We might need a review on that. While the ball was definitely crushed, Statcast put it at 117.4 mph, which is rare air indeed. Again, it’d be the hardest hit ball of this Giancarlo Stanton-less season. It’d top his previous high in 45 major league games by five mph (112.5 mph). He topped out at 114.9 mph in Triple-A, so maybe 117.4 isn’t impossible. If it’s legit, we’d have to reevaluate everything here. He’s already off to a nice start with his .320/.393/.480 line in 56 plate appearances. He also has only a 25% strikeout rate, which is really impressive for a player who annually topped 35% in the minors until last year.

Wagaman proved to be a tough out for Gunnar Hoglund and the Athletics’ bullpen in what was an otherwise quiet night for the Marlins’ lineup. Apart from his three hits, he also had three batted balls hit harder than 100 mph and it’s getting difficult to ignore his hot start to the season. He has an acceptable .267 batting average and .731 OPS with solid underlying plate discipline and power metrics while playing every day. That’s a worthwhile player in a lot of leagues.

Bellozo is a real throwback type of pitcher, albeit an ineffective one. He didn’t throw a pitch over 92.7 mph in this game – which is high for him – and forced just three swings-and-misses. Instead, he just moved his cutter all around the strike zone and forced as much soft contact as he could against this talented Athletics lineup. That strategy will often force Bellozo to nibble though and he totally lost the zone during the second inning where he walked three batters, hit another, and gave up a RBI single to Nick Kurtz. His limited skill set makes him uninteresting for even the deepest fantasy leagues.

Lopez sustained the injury while in the field during the first inning of Friday’s battle against the Athletics. He’s currently undergoing further evaluation. Javier Sonaja replaced him at second base on Friday night and could be in line for increased action there if Lopez winds up missing any time.

The Cardinals had no answers for Nimmo in this one, as he reached base safely in all five of his plate appearances and sprayed the ball all over the park. His fifth inning single was right in the middle of the Mets’ rally that chased Sonny Gray from this game and his seventh inning homer was merely icing on the cake. It had been a trying season for Nimmo, until this week. It started with a four hit, two home run, nine RBI game and then this three hit, two walk performance. In just four games, he’s gone from a .575 OPS to a .720 OPS.

In a game that was tied at 1-1 in the ninth, Greene hit a solo blast to give the Tigers a lead. Later that inning, he clobbered a three-run blast to up that score to 9-1. Baseball is weird. Greene has homered eight times in 2025 with a slugging percentage of .504. He’s one of the most underrated young hitting stars in the sport.

The out was his loudest batted ball; he sent Johan Rojas to the wall in center field in a one-run game in the ninth, but Rojas made the catch and had the wind knocked out of him for his trouble. It still went as Gurriel’s first three-hit game of the season, pushing his average back over .200 for the first time in four weeks.
