Colorado Rockies second baseman Ryan McMahon went 1-for-4 with an RBI double in a 7-2 loss to the San Francisco Giants on Saturday. McMahon added to Colorado's early lead with an RBI double off Anthony DeSclafani in the bottom of the first inning. It was the infielder's only hit of the ball game and the Rockies would be shut out the rest of the way. McMahon has been in a massive power drought over the last few months. He swatted 16 home runs from April-June but has just six over the last three months. Overall, he's batting .255 with a .782 OPS, 22 home runs, 77 RBI, and five stolen bases over 499 at-bats.

Colorado Rockies infielder Ryan McMahon went 1-for-1 with a pinch-hit, two-run homer in a 4-3 win over the Philadelphia Phillies. McMahon didn't start this game and entered as a pinch-hitter in the top of the ninth inning with the Rockies trailing 2-1. He came through in a major way, taking Ian Kennedy deep for a two-run blast, his second home run in the last four games. He's now hit four bombs over the last 15 contests but has a paltry .191/.264/.489 batting line over that same span. For the year, the 26-year-old is slashing .257/.328/.459 with 22 home runs, 72 RBI, and four stolen bases across 460 at-bats.

Colorado Rockies third baseman Ryan McMahon went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and a walk in a 10-5 loss to the San Francisco Giants on Monday. McMahon put the Rockies on the board in the bottom of the second inning when he took Giants starter Kevin Gausman deep with a solo homer, his 21st of the season. The 26-year-old infielder has been slumping at the dish over the last 15 contests, slashing just .184/.268/.408 across 49 at-bats. For the year, McMahon is batting .255 with a .780 OPS, 21 home runs, 70 RBI, and four stolen bases over 451 at-bats. Despite the recent struggles, he's got a chance to set a new career-high in home runs this season. His previous high was 24 back in 2019.

Colorado Rockies Third baseman Ryan McMahon went 1-for-3 with an RBI single and two walks in a 9-5 win over the Texas Rangers on Wednesday. McMahon added on to the Rockies' run total in the fourth inning when he scored Charlie Blackmon with an RBI single. He would reach base two more times in the contest as well. The 26-year-old has been scuffling at the plate over his last 15 games, slashing .200/.241/.327 with a pair of home runs over that span but has still put together a solid season for the most part. He's batting .256 with a .778 OPS, 20 home runs, 68 RBI, and four stolen bases over 437 at-bats.

Colorado Rockies third baseman Ryan McMahon went a combined 1-for-6 with a two-run home run and a strikeout in Wednesday's doubleheader against the Chicago Cubs. McMahon went hitless in the Rockies' game one loss and didn't start game two initially but entered as a pinch-hitter. He came up clutch in the extra-innings of game two as he swatted a two-run homer in the 10th inning off Jake Jewell. The 26-year-old infielder has gone yard just three times since July 1 after swatting 16 bombs over the first three months of the year. Despite the power drought, he's put together a decent season, slashing .263/.333/.458 with 19 home runs, 65 RBI, and four stolen bases over 419 at-bats.

Colorado Rockies infielder Ryan McMahon went 2-for-3 with a double, two RBI, and a walk in an 8-4 loss to the Diamondbacks on Sunday. McMahon put the Rockies on the board in the first inning with an RBI double that scored Connor Joe. He also picked up an RBI single later in the ball game as Colorado attempted to mount a comeback but it wasn't enough. The 26-year-old is now slashing .267/.338/.460 with 18 home runs, 63 RBI, and four stolen bases over 409 at-bats on the season. His early-season power surge has gone by the wayside but he's still been a solid fantasy contributor this season.

Colorado Rockies third baseman Ryan McMahon went 1-for-4 with a double and two strikeouts in a 5-0 loss to the Astros on Tuesday. Colorado couldn't get much of anything going on offense and Jake Odorizzi and company held them down all game. McMahon was one of five Rockies' to collect a hit and the only one to record an extra-base hit in the defeat. The 26-year-old has quietly been raking over the last 30 games, slashing .308/.413/.439 across 107 at-bats. He's been drawing more walks and striking out less but only has two home runs over that 30 game span. Overall, he's slashing .266/.337/.477 with 18 home runs, 58 RBI, and four stolen bases over 369 at-bats. He's been a solid fantasy contributor for most of the season, albeit an inconsistent one.

