Texas Rangers DFS SPIN
Marcus Semien went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk Sunday as the Rangers lost to the Mariners. Semien turned on a 3-0 fastball from Chris Flexen and hit a 104.4-mph, 418-foot solo home run to left field in the bottom of the third. All 13 of his home runs have come since May 28th.
Miami Marlins DFS SPIN
Pablo López will start Thursday’s second half opener for the Marlins against the Rangers. Marlins skipper Don Mattingly hasn’t announced the rest of his second half rotation just yet. The 26-year-old right-hander had a terrific first half, going 6-4 with a 2.86 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 101/32 K/BB ratio across 104 innings in 18 starts. The Marlins have an important couple of weeks coming up in advance of the trade deadline, as they sit just 5 1/2 games out of the final wild card spot entering play on Thursday.
