The 23-year-old blasted five homers and swiped four bases within his first 30 plate appearances on the season, but since then he’s slashing a pitiful .111/.179/.139 with an 18/1 K/BB ratio over 40 plate appearances. A day off to clear his head will hopefully do him some good. Tim Anderson will start in his place at second base and bat ninth for the Halos against Twins’ right-hander Pablo Lopez.

It was one run through five, but the sixth began with a single, an error and an RBI double, at which point Soriano was lifted. Both inherited runners later came around to score off Brock Burke. Soriano is a big-time talent with his high-90s heat and ability to generate grounders, but in such a bad situation in Anaheim, mixed-league value is going to be tough to come by. He’ll face the Tigers next.

It’s the eighth straight hitless start for Paris, who is 0-for-24 with 14 strikeouts and no walks during the span. He was so good before the slump that he has still has an .823 OPS, which is 168 points better than the Angels’ team mark. Given that the primary alternative at second base is Tim Anderson, it can’t fathomably hurt the team to stick with Paris for now; he’ll likely continue having issues hitting for average, but that power outburst couldn’t have been a complete fluke. Mixed leaguers, on the other hand, can move on.

It’s an encouraging sign that Schanuel hasn’t been put on the injured list yet, but that could still happen prior to first pitch of Sunday’s series finale at Target Field. It’ll be veteran J.D. Davis at first base in his absence. The 23-year-old first baseman has been diagnosed with a contusion after additional imaging didn’t reveal any fractures after fouling a ball off his right knee during Saturday’s showdown. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for the moment.

Edman came up big for the Dodgers with a two-run single in the bottom of the 10th that turned a 6-5 deficit into a victory. Edman has now driven in 21 runs in 28 games, and that hit sees him slashing .248/.288/.514 on the young campaign. Edman’s average leaves much to be desire, but he’s made up for it with the power and run production.

McLain snapped an 0-for-21 hitless streak with a seventh-inning single and immediately swiped second base for his fourth theft of the season. The 25-year-old speedster has gotten off to an ice-cold start this season, hitting .162 (12-for-74) with four homers and four steals through 20 games. We’re anticipating he’ll turn things around soon simply because he’s way too talented to continue struggling for much longer.

The triple should have been a single, but Alex Call made a flailing dive at it and watched it roll by him. McNeil’s homer was more impressive, traveling a projected 420 feet to right-center. Barring a correction, that’s the farthest he’s hit a ball since 2019. He topped out at 402 feet last year and 400 feet in 2023.
