Perez hits two-run shot, steals base in loss
Wenceel Pérez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a stolen base in a loss to the Guardians on Tuesday. Pérez clobbered a 390-foot home run at 103.4 mph for his seventh home run of the season. It was also his fourth home run in 18 games in July, so the power is starting to come around a bit for the rookie, who also stole his ninth base of the season. He isn’t an electric fantasy asset, but he has a well-rounded game and plays every day for the Tigers, which makes him a solid add in deeper formats.
Kwan collects two hits, including solo home run
Steven Kwan went 2-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in a win over the Tigers on Tuesday. The Guardians’ leadoff hitter is having his best season yet, now up to 10 home runs on the year to go along with six steals, 57 runs, and a .347/.401/.507 slash line in 74 games. The Cleveland offense has slowed a bit of late, which has hurt Kwan’s run totals, but he remains a must-start option in all leagues as the team’s leadoff hitter with newfound double-digit power.
