Realmuto had not homered since April 15, but the 34-year-old backstop took Eduardo Salazar deep to extend the Phillies lead to 7-2. He also singled to improve his slash to a still-shaky .237/.308/.361 over the first 30 games of the 2025 campaign. If not for the positional value, Realmuto would be unplayable. Because he’s a catcher, you can probably do worse. Weird how that works.

Kepler gave Philadelphia a lead of 6-2 with a solo homer off an ineffective Jake Irvin. The 32-year-old has been solid — if unspectacular — in his first full month with the Phillies, but it’s nice to see some power showing up with homers in two of the last four games after just one roundtripper in the month of April prior to that run.

Schwarber’s homer is the ninth of the season for the 32-year-old slugger, and it gave the Phillies a 3-0 lead in the first inning. He’s gone deep in back-to-back games, and he ended the month of April with six roundtrippers with the other three coming in March. There are very few better power producers in the sport than Schwarber, and while he doesn’t contribute in many other categories, it’s certainly good enough that you want him in your fantasy lineup.

Sánchez left his last outing with forearm soreness, and while the 28-year-old did issue three walks, it didn’t appear to be bugging him too much. The southpaw scattered five hits and a pair of walks, and he struck out six. It’s far from a dominant effort from Sánchez, but effective enough. He’ll get the start again Tuesday when the Phillies take on the Rays.

Evan in a month where Contreras didn’t exactly live up to his lofty expectations, the approach never changed. With two free passes, he’s drawn two walks in back-to-back games, and his on-base percentage is a very healthy .376 over the first 30 games of 2025. He’s also hit a decent .260 in that timeframe, but fantasy managers are still waiting to see some pop from Contreras on a more consistent basis with just three five -base hits over 107 at-bats. The pop should start showing up, as he’s far too talented a hitter to be slugging just .365 for much longer.

Naylor gave the Guardians a commanding four-run lead with his seventh-inning no-doubter to right field against Twins reliever Brock Stewart. The 25-year-old backstop has homered in back-to-back games and is up to four round-trippers on the season.

MLB.com’s Kennedi Landry reports Higashioka may require a trip to the injured list, but that hasn’t happened yet. The Rangers are bringing veteran Tucker Barnhart up from the minors as emergency catching depth behind starter Jonah Heim.
