NFL DFS WR Coach
Player News
Giants placed C Patrick Bailey on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to June 8, with a neck strain.
Eugenio Suárez went 3-for-4 and hit a grand slam for his 19th homer as the Diamondbacks defeated the Mariners 5-2 on Wednesday.
Suárez went 6 1/2 seasons in between grand slams before breaking the drought last August. He wound up hitting two in 10 days then, and now he has three in just eight at-bats with the bases loaded this season. He also singled twice today for his third three-hit game of the year.
Eduardo Rodriguez held the Mariners to two runs in 6 1/3 innings for a win Wednesday.
He allowed six hits, walked one and struck out five. Rodriguez has been effective in both starts since returning from shoulder inflammation, though not in a way that inspires a ton of confidence. It’s best to leave him in the free agent pool ahead of his next start against the Blue Jays.
Shelby Miller struck out two in a scoreless ninth for a save Wednesday versus the Mariners.
With Justin MartÃnez back on the injured list, Miller figures to get most of the save chances in Arizona. Maybe Kevin Ginkel could overtake him at some point, but he definitely has a lot of work to do first.
Bryan Woo gave up five runs in six innings Wednesday in a loss to the Diamondbacks.
Woo lacked his usual swing-and-miss ability today and wound up with just three strikeouts. He’s surrendered 12 runs over 18 2/3 innings and posted a 17% strikeout rate in his last three starts. In his first 10 outings this year, he had a 2.69 ERA and a 24% strikeout rate. His velocity is fine, but it seems like something might be off with his slider. His next start is due to come at home against the Red Sox.
Donovan Solano went 2-for-4 and hit his first homer of the year Wednesday against the Diamondbacks.
Solano was a surprisingly easy out for the first two months of the season, but he’s managed to 8-for-22 with four RBI in his last nine appearances. It’s raised his OPS from .331 to .490. Strictly a platoon player right now, Solano would need to keep this up for a while to have much chance of starting against righties.
