Winners
BrandonLowe ($4,300)
Brandon Lowe feasted on the BostonRed Sox yesterday at the dish, going 3-for-5 with a pair of home runs, threeRBI, and he crossed the plate three times. He upped his average to .288 and nowhas a team-high 13 home runs. Yesterday was his first multi-homer game sinceApril 12 against the Blue Jays.
Lowe’sOutlook
Lowe has been on fire this pastweek, posting a .357 (10-for-28) batting average in his past seven games withtwo homers and six RBI. Lowe and the rest of the Rays head home to face offagainst the Oakland Athletics tonight. They will be facing Tanner Anderson, whohas posted a 6.26 ERA in 11 games in Triple-A this season. Look for Lowe tocontinue driving the ball and potentially get a couple of extra base hits.
EdwinEncarnacion ($4,800)
Edwin Encarnacion has been making itlook like he’s in the HR Derby the past couple of weeks with his production andyesterday was no different. Against Jose Suarez and the rest of the Angels’pitching staff, he went 2-for-5 with both hits leaving the yard. He alsotallied three RBI and a couple of runs scored.
Encarnacion’sOutlook
Encarnacion has been hitting homeruns like crazy this year, now with 20. He also now has 400 career HRs. He isputting up the power numbers in bunches, hitting seven home runs in the past 15games played. Encarnacion and the Mariners travel to Minnesota to take on theTwins on Tuesday night. Martin Perez is a solid candidate to have a bounce-backstart, so fade Encarnacion on Tuesday’s slate.
NoahSyndergaard ($8,900)
Syndergaard proved his worth. Hefaced a solid Colorado Rockies lineup and went seven scoreless and only allowedone hit, two walks and seven strikeouts while picking up his fourth win of theseason. He has performed well in his last three starts and is proving to be avaluable asset for DFS players.
Syndergaard’sOutlook
Syndergaard has been phenomenal thepast six weeks outside of the start against the Detroit Tigers on May 24. He isproviding length at 6.1 innings per start and just over one home run allowedper nine innings. His next scheduled start is Saturday at home against the St.Louis Cardinals. The Cardinals are posting a .735 OPS, which is 19th inbaseball, so expect Syndergaard to not have much trouble in his next matchup.
Losers
ShaneBieber ($10,200)
Bieber did not provide the outingrequired against the New York Yankees. He went 1.2 innings and gave up fiveruns on five hits. He also had four strikeouts with two walks and gave up ahome run. After getting the first two outs in the second, he allowed the nexteight Yankees to reach base safely before being pulled. Expect Bieber to have abounce-back outing in his next start.
Bieber’sOutlook
Coming into the game yesterday, Bieberhad been the Indians’ most productive starting pitcher this season. However, hedid not provide length, and with one of the largest prices on the slate, hefailed provide value. The Yankees work the count and get on base at a .330clip. Bieber’s next outing is slated for next Sunday on the road against theDetroit Tigers, the second-worst hitting team in the AL. Look for Bieber toredeem himself the next time around.
CodyBellinger ($5,600)
Bellinger did not look good againstMadison Bumgarner and the San Francisco Giants yesterday. He went hitless infour at-bats with two of them ending in strike three. Bellinger is in the midstof a severe cold streak and is capable of breaking out in any game. However,with the price tag he carries, avoid Bellinger until he begins to hit again.
Bellinger’sOutlook
Bellinger is not hitting right now,even with a .355 batting average on the season. In his last seven games, he is4-for-25 (.160 average) with eight strikeouts. He finished the three-game setagainst the Giants 0-for-9 with three walks. The Dodgers have an interleaguematchup against the Angels beginning tonight and maybe a day off to gatherhimself would benefit Bellinger the most.
