New York Yankees DFS SPIN
Willie Calhoun went 1-for-3 and drove in a run on Friday night as the Yankees fell to the Rangers in Arlington. Calhoun — who batted cleanup in a watered-down Yankees’ lineup — delivered a sacrifice fly in the sixth inning that pulled the Yankees to within three runs at 5-2. That would be as close as they would get. The 28-year-old is now hitting .235/.270/.265 with three RBI in 37 plate appearances at the big league level this season.
Texas Rangers DFS SPIN
Robbie Grossman homered, doubled twice and drove in two runs on Friday, powering the Rangers to a 5-2 victory over the visiting Yankees. Grossman doubled in the second inning then raced around to score on an RBI double off the bat of Marcus Semien. He then clobbered his 369-foot two-run blast off of Clarke Schmidt in the third inning — extending the Rangers’ advantage to 5-0. He finished the night 3-for-4 and is now hitting .246/.316/.420 with three long balls and 13 RBI on the season.
