Washington Nationals shortstop CJ Abrams went 2-for-3 with his 13th home run of the season. He also knocked his 20th double of the season and added two RBI to increase his season total to 42. Abrams carries a strong .282/.339/.513 with 13 stolen bases and a 21:62 BB:K ratio. Abrams remains an elite fantasy asset as he has showcased an elite combination of power and speed throughout the first half of the 2024 campaign. Under the hood, Abrams carries a stellar .293 xBA, which places him in the top 94th percentile among all hitters. The 23-year-old should remain in your lineup every day as he will always be given prime scoring opportunities batting in the leadoff spot of the Washington lineup.

New York Mets starting pitcher Tylor Megill was sent down to Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday. The Mets are likely going with Christian Scott or Jose Butto when Megill's next scheduled start arrives. Megill is (2-4) with a 4.85 ERA and 1.42 WHIP in 33 2/3 innings with 43 strikeouts and 16. He had allowed at least three runs in three of his last four starts. The Mets have the luxury to backfill his spot with a reliever to help a thin bullpen. Fantasy managers will have to wait to see when the Mets announce whether Butto or Scott will start Tuesday against the Washington Nationals.

Arizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher Paul Sewald tossed a clean ninth inning with one strikeout to earn his 11th save of the campaign. Since allowing one run in his first outing of the season on May 7, the 34-year-old has now tossed 14 consecutive shutout frames. Overall, he holds a near-perfect 0.57 ERA, 0.51 WHIP, and a 3:13 BB:K ratio. Sewald has strong metrics, such as a 5.6% barrel rate and 33.3% hard-hit rate, which suggest this dominance should continue in the second half of the season. The San Diego product remains a top option for saves and should continue to provide elite ratios along the way.

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Zac Gallen tossed six shutout innings in his first start in over a month. Gallen has been on the 15-day injured list since May 31 with a right hamstring strain. He allowed just one hit to outfielder Brent Rooker in the opening frame and a free pass to first baseman Tyler Soderstrom in the second inning. He struck out seven batters. This is a great sign, as the 28-year-old posted one of his best outings of the season after missing a month of play. The North Carolina product carries a 2.83 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, and a 16:67 BB:K ratio into his next outing, which is tentatively scheduled for July 5 against the San Diego Padres.

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Hector Neris tallied his 11th save of the campaign on Saturday. The 35-year-old was able to work around a few base runners to toss his third straight shutout inning. Rhys Hoskins hit a lead-off single on a line drive to left field. Neris then got his first out off a Sal Frelick ground ball but then proceeded to walk Jake Bauers. With two runners on, Neris was able to tally two consecutive strikeouts to seal the victory. It has been a rough season for the veteran reliever, but he has recently begun to turn things around. He is still worth holding onto in deeper leagues, as he should remain a top candidate for saves in Chicago even if he continues to struggle.
