Javier Baez - 2B - Cubs

Javier Baez ended up going 4-for-6 with a double, two-run home run, two runs scored and four RBI in Friday's 16-5 rout of the Rockies in Coors Field.

Baez has 20 RBI through the team's first 17 games. He is the first Cubs player to post 20 or more RBI through the team's first 17 games of a season since Billy Williams (25) in 1970. He has posted 16 RBI over the past eight outings. He'll try to keep up the good work on Saturday against Tyler Anderson (0-0, 4.74 ERA).

Mitch Haniger - OF - Mariners

Mitch Haniger went 3-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in a win over the Rangers on Friday.

He tied up the game with a solo dinger off reliever Chris Martin in the eighth inning. The young outfielder now owns a .290 batting average with five home runs and 17 RBI on the season. Only Jed Lowrie, Bryce Harper and Preston Tucker have more RBI.
Apr 21 - 12:44 AM
Felix Hernandez - S - Mariners

Felix Hernandez turned in 5 1/3 innings while allowing two runs in a no-decision versus the Rangers on Friday.

He sailed through the first five frames unscathed before faltering in the sixth. He allowed two runs in that inning on a double, a single and hit batsman before being relieved. Hernandez allowed four hits total and two walks while striking out five in his day's work. He is 2-2 with a 5.06 ERA through five starts.
Apr 21 - 12:40 AM
Albert Almora - OF - Cubs

Albert Almora finished 4-for-6 with a double, an RBI and four runs scored in Friday's 16-5 win at Colorado.

The four-hit night was the first of Almora's career, and he is now slashing an impressive .325/.372/.525. He is 9-for-18 (.500) with nine runs scored, two doubles and a home run with three RBI over his past six outings. Almora doesn't start regularly, so fantasy owners in mixed play will want to be careful, but he could start playing a lot more frequently if he keeps hitting this well.

Nomar Mazara - OF - Rangers

Nomar Mazara went 1-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored in Friday's loss to the Mariners.

He plated Shin-Soo Choo with a single in the sixth inning, then scored on a Ronald Guzman fielder's choice grounder. Mazara has a .301 batting average but hasn't found his power stroke yet. Just three of his 22 hits have gone for extra bases.
Apr 21 - 12:35 AM
Keone Kela - R - Rangers

Keone Kela coughed up three runs in the ninth inning to take a loss against the Mariners on Friday.

He came in to pitch the ninth inning of a tie game. The only out he got came on a sacrifice bunt. The other three batters he faced all got hits, including a double by Jean Segura that brought home the winning runs. The bad outing likely won't cost Kela his job as closer because these were the first runs he's allowed this year. He is 2-1 with two saves and a 4.76 ERA in 5 2/3 innings.
Apr 21 - 12:32 AM
Kyle Hendricks - S - Cubs

Kyle Hendricks allowed three earned runs, five hits and no walks with six strikeouts over five innings in a win at Colorado on Friday.

Hendricks threw just 57 of his 95 pitches for strikes, and he hit one batter with a pitch. However, it was good enough to qualify for his first victory of 2018, helped out by plenty of run support. He'll look to piece together a win streak when he toes the slab at Wrigley Field on Thursday against the Brewers. He was 1-1 with a 4.18 ERA with 26 strikeouts over 28 innings in five outings against Milwaukee in 2017.
Apr 21 - 12:31 AM
Orlando Arcia - SS - Brewers

Brewers' manager Craig Counsell announced late Friday that X-rays came back negative on the injured ankle of Orlando Arcia.

Arcia rolled his ankle while trying to get back to first base during the eighth inning of Friday's game against the Marlins. It sounds like he was able to avoid any significant injury and should return to the lineup in a day or two.
