J. Sheffield - SP

SEA

Justus Sheffield struggled in Monday's loss to the Athletics, allowing four runs on four hits over 4 2/3 frames.

On the plus side, Sheffield punched out five on the night while issuing two free passes. He kept the A's off the board through the first four innings, but all hell broke loose in the fifth. There, the A's loaded the bases with a walk and a pair of singles, then Ramon Laureano delivered a two-run single to chase Sheffield from the game. The two inherited runners he left ultimately scored as well in an eight-run innings for the A's. He'll try to put this one behind him and work on improving his 9.39 ERA when he takes on the Rockies at home on Saturday.

Added 12:46 am (EST)

N/A

K. Yates - RP

Kirby Yates surrendered a solo homer to Cody Bellinger in the ninth inning on Monday, but managed to escape with his first save of the season.

Yates came on to protect a two-run lead in the ninth inning and made things interesting by allowing a leadoff homer to Bellinger. The veteran right-hander battled back nicely though, striking out A.J. Pollock, Corey Seager and Chris Taylor in succession to end the ballgame. He still owns a miserable 13.50 ERA and 3.00 WHIP on the season, but it looks like he's going to continue to get the save chances while Drew Pomeranz works in the eighth inning.

Added 12:40 am (EST)

N/A

C. Bellinger - CF

Cody Bellinger smacked a solo home run off of Kirby Yates on Monday, but it wasn't enough to lead the Dodgers past the Padres.

Bellinger opened the ninth inning with a solo blast off of the Padres' closer, trimming their deficit to one run -- but that would be as close as they would get. It was his only hit in four at-bats in the ballgame. The reigning National League MVP is off to a very slow start at the dish this season, slashing .159/.213/.318 with a pair of homers and five RBI.

Added 12:36 am (EST)

N/A

W. Buehler - SP

Walker Buehler wasn't at his best in a no-decision against the Padres on Monday, allowing three runs on three hits over his five innings of work.

The right-hander struck out three and walked three on the night. All of the damage done against him came via the long ball -- serving up solo shots to Trent Grisham, Wil Myers and Fernando Tatis Jr. Buehler wound up throwing 79 pitches in the game, 43 of them for strikes. He'll look to improve upon his 5.19 ERA and 1.15 WHIP when he takes on the Giants at home on Sunday.

Added 12:31 am (EST)

N/A

N. Arenado - 3B

COL

Nolan Arenado blasted his first home run of the 2020 season on Monday as the Rockies topped the Giants 7-6.

Arenado smacked a solo homer in the sixth inning to pull the Rockies to within a run at 4-3. He also drew a walk in the ballgame, finishing the night 1-for-3 officially. He's off to a slow start offensively this season, slashing .235/.308/.324 with one long ball and three RBI -- but by season's end he should wind up among the league leaders in home runs and RBI in the National League once again.

Added 12:23 am (EST)

N/A

J. Díaz - RP

COL

Jairo Diaz worked a disastrous ninth inning against the Giants on Monday, but managed to escape with his second save of the season.

Diaz took the ball with a three-run lead to protect in the ninth, but things quickly got interesting as Wilmer Flores greeted him with a leadoff double and Brandon Crawford followed with a single. A Chadwick Tromp sacrifice fly forced a run in -- then a second run scored as Pablo Sandoval reached on an error. Diaz dug deep though, retiring Mike Yastrzemski and Alex Dickerson to preserve the one-run victory. He's locked into the closer's role while Wade Davis is sidelined and should be owned in all mixed leagues at this point.

Added 12:15 am (EST)

N/A

J. Cueto - SP

Johnny Cueto pitched well in a no-decision against the Rockies on Monday, allowing three runs (two earned) on five hits over his five-plus innings of work.

The right-hander struck out four and walked two on the night. Cueto allowed an RBI single to Daniel Murphy in the opening inning, then the Rockies didn't score again until Nolan Arenado's two-run blast in the sixth. Through three starts, he owns a 4.97 ERA and 1.58 WHIP. Though he's leaving Coors Field, the next assignment doesn't get much easier as Cueto will have to do battle against the Dodgers on Saturday.

Added 12:14 am (EST)

N/A

Y. Moncada - 3B

CWS

Yoan Moncada went 3-for-5 with a homer and a double to lead the White Sox to a 6-4 win in Milwaukee on Monday.

Moncada's status for Opening Day was initially in question because of his COVID-19 diagnosis, but he's started nine of 10 games to date and hit .351 with two homers, two doubles and six walks in 43 plate appearances. He definitely has the potential to remain one of the AL's top performers the rest of the way.
