Chicago Cubs DFS SPIN
Seiya Suzuki went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer and three RBI on Tuesday in the Cubs’ loss to the Rockies. Suzuki put together a monster effort at the dish in Coors Field’s high-octane offensive environment, but it wasn’t enough to propel the Cubs past the Rockies. He opened the scoring with a second-inning RBI single off Rockies starter Chris Flexen before taking reliever Jake Bird deep for a two-run blast — his 17th round-tripper of the season — in the sixth inning.
Colorado Rockies DFS SPIN
Kris Bryant went 2-for-4 with a solo homer and three RBI on Tuesday, leading the Rockies to a 6-4 victory over the Cubs. Bryant delivered a game-tying two-run single off Cubs starter Javier Assad in the fourth inning before walloping a go-ahead solo shot off reliever Daniel Palencia in the sixth inning. It was his ninth big fly of the season and first time he’s gone deep since returning from the injured list following a nearly two-month absence due to a fractured right index finger that put him on the shelf back in late July.
