Stallings went 2-for-4 with a grand slam and a walk in Saturday's comeback victory over the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
With two out and the bases loaded in the ninth inning, Stallings got around on an inside Edwin Diaz offering and sent it into the left field bleachers to complete Pittsburgh's rally from a 6-0 deficit. It was Stallings' eighth homer of the year, extending his career high, and gave him 40 RBI, second on the team behind only Bryan Reynolds (52). Stallings is slashing .239/.325/.420 in 255 plate appearances, making him a viable starter in most fantasy formats.

The backstop sat out the first game of the twin bill before starting behind the plate in Game 2. He accounted for half of Pittsburgh's runs with a solo shot to left field in the sixth inning.

Stallings is not in the lineup for Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Mets.
EDGE Analysis
Having not played since Wednesday, Stallings figures to be well-rested and ready to catch Saturday's nightcap. Stallings was behind the plate for Max Kranick's perfect, albeit abbreviated start June 27, so he'll likely be in the lineup for the righty's second outing of 2021. Michael Perez is catching and batting seventh for the afternoon game.
