Jake Cronenworth Dealing With Calf Tightness

San Diego Padres first baseman Jake Cronenworth (calf) felt tightness in his calf while trying to beat out a ground ball in the eighth inning in Monday's 7-3 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. He played first base in the bottom of the eighth frame before being replaced at first base by Brett Sullivan in the ninth inning. "Too early to tell," manager Mike Shildt said about Cronenworth's injury. He went 0-for-3 with a walk and two runs scored in the game before departing early. The 30-year-old left-handed hitter should be considered day-to-day for now, while fantasy managers should check back on Tuesday to see if there's an update on his condition and whether he'll be in the starting lineup. Cronenworth entered the week hitting .265 (18-for-68) with three homers and 14 RBI on the year in 18 games played.

Cedric Mullins Has Strong Overall Game Monday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins did it all in Monday's 7-4 win over the Twins. Mullins went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, three RBI, and an amazing diving catch. The 29-year-old is off to an encouraging start after a down 2023 and is now slashing .265/.321/.551 with four HR, 12 runs scored, 13 RBI, and two stolen bases in 57 plate appearances. He should provide fantasy value as long as he can produce enough to see routine time in one of baseball's best lineups.

Robert Suarez Earns One-Out Save Monday

San Diego Padres closer Robert Suarez notched his sixth save of the season in Monday's 7-3 win over the Brewers. Suarez came in to pitch the bottom of the ninth inning up by four with two outs and runners on first and second. He allowed a single to load the bases but ended the game with a flyout. The 33-year-old has been excellent this season pitching at the end of games, converting all of his save opportunities with a 1.04 ERA, eight strikeouts, and four walks in 8 2/3 innings pitched. After much debate on how the Padres would handle saves this season, it seems pretty clear that Suarez is their top option.

Jackson Chourio Hits Two-Run Homer, Swipes Base Monday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackson Chourio had a nice game at the plate in Monday's 7-3 loss to the Padres. Chourio went 2-for-4 with a single, a two-run home run, a walk, and a stolen base. The 20-year-old top prospect has done a bit of everything offensively to start the season, slashing .259/.305/.444 with three HR, seven runs scored, 11 RBI, and three stolen bases in 59 plate appearances.

Dylan Crews Laces Grand Slam Sunday

Washington Nationals outfield prospect Dylan Crews hit a grand slam for Double-A Harrisburg on Sunday. The slam was part of a three-hit day at the plate for the Nats' top prospect (MLB No. 7) that included four RBI, two runs scored, and his first stolen base of the year. The 22-year-old is now 9-for-33 (.273) with two home runs, nine RBI, six runs scored, and a BB:K of 2:10 in 2024. The 2023 No. 2 overall pick may very well see Washington D.C. this season, having a 2024 ETA per MLB.com's Top 100 Prospects list. As such, dynasty managers and even season-long fantasy managers would be wise to keep tabs on Crews, as his offensive scouting grades are impressive. The righty hitter has 60-grade Power, a 60-grade Run tool, and a 70-grade Hit tool.
