Boston Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran had a solid overall offensive performance in Tuesday's 6-5 win over the Astros. Duran went 4-for-4 with two singles, a double, a two-run home run, three runs scored, and a walk. The 27-year-old put the Red Sox ahead for good, taking an eighth-inning Kaleb Ort fastball to the opposite field, putting it in the Crawford boxes. Duran has been a five-category fantasy contributor this season, slashing .292/.350/.511 with 17 HR, 87 runs scored, 64 RBI, and 31 stolen bases in 576 plate appearances. He should continue to help fantasy managers down the stretch, especially if the Red Sox continue to produce overall offensively.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Frankie Montas (6-8) pitched a gem on Tuesday as his team beat the St. Louis Cardinals 3-2. Across seven innings, Montas gave up one hit, walked one, and struck out three. The nine-year MLB vet has had an up-and-down season (4.57 ERA in 23 starts) but has been much better since being traded to the Brewers in late July. In four starts (21 IP) with his new team, he is (2-0) with a 2.57 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP. Montas will get another chance to keep his run going against Oakland on Saturday.

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Mitch Keller was stellar in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Rangers. Keller pitched seven innings, allowing just three hits and no walks with nine strikeouts. This was a welcome outing for the Pirates and fantasy managers, as Keller had allowed a combined 15 earned runs in his previous two starts. His performance has fluctuated at times, but the 28-year-old is now 11-7 with a 3.76 ERA, an 8.13 K/9 rate, and a 2.43 BB/9 rate in 25 starts and 148 1/3 IP. His next start is slated to be a decent matchup against the Cubs. Hopefully, he can string together another solid outing.

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler pitched well but fell to 12-5 in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Braves. Wheeler pitched six innings, allowing two runs on six hits (including a solo home run) and no walks with eight strikeouts. However, Reynaldo Lopez (forearm) held the Phillies in check in his return from the injured list. The 34-year-old has once again been a reliable high-end fantasy starter with a 2.73 ERA, a 9.89 K/9 rate, and a 2.50 BB/9 rate in 25 starts and 154 2/3 IP. In his next start, he will face a tough matchup at the Royals, but fantasy managers have no reason to avoid him.

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Reynaldo Lopez (forearm) pitched well in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Phillies. Lopez, who had been on the injured list for the last three weeks with right forearm inflammation, pitched five innings of one-run ball, allowing five hits and a walk with 10 strikeouts on 90 pitches. It was encouraging to see the 30-year-old pick up right where he left before getting hurt. He now owns a 7-4 record with a 2.05 ERA, a 9.19 K/9 rate, and a 3.12 BB/9 rate in 20 starts and 109 2/3 IP. He will draw a favorable matchup in his next start against the Nationals.
