Colorado Rockies top prospect Adael Amador continued his recent run of hot hitting on Wednesday, going 2-for-5 with a walk for Double-A Hartford. One of his two hits was a three-run blast, which was the switch-hitter's fifth home run in his last seven games after clubbing just one over his first 37 games. The 21-year-old also stole a base for the fourth game in a row and now has 22 on the year. Despite going 12-for-30 (.400) over his last seven games, Amador's batting average is still .193 on the season. What has not been an issue all season is his patient eye at the plate, walking at a 16.6% rate (19.3% K%) and posting a .342 OBP. He's likely not going to see the majors this year, but with that kind of power-speed combo, he may soon earn a promotion to Triple-A if he can keep up this recent turnaround.

Colorado Rockies relief pitcher Tyler Kinley recorded a one-out save on Thursday to secures the club's 22nd victory versus the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday. Kinley reliever Jalen Beeks, who had recorded the first two outs of the inning via strikeout and pop-up. Kinley allowed a single to Paul Goldschmidt, but was able to get Nolan Gorman to strikeout to end the inning for his third save of the season. The Rockies bullpen has been a mess this season and with limited wins, weather it is Justin Lawrence, Beeks, Kinley or another option, it is recommended to avoid the situation completely.

Washington Nationals shortstop CJ Abrams went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's loss versus the Atlanta Braves. The home run would be his first since May 27. Abrams had a very hot start to the season, but his production dropped off in May, but that could be due to the fact that he has dealt with shoulder soreness. Despite having a rough month of May, Abrams has hit .246 with 10 homers, 27 RBI and eight stolen bases. With his ability to help across the board at the shortstop position, Abrams has become a good buy-low target for managers that are becoming impatient with his recent struggles.

Washington Nationals outfielder Lane Thomas went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's loss against the Atlanta Braves. The home run would be the fourth of the season for Thomas. The outfielder missed some time earlier in the season with a sprained MCL and has hit .250 with two homers, six RBI and four stolen bases since his return last week. Thomas has a breakout campaign in 2023, while showcasing both power and speed and that hasn't stopped this season. Although he is still shaking off some rust, Thomas remains a viable option in most formats.

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Hunter Greene picked up his fourth victory of the season against the Chicago Cubs on Thursday. After a tough outing in his previous start, which also came against the Cubs, Greene bounced back. The right-hander threw 6 2/3 innings and allowed five hits, four runs, two walks and recorded eight strikeouts. Greene pitcher well for most of the contest, but a pair of two-run homers by Seiya Suzuki and Christopher Morel would hurt the flamethrower. Greene has been putting together a good season for the Reds and is now 4-2 with 3.61 ERA. Next up for the right-hander will be a date at home versus a tough Cleveland Guardians offense.
