Tampa Bay Rays DFS SPIN
Jose Siri hit a two-run homer in the eighth inning Wednesday to propel the Rays past the Cubs in a 4-3 game. Brandon Lowe hits the Rays’ first two-run homer, tying the game in the seventh. The Cubs then scored in the bottom of the inning to regain the lead, but Siri turned it back around in the eighth and it proved to be the end of the scoring for the day. Siri is hitting .245/.299/.585 with 10 homers in 118 plate appearances. That’s three more homers than he had in 325 plate appearances last season.
Boston Red Sox DFS SPIN
Rafael Devers went 2-for-3 with a run scored and an RBI in Boston’s 8-2 win over the Reds. One of Devers’ doubles was a pop-fly to left field that was lost in the lights, but he also added a legitimate go-ahead smash to center field to put the Red Sox up 3-2. Unfortunately he was tagged out at home on a contact play before he could score a second run. Devers is off to a rough start on balls in play, hitting .252/.296/.510 despite his expected batting average dropping just three points this season, but his 13 homers and 48 RBI are keeping him in the inner circle of fantasy third basemen.
