Toronto Blue Jays DFS SPIN
Whit Merrifield finished 4-for-4 with a two-run homer versus the Rays on Monday. He also threw out Wander Franco at home while playing center field tonight. Merrifield has seven hits in three games against his former team. He came into this one batting just .211/.263/.282 in May, though he’s been running wild. Alas, he didn’t steal any bases tonight, leaving him with 13 in 14 attempts on the season.
Tampa Bay Rays DFS SPIN
Jose Siri hit his third homer in five games Monday against the Blue Jays. It was a two-run homer against Chris Bassitt. Siri has five homers and three steals this month. Hitting for average isn’t going to be a thing for him, but he’s definitely making harder contact this year when he connects.
