New York Yankees DFS SPIN
Giancarlo Stanton went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk in Friday’s commanding win over the Blue Jays. Anthony Rizzo was hit by a slider to open up the top of the fifth and Stanton drove him in on a two-run home run off of Trent Thornton. He’s now hitting .263 with 14 home runs through 186 at-bats.
Toronto Blue Jays DFS SPIN
Matt Chapman doubled and scored a run on Friday in his return to the Blue Jays’ lineup. Chapman doubled against Yankees’ lefty reliever Manny Bañuelos and came around to score on an RBI single from Gabriel Moreno in the seventh inning. It was his lone hit in four at-bats in the one-sided affair. The 29-year-old defensive wizard has missed a couple games over the last week due to a right wrist issue, but has managed to play through it and avoid a trip to the injured list.
