Grant Balfour - R - Athletics

Grant Balfour converted his eighth save of the season with a scoreless ninth inning in Saturday's win over the Royals.

Balfour walked a batter but was otherwise unburdened. He entered this weekend with six saves but has picked up a pair in consecutive 2-1 wins against the Royals. The typically reliable Balfour is eight-for-eight in save conversions and holds a 1.56 ERA and 1.21 WHIP.

Brandon Moss - 1B - Athletics

Brandon Moss went 1-for-3 with a walk and a triple in Saturday's 2-1 victory over the Royals.

He also collected an RBI. Moss has just one multi-hit game since April 29. After a nice start to the year, Moss has lost his swing in May.
May 19 - 12:21 AM
Ervin Santana - S - Royals

Ervin Santana notched another quality start on Saturday but took the loss in Kansas City's 2-1 setback in Oakland.

Santana spun seven innings of two-run ball, striking out five and allowing four hits and three walks. He didn't surrender a home run, which has been perhaps the biggest reason he's turned around his career in Kansas City. After leading the league in long-balls allowed in 2012 with 39, Santana has given up just six thus far; and three of those were in his season debut. The resurgent right-hander is 3-2 with a 2.77 ERA and 1.08 WHIP over eight starts.
May 19 - 12:17 AM
Elvis Andrus - SS - Rangers

Elvis Andrus went 5-for-5 with two RBI to help the Rangers beat the Tigers 7-2 on Saturday night.

Andrus got the Rangers on the board first when he singled and then later scored on a passed ball in the bottom of the opening inning. He would later add a triple, a double and two more singles, also tallying two steals. The talented shortstop is hitting .282/.328/.350 with 12 stolen bases in 42 games played this season.
May 18 - 11:44 PM
Anibal Sanchez - S - Tigers

Anibal Sanchez was rocked for six runs -- five earned -- in 2 2/3 innings Saturday in a loss to the Rangers.

It was a rare off outing for the right-hander, who had been ace-like all season. He coughed up nine hits and issued two walks, and the dangerous Texas offense was able to turn scoring chances into runs. Sanchez still has a 2.77 ERA and 1.23 WHIP on the year and should bounce back next week against the light-hitting Twins.
May 18 - 11:40 PM
David Ortiz - DH - Red Sox

David Ortiz was 3-for-4 with two homers and six RBI in Boston's 12-5 rout of the Twins on Saturday.

Ortiz hit a three-run shot in the top of the first inning, a run-scoring single in the top of the third and a two-run bomb in the top of the seventh. The veteran designated hitter has regressed some from his hot start but is still sporting an outstanding .362/.408/.681 batting line with seven homers and 29 RBI in 24 games.
May 18 - 11:35 PM
Ryan Dempster - S - Red Sox

Ryan Dempster allowed five earned runs over 4 2/3 innings but the Red Sox beat the Twins on Saturday.

Dempster was let off the hook by the Boston offense, which rattled off 12 runs in a rout of Minnesota. Dempster yielded eight hits and six walks, throwing only 68 of his 127 pitches for strikes. He now has a pedestrian 4.27 ERA and 1.31 WHIP in 52 2/3 innings, though we wouldn't give up on him quite yet because the strikeout rate is tremendous. Dempster will face the Indians next.
May 18 - 11:32 PM
Scott Diamond - S - Twins

Scott Diamond was hammered for six earned runs in 4 1/3 innings as the Twins lost to the Red Sox on Saturday.

It was the second straight outing in which he allowed six runs. Diamond showed some very positive signs in his first two starts of May, but he has quickly fallen back to earth. The left-hander now has a 4.99 ERA and 1.44 ERA in 39 2/3 innings this season and is not relevant outside of deep AL-only fantasy leagues.
