The Reds probably can’t release Candelario when he’s not even halfway through his three-year, $45 million contract, but he was bad last year and he’s been considerably worse while opening this season 9-for-80 with 29 strikeouts. He might lose even more playing time when Tyler Stephenson is activated, since Stephenson will likely DH at least once or twice per week.

Marte put Cincinnati ahead for good with a 101-mph triple into the left-center field gap that brought Gavin Lux around to score all the way from first base. The 23-year-old former top prospect appears to be putting together a legitimate breakthrough campaign this season, hitting .370 (17-for-46) with three homers, 16 RBI and four steals in 13 games since returning to the majors back in mid-April. He’s worthy of a roster spot in all fantasy formats as a five-category impact contributor. He’s showing exactly why he was such a highly-touted prospect prior to last year’s suspension and struggles upon returning from the extended layoff.

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.

Arenado was responsible for the Cardinals’ lone run of the contest when he lifted a run-scoring double off the left-field wall in the opening frame. The 34-year-old third baseman’s long-term future remains up in the air since it remains a realistic possibility he’s moved to a contender in the coming months. He’s off to a decent start this season, batting .255 with three homers, 13 RBI and one steal through 27 games.

Vientos’s homer came on a 65-mph fastball from Amed Rosario in the ninth. Mets fans were actually rooting against it, since it denied Brandon Nimmo the chance of coming up with multiple men on base to add to his total of nine RBI. It was Vientos’s third homer in 109 plate appearances this season. His numbers are on the way up — he’s hitting .320 in his last 13 games — but he’s still not really crushing the ball, at least against actual major league pitchers, like he did last year.

Jung is back at third base and batting sixth for Monday’s series opener at Globe Life Field following an early exit from Sunday’s showdown against the Giants with a right finger laceration. The fact that he’s already back in the lineup seems to indicate that the Rangers aren’t too concerned, which has to give fantasy managers confidence ahead of weekly lineup locks.
