  • Otto Lopez SS | MIA

    Marlins' Otto Lopez: Reaches double-digit homers

    Lopez went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's loss to the Orioles.

    The 26-year-old infielder accounted for all of Miami's offense on the night by taking Andrew Kittredge deep in the ninth inning. Lopez is up to double digits in both homers (10) and steals (10) on the year, and since the beginning of June he's slashing a respectable .270/.333/.418 over 36 games with 21 runs and 28 RBI.

  • Luke Williams 2B | ATL

    Braves' Luke Williams: Tough night Friday

    Williams went 0-for-3 with three strikeouts after replacing Austin Riley (abdomen) in the fourth inning of Friday's win over the Cardinals.

    Williams also committed a throwing error at third base after being pressed into duty when Riley exited the game with what the team labeled as lower-abdominal tightness. Williams has seen little action this season in a utility role, going just 2-for-18 in 25 games for Atlanta. There's no word yet on the severity of Riley's injury, but with the All-Star break coming up, he may be held out the rest of the weekend just as a precaution, leaving Williams as the only viable option currently on the big-league roster to fill in at the hot corner.

  • Willy Adames SS | SF

    Giants' Willy Adames: Launches homer in win

    Adames went 2-for-4 with a home run, a triple, three RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 8-7 win over the Dodgers.

    Adames opened the scoring with a solo shot in the second inning and added a two-run triple in the fifth as part of a five-run rally for the Giants. Over 10 games in July, Adames has gone 13-for-36 (.361) with seven extra-base hits and 12 RBI. He's starting to cash in on the potential that the Giants saw when signing him to a seven-year, $182 million contract in December. Overall, the shortstop is at a .225/.312/.382 slash line with 12 homers, 48 RBI, 53 runs scored, four stolen bases, 14 doubles and two triples through 94 contests.

  • Padres' Xander Bogaerts: Racks up three hits in win

    Bogaerts went 3-for-4 with one run scored in Friday's 4-2 win over the Phillies.

    Bogaerts has a trio of three-hit efforts over his last 13 games, batting .383 (18-for-47) in that span. All three hits were singles Friday, and the shortstop has just one extra-base hit, a double, across his last 10 contests. The lack of power remains a concern, but the contact-driven surge has him up to a .264/.338/.368 slash line through 92 games this season.

  • Mets' Francisco Lindor: Extends hit streak to six

    Lindor went 2-for-4 with a walk and a three-run home run during Friday's 8-3 win over the Royals.

    Over the course of Lindor's six-game hit streak, he is 8-for-23 (.348 batting average) with two doubles, four walks, two homers and eight RBI. The home run was 19th of the season for the All-Star shortstop, who is slashing .263/.335/.465 on the year.

  • Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Doubles twice in loss

    Perdomo went 2-for-4 with a walk, two doubles and an RBI in Thursday's 4-3 loss to San Diego.

    The two doubles increased Perdomo's total to 20, the third consecutive season he's delivered at least 20 two-baggers. He's overcome a shaky beginning to June and hit safely in 16 of the last 21 contests, posting a slash line of .301/.414/.458 during that span. Other than that stretch in June, Perdomo has been remarkably consistent in 2025 and overall sports a .980 OPS with runners in scoring position, which has fueled a career-high 65 RBI through the first 93 games.

  • Dansby Swanson SS | CHC

    Cubs' Dansby Swanson: Productive in win Thursday

    Swanson went 2-for-5 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Thursday's 8-1 win over the Twins.

    Swanson was one of five Chicago players to record multiple hits in the easy win. The shortstop is now riding a nine-game hitting streak, and he's batting .342 this month with a home run, four RBI and seven runs scored. Swanson remains a steady fantasy performer who plays nearly every day, which gives him a stable floor for managers.

  • Aidan Miller SS | PHI

    Phillies' Aidan Miller: Running wild at Double-A

    Miller is slashing .261/.400/.457 with three home runs and 16 steals in his last 25 games for Double-A Reading.

    Miller was known more for his bat than his speed when the Phillies selected him in the first round a couple years ago, but he's been running wild this year for the Fightin Phils. He got off to a slow start at Double-A, but Miller has come on strong lately and is walking at an 18.3 percent clip over this 25-game stretch. Miller has only played shortstop since getting drafted, but there's a chance he will eventually move to third base.

  • Otto Lopez SS | MIA

    Marlins' Otto Lopez: Pilfers 10th bag

    Lopez went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Wednesday's loss to the Reds.

    The 26-year-old infielder keeps finding ways to make a fantasy contribution. Over his last 24 games, Lopez is slashing .289/.346/.402 with three of his nine homers and three of his 10 steals on the season, along with a stunning 15 runs and 20 RBI.

  • Konnor Griffin SS | PIT

    Pirates' Konnor Griffin: Looking like future star

    Griffin is slashing .312/.414/.505 with four home runs and 14 steals in 24 games for High-A Greensboro.

    Griffin has 13 homers and 40 steals in 74 games across Single-A and High-A in his first pro season after getting selected ninth overall in last year's draft. A 6-foot-4 shortstop who has also played eight games in center field, Griffin is an elite athlete who seems to be getting better as a hitter as the season goes on. He had a 22.9 percent strikeout rate and 6.5 percent walk rate in 50 games at Single-A and has a 19.8 percent strikeout rate and 11.7 percent walk rate so far at High-A. Once Roman Anthony graduates, Griffin will have a strong case for being the No. 1 overall prospect for dynasty leagues.
