Brent Rooker Pops Seventh Homer
Brent Rooker went 2-for-4 with a home run, walk, and an additional run scored in his team's 8-5 loss to the Texas Rangers on Tuesday.

The lefty slugger is starting to heat up, racking up four multi-hit outings across his previous seven appearances. Over that stretch, he's batting a cool .379 (11-for-29) with three home runs, one double, five RBI, and eight runs scored. Rooker has maintained his exit velocity (91.9 mph in 2025) figures while cutting his strikeout percentage (25.7%) by three points from (28.8%) in 2024.Source: ESPN

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Jett Williams Tallies Three Hits, Swipes Two Bags
Jett Williams went 3-for-5 with one triple, two runs, one RBI, and two stolen bases during their contest against Double-A New Hampshire on Tuesday evening. This was Williams's second-straight game hitting a triple. This outing also extended his current hitting streak to five games. Last summer, the No. 55-ranked prospect in the sport and No. 2-ranked in Queens battled injuries and was only able to log 33 MiLB games. However, Williams has been very productive over the first 12 games of the Double-A campaign. During this stretch, the former 14th overall pick has held a strong .292/.346/.563 slash line with three doubles, two triples, two home runs, and four stolen bases. If he continues to perform well with Double-A, he could contend for an early-season Triple-A promotion.Source: MiLB.com
New York Mets infield prospect Deyvison De Los Santos Posts Four-Hit Game
Deyvison De Los Santos went 4-for-5 with a triple and an RBI during his contest against Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday evening. Santos also swiped a bag in this contest. This performance extended his current hitting streak to six games. During this impressive stretch, the 21-year-old has held an impressive .400/.481/.720 slash line with two doubles, one triple, and a home run. This is a great sign as Santos got off to a slow start to the season. Over his first 14 games of the season, Santos held a .245/.321/.286 slash line with just two doubles and a 22:6 K:BB. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression at Triple-A, as he should be in the mix to make his MLB debut later this summer. Last season, Santos posted an impressive .264/.311/.523 line with 26 home runs during his first extended look at Triple-A.Source: MiLB.com

Yelich went 2-for-5 with a 407-foot grand slam in the sixth inning that broke the game open, giving the Brewers a 9-1 lead. He also doubled in the third, finishing the night with seven total bases and two runs scored. Yelich's hard-hit percentage (52.8%) and average exit velocity (91.9 mph) rank above the 80th percentile this season, suggesting potential for a jump in his numbers as April nears its end. Overall, the 33-year-old is slashing .222/.337/.444 with five home runs, 19 RBI, and five stolen bases across 95 plate appearances in 2025. Yelich and the Brewers will look to stay hot against Logan Webb on Wednesday.Source: MLB.com
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ian Seymour Strikes Out Nine Across Five Innings
Ian Seymour continued his impressive start to the Triple-A campaign as he logged 5 1/3 innings of one-run ball on Tuesday in his outing against Nashville. In this start, Seymour allowed just four hits and three walks. He struck out nine batters. This was his third time this season tallying at least eight punchouts in a single start. Through 25 1/3 innings of work (five starts), the former second-round pick has held a 2.49 ERA with a 1.18 WHIP. Seymour has posted an impressive 35:7 K:BB but has struggled to keep the ball in the yard, as he has allowed four long balls. Seymour made his Triple-A debut last season and held a similar 2.33 ERA with a 1.15 WHIP across 54 innings of work. Fantasy managers in deeper AL-only formats should consider stashing Seymour, as he appears to be nearing his MLB debut given his increasing strikeout production.Source: MiLB.com
Tampa Bay Rays left-handed pitching prospect Jacob Misiorowski Strikes Out Eight In Latest Triple-A Start
Jacob Misiorowski enjoyed his best start of the season on Tuesday evening against Triple-A Durham. In this outing, the No. 4-ranked prospect in Milwaukee tossed six shutout innings. He allowed just one hit and one free pass. He tallied a season-best eight punchouts. Through Misiorowski's first 24 2/3 innings of the Triple-A campaign, he has held a strong 2.19 ERA with a 0.97 WHIP. He struggled to command his pitches in his first three starts but has allowed just three walks over his last 11 frames. Last summer, Misiorowski spent most of his time with Double-A before earning a brief taste of Triple-A. Given his progression at Triple-A, Misiorowski could be worth closely monitoring as he could contend for his MLB debut in the first half of the season.Source: MiLB.com
Milwaukee Brewers right-handed pitching prospect Jack Leiter Sharp In Rehab Outing On Tuesday
Jack Leiter (finger) tossed 4 1/3 shutout innings in his rehab outing on Tuesday against Triple-A Las Vegas. Leiter allowed just one hit and one walk. He struck out four. The former second overall pick has been on the injured list due to a blister since his start on April 2. However, given his strong rehab outing, he could be in line to return to Texas before the end of the week. Before his injury, Leiter was enjoying a strong start to the season and had logged 10 innings of one-run ball with a stellar 10:1 K:BB. This was a great sign, as the Vanderbilt product has struggled with his command throughout his minor-league career and during his first MLB stint last season. In 2024, Leiter made his MLB debut but held an 8.83 ERA with a 1.71 WHIP. Given his progress this season, he should be viewed as a solid option in all formats when he is activated off the injured list.Source: MiLB.com
Texas Rangers pitching prospect Agustin Ramirez Hits Two Doubles On Tuesday
Agustin Ramirez went 3-for-3 with two doubles, an RBI, and a walk during their 4-3 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Tuesday evening. Ramirez made his MLB debut on Monday and has enjoyed an impressive start to his MLB career. Over his first two games, Ramirez has gone 5-for-6 with three doubles, two walks, one stolen base, and no strikeouts. Given his impressive start, fantasy managers should expect the No. 4-ranked prospect in the Miami system to continue to see the majority of starts behind the dish. Earlier in the season, Ramirez held a solid .252/.313/.479 slash line with seven doubles and three long balls in just 19 games. Last season, Ramirez hit 25 home runs and swiped 22 bags in 126 MiLB games. Given his five-category upside at the catcher position, he should be viewed as a strong option in standard formats heading into his matchup on Wednesday against Cincinnati right-hander Brady Singer.Source: MLB.com