Colorado Rockies third baseman Ryan McMahon isn't in the team's lineup on Saturday for a matchup with the Miami Marlins and left-handed starter Jesus Luzardo. McMahon is hitting .265 with a .338 on-base percentage, 18 home runs, and four stolen bases in 405 plate appearances. Garrett Hampson is starting in McMahon's place and batting leadoff against Luzardo. Hampson could be worth a look as a streaming option for fantasy managers in deeper leagues looking for additional stolen bases. In 349 plate appearances this year, the 26-year-old is batting .240 with a .291 on-base percentage, six home runs, and 14 stolen bases.

Colorado Rockies third baseman Ryan McMahon went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk, and a strikeout in a 3-2 loss to the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday. McMahon was one of three Rockies' to collect multiple hits in the defeat. He swatted his 21st double of the year and has gone 16- for-53 (.302/.431/.453) with a home run and eight RBI over the last 15 contests. He's still striking out a fair amount (17 K's over that span) but he has also drawn. 11 walks, which is an encouraging sign. Overall, the 26-year-old infielder is slashing .264/.336/.474 with 17 home runs, 55 RBI, and four stolen bases over 352 at-bats. He should remain a solid 2B/3B option down the stretch with the fantasy playoffs around the corner.

NEW YORK (AP) — Joey Votto homered for the seventh straight game, one shy of a major league record, and the Cincinnati Reds beat the New York Mets 6-2 on Friday night. Jonathan India went deep twice for the Reds, including a leadoff shot that came on Carlos Carrasco’s first pitch with the Mets. Acquired from Cleveland in January, the veteran right-hander finally made his New York debut after recovering from a hamstring injury. It was an up-and-down day for the Mets, who made a big deal to get Javier Báez from the Chicago Cubs before baseball’s trade deadline — and then revealed injured ace Jacob deGrom will be shut down for two more weeks because of inflammation in his pitching elbow, making it unlikely he’ll rejoin the NL East leaders before September. Báez was acquired from the Cubs along with right-hander Trevor Williams for outfield prospect Pete Crow-Armstrong, the Mets’ first-round pick in the 2020 amateur draft. Báez is expected to join the Mets on Saturday and will play shortstop... [More]

Colorado Rockies infielder Ryan McMahon went 3-for-3 with a grand slam, two runs scored, and two walks in a 9-4 win over the Padres on Friday. McMahon had a monster day at the plate, reaching base five times in the lopsided win over San Diego. He put the Rockies on the board in a major way in the top of the first inning when he swatted a grand slam off of Ryan Weathers. This was McMahon's first homer since June 15 so he was long overdue. Overall, the 26-year-old slugger is slashing .264/.334/.475 with 17 home runs, 55 RBI, and four stolen bases over 341 at-bats on the year. Despite the power drought, he's on pace to set a new career-high in home runs this season; 24 was the previous mark set back in 2019.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The game between the San Diego Padres and Washington was suspended in the sixth inning Saturday night after police said there was a shooting outside Nationals Park. The shooting, an exchange of gunfire between people in two cars, left three people injured, according to Ashan Benedict, the Metropolitan Police Department’s executive assistant police chief. One of the people who was shot was a woman who was attending the game and who was struck while she was outside the stadium, he said. Her injuries weren’t considered life-threatening. Two people who were in one of the cars later walked into a local hospital with gunshot wounds and were being questioned by investigators, Benedict said, and the extent of their injuries wasn’t immediately clear. Investigators were still trying to locate the second vehicle involved in the shooting. The gunshots caused panic among fans inside the stadium, some of whom ducked for cover, hiding underneath tables and behind seats as announcers... [More]

WASHINGTON (AP) — The game between the San Diego Padres and Washington was suspended in the sixth inning Saturday night after police said there was a shooting outside Nationals Park. Two people were shot, according to a spokesman for the Metropolitan Police Department. Based on preliminary information, investigators believe that one of the victims was an employee at the stadium. Washington police later tweeted that “two additional victims associated with this incident walked into area hospitals for treatment of gunshot wounds.” The Padres had just taken the field for the bottom of the sixth when several loud pops were heard from the left field side of the ballpark. Fans sitting in left field quickly began leaving through the center field gate. A short time later, fans along the first base side began briskly leaving their seats. Some fans crowded into the Padres’ dugout on the third base side for safety. The Padres led 8-4 when the game was halted. It will be resumed Sunday afternoon, followed... [More]

ANAHEIM, Calif.
