caution was not rewarded. Wheeler...

Ian Seymour, SP, Tampa Bay Rays Seymour went 6 IP, 3 H, 1 ER, 1 BB, 8 K on five hard hit balls. Seymour is used by the Rays as both a reliever and starter, but he's been starting slightly...

Dylan Crews, OF Washington Nationals Crews went 2-4 with 3 R, 1 K, on one hard hit ball. The former 3rd overall pick was really underwhelming in 2024 and 2025, but that's a bit harsh given his age. Crews is...

Sal Stewart, 1B, Cincinnati Reds Stewart went 2-3 with R, HR, 4 RBI, BB, K on two hard hit balls. It's been a rough June for the youngest, as he's slashing just .212/.328/.365 this month. I know there's a lot...

Junior Caminero, 3B, Tampa Bay Rays Caminero went 3-3 with 3 R, 2 2B, 2 BB on two hard hit balls. Many were worried about Caminero regressing due to the ballpark change, and while he isn't on pace to hit...

Jakob Marsee, OF, Miami Marlins Marsee went 0-3 with 1 K on one hard hit ball. Marsee posted a .841 OPS in 234 PA's last year, so many pegged the youngster as a breakout candidate in 2026. Unfortunately, the breakout...

Michael Harris II, OF, Atlanta Braves Harris went 2-5 with R, HR, 2 RBI, K on three hard hit balls. Harris went 20-20 last year, so he's clearly not a true breakout, but we have never seen underlying offensive numbers...

A.J. Ewing, OF, New York Mets Ewing had an eventful big league debut, going 1-2 with 2 R, 3B, 2 RBI, 3 BB on two hard hit balls. Ewing was a fourth round pick in the 2023 Draft and is...

Alec Burleson, 1B, St. Louis Cardinals Burleson went 3-5 with R, 3 RBI, K on two hard hit balls. Burleson is truly an unsung hero in the fantasy baseball space. His 13/11 K/BB ratio makes him super relevant in points...

Garrett Mitchell, OF, Milwaukee Brewers Mitchell went 2-4 with R, 3B, RBI, and K on two hard hit balls. Mitchell's offensive profile is immensely polarizing. A 60% hard hit rate and 48% LASS are truly eye-popping, and they're backed by...

Ben Rice, C, New York Yankees Rice came in for a pinch-hit AB in today's game and swatted a solo homer. Rice is now slashing .342/.490/.763. He's doing some irrationally good things right now, including a 74% hard hit rate,...

Carter Jensen, C, Kansas City Royals Jensen homered yet again, going 1-3 with a BB and K. His hit was the only one the Royals put together on the day, so it came at an opportune time. I think Jensen...

Kevin McGonigle, SS, Detroit Tigers One of the best pure hitters in the minors has cracked the big league roster. While there are no guarantees in prospecting, McGonigle could not have built himself a better offensive resume in the minors....

William Contreras, C, Milwaukee Brewers Contreras was a staple for fantasy managers looking to gain an edge at a thin position. He posted an xwOBACON over .380 every year of his career and a barrel rate over 9%. 2025 was...

Pete Alonso, 1B, Baltimore Orioles Alonso has been a consistent fantasy producer since his rookie year in 2019. Alonso has displayed some variance year-to-year, but he's played in over 152 games in every season (except 2020 where he played...

Cal Raleigh, C, Seattle Mariners Raleigh was a solid catching option from 2022-2024, hitting 91 homers over the course of those three seasons. Well, as we all know, Raleigh exploded in 2025, clubbing 60 homers and stealing 14 bags to...

Paul Skenes, SP, Pittsburgh Pirates Skenes' talent is not something up for debate. He's a ground ball getter, who punches out tons of guys, and limits contact. It's only been two seasons, but it's only a moderate hyperbole to say...

Jac Caglianone, 1B, Kansas City Royals Caglianone had a down rookie season on the surface, slashing just .157/.237/.295. Very uninspiring for such a promising prospect. However, given Caglianone's effectively free price at 255 ADP, I can't help but draft him...

Gunnar Henderson, SS, Baltimore Orioles Henderson went 1-2 with 2 RBI, BB on one hard hit ball. It has been a down year for the first round pick, as his OPS has plummeted from .893 to .786. Fortunately, he is...

Connelly Early, SP, Boston Red Sox I'll save the puns, but Early was excellent going 5.1 IP, 5 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 7 K. He allowed five hard hit balls. This was only his second big league start, so...

Tanner Bibee, SP, Cleveland Guardians Bibee threw a CGSO tonight, posting 2 H, 0 BB, 10 K in a truly dominant night. This was obviously a really encouraging start for Bibee as his 20.3% K rate, 4.69 ERA, and 3.82...

Zac Gallen, SP, Arizona Diamondbacks Gallen shocked the world a bit here by posting a 6 IP, 2 H, 0 ER, 3 BB, 8 K outing against the Dodgers. I say it's shocking because of how bad Gallen has been...

Spencer Strider, SP, Atlanta Braves Strider had a night to forget, going 4 IP, 8 H, 8 ER, 2 BB and 2 K. He allowed three homers on 9 hard hit balls. He posted a 22% CSW. Strides is obviously...

Luke Keaschall, 2B, Minnesota Twins Keaschall returned from the IL with a bang, going 2-4 with R, HR, 3 RBI on three hard hit balls. You're seriously not ready for how good Luke Keaschall is. I'm all in. In 2024,...

Nick Kurtz, 1B, Oakland Athletics Have mercy good sir! Kurtz went 6-6 with 4 homers, generating 6 R, 8 RBI on five hard hit balls. This might be the single greatetst offensive game of all time. I have one stat...

Cody Bellinger, OF, New York Yankees Bellinger had quite the day, going 3-5 with 3 R, 3 HR, 6 RBI on three hard hit balls. Homering thrice will certainly garner attention. The former MVP winner has traditionally been a very...

George Springer, OF, Toronto Blue Jays Springer went 3-4 with 2 R, 2 HR, 7 RBI, and BB on a huge day at the plate. Springer is having a tremendous year offensively, so days like this are not surprising. He...

Chase Burns, SP, Cincinnati Reds Burns will officially be called up to make his big league debut this Tuesday. Add him everywhere. Dump the rest of your FAAB in every league. Burns has made 13 starts across three minor league...

Andy Pages, OF, Los Angeles Dodgers Pages was the difference maker today for the Dodgers, going 1-3 with R, HR, 4 RBI, K on one hard hit ball. Pages had a really mediocre May, slashing .259/.283/.407, but he has really...

Marcelo Mayer, 3B, Boston Red Sox The rookie had a nice day at the plate going 2-4 with 2 R, 2 HR, 2 RBI and 2 K on two hard hit balls. Mayer's underlying figures are a bit of a...

Nick Gonzales, 2B, Pittsburgh Pirates Gonzales made his return from the IL and played in only his second game of the season. He went 1-3 with a K and one hard hit ball. With 2B being so desolate, I consider...

Kerry Carpenter, OF, Detroit Tigers Carpenter had a great day going 2-5 with 3 R, 1 BB on three hard hit balls. He's running a .434 xwOBACON, which is mainly driven by a 14.5 barrel rate and 21.7 LA. He's...

Evan Carter, OF, Texas Rangers Carter made his 2025 debut, going 2-5 with R and K. While your leaguemates might hop on him trying to catch some post-hype sleeper effect, I'm personally hesitant. Carter was striking out at 25.6% in...

Juan Soto, OF, New York Mets Soto had his biggest day of the year going 2-3 with 2 R, 2 HR, 2 RBI, BB on three hard hit balls. Soto is having a down year given his first round draft...
