Baltimore Orioles DFS SPIN
Terrin Vavra went 2-for-4 with a two-run triple on Thursday in the Orioles’ loss to the Red Sox. Vavra put the Orioles on the scoreboard with a two-run triple into the right-field corner against Red Sox starter Josh Winckowski in the sixth inning. The 25-year-old rookie infielder is hitting a blistering .370/.455/.481 over 33 plate appearances in 11 games since being called up back in late July. He’s worthy of a speculative roster spot for fantasy managers in deeper mixed leagues.
Tampa Bay Rays DFS SPIN
Colin Poche served up a game-tying home run in the ninth inning to take a blown save Wednesday in Milwaukee. Jason Adam, Pete Fairbanks and Brooks Raley each delivered scoreless frames in relief of Jeffrey Springs. Manager Kevin Cash then turned to Poche, who gave up a game-tying solo homer to the first batter he faced, Rowdy Tellez. The lefty was able to retire the next three batters, but the Rays eventually fell in the 10th. Poche had the Rays’ last save, but the two before that each went to different guys. He’ll continue to be in the closer-by-committee mix.
