Kansas City Royals DFS SPIN
Vinnie Pasquantino went 2-for-3 with a double and scored the Royals’ lone run in Sunday’s loss to the Giants. The 25-year-old slugger smacked a two-out double off of Anthony DeSclafani in the fourth inning then dashed around to score the game’s first run on an RBI single off the bat of Salvador Perez. With the two-hit effort, Pasquantino is now slashing .258/.361/.452 with one homer and three RBI on the season.
Texas Rangers DFS SPIN
Bubba Thompson tripled, doubled and knocked in two runs Sunday against the Cubs. This might have been one game for all of the marbles for Thompson and Travis Jankowski. The marbles, in this case, being a roster spot. Neither reserve had started all week, but both played today. Jankowski also had a nice game, collecting a double, a walk and a steal. One is likely to go when Leody Taveras comes off the IL.
