Tucker went 1-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Saturday's 10-7 win over the Mariners.

Tucker was one of four Chicago players to go deep in the victory, including Ian Happ, who launched two home runs. Tucker now has 14 bombs for the season, though only two of them have come this month. The talented outfielder had five home runs in May and seven in March and April combined. While he's displaying a little less power in June, Tucker still has a strong .930 OPS with seven doubles in 17 games as he continues to make consistent contact. Overall, he's sporting a robust .915 OPS this year, and the 28-year-old has chipped in 18 stolen bases to supplement his fantasy value.

Keller (3-0) worked around a hit to toss 1.2 scoreless innings and earn the win in Saturday's 10-7 victory over the Mariners. He struck out three.

After starter Cade Horton only covered 4.2 innings for the Cubs, the team turned to Keller for some length. The righty retired more than three batters for the seventh time this season in 33 appearances, and he lowered his ERA to a sparkling 2.00 in the process. Keller also has 36 strikeouts across 36 innings, as the former starter settles comfortably into a middle relief role.

Beeks threw a 1-2-3 eighth inning to record a hold in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Rockies.

Beeks needed seven pitches (five strikes) to mow down the top of Colorado's order and pick up his 10th hold before handing the ball off to closer Shelby Miller. Beeks has been money well spent by the Diamondbacks, who have navigated injuries and subpar performances in what was expected to be the late-game relief crew. He, Ryan Thompson and Miller have stepped in for Justin Martinez (elbow), A.J. Puk (elbow) and Kevin Ginkel (5.22 ERA). Beeks has a 2.97 ERA with 10 holds, one save and a 33:11 K:BB rate over 36.1 innings.

Lawlar has gone 18-for-63 (.286) with 10 extra-base hits, 14 RBI, five steals and 11 runs scored over 15 games since being sent back to Triple-A Reno. He's started at shortstop (nine starts), third base (five) and second base (one).

Lawlar had a rough go of it in the majors during a brief call-up in May, but he's overcome that disappointment and continued to produce at the Triple-A level. Lawlar has a .321/.411/.586 slash line with 19 doubles, four triples, 10 home runs, 45 RBI, 18 steals and 49 runs over 249 plate appearances for the Aces this season.

Busch went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Saturday's win over the Mariners.

Busch deposited a ball into the Wrigley Field bleachers during the third inning. The first baseman is in the midst of a breakout season, slashing .272/.367/.509 with 28 extra-base hits and 44 RBI through 71 games.

Crow-Armstrong went 2-for-4 with a double, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's victory over the Mariners.

The long ball was Crow-Armstrong's 21st home run of the season. The rising star has impressed all year and continued to produce in June, slashing .262/.314/.585 with nine extra-base hits and 11 RBI over 17 games. His combination of power, speed and elite defense in center field has marked him as one of the National League's top position players in 2025.

Happ went 2-for-4 with two homers, one walk and four RBI in Saturday's 10-7 win over the Mariners.

Happ got things going early Saturday with a leadoff homer, then followed it up with a three-run blast in the second inning. While his season power numbers are respectable -- a .423 SLG and 25 extra-base hits -- the left fielder has ramped things up in June, slugging .600 with 10 extra-base hits, including four homers in the last three games.

Horton did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing six runs (three earned) on seven hits and two walks over 4.2 innings against Seattle. He struck out two.

The right-hander wasn't at his sharpest, and a Vidal Brujan error in the fifth inning contributed to his exit. Despite the shortened outing, Horton has put together a solid rookie campaign, posting a 3.73 ERA and 1.29 WHIP over 41 innings across eight appearances, including seven starts.

Burleson went 2-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Saturday's victory over the Reds.

Burleson got the Cardinals on the board with a two-run homer in the first inning, then added an RBI single in the eighth. The 26-year-old extended his hitting streak to nine games, during which he's slashed .410/.415/.718 with six extra-base hits and 10 RBI. On the season, he boasts a .314/.352/.473 line with 19 extra-base hits and 30 RBI across 66 games.

Pozo went 1-for-1 with with a walk-off single in Saturday's 6-5 win over the Reds in 11 innings.

Pozo entered as a defensive replacement in the top of the 11th and came through with a walk-off bloop single to right field in the bottom half of the frame. The catcher, who is back in the majors for the first time since 2021, has served primarily in a backup role for the Cardinals but has made the most of his opportunities, slashing .308/.313/.446 with five extra-base hits and eight RBI over 25 games.
