Los Angeles Angels Fantasy Spin
David Fletcher went 2-for-4 with a pair of singles as the Angels were shut out by Gerrit Cole and the Astros on Saturday. Fletcher single-handedly tallied half of his team's four total hits in the contest -- with Mike Trout and Shohei Ohtani each collecting one. He has done a nice job as a table-setter atop the Halos' lineup this year, slashing .290/.353/.399 with five homers, 30 RBI and five stolen bases.
Houston Astros Fantasy Spin
Yordan Alvarez went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI on Saturday, helping to lead the Astros to victory over the Angels. Alvarez plated the final run of the ballgame with an RBI double in the seventh inning, increasing the Astros' edge to 4-0. While he has cooled off a bit since his ridiculous start, he's still slashing a blistering .324/.403/.721 with seven long balls and 22 RBI in his first 18 big league games.
