Taylor Ward

Taylor Ward went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI on Sunday as the Angels dropped the finale of their three-game set against the Orioles.
Ward atoned for his defensive miscue in the top half of the first inning by smacking a run-scoring double off of Zach Eflin that tied the game at 1-1. He then came around to score on an RBI single off the bat of Logan O’Hoppe. Even with the two-hit attack though, Ward is slashing a miserable .182/.226/.385 on the season to go with eight homers and 17 RBI.
Tyler Anderson

Tyler Anderson pitched decently in a losing effort against the Orioles on Sunday afternoon, allowing three runs (one earned) on four hits over his five frames.
The 35-year-old southpaw punched out five batters on the day while issuing a pair of free passes. The Orioles got him for a run in the opening inning on a “triple” by Adley Rutschman which was really a fly ball that Taylor Ward lost in the sun. They then tacked on a pair of unearned runs in the fifth, and that was enough to sink Anderson in this one. He got nine swings and misses on 94 pitches on the day, posting a CSW of 22 percent. He’ll carry an impressive 2.58 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and a 39/17 K/BB ratio (45 1/3 innings) into a tough matchup against the Dodgers at Dodger Stadium on Saturday.

Mookie Betts went 3-for-5 with a homer and three runs scored on Sunday as the Dodgers walloped the Diamondbacks in Arizona.
Betts put the exclamation point on the victory for the Dodgers with a first-pitch, 393-foot (101.8 mph EV) solo shot off of Jose Castillo in the ninth inning. With his three-hit attack, the dynamic 32-year-old shortstop is now slashing .272/.351/.435 with six homers, 24 RBI and three stolen bases on the season.
Xavier Edwards

Xavier Edwards went 2-for-4 with a walk, run scored, an RBI and a stolen base against the White Sox on Sunday.
Edwards can be difficult to evaluate from a fantasy perspective. On one hand, he’s scored 18 runs and has 11 stolen bases this season, which is what his fantasy managers were looking for from him when they drafted him. He also has 11 RBI. On the other hand, he’s hitting just .259 with no power whatsoever. Edwards now has just one home run and a .066 ISO 139 career MLB games. Speed is certainly important in fantasy and Edwards could push for 50 steals this year, but his .328 average in 70 games last year looks like a fluke and he might just be a one or two category player this year.
Francisco Lindor

Francisco Lindor went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a 6-2 win over the Cubs on Sunday.
Lindor homered off Porter Hodge to break a 2-2 tie in the eighth inning. It was his ninth home run and 26th RBI of the year. He has been well worth his late-first, early-second-round draft price so far this season.
