Cincinnati Reds right-handed pitching prospect Chase Burns continued his impressive run at Double-A on Tuesday evening. In his outing against Double-A Rocket City, the Wake Forest product logged five innings of one-run ball en route to picking up the victory. He allowed just two hits and one free pass. He struck out seven. Since moving up to Double-A, the former second overall pick from last year's MLB Draft has held a stellar 1.88 ERA with a 0.88 WHIP. He has struck out 35 batters in just 24 innings of work and flashed near-perfect control, allowing just three walks. He began his campaign at High-A Dayton, where he logged 11 2/3 innings to the tune of a 3.09 ERA and a 0.86 WHIP. Given his impressive start to the season, Burns remains in play for a second-half MLB debut.

Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Rhys Hoskins had a productive game in his team's 5-2 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Tuesday. Hoskins went 2-for-4 with a double, a solo homer, and two runs scored to help lead his team to the win. The veteran first baseman's homer came off Baltimore closer Felix Bautista in the eighth inning, giving the Brewers a 4-2 lead. Hoskins is enjoying a solid season in 2025, hitting .297 with six homers, 16 runs, 26 RBI, and two steals across 145 at-bats. He's on a tear at the plate lately, hitting .409 with two homers and seven RBI over his past seven games.

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Yoan Moncada had a big game in his team's 7-5 win over the Athletics on Tuesday. Moncada went 2-for-5 with a three-run homer to help power his team to the win. The veteran infielder's homer was a big one as it tied the game at 4-4 in the fifth inning. He absolutely crushed the ball as it traveled 439 feet with an exit velocity of 108.7 MPH. Moncada is off to a slow start with his new team, hitting .229 with four homers, 12 runs, and 16 RBI over 70 at-bats, although he missed almost a month of the season with a thumb sprain. He will look to stay hot on Wednesday.

Philadelphia Phillies DH Kyle Schwarber had a productive game in his team's 7-4 win over the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday. Schwarber went 1-for-4 with a solo homer, a walk, and two runs scored in the winning effort. The veteran slugger's homer gave the Phillies an insurance run in the seventh inning, pushing their lead to 5-1. Schwarber is now hitting .257 with 17 homers, 35 runs, 37 RBI, and four steals across 175 at-bats this season. He is hitting just .192 over his past seven games, but fantasy gamers need to keep him in those starting lineups for his power upside alone.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Randy Arozarena finished 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts in Tuesday's 1-0 loss to the Chicago White Sox. The White Sox used five pitchers to combine for the shutout victory over the Mariners. It was the second straight 0-for-4 outing for Arozarena, who has nevertheless posted quality numbers in 2025. The 30-year-old has amassed 195 plate appearances and batted .230/.364/.404 with six home runs and nine stolen bases, putting him on track for a fifth consecutive 20-20 campaign. He and the Mariners have a tough matchup Wednesday against White Sox right-hander Shane Smith, owner of a stellar 2.05 ERA across 48 1/3 innings.

Athletics first baseman Nick Kurtz had a productive game in a 7-5 loss to the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday. Kurtz went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in the losing effort. The rookie's homer came in the fourth inning, giving the Athletics a 4-1 lead. Kurtz, the team's 2024 first-round draft pick, is now hitting .222 with two homers, seven runs, and eight RBI over 81 at-bats in his first taste of the big leagues. Kurtz is still batting near the bottom of the A's lineup, but he remains a bat worth monitoring in fantasy.

Los Angeles Angels catcher Logan O'Hoppe had a big night in his team's 7-5 win over the Athletics on Tuesday. O'Hoppe went 2-for-5 with a homer and two RBI in the win. The veteran slugger's solo homer came in the fourth inning, tying the game at 1-1. He later came back with a clutch RBI single in the fifth inning to give the Angels a 5-4 lead. O'Hoppe is enjoying a productive start to the season, hitting .264 with 11 homers, 15 runs, and 25 RBI over 144 at-bats. The veteran is establishing himself as a legitimate power threat from the catcher position in fantasy.

