Minnesota Twins third baseman Brooks Lee went 3-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Astros. This was his second straight game with a home run and his 15th straight game with at least one hit. The 15-game hitting streak is the longest active in the majors, and he's now slashing .267/.303/.405 with seven home runs, 25 RBI, and 18 runs in 55 games. The 24-year-old has become one of Minnesota's most consistent batters, and he is a solid middle or corner infield option for deep fantasy leagues with both second base and third base eligibility.

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Noah Cameron struck out seven over five shutout innings in a 3-2 loss to the Athletics. He allowed four hits and one walk. This was a nice bounce-back outing after giving up six runs in his last time out against the Yankees. Besides that one bad start, Cameron has allowed one run or less in all six of his other starts. The 25-year-old has been excellent to begin his big league career, posting a 1.91 ERA and .90 WHIP with 32 strikeouts in 42 innings. He'll look to keep things going in his next start, which is currently scheduled to be against the Padres.

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Emerson Hancock shut out the Guardians over seven innings in a 6-0 win on Sunday. He allowed two hits and a walk and struck out four. This was his sixth straight start of allowing three or fewer runs, and this was the longest of the bunch. Only one other start in that span was at least six innings in length. The 26-year-old's lack of efficiency has led to a 4.48 ERA and 1.38 WHIP in 2025, with only 45 strikeouts and 21 walks through 62 innings. He'll look to build on this momentum in his next start, which is lined up to be a tough matchup against the Cubs.

Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Nick Castellanos hit a grand slam in Sunday's 11-4 win against the Blue Jays. It was his seventh home run of the season and his first since June 4th. The 33-year-old is now slashing .279/.322/.428 with seven home runs, 36 RBI, and 31 runs this season. The slugger's home run pace has been down so far, but if he maintains his current batting average, it would be the best he's done in that regard since he hit .309 in 2021. The veteran's strikeout rate has declined from 21.1% last season to 19.5% this season, which are both huge improvements over the 27.6% mark he posted in 2023. Castellanos is still a solid low-end starting outfielder for fantasy who will provide a good amount of counting stats.

San Diego Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. was a tough out at the plate during Sunday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Tatis struck out during his first at-bat, but the D-Backs were unable to get him out again. Tatis crushed the ball all over the park as he went 4-for-5 with two doubles, one RBI, one stolen base, and scored three runs in the victory. The 26-year-old has been unbelievable during this series against the Diamondbacks. He registered eight hits, three doubles, three RBI, and a stolen base across three games. It appears that Tatis has put that cold streak at the plate behind him.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Roki Sasaki (shoulder) has stopped his throwing program for a few days, according to manager Dave Roberts. The 23-year-old resumed throwing the baseball last week, but he isn't comfortable throwing with any intensity yet. Sasaki has been sidelined since the middle of May due to a right shoulder impingement. The expectation is that Sasaki will still need a few rehab starts before rejoining the Dodgers rotation. That being said, fantasy managers might not see Sasaki until after the All-Star break. Hopefully, Sasaki will get back to throwing by the end of the week.

San Francisco Giants third baseman Casey Schmitt (foot) was removed early during Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Schmitt fouled a ball off his foot in the top of the second inning. He attempted to play through the issue before being pulled out in the bottom of the third. The assumption is that he'll undergo X-rays to determine the severity of the issue. For now, fantasy managers should consider Schmitt as day-to-day until the testing is back. Tyler Fitzgerald took over at third base and could see more time over there going forward.

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Kyle Harrison was traded to the Boston Red Sox in a massive trade on Sunday. Harrison was scheduled to take the mound for the Giants on Sunday night. Instead, Harrison will be headed to Boston along with Jordan Hicks, James Tibbs, and Jose Bello. In exchange, the Giants will receive slugger Rafael Devers from Boston. Harrison was rumored to be the odd man out once Justin Verlander (pectoral) returned to the rotation. Now, he'll get a chance to stick in a big league rotation with the Red Sox. Harrison has posted a 4.56 ERA, 1.27 WHIP, with 25 strikeouts in 23.2 innings with the Giants this season. The southpaw has worked as both a starter and reliever, so he should be an immediate help in Boston.

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Jordan Hicks (toe) is part of a massive trade with the Boston Red Sox on Sunday. Hicks is headed to Boston along with Kyle Harrison, James Tibbs, and Jose Bello in exchange for slugger Rafael Devers. Hicks was recently placed on the 15-day injured list with right toe inflammation. Before that, Hicks posted a 6.47 ERA, 1.54 WHIP, with 43 strikeouts over 48.2 innings of work. The Hicks experiment didn't work out in San Francisco. They signed him to a four-year deal in 2024, so the Red Sox will be on the hook through 2027. He has a good track record and has worked as both a starter and reliever in his career. We'll see how the Red Sox decide to use him once he's healthy enough to pitch again.

The Washington Nationals are promoting third base prospect Brady House to the major leagues. House has been one of the most productive hitters at the Triple-A level this season. Through 65 games with Triple-A Rochester, the No. 3-ranked prospect in the system has posted a stellar .304/.353/.519 line with 15 doubles, 13 home runs, and a 75:20 K:BB. Last summer, House struggled during his first taste of Triple-A as he posted a modest .250/.280/.375 with just 10 doubles and six long balls through his first 54 games at the top level of the minor leagues. Earlier on Sunday, the Nationals optioned third baseman Jose Tena to Triple-A, which suggests House should be given most of the opportunities at third base. Given his steady progression and production at Triple-A this season, House is worth adding in all standard formats.

