Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh went 1-for-3 with a walk, a two-run home run, and two runs scored in Friday's 5-1 win over the Padres. The switch-hitter is up to 14 home runs on the year, and with a 99th-percentile 22.7 percent barrel rate, expect many more to come. The 28-year-old is now the author of a .250/.371/.571 slash line with a .402 wOBA and a 170 wRC+ through 43 games played, even swiping five bags thus far (career high is six). It all makes the 6-foot-2 backstop the highest-scoring catcher for fantasy, and he'll take on the Padres' Nick Pivetta on Saturday, whom he is 4-for-10 off of in his career with three of those hits going for home runs, which makes Raleigh a viable -- albeit expensive -- DFS option for that contest.

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Austin Hays continued to produce in the team's 5-4 win over the visiting Cleveland Guardians at Great American Ball Park on Friday night, going 2-for-4 with his sixth home run of the season and his second stolen base of 2025. Hays' home run in the third inning of the ballgame opened the Reds' lead up to five runs, and it was his first long ball since he came off the injured list last week. The 29-year-old former third-round pick by the Baltimore Orioles in 2016 out of Jacksonville University has produced for Cincy as their regular left fielder when healthy this year, going 24-for-76 (.316) with six homers, 16 RBI, 16 runs scored and two steals. Since returning from the IL on May 9, Hays has gone 5-for-24 (.208) with a homer, double, three RBI, one steal and one run scored while striking out nine times in 25 plate appearances.

Washington Nationals outfielder James Wood stayed hot at the plate in Friday's 4-3 win over the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards, going 2-for-4 with a single, his 12th home run of the season, two RBI, and two strikeouts as the designated hitter out of the three-hole. Wood has been very productive for his fantasy managers in his first full season in the big leagues, hitting .273/.366/.540 with a .906 OPS, 12 homers, 11 doubles, 27 RBI, 25 runs scored and five stolen bases in 46 games played. The 22-year-old's home run in the eighth inning was a big one, as it tied the score up at three apiece in the eventual win. Wood now has 11 multi-hit games on the year and has improved in the month of May, hitting .317/.379/.533 with three home runs, six RBI and two steals in 66 plate appearances. He's a must-start in fantasy.

The New York Mets announced on Saturday that they reinstated infield prospect Ronny Mauricio (knee) from the 10-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Syracuse. Mauricio's rehab assignment has ended, but he's going to need more time in the minors after missing all of last season while recovering from multiple surgeries for a torn ACL. The 24-year-old is considered the team's No. 9 prospect, per MLB Pipeline, but he probably won't be a realistic option to return to the big leagues until some point in the second half of this season. He went 4-for-32 during his rehab assignment and hit .248 (25-for-101) with two homers, nine RBI, seven steals and 11 runs scored in 26 games during his MLB debut back in 2023. Mauricio has intriguing power upside but needs to clean up his plate discipline to succeed at the next level. He's strictly a stash option in dynasty/keeper leagues at the moment.

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Yoan Moncada (thumb) left the 6-2 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday night early after he seemed to aggravate his thumb injury on a swing in the top of the ninth inning, according to the Orange County Register's Jeff Fletcher. Manager Ron Washington said it's something that is going to happen whenever he swings and misses in a certain way (usually at breaking balls). Moncada went 1-for-5 with his third home run of the season, two RBI and two strikeouts in the contest before leaving late and being replaced by Kevin Newman. The 29-year-old oft-injured infielder missed almost a month earlier this year with a right-thumb sprain, so he could be headed back to the injured list. If he were to miss extended time again, the Angels could use Newman and Tim Anderson at the hot corner.
