Jazz Chisholm CF | NYY
Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Continues steals surge
Chisholm went 2-for-3 with a triple, two walks, two runs and two stolen bases Tuesday in a 9-1 victory versus the Twins.
Since July 30, Chisholm has stolen multiple bags in a contest three times, and seven of his 17 total thefts have come during that 12-game span. The speedy infielder is batting just .227 during the stretch, but he's added two homers while scoring eight times. Though Chisholm's overall .242 batting average is on pace to be the lowest regular-season mark of his career, his .811 OPS is tracking to be his second-highest career mark, as he's swatted 20 homers and is taking free passes more frequently than ever (11.4 percent walk rate).

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Homers, swipes bag Monday
Chisholm went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and a stolen base in Monday's 6-2 victory versus Minnesota.
Chisholm hit one of four solo homers by New York in the win, going deep to right-center field in the eighth inning.

Ramon Urias 2B | STL
Astros' Ramon Urias: Big offensive output in win
Urias went 3-for-4 with a double, a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Monday's victory over the Red Sox.
Urias played a key role in Monday's win, collecting a pair of extra-base hits. Since joining the Astros, the infielder has slashed .333/.400/.611 over seven games with two doubles, a homer and three RBI. He has started three of the last seven games and makes for a nice option in deeper daily leagues, especially when he's at home, as he is well-suited to take advantage of the Crawford Boxes in left field.
