Boston Red Sox second base/shortstop prospect Kristian Campbell has begun to settle into Triple-A after playing just 14 games at this level last season. During the opening month of this season, the 21-year-old posted a .288/.390/.561 stat line with four long balls, one swiped bag, and 13 RBI. He has a 10:23 BB:K ratio. Last season, in a small sample size at High-A, Campbell struck out a much higher rate and had a .267/.400/.422 and just one home run. It is very promising to see Campbell already begin to adjust to professional pitching in such a short amount of time. The former Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket is still several years away from a major league debut but is worth following in dynasty leagues, especially due to how quickly he is adjusting to High-A.


Kansas City Royals relief pitcher Chris Stratton picked up his second save of the season in Monday's 3-2 win over the Brewers. Stratton came in to pitch the top of the ninth inning up by one. He allowed a leadoff walk, induced a ground-ball double-play, allowed another walk, and ended the game with a groundout. Closer James McArthur pitched two innings in Sunday's game, so he was likely unavailable. Stratton has struggled this season with a 5.40 ERA and a 7.20 BB/9 rate in 15 innings of work. His fantasy value will remain limited if he cannot improve those metrics.


Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Bryse Wilson turned in another solid start in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Royals. Wilson pitched six scoreless innings, allowing one hit and three walks with six strikeouts. He also hit a batter. The 26-year-old has continued to pitch well since moving into the starting rotation and now owns a 2.40 ERA with an 8.10 K/9 rate and a 3.00 BB/9 rate in 10 appearances (four starts) and 30 IP. He will look to continue his strong performance in a favorable matchup against the Cardinals. Fantasy managers could look to him in deeper leagues as a streaming option.


Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper continued to flex his muscles at the plate in Monday's 6-1 win over the Giants. Harper went 2-for-4 with a single, a three-run home run, and a strikeout. The 31-year-old hasn't performed as well as fantasy managers were hoping for but owns a .243/.371/.496 slash line with eight HR and 24 RBI in 140 plate appearances. Hopefully, his power surge can help get him going overall.


Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Caleb Thielbar earned his third save of the season in Monday's 3-1 win over the Mariners. Thielbar came in to pitch the top of the ninth inning up by two and delivered a 1-2-3 outing with two strikeouts. Closer Jhoan Duran was called upon to face the top of the order in the eighth inning, so Thielbar got the save opportunity. The 37-year-old veteran has gotten off to a rough start this season with a bloated 6.14 ERA in 7 1/3 innings pitched. His fantasy value will remain limited if he continues to pitch poorly, as it seems unlikely that he would earn high-leverage situations.
