Isaac Paredes

Mauricio Dubón delivered a game-winning hit in the 10th as the Astros edged the Twins 2-1 on Sunday.

Dubón’s shot to the wall in left-center could have been caught by Willi Castro, but it went off his glove as he attempted a jumping catch. It went as a single, but it would have been a double and Dubón’s first extra-base hit in nearly three weeks under normal circumstances. Dubón is 2-for-26 as a part-timer this month, though he’s started three straight games with Isaac Paredes hurt.

Brandon Walter pitched 6 2/3 innings of one-run ball and struck out nine Sunday against the Twins.

Walter seemed legit while facing the Rays in his Astros debut last month, but the team sent him back down afterwards anyway. Getting another chance, he’s turned in back-to-back quality starts this month. Overall, he has a 1.53 ERA and a 19/1 K/BB in 17 2/3 innings. We’d consider taking a chance on him in mixed leagues, but it does hurt that the Astros are a week away from entering a tough stretch in the schedule; his next outing against the Angels isn’t bad, but after that, he’d face either the Phillies or Cubs and then probably get a start at Coors Field or in L.A. against the Dodgers.

Isaac Paredes (hamstring) remains out of the lineup for the third consecutive game on Sunday against the Twins.

The positive news for fantasy managers is that Paredes has managed to avoid a trip to the injured list after suffering a hamstring injury during Thursday’s showdown against the White Sox. The 26-year-old infielder figures to be ready to return to Houston’s lineup at some point during a four-game series against the Athletics, which kicks off on Monday night. It’ll be Luis Guillorme filling in at third base on Sunday afternoon in his absence.

Ernie Clement went 3-for-4 with two runs scored against the Phillies on Sunday.

Clement drew the start at shortstop on Sunday with Bo Bichette as the DH. The 29-year-old infielder had three singles and scored twice as the Blue Jays lost to the Phillies. Clement’s fantasy utility is strictly limited to AL-Only leagues and deeper mixed formats. He’s hitting .292 with a .742 OPS on the year.

Alec Bohm went 2-for-3 with two walks, two runs scored, a two-run home run and three RBI against the Blue Jays on Sunday.

Bohm’s home run was his seventh of the year. He hit a two-run shot off Jose Berrios in the fifth inning. Bohm hit third in the batting order Sunday with Bryce Harper (wrist) sidelined. As long as he continues to hit in the middle of the order, he should continue to post strong RBI totals.

Ryan McMahon went 1-for-5 with a solo home run against the Braves on Sunday.
