    Nationals' James Wood: Drives in two runs

    Wood went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an RBI single in Friday's 4-3 win over Baltimore.

    Wood knocked in an RBI single in the sixth inning before tying things up at 3-3 in the eighth, when he took Keegan Akin deep to center field for a 421-foot solo homer. It was Wood's 11th multi-hit game of the season, and since the beginning of May he has slashed .317/379/.533 with two stolen bases, three home runs and six RBI over 66 plate appearances.

  • Eric Wagaman 1B | NYM

    Marlins' Eric Wagaman: Three-hit attack in rout

    Wagaman went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI and one run scored in Friday's 9-4 win over the Rays.

    Wagaman logged three hits for the third time this season, also tallying multiple knocks for the seventh time in 2025. Through 45 at-bats in May, the infielder is hitting .222 with three doubles, one triple, four RBI and two runs scored. Wagaman has consistently hit in the heart of Miami's batting order this year, but the lack of talent around him should continue to restrict his overall fantasy potential.

  • Kyle Finnegan RP | DET

    Nationals' Kyle Finnegan: Secures 14th save

    Finnegan earned the save in Friday's 4-3 win over the Orioles, allowing one hit with one strikeout in a scoreless ninth inning. He did not issue a walk.

    The Nationals brought Finnegan in for the ninth inning to protect a one-run lead. He was able to work around a Jackson Holliday single to secure the save while tossing 15 pitches (nine strikes). Finnegan has earned a save in each of his last five outings, and his 14 saves are second-best in the majors behind Robert Suarez (15). Finnegan has a 2.70 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 17:7 K:BB across 16.2 innings this season.

  • Connor Norby 2B | COL

    Marlins' Connor Norby: Three RBI in multi-hit effort

    Norby went 2-for-5 with a double and three RBI in Friday's 9-4 win over the Rays.

    Norby tied a season high in RBI and recorded his third two-hit game in his last six outings. Over his last 16 contests, the third baseman is hitting .276 (16-for-58) with two homers, four doubles, nine RBI and eight runs scored. Norby hit third in Miami's batting order Friday for the third time this season, which is a move that would enhance his RBI upside if it sticks going forward.

  • Matt Olson 1B | ATL

    Braves' Matt Olson: Rare multi-hit game Friday

    Olson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 4-2 win over Boston.

    It was the first multi-hit game of the month for Olson, who did go deep for the fourth time in May. The All-Star first baseman has only four multi-hit efforts in 2025, and he's batting a mere .196 with seven RBI and seven runs scored over his last 56 at-bats. Olson is ninth in the National League in walks (29), however, and he figures to see a boost in RBI upside once Ronald Acuna (knee) is ready to make his season debut.

  • Braves' Raisel Iglesias: Shaky while collecting eighth save

    Iglesias picked up the save in Friday's 4-2 win over Boston after allowing one run on one hit in the ninth inning. He struck out one.

    Iglesias' uneven start to the season continued, as he's now given up five runs on 11 hits over his past five outings. Among the veteran right-hander's 19 appearances, only six of them have been perfect. Iglesias owns a 5.89 ERA and 1.42 ERA on the campaign, but he does sport a 20:4 K:BB and has converted eight of his 11 save chances as Atlanta's closer.

  • Andre Pallante SP | STL

    Cardinals' Andre Pallante: Continues to pile up groundouts

    Pallante (4-2) earned the win Friday against the Royals after allowing two runs on seven hits and no walks in seven innings. He struck out four.

    Pallante entered Friday with an MLB-high 75 groundball outs, and he continued to keep the opposition off balance against Kansas City. The right-hander induced 13 more groundouts, also working at least six frames for the fifth time in his last seven outings. Pallante has an ordinary 4.11 ERA and 1.33 WHIP while fanning more than four just twice over his nine appearances (50.1 innings) this season, so his lack of strikeout upside should continue to limit his fantasy appeal in a tough matchup versus the Tigers in his next scheduled start.

  • Tylor Megill SP | NYM

    Mets' Tylor Megill: Can't escape third frame in loss

    Megill (3-4) took the loss against the Yankees on Friday, allowing four runs on four hits and five walks while striking out four across 2.2 innings.

    Megill was able to get through the first two innings without much resistance. However, the 29-year-old right-hander ran into trouble in the third frame, when he allowed seven baserunners and four runs and was mercifully lifted after issuing a bases-loaded walk to Oswald Peraza. Despite not making it out of the third inning, Megill tossed 72 pitches (37 strikes). He has yielded four earned runs in each of his last three starts, and for the season he has a 3.74 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 56:22 K:BB across 43.1 innings. Megill is slated to take on the Red Sox at Fenway Park next week.

  • Juan Soto LF | NYM

    Mets' Juan Soto: Draws three walks in Bronx return

    Soto went 0-for-2 with three walks, one steal and one run scored in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Yankees.

    Soto wasn't able to record a hit in his return to Yankee Stadium, but he drew a season-high three walks and recorded his fourth steal of the year in the first inning. Soto has gone 13-for-47 with 12 walks, 11 runs scored, two steals, five home runs and eight RBI since the beginning of May.

  • Max Meyer SP | MIA

    Marlins' Max Meyer: Nabs third win Friday

    Meyer (3-4) earned the win Friday against the Rays after allowing four runs on six hits and no walks in five innings. He struck out seven.

    Meyer continues to struggle with run prevention, yielding at least four runs in his fourth straight start, but his seven punchouts were the most in his past four outings. The 26-year-old right-hander kept the ball in the yard for just the second time in his last six appearances, but he has a 7.97 ERA and 18:9 K:BB over his last 20.1 innings. Meyer could have a hard time getting back on track in his next scheduled start versus the Cubs, who are scoring 5.7 runs per game across their first 45 contests.