Baltimore Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson finished 1-for-4 and added his fourth stolen base of the season in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers. Henderson posted poor numbers in April as he worked back from an intercostal strain, but the 2024 American League MVP candidate has enjoyed a rebound this month. The 23-year-old has hit safely in 13 of 17 contests in May, slashing .288/.347/.530. That's similar to Henderson's line from last season, when he slashed .281/.364/.529, mashed 37 home runs, and swiped 21 bases. The 23-year-old will look to continue his solid May in Wednesday's matchup versus Brewers right-hander Chad Patrick.

From RotoBaller

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle provided a bright spot for the Rockies in Tuesday's 7-4 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies. The 27-year-old went 1-for-2 with a double, two walks, two runs scored, and a stolen base. Doyle had endured a miserable Mup until Tuesday, as he entered the game on a 10-for-64 skid this month. Overall, Doyle has produced a subpar .208/.265/.329 line with four home runs and five steals across 162 plate appearances this season. That's not what fantasy managers had in mind on the heels of Doyle's breakout 2024, in which he slashed .260/.317/.446 with 23 HRs and 30 SBs. However, there are some positive signs: Doyle's strikeout rate sits at a career-best 24.1% (down from 35% in 2023 and 25.4% last year), while his .250 BABIP and .321 xwOBA indicate he has been a victim of poor fortune. Still seeking his first home run of May, Doyle will take on Phillies right-hander Taijuan Walker on Wednesday.

Kansas City Royals shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. finished 1-for-4 with an RBI single and a pair of strikeouts in the team's 3-2 loss to the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday. It's the first RBI since May 12 for Witt, who has slumped of late. Witt owned a season-high .920 OPS on May 10, but he has gone a meager 7-for-35 with eight strikeouts and two walks in nine games since then. While the two-time 30-home run hitter is also amid a 12-game HR drought, there's no reason to fret. Witt's still slashing a superb .301/.367/.503 through 218 plate appearances. Although Giants catcher Patrick Bailey threw him out on an attempted steal Tuesday, he still ranks near the top of the majors with 16 SBs. He will look to bust out of his mini-slump in Wednesday's game against Giants ace Logan Webb.

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto tossed a gem in a 4-3 win in 10 innings over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday. Yamamoto threw seven innings of scoreless ball while allowing just one hit, walking two, and striking out nine. He had to settle for a no-decision, however, as the Los Angeles bullpen was not able to hold onto a 1-0 lead after he departed. Yamamoto has been dominant over 10 starts this season, posting a 5-3 record, 1.86 ERA, 0.91 WHIP, and 68 strikeouts over 58 innings of work. With a road date against the Cleveland Guardians up next for the ace, Yamamoto remains a must-start in fantasy whenever he takes the mound.

Athletics catcher Shea Langeliers hit his ninth homer of the season in a 7-5 loss to the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday. Langeliers ultimately went 2-for-4 with the solo homer and two runs scored in the loss. The veteran catcher has shown excellent power this season, posting a .256 average, six doubles, nine homers, 21 runs, 25 RBI, and three steals across 160 at-bats. With two straight 20-homer seasons under his belt, Langeliers has established himself as a high-end fantasy catcher moving forward.

Detroit Tigers outfielder Riley Greene had a huge game in his team's 5-4 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday. Greene went 3-for-4 with a double, a homer, and four RBI to help lead his team to the win. The veteran outfielder gave Detroit a 4-0 lead with his two-run homer in the third inning, a missile that had an exit velocity of 108.3 MPH. Greene is off to a fast start this season, hitting .286 with 10 doubles, 12 homers, 27 runs, 34 RBI, and one steal. He is well on his way to a career year, hitting in the middle of a dangerous Detroit lineup.

