Hayes’ revamped swing, designed to take some pressure off his troublesome back, is producing quite a bit of hard contact; he has a 52% hard-hit rate and he’s doing a better job of getting the ball into the air than usual. That he’s also attempting some steals (3-for-3 so far) makes him of some interest in shallow leagues. There are certainly worse stopgaps out there.

Hayes is now up to .254/.311/.311 on the season while hitting in the middle of the order for the Pirates almost every day. There has been no power to speak of, but he does continue to try and run ,which can help him create some fantasy value in deeper formats.

After a hot start to the season, Heaney has now allowed eight runs on 13 hits in his last 8 1/3 innings against the Padres and Cubs. Heaney was likely always just a streamer for fantasy purposes, even with his slight pitch mix changes. Things don’t get any easier next week against the Braves, and he can be dropped in most formats.

Santana rejoins Pittsburgh’s high-leverage mix ahead of Sunday’s series finale against the Padres. The 29-year-old journeyman has recorded three saves this season to accompany a strong 1.46 ERA across 12 1/3 innings (13 appearances).

The 28-year-old slugger opened the scoring in the ballgame with a 426-foot (108.5 mph EV) two-run shot off of Dustin May in the home half of the first inning. He then repeated the exercise in the third inning with a 416-foot (108.0 mph EV) two-run bomb that increased the Braves’ lead to 4-0. That would be all of the support that Bryce Elder and company would require. Riley finished the night 2-for-4 and is now hitting .292/.336/.511 with eight long balls and 24 RBI on the young season.

Muncy got the Dodgers on the board in the fourth inning with an RBI double off of Bryce Elder that plated Teoscar Hernandez from first base. He also drove in a run with a ground ball in the sixth inning that trimmed their deficit to two runs at 4-2. The 34-year-old slugger is slashing a disappointing .186/.311/.294 with just one home run and seven RBI on the season.

The triple on a grounder down the first-base line was the only extra-base hit either team had today. After a nice start, Smith had slumped the last couple of weeks, but he still seems locked into regular at-bats for the foreseeable future. He’s back up to .311/.386/.478 after this.
