Texas Rangers DFS SPIN
Rangers recalled C Sam Huff from Triple-A Round Rock. Huff figures to split the catching duties for the Rangers with established starter Jonah Heim over the final few weeks of the regular season. The 24-year-old backstop has gotten into just 30 games this season at the big-league level. He’s clobbered 21 homers in just 63 games this year at Triple-A Round Rock.
Houston Astros DFS SPIN
Martín Maldonado went 1-for-3 with an RBI on Monday in his return to the Astros’ lineup. Maldonado’s biggest contribution on Monday evening came by helping guide Astros top pitching prospect Hunter Brown through six shutout innings in his major-league debut. The 36-year-old veteran backstop is one of the most skilled defenders in the game and his presence makes a huge impact for Houston.
