Houston Astros manager Joe Espada said that outfielder Kyle Tucker (shin) had X-rays done on his right shin after Monday's 7-4 win against the Cardinals, saying that nothing serious showed up in the results. This is good news, as the 27-year-old was pinch-hit for by Mauricio Dubon in his second at-bat after fouling a pitch off his shin. Tucker should be considered day-to-day, although fantasy managers should monitor the Astros' lineup for the next few days and keep an eye out for any further updates. Tucker has once again been a top-tier fantasy option, slashing .266/.395/.584 with 19 home runs, 40 RBI, and 10 stolen bases in 262 plate appearances.

Houston Astros closer Josh Hader picked up his ninth save of the season in Monday's 7-4 win over the Cardinals. Hader came in to pitch the top of the ninth inning up by three and turned in a 1-2-3 performance with a strikeout. The 30-year-old has been solid this season, converting all but one of his save opportunities. His 14.46 K/9 rate is what fantasy managers have come to expect, although his 3.54 ERA and .302 BABIP are not at the elite level he has shown over his career. The good news is that he has allowed just two runs since the beginning of May and has maintained high strikeout skills, so fantasy managers have nothing to worry about.

Recently called-up Detroit Tigers prospect Justyn-Henry Malloy went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts in Monday's 2-1 win over the Rangers. Malloy started at DH and hit sixth, but Tigers hitters were unable to get much going against Nathan Eovaldi and the Rangers relievers, totaling just four hits in all with two Jake Rogers solo home runs being all Detroit needed in this one. The 24-year-old will presumably get another shot to collect his first MLB hit on Tuesday against RHP Dane Dunning who has a 3.94 ERA and 1.20 WHIP on the season.

Detroit Tigers catcher Jake Rogers provided all of his team's offense in Monday's 2-1 win over the Rangers. Rogers went 2-for-3 with a pair of solo home runs. The 29-year-old took Nathan Eovaldi deep to tie things up in the third inning and put his team ahead in the eighth with another HR off of Jose Leclerc. Rogers' season stats may not stand out, but he has hit well lately, batting .421 with four extra-base hits in his last seven games. Rogers is currently rostered in just one percent of leagues, making him worth a look in deeper two-catcher leagues.

New York Mets middle infielder Jose Iglesias had a nice day at the plate in Monday's 8-7 win over the Nationals. Iglesias went 3-for-4 with three singles, an RBI, and a stolen base. The 34-year-old veteran was called up from Triple-A Syracuse last Friday and has gone 5-for-11 while playing at both second base and shortstop. Iglesias has been a useful fantasy player at times throughout his career and put together a respectable .273/.309/.442 slash line in 175 plate appearances with Syracuse before getting called up. Fantasy managers should wait to see his role more clearly defined before considering him, but he may be able to earn playing time if he continues to hit well, given the Mets' struggles.