The San Francisco Giants are acquiring Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers in exchange for right-handed pitchers Jordan Hicks, Jose Bello, and Kyle Harrison, and outfield prospect James Tibbs III. Devers has spent his time tenure in the major leagues with the Boston Red Sox. Earlier this season, Devers expressed frustration with the club, which could have played a role in the trade. Through 73 games this season, Devers has only been deployed as a DH and posted a .272/.401/.504 slash line with 18 doubles and 15 home runs. Through nine seasons in Boston, Devers has made the All-Star team three times. He enjoyed his best campaign in 2021, where he launched a career-best 38 round-trippers. In San Francisco, fantasy managers should expect Devers to likely cover the hot corner, especially with Matt Chapman (hand) on the IL. However, once Chapman returns, Devers will likely return to a DH role or potentially see time at first base. In Boston, the DH will likely be a revolving door and could open the door for top prospects Marcelo Mayer and Roman Anthony to see consistent time in the lineup. Harrison and Hicks should compete for roles in the starting rotation. In addition, Bello will likely remain in Rookie Ball while Tibbs will report to Boston's High-A affiliate.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have signed right-hander Anthony DeSclafani to a one-year deal on Sunday. DeSclafani recently opted out of his deal with the New York Yankees earlier in the week. The 35-year-old has quickly found a new home after making five starts in Triple-A with the Yankees organization. DeSclafani last pitched in the MLB in 2023 with the San Francisco Giants. He posted a 4.88 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, and 79/20 K/BB ratio across 19 appearances (18 starts) with the Giants in 2023. DeSclafani has a 4.20 ERA across 180 big league outings in his nine-year career. It's unlikely that DeSclafani will be a big difference maker, but at worst he's decent organizational depth.

Detroit Tigers relief pitcher Will Vest (undisclosed) was forced to make an early exit during Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. Vest exited with the trainer after throwing a wild pitch during the eighth inning. It's unclear what exactly is wrong, but there should be more information on his status shortly. This could be a tough blow to the Tigers bullpen considering Vest has been the primary closer lately. If he misses time, Tommy Kahnle could see more work in the ninth inning. Vest recorded two outs, allowing three hits and striking out one batter before being lifted for right-hander Brenan Hanifee.

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Logan Gilbert (elbow) will be activated off the injured list and start against the Boston Red Sox on Monday. Gilbert appears to be finally ready to return after being sidelined since late April due to a right elbow flexor strain. He looked strong during his most recent rehab start where he struck out six batters across five shutout innings. Before going down, Gilbert had allowed two earned runs or less in five of his first six starts this season. Gilbert needs to be rostered and started in all fantasy formats.

From RotoBaller

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Eddie Rosario has opted out of his minor league deal and has been released on Sunday. Rosario only lasted a few weeks with the Brewers before deciding to head back into free agency. Rosario has only played in a handful of games this season between his time with the Los Angeles Dodgers and Atlanta Braves. The 33-year-old will look to catch on elsewhere and hopefully join a big league roster.

From RotoBaller

Athletics first baseman/outfielder Tyler Soderstrom is out of the starting lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Kansas City Royals. This is a rare rest day for Soderstrom who has played in every game since May 5. Soderstrom was off to a fantastic start to the season, but he has slowed down lately. JJ Bleday will cover left field and bat eighth versus left-hander Noah Cameron on Sunday. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups accordingly with Soderstrom heading to the bench.

From RotoBaller

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Carson Palmquist was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday. Palmquist will head back to the big league roster with fellow starter Kyle Freeland (back) heading to the injured list. Palmquist struggled during his first stint with the Rockies. He posted a 7.77 ERA across 22 innings (five starts) with the Rockies before being sent down. The rookie southpaw is back and will take the ball against the Washington Nationals on Monday. Given his struggles, Palmquist isn't a recommended streaming option for Monday's slate.

From RotoBaller

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Shota Imanaga (hamstring) is scheduled to make a rehab start at Triple-A Iowa on Friday. Imanaga made a rehab start on Saturday at Rookie-level Arizona Complex League. He appears to be progressing and is hopefully going to make his final rehab start this upcoming Friday. Imanaga has been out since early May due to a hamstring issue. If everything goes well, Imanaga should be back in the Cubs rotation by the end of June.

Tampa Bay Rays first baseman Yandy Diaz is not in the starting lineup on Sunday when the Rays conclude a series against the New York Mets. Diaz has started in each of the past seven games but will be given a maintenance day on Sunday. Over this stretch, Diaz has posted a strong .433/.485/.733 slash line with one double, one triple, two home runs, and seven RBI. Instead, the Rays will give Jonathan Aranda the start at first base, which opens the DH spot for third baseman Junior Caminero. Fantasy managers should expect Diaz to return to the starting nine on Monday evening when they begin a divisional series against the Baltimore Orioles. The Rays are a strong option in DFS this afternoon, facing New York right-hander Griffin Canning, who enters this game holding a 3.22 ERA.

The Colorado Rockies have placed left-handed pitcher Kyle Freeland (back) on the 15-day injured list prior to their game on Sunday. The 32-year-old is dealing with lower back stiffness. In a corresponding move, the Rockies promoted left-handed pitcher Carson Palmquist from Triple-A Albuquerque. Freeland has begun to find his footing following a slow start to the campaign. Over his last three outings, Freeland has posted a solid 2.95 ERA with a 1.04 WHIP. During this stretch (18 1/3 innings), Freeland has allowed just two walks but has only struck out 13 batters. Through 73 2/3 total innings, Freeland sits with a modest 5.13 ERA and a 1.52 WHIP. Given his struggles, he is not worth stashing on an IR spot while he is sidelined. Fantasy managers should expect Palmquist to see starting opportunities for the time being.
