Tue Oct 19 202122:32Christian Arroyo Hits Two-Run Homer In Game 3Christian Arroyo2B/3BIndiansFree Agent
Boston Red Sox infielder Christian Arroyo knocked a two-run homer in Boston's 12-3 rout of the Houston Astros in Game 3 of the ALCS Monday. For the game he went 1-for-4 with three RBI and two runs scored. Arroyo has recorded a hit in three straight games. Any offense from him is a bonus for the club, as Jose Iglesias was a major contributor down the stretch of the regular season but is ineligible for the playoffs. Arroyo is unlikely to be a fantasy priority in 2022.

Tue Oct 19 202122:28Christian Vazquez Scores Twice, Drives In Two In Game 3Christian VázquezCRed SoxFree Agent
Boston Red Sox catcher Christian Vazquez has found his offensive game at the right time, as he had another strong playoff performance in Boston's 12-3 ALCS Game 3 victory over the Houston Astros Monday. Vazquez went 2-for-4 with two RBI and two runs scored. He now has three multi-hit performances in his last six games. After finishing the season with a .659 OPS in 138 games this year, this could be a good sign for his future fantasy value.

Tue Oct 19 202122:21Hunter Renfroe Scores Twice, Steals A BaseHunter RenfroeLFRaysFree Agent
Boston Red Sox outfielder Hunter Renfroe didn't record a hit in Monday's ALCS Game 3 victory over the Houston Astros, but he did contribute two walks, two runs, and a stolen base in four plate appearances. Renfroe has not enjoyed a strong postseason thus far, with just seven hits in 31 at-bats. He's doubled twice, scored four times, and driven in just one run. He was even pinch-hit for with Danny Santana in a big spot in Game 1. Renfroe was a major part of Boston's regular-season success, but fantasy managers will want to take note of his usage down the stretch.

Tue Oct 19 202122:15J.D. Martinez Homers Again In ALCS Game 3J.D. MartinezDHRed SoxFree Agent
Boston Red Sox designated hitter J.D. Martinez continued his hot hitting in Game 3 of the ALCS Monday, going 2-for-3 with a home run, a double, a walk, two RBI, and two runs scored. Martinez has now recorded 11 hits in 27 postseason at-bats this season with three homers, 10 RBI, and four runs scored. He seems to have regained some balance and timing at the plate since injuring his ankle tripping over second base in the season finale, and fantasy managers have to be wondering if he should do so intermittently during the 2022 season.

There aren't many players above him on draft boards heading into the 2022 fantasy season.

Boston Red Sox first baseman/outfielder Kyle Schwarber hit Boston's third grand slam in two days in Game 3 of the ALCS against the Houston Astros on Monday. He smacked a 3-0 pitch over the wall to put Boston up 4-0, a lead they never relinquished in a 12-3 victory. It was his only hit in four at-bats. Schwarber is a perennially strong playoff performer, and he now has three homers, six RBI, eight runs scored, and a steal in 34 at-bats this postseason. He'll be a major boon to MLB and fantasy rosters next season wherever he ends up.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez accomplished a rare feat in Game 3 Monday against the Houston Astros, throwing a quality start in the postseason. He lasted six innings, allowing three runs on five hits and no walks with seven strikeouts. He also took his first career postseason win in his 11th appearance. Rodriguez lines up for a potential Game 7 should the series extend that far. This was one of his most dominant appearances of the season, and fantasy managers should take note heading into 2022.

Sun Oct 17 202121:11Eduardo Rodriguez To Start ALCS Game 3Eduardo RodriguezSPRed SoxFree Agent
Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Eduardo Rodriguez is expected to start Game 3 of the ALCS against the Houston Astros in Boston on Monday. Rodriguez made two starts in the Division Series against the Rays, throwing 6 2/3 innings and allowing four runs on five hits and two walks with seven strikeouts combined. He was much sharper in the second outing, throwing five solid innings. Manager Alex Cora will be hoping for similar length against a tough Houston lineup, though he won't hesitate to have a quick hook should Rodriguez falter.

Sun Oct 17 202121:07Rafael Devers Joins Grand-Slam Party In Game 2Rafael Devers3BRed SoxFree Agent
Boston Red Sox third baseman Rafael Devers (forearm) saw teammate J.D. Martinez deliver a grand slam in the first inning of Game 2, and he followed up with a slam of his own in the top of the second. Devers also walked and scored a run in five plate appearances. He's gone 9-for-29 with three homers, 10 RBI, and seven runs scored this postseason, which is especially impressive considering he's been dealing with a sore forearm. It doesn't seem to be slowing him down at all, and he isn't expected to miss any time despite appearing to aggravate it on a missed swing.
