Seattle Mariners DFS SPIN
Kyle Seager launched a two-run homer and also stole a base on Saturday in the Mariners’ loss to the Yankees. Seager connected on a hanging curveball from lefty Andrew Heaney, lifting a 343-foot Yankee Stadium special to right field in the opening frame. The 33-year-old veteran’s 23 round-trippers are the second-most of any third baseman in baseball, trailing only Red Sox slugger Rafael Devers (27), in that department this season. He’s gone deep a whopping eight times in 21 games since the All-Star break.

Judge cut the Yankees’ early deficit in half with a solo shot to left field off righty Chris Flexen in the opening frame. It was his 23rd long ball of the season. He also doubled with two outs in the fifth inning. The 29-year-old superstar outfielder is hitting .279/.367/.511 with 56 runs scored, 23 homers, 52 RBI and two steals across 411 plate appearances this season.
