Winn has been playing possessed since he came off the injured list last week. This was his third multi-hit game in his last four contests and he has six extra-base hits in his last seven games. Funny enough, he didn’t have a single extra-base hit in his 13 games before heading to the IL. Also, he hit the hardest ball of his season in this game at 109 mph. If this power surge holds, it would dramatically raise Winn’s ceiling as an every day player who’s been moved to the two-hole in the Cardinals’ lineup.

Gray did not have his best stuff in this one. His usually reliable curveball was all over the place as Mets’ announcer Keith Hernandez eloquently described them as “helicopters” after he floated a handful in above the strike zone. He found a bit of a groove in the middle innings, but was chased in the fifth after the top of the Mets lineup laced four straight hits in their third time around the order. He’ll look to get back on track in his next scheduled start against the Nationals.

Contreras obliterated his home run at 110.2 mph and 421 feet. That was a nice welcome to the big leagues moment for Reds’ rookie starter Chase Petty. Overall, Contreras has done well to put an ugly start to the season behind him with an .824 OPS over his last 15 games and is currently riding a 13 game on-base streak. That is the Contreras we know and expected to see this season. It’s good to finally have him back.

Matz was impressive again working as a starter. He last started a game two weeks ago and similarly worked his way to around 70 pitches, then he hopped back in the bullpen for a couple appearances, and filled in nicely here when the Cardinals needed an extra starter for their double-header. He had great command of his changeup against a right-handed heavy Reds’ lineup and forced 12 total swings-and-misses. While he’s thrived in this swing-man role, he would become at least mildly interesting if he returned to the rotation full-time.

Neto gave the Angels a 1-0 lead with a solo shot to begin the first off Tarik Skubal. It was the last run Los Angeles would score. Neto has been solid since returning from the injured list with a .908 OPS and four homers in just 13 games.

Betts’ sixth inning blast was both the last run the Dodgers would score and the last one they would need as they clung to a 2-1 lead through the late innings and a lengthy rain delay. He turned on a fastball from Grant Holmes and now has eight hits and nine RBI over his last five games. This could be the beginning of a serious hot streak for Betts.

Swanson has really struggled out of the gate this season, so it was nice to see him finally hit the ball well. This was his first three-hit game on the campaign and it raised his batting average by nearly 20 points to finally climb back above the Mendoza Line. He still has plenty of work to do though as one of the more disappointing players in the league to this point.
