Boston Red Sox DFS SPIN
Connor Wong went 1-for-3 with a home run, two runs scored, and a walk against the Angels on Wednesday. Wong cross the plate for two of the Red Sox three runs on Wednesday. He took Reyes Moronta deep for a solo shot in the seventh inning, then drew a walk in the ninth before scoring on a base hit. The 27-year-old backstop is hitting .231/.286/.452 with five homers and a stolen base across 113 plate appearances.
Arizona Diamondbacks DFS SPIN
Evan Longoria hit a two-run homer Wednesday in a losing cause against the Phillies. With Emmanuel Rivera up, Longoria has gone from being the Diamondbacks’ third baseman against lefties to their DH against lefties. He probably still has a little more to offer than that, but he has struggled versus righties thus far and he’s gotten just one start against them this month.
