Alonso went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Friday's 7-3 win over the Angels.

The slugger caught the battery of Andrew Wantz and Max Stassi napping in the fifth inning. Alonso has two steals on the season and only seven for his career, but to his credit he's never been caught stealing. Of course, that's not the reason he's a fantasy asset -- the 27-year-old is also slashing .281/.359/.538 with 16 homers and 54 RBI through 59 games in 2022.

Hoskins went 3-for-4 with two solo home runs in Friday's victory over Arizona.

Hoskins scored the first and last runs of Friday's game against the Diamondbacks with two solo home runs, helping the Phillies to a win. The first baseman is in the midst of a four-game hit streak, two of which were multi-hit efforts. Hoskins has a June slash line of .281/.378/.594, and he will look to keep this productive month going as the series against Arizona continues.

Lowe went 2-for-4 with a double and a solo home run in Friday's 8-3 loss to the White Sox.

Lowe is surging at the dish with multiple hits in four of the last five games. He's 9-for-20 with two homers and three RBI during that run. The five-game run is part of a larger surge; Lowe is slashing .347/.382/.653 with nine extra-base hits (six homers), 12 RBI and 12 runs scored over 20 contests.

Walker went 1-for-4 in Friday's 7-5 loss to the Phillies.

Walker was back in the lineup one day after taking a pitch off the helmet during Thursday's game, at which point he was removed with a facial contusion. He should return to his usual near-everyday role at first base.

Dalbec went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 4-3 win over the Mariners.

Dalbec has hit safely in four straight games, going 6-for-15 (.400) in that span. His homer in the seventh inning Friday restored a lead for the Red Sox. The first baseman got his average over the Mendoza Line for the first time since April 13 with the two-hit effort -- he's now slashing .201/.280/.329 with four homers, 15 RBI, 19 runs scored and a stolen base in 168 plate appearances.

Cooper was removed from Friday's win over the Astros due to cramping, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Cooper started at first base and went 0-for-2 with a run, two walks and a strikeout to begin Friday's matchup, but he was replaced defensively in the bottom of the eighth inning. The 31-year-old's injury doesn't sound like a significant concern, so he should be considered day-to-day for now.

Bell went 2-for-5 with a home run, a triple, three RBI, two runs and a strikeout in Friday's 11-5 win over Milwaukee.

Bell had a third consecutive multi-hit performance Friday, but his performance against the Brewers marked the first time that he had produced any runs during that time. The 29-year-old has recorded multiple hits in six of the last 11 matchups, and he has hit .378 with two homers, a triple, two doubles, nine RBI and four runs across that span.

Wade (knee) is being held back from his scheduled rehab assignment due to left hamstring tightness, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Wade was expected to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday, but he was unable to being playing in minor-league games due to his hamstring issue. The 28-year-old will be re-evaluated Monday, and it's possible that he reports to Sacramento sometime next week.

Alonso (hand) is starting Friday against the Angels.

Alonso missed his first game of the season Wednesday due to a hand injury, but he did grip tests prior to Friday's series opener against the Angels. Although he's still dealing with some bruising, he'll be able to start at first base and bat cleanup Friday.

Wade (knee) hasn't yet begun a rehab assignment, Evan Webeck of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Wade was supposed to join Triple-A Sacramento for a rehab assignment Thursday, but he was seen in the Giants' clubhouse ahead of Friday's matchup against the Dodgers. It's not yet clear when the 28-year-old will ultimately be cleared to join the minor-league club, but his rehab assignment should be the final stage of his recovery process.
