Cal Raleigh Blasts Go-Ahead Homer

Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh continued his impressive stretch of play during Saturday's game against the San Diego Padres. Raleigh was fairly quiet at the plate until hitting a go-ahead home run off left-hander Adrian Morejon in the seventh inning. He finished his day 1-for-2 with that solo homer and two walks in the win. Raleigh is putting together an impressive week at the plate. Over the last five games, Raleigh is 6-for-17 with three homers and six RBI. Raleigh is a great source of power with 15 homers on the season and plays excellent defense. He is someone that needs to be rostered and started in all fantasy formats.

Andy Pages Hits Home Run No. 9, Collects Three RBI

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Andy Pages went 2-for-5 in Saturday's 11-9 loss to the Angels, hitting his ninth home run of the season and driving in three runs in the game. The 6-foot-1 slugger got off to a slow start this year, but since a multi-hit game on April 22, he's hit .371 (36-for-97), and has now put together a .288/.341/.506 slash line with a .368 wOBA and a 136 wRC+ for the season, which puts the Dominican within the top 15 among outfielders in fantasy scoring. It will be interesting to see if he can keep up this type of production throughout the season, and hitting in the middle of the Dodger lineup should help, but with a 21st-percentile hard-hit rate, 37th-percentile average EV, and an xBA of .260, some regression may eventually be coming.

Ezequiel Tovar Records Career-High Five Hits

Colorado Rockies shortstop Ezequiel Tovar came up clutch for his team during Saturday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. This was Tovar's second game back after missing time on the injured list due to a hip contusion. It appears that injury is behind him as Tovar was hitting everything thrown at him on Saturday. He went 5-for-6 at the plate, which included a solo home run in the third inning. The five knocks was a career-high for Tovar as he also notched three singles and a triple in the win on Saturday. The 23-year-old figures to be a force in the middle of the Rockies batting order. Tovar should be rostered in most 12-team fantasy formats right now.

Jarren Duran Homers, Drives in Four Runs on Saturday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran singled and hit a two-run home run in a 2-for-5 day at the plate, collecting four RBI in the team's 7-6 win over the Braves on Saturday. It could have been an even more fruitful fantasy performance, but he was caught stealing once. The left-handed hitter has had a productiveseason thus far, hitting .262 with three home runs, 27 RBI, 24 runs scored, and 12 stolen bases, putting him in the top 24 in fantasy scoring amongoutfielders. Even with yesterday's home run, the28-year-old is on pace for 10 home runs, far less than the 21 he hit last season, which will surely disappoint fantasy managers who were expecting more, but he's also on pace for 40 steals, which would be more than the 34 he swiped last year.

Matthew Lugo Homers in Win

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Matthew Lugo has seen increased playing time over the last week or so. Lugo has started in each of the last three games and played in seven straight contests. Since being called up, Lugo is batting .381 with three homers and six RBI. He has collected five hits over the last three games, which includes a 2-for-5 performance with a solo homer on Saturday. He figures to continue seeing regular playing time until Mike Trout (knee) returns to the lineup. Lugo isn't a great fantasy option, but is worth a look in deep leagues or AL-only formats.