Bryan Reynolds Busy In Tuesday's Victory
Bryan Reynolds went 3-for-5 with two runs, two RBI, and a walk during their 9-3 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday evening. Reynolds would hit three singles in this game. In the ninth inning, Reynolds would conclude his evening with a two-run single, which scored outfielder Tommy Pham and infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa. This was Reynolds' second-straight three-hit game and third three-hit game over his last four games. During this offensive surge, Reynolds has posted an impressive .526/.550/.684 slash line with just one extra-base hit. However, before this impressive run, Reynolds was in a slump, hitting just .179 over his previous eight games. Given his recent hot stretch, the 30-year-old switch-hitter should be viewed as a strong play in DFS on Wednesday, facing Los Angeles right-hander Jack Kochanowicz.Source: MLB.com
Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Brandon Pfaadt Sharp In Tuesday's Victory
Brandon Pfaadt tossed six innings of one-run ball en route to earning the victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday evening. Pfaadt allowed just four hits and walks. He struck out five batters.

Over his last three starts, the 26-year-old has logged 17 2/3 innings to the tune of a stellar 1.02 ERA and a 0.96 WHIP. During this stretch, he has allowed just four free passes, but has only struck out 14 batters. In his first two starts of the season, he posted a modest 5.25 ERA with a 1.08 WHIP. Given his recent stretch of performances, he remains a strong play in all standard formats in his next scheduled start against the Atlanta Braves.Source: MLB.com
Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Kyle Tucker Tallies Three Hits, Launches Home Run No. 7
Kyle Tucker continued his impressive start to the campaign on Tuesday evening as he went 3-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, and two stolen bases during their victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. In the opening frame, Tucker would hit a single to center field, swipe second base, and score on a Seiya Suzuki double. In the following frame, Tucker would tally his second single and proceed to steal second base once again. Tucker would launch a two-run shot in the eighth inning off Dodger deliver Alex Vesia, which also scored Ian Happ. Over his previous nine games, Tucker has held a .314/.381/.622 line with one double, two triples, and two home runs. He remains a must-start option and top play in DFS as he continues his incredible start to his Cubs tenure.Source: MLB.com
