Canario took Reds lefty Andrew Abbott deep in the fifth inning for his first big fly of the season. The 24-year-old top prospect appears poised to get an extended opportunity this season with the Pirates, but he’s off to a bit of a slow start, hitting .125 (2-for-16) through seven games.

Falter’s middling arsenal doesn’t really hold up very well against lineups like the Dodgers’ starting nine. He also gave up seven runs to the Yankees earlier this season. He has a 3.28 ERA against the Marlins, Reds, Nationals and Angels, though. He’ll face the Padres next.

There’s a good chance the Pirates cost themselves a game or two by not simply shutting down Bryan Reynolds when he was hurting earlier this season and instead benching McCutchen and using an injured player at DH. That’s in the past now; Reynolds is healthy and back in right field, allowing McCutchen to resume his DH duties. One of McCutchen’s singles today left the bat at 110.2 mph, his hardest-hit ball since 2022. He’s hitting .276/.368/.447 in 87 plate appearances.

Horwitz is likely going to need a couple weeks of rehab games to get back up to speed before making his season debut. The 27-year-old will take over as Pittsburgh’s starting first baseman once he’s ready to roll. He’s been out since early February recovering from right wrist surgery.

Hernández continues to be a tremendous source of power, and his two-run homer off Edward Cabrera extended the Dodgers’ lead to 5-0 . It also gives him roundtrippers in three straight games, and he’s up to nine long balls on the 2025 season. He’s currently on pace to hit over 50 homers, and while that’s not likely, it’s certainly possible he breaks his career high of 33 based on what he’s shown thus far.

Carpenter took Ronel Blanco deep for a two-run shot that gave the Tigers a 2-0 lead in the third. The 27-year-old power-hitter has six homers on the season with a .508 slugging percentage. He’s also hit .270 on the year, but fantasy managers would like to see that .298 on-base percentage improve for more chances to score runs.
