Ahmed remains a certifiable defensive wizard, but he’s pretty much a non-factor from an offensive standpoint at this advanced stage of his career. The 35-year-old journeyman shortstop gets the call to the majors as an emergency stopgap for the Rangers with Corey Seager (hamstring) hitting the injured list.

After two days off for maintenance, Seager came out and hit a 403-foot homer off Jack Flaherty in his first at-bat tonight. He later added a 393-foot shot off Tyler Holton in the seventh. The load management is annoying, but it might pay off in the end if Seager can play in 130 games this year for the first time since 2022.

The runs scored on solo homers from Kerry Carpenter in the first and Riley Greene in the fourth. The other three hits deGrom allowed were singles, and he walked only one. He wound up with 21 whiffs, 11 on the 40 fastballs he threw and 10 on 41 sliders. It’s his first 10-strikeout game since Tommy John. He’s won three starts in a row to move to 3-1 with a 2.72 ERA, and he’ll face the Astros next.

It also doubled his RBI count of the year. Pederson had been showing signs of pulling out of his slump over the last 10-14 days. It might not happen all at once now, but he’s certainly worth considering in 12-team and deeper leagues and in all leagues that count OBP instead of average.

Swanson singled in a run in the first and delivered a solo shot off Tyler Megill in the fourth. It was his eighth homer of the year, putting him on pace to smash his 2024 total of 16 homers in 149 games. His .240 average and 48/13 K/BB ratio are mediocre, but as long as the power numbers hold up, he’s at least a fringy option in mixed leagues.

Holliday has looked the part as of late, and is hitting .384/.417/.682 in his six games in the month of May. Meanwhile, Cedric Mullins has gone just 1-for-26 over his last few contests, so he’ll be bumped down to sixth against the Halos on Saturday. Holliday is an intriguing fantasy option hitting lower because of his skill set, but there’s a lot more to like if he can hit at the top of this lineup.

Ashby is expected to return in a relief role for Milwaukee after getting a handful of appearances under his belt at the Triple-A level. The 26-year-old lefty is working his way back from a right oblique strain that he suffered back in spring training. He should be an option for the Brewers before the end of the month.
