Chicago White Sox Fantasy Spin
Tim Anderson went 3-for-3 with a double and a run scored as the White Sox were throttled by the Twins on Friday night. Anderson doubled and came around to score on an RBI single by Yonder Alonso during a four-run rally in the second inning, but that would be the extent of the White Sox’ offense in the game. The 25-year-old just continues to produce phenomenal numbers across the board on offense, slashing .337/.369/.506 with eight homers, 25 RBI and 13 stolen bases.
Minnesota Twins Fantasy Spin
Miguel Sano blasted his fifth home run of the season as the Twins routed the White Sox on Friday night in Minneapolis. Sano crushed his go-ahead solo shot off of Reynaldo Lopez in the third inning, giving the Twins’ a lead they wouldn’t relinquish. He also drew a pair of walks in the ballgame, finishing the night 1-for-3 with three runs scored. The 26-year-old is now hitting .250/.333/.857 with five homers and nine RBI in his first seven games.
