Bolte went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Brewers.

It took 25 games, but Bolte now has the first homer of his career. He went deep in the second inning off Milwaukee starter Robert Gasser. Bolte has maintained a steady bat in June, going 8-for-26 (.308) this month, albeit with a 1:14 BB:K. The outfielder is hitting .295 with a .756 OPS, seven RBI, seven runs scored, four stolen bases and four doubles through his first 89 plate appearances. Bolte carries a .440 BABIP and a 31.5 percent strikeout rate, both of which are indicators of regression, as the swing-and-miss problem will be more apparent if his hitting luck dries up.

Soderstrom went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Brewers.

Soderstrom has hit safely in 13 of his last 15 games, going 20-for-50 (.400) with six homers and 13 RBI in that span. He also has a 12:6 BB:K during the stretch, showcasing his improved plate discipline for the year. Overall, the outfielder is still batting just .238, but he has an .804 OPS, 11 homers, 36 RBI, 30 runs scored, one stolen base, 17 doubles and two triples through 64 contests.

Meckler went 1-for-2 with a double, three walks, three runs and two RBI in a 10-1 win over the Astros on Tuesday.

Meckler continued what has been an excellent start to his tenure with the Angels, reaching base in four plate appearances for the second time over his past seven games. The 26-year-old registered one of his team's two extra-base hits with a double and crossed the plate three times. Meckler has started each of the Angels' past seven games and has taken over as the team's primary left fielder. He's slashing an impressive .340/.417/.547 with two homers, 10 runs, 12 RBI, two stolen bases and a 7:10 BB:K through 60 plate appearances.

Jones went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's 3-2 win against Cleveland.

Jones launched a 443-foot two-run shot off Slade Cecconi in the second inning that opened the scoring. It was his first career MLB homer, and it looked like anything but a young player finding his footing. After he hit .167 in 10 games before he was sent back down, he's now hitting .500 across four games since being recalled. The strikeout rate has been a well-documented concern -- he's posted a 32.4 percent strikeout rate at Triple-A this season -- so the plate discipline bears watching, but with how banged up New York's outfield is at the moment, Jones should see playing time for the foreseeable future.

Greene went 1-for-3 with a walk, a home run, an additional run scored and two total RBI in Tuesday's 10-4 win over the Twins.

Greene ended a mini 0-for-7 slump over his previous two games with his seventh home run of the season in an easy Detroit win. The star outfielder is batting .316 over his last 10 contests with three long balls, five runs scored and six RBI. It looks like Greene is hitting his stride as he continues to drive the offense for the Tigers, and he remains a top-flight fantasy option.

Caglianone went 3-for-3 with two home runs, a walk and three total RBI in a 5-3 win against Texas on Tuesday.

The Rangers were unable to retire Caglianone in the contest, as he reached base in all four of his plate appearances. The 23-year-old's two long balls combined to travel a whopping 852 feet, and the two-homer game was his second as a big leaguer. Caglianone has begun June on a roll, batting .476 (10-for-21) with two homers, seven RBI, a stolen base and a 5:5 BB:K through seven games. With eight homers in 61 contests on the campaign, he's surpassed the seven home runs he slugged across 62 games as a rookie last year.

Sanchez went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and a double during Tuesday's 3-2 win over Philadelphia.

The Blue Jays were kept off the board through the first five innings, but Sanchez changed that with a solo blast off Zack Wheeler in the sixth to tie the game at 1-1. Sanchez tied a season high with three knocks, and Tuesday marked his 12th multi-hit game of the season. Three of those multi-hit games have come over his last five outings, a span in which he has gone 8-for-17 with three extra-base hits and three runs scored.

Isbel was removed from Tuesday's game against the Rangers due to plantar fasciitis in his left foot.

Isbel had gone 1-for-2 with a walk before his foot forced him out of the game in the seventh inning. His injury could require him to spend time on the injured list, though the club hasn't confirmed anything just yet. Lane Thomas and Tyler Tolbert would be next in line to pick up starts in center field during any games Isbel has to miss.

Vilade went 3-for-4 with a double and a run scored during the Rays' 4-3 win over the Red Sox on Tuesday.

Vilade crossed home in the fourth inning on an RBI single from Cedric Mullins, the first run for the Rays in Tuesday's win. It was the seventh multi-hit game of the season for Vilade, two of which have come over his last four games. He's in the midst of a six-game hitting streak, and over that span he has gone 9-for-21 (.429) with a steal, five RBI and three extra-base hits.

Trammell is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Angels.

Trammel went 0-for-2 with in the series opener Monday versus the Angels. As he sits Tuesday, Joey Loperfido will start in left field and bat seventh.
