New York Yankees shortstop prospect Roderick Arias tallied three hits on Friday evening with a triple and a home run and brought home a career-high six runs. Arias has struggled through his first look at Single-A ball but has recently begun to string together strong performances. Over his past 17 games, the 19-year-old is riding a .260/.291/.425 line with 15 RBI and five swiped bags. However, overall on the season, the switch-hitter holds an underwhelming .218/.321/.359 line with 29 RBI and 14 stolen bases through 52 games. Arias is ranked as the number four prospect in the Yankee system on MLB Pipeline and is not projected to reach the majors until 2027. However, he could be worth stashing if not already in dynasty leagues once he reaches High-A.


Milwaukee Brewers second baseman Brice Turang had a big day at the plate in a 10-0 win over the Detroit Tigers on Friday. Turang went 4-for-5 with a double, two runs, two RBI, and a stolen base in the winning effort. The four-hit effort raises Turang's batting average to .303, to go along with 13 doubles, three homers, 28 runs, 23 RBI, and 22 stolen bases across 201 at-bats this season. Hitting .400 with three steals over his past seven games, Turang has emerged as an elite source of stolen bases in fantasy and should remain locked into fantasy lineups moving forward.


San Francisco Giants first baseman Wilmer Flores had a big night in a 5-2 win over the Texas Rangers on Friday. Flores went 2-for-5 with a pair of solo homers in the winning effort. The veteran infielder hit both of his homers off Texas starter Michael Lorenzen, one in the second inning and another in the fourth. Flores is now hitting .224 with four homers, 16 runs, and 21 RBI across 156 at-bats this season. He has done most of his damage of late, hitting .280 with three homers and seven RBI over his past seven contests. Flores is worth a look in deep, NL-only leagues while he is swinging a hot bat.


Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert went yard in a 7-2 win over the Boston Red Sox on Friday. Robert wound up going 1-for-4 with the homer and a strikeout in the winning effort. Robert's solo shot came off Boston starter Cooper Criswell in the first inning, a blast that traveled 430 feet and had an exit velocity of 111.7 MPH. Robert is now hitting .205 with four homers, six runs, six RBI, and one steal across 44 at-bats in 2024. He will look to go yard again on Saturday as the Red Sox send right-hander Brayan Bello to the mound.


Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Jose Siri went 2-for-3 with a homer, a walk, two runs, and an RBI in a 6-3 loss to the Baltimore Orioles on Friday. Siri hit a solo shot off Baltimore starter Cole Irvin in the second inning, a blast that traveled 400 feet and had an exit velocity of 105.1 MPH. The 28-year-old Siri is now hitting just .197 with six homers, 21 runs, 22 RBI, and seven steals across 152 at-bats in 2024. Despite his overall poor numbers, Siri has been swinging a hot bat of late, hitting .292 with three homers over his past seven games. Siri will look to stay hot as his team's weekend series against the O's continues on Saturday.
