A. Senzatela - SP

COL

Antonio Senzatela was shelled for five runs (four earned) over 2 2/3 innings on Tuesday in a loss to the Dodgers.

Senzatela coughed up five hits, including three homers in this one. He's allowed an eye-popping 12 runs (11 earned) on 18 hits with a 7/5 K/BB ratio over 14 innings (three starts) this season. He's not a recommended fantasy option when he takes on the Mets at Coors Field on Sunday.

Added 1:24 am (EST)

N/A

T. Bauer - SP

Trevor Bauer recorded nine strikeouts over seven scoreless innings on Tuesday in a win over the Rockies.

Bauer scattered one hit and a pair of walks over seven stellar frames. He generated 16 swinging strikes and finished with a 35 percent CSW (called strikes plus whiffs). He'll carry a 2.70 ERA, 0.60 WHIP and 29/5 K/BB ratio over 20 innings (three starts) into a road tilt against the division-rival Padres on Sunday.

Added 1:23 am (EST)

N/A

M. Betts - RF

Mookie Betts slugged a solo homer against the Rockies on Tuesday in his return to the Dodgers' starting lineup.

Betts capped a seven-pitch battle with Rockies' starter Antonio Senzatela by clobbering a solo homer to left field in the third inning. It was his second round-tripper of the season. The 28-year-old superstar outfielder missed a full week due to lower back tightness, but appears to be fully recovered and back at full strength.

Added 1:22 am (EST)

N/A

M. Muncy - 1B

Max Muncy went 2-for-3 with a solo homer and an RBI double on Tuesday in the Dodgers' blowout win over the Rockies.

Muncy lined an RBI double to left field off Rockies' reliever Jhoulys Chacin in the fourth inning, and also launched a moonshot to right-center field against Robert Stephenson in the sixth inning to close out the Dodgers' offensive explosion. The 30-year-old first baseman has gotten off to a phenomenal start at the plate, hitting .400/.543/.686 with nine runs scored, five extra-base hits and seven RBI in 46 plate appearances.

Added 1:21 am (EST)

N/A

C. Seager - SS

Corey Seager went 2-for-3 with a solo homer and three runs scored on Tuesday, leading the Dodgers to a 7-0 victory over the Rockies.

Seager kicked off the scoring with a line-drive, opposite-field solo homer in the opening frame. He also doubled and scored a run in the third inning before drawing a walk and scoring in the fourth inning. The 26-year-old shortstop owns a robust .366/.469/.561 triple-slash line with six extra-base hits and eight RBI across 49 plate appearances.

Added 1:20 am (EST)

N/A

B. Nimmo - CF

NYM

Brandon Nimmo went 3-for-4, including two RBI singles, in the nightcap of Tuesday's doubleheader versus the Phillies.

Nimmo's first RBI single came in the fourth inning off an Aaron Nola changeup, scoring Kevin Pillar and Jonathan Villar. Nimmo then pulled the deja vu by driving in another RBI single in the sixth inning, this time off Spencer Howard. Nimmo has been scorching hot at the plate to begin the year, carrying a .436 average and 1.146 OPS over 31 plate appearances. The 28-year-old has reached base at least twice in all seven games played so far, awarding him with a shiny .581 OBP.

Added 1:18 am (EST)

N/A

A. Nola - SP

PHI

Aaron Nola gave up three runs off seven hits over five innings in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader versus the Mets.

The Mets' lineup worked Nola to his 92 pitches rather quickly, with plenty of full counts and lengthy at-bats. Nola did not have his best stuff in this one and now carries a middle-of-the-road 3.45 ERA over 15 2/3 total innings pitched on the season. He'll look to rebound next time out against the Giants.

Added 1:08 am (EST)

N/A

L. Castillo - SP

CIN

Luis Castillo recorded seven strikeouts over five innings on Tuesday in a no-decision against the Giants.

Castillo yielded four runs on seven hits, as all of the damage against him came as a result of the long ball. He served up a pair of two-run homers in the opening frame, but managed to keep the Giants off the scoreboard over the remainder of this one. He'll carry a bloated 7.04 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 12/3 K/BB ratio over 15 1/3 innings (three starts) into a home start against the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.
