Pasquantino went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's win over the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

Pasquantino has mostly struggled to begin the season, but he's now belted a homer in two of his past four outings. Over 99 at-bats in April, the first baseman hit just .172 with three long balls, two doubles, 14 RBI and eight runs scored. Despite the slow start, Pasquantino continues to regularly occupy a premium spot in Kansas City's batting order, which should offer him plenty of RBI chances.

Bednar came away with the save in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Cubs, allowing one hit while striking out one in a scoreless ninth inning without issuing a walk.

EDGE Analysis

Bednar got the call to come in for the ninth inning, tasked with preserving a one-run lead. He yielded a single after getting the first two batters out, but Bednar ended things with a three-pitch punchout of Jon Berti. Since being recalled by the Pirates on April 19, Bednar has posted a 1.50 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, two saves and eight strikeouts over six innings. He appears to have reclaimed his spot as the Pirates' closer while Dennis Santana (personal) serves as the setup man.

Schwarber went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run and a walk in Wednesday's win over the Nationals.

EDGE Analysis

Schwarber has now homered in back-to-back contests, racking up five RBI during this span. The star slugger has also recorded an extra-base hit in three of his past four outings. Despite not having a multi-hit game in his last 11 contests, Schwarber extended his on-base streak to 30 games to open the season.

Dollander's hand issue on Wednesday afternoon was a broken finger nail on the middle finger of his pitching hand, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post clarified on The High Stakes Fantasy show with Tom Kessenich and Jeff Erickson on SiriusXM Fantasy Radio on Wednesday night.

EDGE Analysis

Dollander was pitching a gem against Atlanta but the broken finger nail left his hand "... a bloody mess ...." Dollander remains tentatively lined up to face the Tigers on Tuesday next week.

Manager Carlos Mendoza said Wednesday that Young may need to undergo Tommy John surgery, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Young landed on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due to a sprained left elbow, but he now may be at risk of missing the rest of the season plus a significant portion of the 2026 campaign. The Mets will know more about how to properly handle the southpaw's injury within the next few days, but he's likely facing an extended absence even if he doesn't undergo surgery.

McCutchen went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run double in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

McCutchen put the Pirates up for good in the seventh inning, when his double to center field off Brad Keller plated Isiah Kiner-Falefa and Bryan Reynolds. McCutchen has logged at least one hit in nine of his last 10 games, and over that span he has gone 13-for-40 (.325) with one stolen base, five runs scored, two home runs and seven RBI.

Urias went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Urias gave the Orioles a one-run lead in the second inning when he took Carlos Carrasco deep to left-center field for a solo homer. It was Urias' multi-hit game and second home run of the season (both coming in his last six games). He's started the season slashing .292/.354/.403 with five runs scored and nine RBI over 82 plate appearances.

Lowe went 1-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a walk in Wednesday's loss to the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Wednesday extended Lowe's extra-base hit streak to a modest three games, and it comes after the veteran slugger had gone just 1-for-19 in his previous five outings. Lowe entered the day with a poor 30.3 percent strikeout rate in 2025, but he's still slashing a solid .248/.325/.460 with six home runs, six doubles, 24 RBI and one stolen base over 126 plate appearances (31 games) this season. The first baseman should remain a strong source of power for fantasy managers going forward.

Mountcastle went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Yankees.

EDGE Analysis

Mountcastle, who went 0-for-18 over his six prior games, squared things up at two runs apiece in the second inning, when he took Carlos Carrasco deep to left field for a two-run homer. It was Mountcastle's second home run of the season and he's started the year with a career-low .546 OPS, but perhaps his efforts Wednesday is a sign of things to come for the 28-year-old first baseman.

Halvorsen struck out two in a perfect eighth inning Wednesday to record his first hold of the season in a 2-1 win over Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old righty hasn't notched a save since March 29, blowing his only other chance April 22, and the Rockies elected to use Halvorsen in a setup role Wednesday while letting Zach Agnos handle the ninth and pick up his first career save. Halvorsen did face Atlanta's 9-1-2 hitters, striking out Eddie Rosario and Austin Riley, so it was still a very high-leverage spot. Tyler Kinley, who hasn't pitched since Saturday, also figures to be in the closer mix for Colorado, but the team's 5-25 record hasn't provided many opportunities for manager Bud Black to reveal his tendencies with his current bullpen. On the season, Halvorsen has a 4.26 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 11:6 K:BB through 12.2 innings.