San Francisco Giants right-hander Hayden Birdsong turned in an excellent start in a 3-2 win over the Kansas City Royals on Tuesday. Birdsong allowed just one unearned run over five innings of work while giving up five hits, walking none, and posting four strikeouts. The young hurler is putting together an excellent second season in the big leagues, with a 2-0 record, 1.91 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, and 29 strikeouts over 28 1/3 innings of work. Birdsong will have a tougher test in his next start, which comes against the red-hot Detroit Tigers on Monday.

From RotoBaller

Chicago White Sox right-hander Adrian Houser notched a quality start in a 1-0 win over the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday. Houser threw six innings of shutout ball while allowing two hits and walking three with two strikeouts to earn the win. It was the 2025 debut for Houser, who wasted little time getting acclimated to his new team after the Texas Rangers released him earlier in the week. Houser will hope for another chance to show what he can do in the Chicago rotation.

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Spencer Strider (hamstring) did not have his best stuff in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Nationals. Strider, who was making his return from the 15-day injured list due to a right hamstring injury, pitched 4 1/3 innings, allowing four runs on six hits (including a solo home run) and a walk with three strikeouts. He also hit two batters. The 26-year-old has only made two starts this season and has not been what fantasy managers were hoping for, going 0-2 with a 5.79 ERA, a 1.39 WHIP, and eight strikeouts in 9 1/3 IP. While injuries are still a concern, fantasy managers should not put much stock in Strider's stat line, given his small sample size and the fact that he has not had the chance to really get into the swing of things. His next scheduled start will be a middling one against the Padres. While his results have been lacking, fantasy managers may find it difficult to sit him given his upside.

From RotoBaller

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Logan Henderson continued to make a good impression in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Orioles. Henderson pitched five innings, allowing no runs on two hits and two walks with seven strikeouts. The 23-year-old has made two consecutive starts for the Brewers and three on the season, going 3-0 with a 1.69 ERA, a 0.81 WHIP, and a 12.94 K/9 rate in 16 IP. Henderson showed high strikeout upside with low ERA's throughout his minor-league career and could be a potential fantasy option if he can continue to translate his skills in the big leagues. Should he stick around, his next scheduled start would be an excellent matchup at the Pirates.

From RotoBaller

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge continued to be a fantasy juggernaut in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Rangers. Judge went 2-for-4 with a single, a two-run home run, and a strikeout. He also stole a base. The 33-year-old snuck an eighth-inning Caleb Boushley sweeper just over the right-field corner wall for his 16th long ball of the season, putting him just behind Shohei Ohtani and Kyle Schwarber for the most in baseball. Judge has once again been one of fantasy's best hitters, slashing .403/.491/.762 with 43 RBI and four stolen bases in 214 plate appearances.

From RotoBaller

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Walker Buehler (shoulder) only made it 2 1/3 innings in Tuesday's 2-0 win over the Mets. Buehler got tossed in the top of the third inning for arguing a strike with the home-plate umpire. He allowed no hits and two walks with four strikeouts on 52 pitches. He also hit two batters. The 30-year-old was making his return from the 15-day injured list, so fantasy managers may not have started him for what ended up being an abbreviated outing. Buehler has had a solid season overall, going 4-1 with a 4.00 ERA, a 1.19 WHIP, and an 8.25 K/9 rate in seven starts and 36 IP. His next scheduled start will be against a slumping Orioles lineup.

Cleveland Guardians outfield prospect Chase DeLauter (abdomen) went 1-for-4 with a walk and a two-run home run on Tuesday for the ACL Guardians. The 23-year-old is there on a rehab assignment, hitting just .182 (4-for-22), but now with two home runs in eight games. Once the assignment is complete, the Guardians' second-ranked prospect will likely head to Triple-A, and if he can manage to stay healthy, a debut with the big league club could happen later this year. Maintaining health has been an issue for him, though, totaling just 96 games over the last two seasons due to multiple injuries. The former first-round draft pick has performed well when on the field, owning a .310 batting average and .893 OPS during his minor league career. With low strikeout rates and the ability to hit for both contact and power, the 6-foot-3 slugger could be an impact fantasy player in the second half of the season, so fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression.
