Tampa Bay Rays DFS SPIN
Brandon Lowe went 0-for-4 with a walk on Monday in his return to the Rays’ lineup. Lowe has been struggling at the dish recently and that trend continued in his return on Monday evening against the Yankees following a two-game absence due to a right shoulder issue.
New York Yankees DFS SPIN
Aaron Hicks went 0-for-3, grounded into a double play and misplayed a ball in center field Monday in the loss to the Rays. Hicks got turned around a couple of times on David Peralta’s drive to deep center in the fourth, and the end result was a triple. Peralta then came around to score the only run off Gerrit Cole in six innings. Hicks did solid work in June and July, but he’s in a 5-for-53 slump in the moment. During that span, he’s failed to collect a single extra-base hit and has grounded into four double plays. He’s likely to lose playing time after Giancarlo Stanton is activated, and he could find himself out of the mix entirely if Harrison Bader makes it back.
