Miami Marlins DFS SPIN
Miguel Rojas went 1-for-4 with a home run Sunday against the Mets. After the Mets took a one-run lead in the top of the third inning, Rojas answered back in the bottom of the frame, blasting a solo homer off David Peterson. The 33-year-old shortstop is batting .236/.28/.358 with six homers and four steals across 229 plate appearances.
St. Louis Cardinals DFS SPIN
Brendan Donovan homered, tripled and walked against the Cubs on Sunday. Donovan’s exit velocity numbers aren’t very impressive, but he’s had great success on balls in play and his 34/26 K/BB ratio in 197 plate appearances is very good. He’s now batting .315/.426/.448, and it’s going to be hard to get him out of the Cardinals’ lineup anytime soon.
