Cincinnati Reds DFS SPIN
Jonathan India went 3-for-6 with two homers and three RBI on Tuesday, powering the Reds to an 8-4 win over the Nationals. India supplied the Independence Day fireworks in this one, crushing a third-inning homer off southpaw Patrick Corbin and also added a sixth-inning blast off reliever Cory Abbott to record his third career multi-homer performance. He also added an RBI single in this one, just for good measure. The 26-year-old second baseman has gone deep three times in his last four contests and is up to 13 round-trippers on the year.
Washington Nationals DFS SPIN
Jeimer Candelario blasted a solo homer on Monday in the Nationals’ loss to the Reds. Candelario took righty Luke Weaver deep in the fourth inning for his 12th big fly of the season. The 29-year-old corner infielder has enjoyed an unexpected resurgence this season in his Nationals debut, posting a robust – triple-slash line across – plate appearances through 80 games. He’s on pace to easily eclipse his previous career-high mark of 19 homers, which he set back in 2018 with the Tigers.
