Tampa Bay Rays DFS SPIN
Tyler Glasnow (oblique) looked sharp in Tuesday’s minor league rehab start at Triple-A Durham, piling up nine strikeouts over four shutout innings. The right-hander scattered three hits and one walk on the night. He threw 57 pitches in the contest — 40 of those for strikes. He’s expected to make just one more rehab start at the Triple-A level before being cleared to rejoin the Rays’ rotation before the end of May.
Detroit Tigers DFS SPIN
Riley Greene went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Detroit’s 4-0 win over Pittsburgh. He scored the game’s first run after doubling off Luis Ortiz, and had three batted balls with at least a 106.5 exit velocity — though one of them was an inning-ending double play ball. Greene is now hitting .383/.413/.533 in his last three games, and though he’s not adding much in the homer or stolen base column this season, he’s at least erased his rough April with this stretch.
