A long list of ace pitchers means there could be some huge scores in daily fantasy baseball Tuesday. Make sure you get the right players at each spot to help you get into the money in any contest. 

Pitchers to Draft

Corey Kluber, Cleveland Indians ($10,900)

Jose Fernandez is still learning how to make a deliberate comeback. 

If you're going to hit your first major league home run, you might as well make it a walk-off.

That's exactly what Atlanta Braves catcher Christian Bethancourt did Saturday night versus the Pittsburgh Pirates.

With the game tied 4-4 in the bottom of the ninth, Bethancourt crushed the first pitch he saw over the right field fence.

As expected, he was mobbed when he crossed home plate.

Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Jake Odorizzi left June 5's game against the Seattle Mariners with tightness in his left side.

Still without a diagnosis, Odorizzi told Roger Mooney of the Tampa Tribune that he will see a doctor on Monday:

Evan Longoria has been helping to turn things around this season in Tampa Bay, but he will be sidelined on June 6 against the Seattle Mariners with the announcement that he hurt his wrist. He will be day-to-day.

Longoria told Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times the extent of his injury:

Texas Rangers pitcher Chi Chi Gonzalez tossed a shutout in Friday's 4-0 win over the Kansas City Royals and set a franchise record by starting his career with 14.2 consecutive scoreless innings, per Elias Sports Bureau (via ESPN Stats & Info).

Philadelphia Phillies ace Cole Hamels has been the subject of trade rumors for quite some time, and that figures to continue as Major League Baseball's July 31 trade deadline draws closer.

Hamels Not Pushing for Trade From Philly

Saturday, June 6

It is clear that the Phillies are a long way from contention, but their 31-year-old No. 1 starter is in no hurry to be dealt elsewhere despite that.

It takes a special kind of Mets fan to stream a Binghamton Mets game in the Pacific Northwest while it’s sunny outside. 

Although it takes a while for top baseball prospects to become household names, every franchise is looking for a brighter future through the MLB draft.

Unlike the NBA or NFL draft, where players are expected to contribute right away, those taken in the baseball draft—whether they come from high school or college—often need seasoning in the minors. Still, there are plenty of players available with tons of upside on the mound, in the field or at the plate.

Every day that passes is another day closer to the July 31 trade deadline. For the first time in what seems like ages, the Houston Astros are shaping up to be buyers, not sellers, as that time approaches.

It is already June, and the Houston Astros still have the best record in the American League. After years of trading veterans in exchange for young prospects, the shoe is finally on the other foot.
