Leodalis De Vries Tallies Three Hits On Tuesday

San Diego Padres infield prospect Leodalis De Vries went 3-for-3 with a double, a home run, and a walk during Tuesday's contest against High-A Dayton. This outing snapped a minor skid for De Vries as he went 2-for-15 over his last four games entering Tuesday. However, prior to this skid, De Vries held a .435/.480/1.662 line over his last six contests. Through his first 18 games at the High-A level, the top-ranked prospect in San Diego has posted an impressive .290/.359/.609 slash line with four doubles, three triples, four home runs, and two stolen bases. Last summer, De Vries made his professional debut with Low-A Lake Elsinore but struggled as he held a modest .237/.361/.441 line. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression as he is developing into one of the top prospects in the sport.

JR Ritchie Tosses Seven Shutout Frames

Atlanta Braves right-handed pitching prospect JR Ritchie tossed seven shutout innings in his victory over High-A Hub City. This was the first time this season Ritchie logged seven innings in a single start. In this game, the right-hander allowed just four hits, one walk, and struck out six batters. Through his first 28 innings of the regular season (five starts), the 21-year-old has performed quite well, holding a 1.93 ERA with a 0.93 WHIP. During this stint, he has struck out 23 batters and served up nine walks. This is an excellent sign for the No. 7-ranked prospect in the system as he allowed four runs across his first 10 innings at the High-A level last season. If Ritchie were to continue to perform well, he should earn a promotion to Double-A in the second half of the season.

Luis Robert Jr. Continues Running Wild

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. went 1-for-3 with a home run, a steal, and a walk in his team's 7-2 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday. The 27-year-old gave the White Sox an early 2-0 lead when he and teammate Andrew Benintendi hit back-to-back long balls in the bottom of the first inning, though that'd be all the offense they could muster. Robert Jr. may finally be waking up at the plate, as he's recorded two homers in his last three games while putting together a four-game hit streak -- his longest of the year. Additionally, he's stolen four bases during that stretch, already putting him at 11 on the young season. He has an excellent chance to eclipse the career-high he set in that figure a season ago (23).

Shohei Ohtani Steals Bag, Homers In Rout Of Marlins

Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani went 1-for-4 with a home run and a stolen base in his team's 15-2 victory over the Miami Marlins. He added a walk, two strikeouts, and two runs scored. Ohtani blasted a 114.1 MPH solo shot to lead off the bottom of the first inning -- qualifying for his hardest hit ball of the season thus far. It was also the first time he hit a home run and stole a base in the same game this year, as he's started to pick it up in recent days. The superstar slugger is riding a four-game hit streak in which he's 7-for-15 (.467) with five extra-base hits (three doubles, one triple), three steals, and six runs scored. Ohtani has driven in just ten runs on the campaign, but he leads the league with 29 runs scored in 28 games.

Gleyber Torres Launches Third Homer In Loss

Detroit Tigers second baseman Gleyber Torres went 3-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to the Houston Astros. He added two singles and a stolen base. His home run came in the top of the ninth inning with the Tigers down by four runs, cutting the deficit to two, though that'd be the final runs they'd push across. The Venezuela native has been solid in his first stint with Detroit, batting .292 with three home runs, four steals, 14 RBI, and 12 runs scored in 18 games. Aside from his average -- which would be the highest of his career if it holds -- Torres is sporting a minuscule 8.0% strikeout rate, placing him in the 98th percentile of all major-league hitters. A change of scenery has boded well for the 28-year-old.
