Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Weston Wilson went 4-for-5 with a single, double, triple, and a round-tripper to lead the Phillies to a victory on Thursday evening. Wilson also scored three runs and tallied one RBI. The Clemson product has made just ten starts since rejoining the Phillies in mid-July. Through this stretch, the 29-year-old has performed quite well with a .342/.350/.684 line, three home runs, seven RBI and two doubles. Wilson could begin to earn aa starting role in left field as Brandon Marsh has gone just 7-for-40 through August. Wilson could be worth adding in deeper leagues for now, given his recent hot stretch, and may eventually be a popular target in all leagues if he can find his way into the starting nine on a consistent basis.


Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm went 1-for-4 with a three-run shot in Thursday's victory. Bohm hit the long ball in the opening frame which scored Bryce Harper and Trea Turner. Since the start of August, the third baseman has held a strong .309/.333/.509 line with two home runs, 11 RBI, and five doubles. Overall, the 28-year-old has taken another step forward this season as he currently boasts a .297/.351/.483 slash line with 13 home runs and five stolen bases. Under the hood, he holds an excellent 13.9% K rate, which gives him a slight boost in points leagues. Bohm should remain in all lineups going forward and will continue to provide solid counting stats batting near the top of the Philly lineup.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski has looked quite sharp operating as a reliever at Triple-A in his past two outings. The top prospect in Milwaukee moved up to Triple-A earlier this month and made two short starts before shifting to a bullpen role. As a reliever, Misiorowski has tossed three 2/3 perfect innings with five punchouts. As a starter, he served up two earned runs across three frames of work. While the sample size is very small, the right-hander may have found a new role out of the pen. All fantasy managers should continue to monitor how the former second-round selection is utilized through the end of the season as he served exclusively as a starter over the past two summers. Misiorowski could push for a late-season major league debut, given his current production at Triple-A as well.

San Diego starting pitching prospect Ryan Bergert led the way in a combined no-hitter on Thursday as he tossed six perfect innings. He struck out nine batters. In his past 19 frames, Bergert has looked quite sharp, holding a 1.42 ERA and a 0.89 WHIP. This is a good sign as in the previous 34 innings before this stretch, he posted a 7.60 ERA and a 1.86 WHIP. Overall, the right-hander has struggled to find consistency through his first extended look at Double-A this season as he sits with a 5.12 ERA and a 1.42 WHIP through 70 innings. The West Virginia product may have begun to turn the corner at Double-A and could be on his way up to Triple-A if he continues this hot stretch.


Chicago Cubs shortstop prospect Luis Vazquez (undisclosed) went deep twice in his return to Triple-A on Thursday evening. Vazquez has been sidelined for just over a month due to an undisclosed injury. Vazquez earned a brief taste of the majors earlier this summer but went 0-for-1 in his lone at-bat. At Triple-A, he has held a .261/.351/.422 line through 58 games. However, across his past 11 games at Triple-A Iowa, Vazquez has posted a strong .316/.395/.579, which shows he began to turn the corner before the injury and has already picked up right where he left off yesterday evening. Vazquez could get another opportunity in the majors later this summer if he continues to perform well at Iowa.
