Candelario got on the board with his first-inning blast off Bailey Falter. He had just one previous extra-base hit while batting .140/.208/.162 in 12 games. A corner infielder playing 81 games per year in GABP wouldn’t need to be very good in order to generate some mixed-league value, but Candelario has still fallen short of the standard since lancing a three-year, $45 million deal prior to last season. He’s probably not hopeless, but nothing so far this year has been very encouraging.

Pagán was summoned to close out the game with a three-run lead in the ninth against the Rockies. He walked a batter and allowed a run in on a double before striking out the side for his seventh save of the season. The 33-year-old right-hander is pitching well as the Reds’ closer, posting a 2.70 ERA and 0.53 WHIP across 13 1/3 innings.

McMahon will be out of the lineup for the first time in 2025. The 30-year-old has scuffled mightily with a .528 OPS to begin the campaign, and the Rockies will give him a chance to reset in the series finale against Cincinnati. McMahon has had ups and downs throughout his career, and he’s a great bounceback candidate in the coming weeks.

Maybe the Orioles’ second-best player to date, Urías is batting .340/.403/.434 in 62 plate appearances, and he’s stealing away Ryan Mountcastle’s playing time against righties. He probably doesn’t have any mixed-league value himself — he’s a zero in steals and he doesn’t typically hit for average — but he’s making an impact by cutting into the value of others.

Ramírez put Cleveland on the scoreboard with a run-scoring single to right field in the opening frame. He also picked up his fifth steal of the year a little later in the inning. The 32-year-old fantasy superstar has shown zero signs of slowing down as a consistent all-around contributor.
