Oakland A’s DFS SPIN
Tony Kemp went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Wednesday’s win over the Rangers. Kemp had one of the key hits of the contest, cracking a two-run homer off Dennis Santana in the top of the sixth inning to pull the A’s to within 7-6 on the scoreboard. They would later capitalize with the tying and go-ahead runs in the ninth inning, finishing out with an 8-7 win. For the campaign as a whole, now, Kemp is slashing still-pedestrian .235/.311/.332 with six homers, 40 RBI and eight steals across 444 at-bats. He has connected for home runs in back-to-back games.
Houston Astros DFS SPIN
Kyle Tucker popped his 27th home run of the season Wednesday in Detroit. Tucker lofted one down the right-field line and over the wall in the fourth inning off of Joey Wentz. It was his 10th home run this season off a lefty. Tucker is now three dingers shy of a second straight 30-homer season.
