Miami Marlins outfield prospect Victor Mesa Jr. continues to hit for Triple-A Jacksonville, now with at least one hit in 22 of 27 games in 2024 and slashing .316/.377/.526. The 22-year-old has five home runs on the season and is keeping strikeouts to a minimum with a 16.0% K%. After stealing 16 bases in 2023, Mesa finally stole his first base of the season on Sunday as well. The left-handed hitter appears to be knocking on the door of the majors, and there's no reason to keep him in the minors with the lack of production in front of him and Marlins management all but waving the white flag on the season already.

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Simeon Woods Richardson turned in a quality start but came away with a no-decision in Monday's 3-1 win over the Mariners. The 23-year-old pitched six scoreless innings, allowing just one hit and one walk with eight strikeouts. Woods Richardson has capitalized on favorable matchups since being called up and is now 1-0 with a 1.74 ERA, a 9.15 K/9 rate, and a 2.18 BB/9 rate in four starts and 20 2/3 IP. His streak has a chance to continue in his next projected start at the struggling Blue Jays.

New York Mets closer Edwin Diaz picked up his fifth save of the season in Monday's 4-3 win over the Cardinals. Diaz came in to pitch the bottom of the ninth inning up by one and turned in a 1-2-3 performance with a strikeout. The 30-year-old hasn't had as many opportunities in the early going as fantasy managers would hope for, but he has still converted all but one save opportunity with a 2.45 ERA and a 13.50 K/9 rate in 14 2/3 innings pitched.

New York Mets outfielder Brandon Nimmo had a nice day at the plate in Monday's 4-3 win over the Cardinals. Nimmo went 2-for-5 with a single, a solo home run, and a strikeout. The 31-year-old has been underwhelming offensively to start the season, slashing .228/.376/.394with four HR, 19 runs scored, 22 RBI, and two stolen bases in 157 plate appearances. He has a history of being a solid fantasy contributor, so fantasy managers may want to stick with him for now except perhaps in shallow leagues.

San Diego Padres closer Robert Suarez continued his excellent season, earning his 11th save in Monday's 6-3 win over the Cubs. Suarez entered the game in the bottom of the eighth inning up by three with one out and the bases loaded. He got a strikeout and a pop-out to escape the jam and stayed on to pitch the ninth, delivering a 1-2-3 inning with two more strikeouts. The 33-year-old has been one of fantasy's best closers this season, converting all of his save opportunities with a 0.59 ERA in 15 1/3 innings of work.
