Sun Aug 1 2021 | 16:13 | Randy Arozarena Not In Sunday's Lineup |
Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Randy Arozarena isn't in the team's lineup as they get set to take on the Boston Red Sox on Sunday night. Arozarena has hit .257 with a .335 on-base percentage, 14 home runs, and 11 stolen bases in 415 plate appearances this season. It'll be Manuel Margot starting in left field and batting seventh against Boston right-handed starter Nick Pivetta. Margot is batting .245 with a .290 on-base percentage, nine home runs, and nine stolen bases in 303 plate appearances. He's only a streaming option in deeper leagues for Sunday's matchup. |

Sat Jul 31 2021 | 07:12 | Randy Arozarena Hits 14th Homer In Friday’s Win |
Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Randy Arozarena went 2-for-5 with a solo home run during Friday's 7-3 win over the Red Sox. He took Martin Perez deep in the fourth inning for his 14th long ball of the season. After slumping in the beginning of July (.125/.250/.167 slash line), the 2020 ALCS MVP has been on fire since the All-Star break, slashing .314/.352/.627 with four home runs, seven RBI, and 10 runs scored over 13 games. Arozarena is a five-category contributor, and fantasy managers should continue to start the 26-year-old in all league formats. |

Sat Jul 31 2021 | 02:55 | Joey Votto homers for 7th straight game, 1 shy of MLB record |
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] |

Fri Jul 23 2021 | 03:24 | Rays rally past Tribe after trading for slugger Nelson Cruz |
CLEVELAND (AP) — Austin Meadows hit an RBI single in the 10th inning to cap Tampa Bay’s comeback in a 5-4 win over the Cleveland Indians on Thursday night, hours after the Rays acquired slugger Nelson Cruz from Minnesota. Meadows’ one-out liner off Bryan Shaw (3-4) brought home Randy Arozarena, who began the 10th at second base. Down 4-2 in the ninth, the Rays rallied to tie it against closer James Karinchak on a leadoff homer by Yandy Diaz and Brandon Lowe’s two-out RBI double. Pete Fairbanks (3-3) pitched the ninth and Diego Castillo struck out Franmil Reyes and Bobby Bradley with the potential tying run at third in the 10th for his 14th save. The Rays announced their acquisition of Cruz just before the first pitch. Needing a big bat for the playoff push, Tampa Bay got a potent one from the disappointing Twins. Cruz has 436 career homers, and his presence alone will re-shape Tampa Bay’s lineup. Indians starter Cal Quantrill allowed just one run in six strong innings before turning it... [ More] |

Marcus Stroman pitched one-hit ball for eight innings, Dominic Smith launched a grand slam and the New York Mets cruised to a 7-0 win over the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday. Stroman (7-8) gave up a leadoff single to Aristides Aquino in the third inning and little else. He struck out seven and walked one while giving New York’s beleaguered bullpen precious rest going into Thursday’s day off. Jeurys Familia struck out three in a hitless ninth. Luis Guillorme hit his first homer of the season and Jonathan Villar also connected for the NL East leaders. Mets manager Luis Rojas returned to the dugout after serving a two-game suspension for excessive arguing on Sunday. Jeff Hoffman (3-5) came off the 10-day injured list to make his first start since May 26 and lasted four innings, allowing seven hits — including Smith's slam — and five runs with three walks.
