Outlook Bryce Eldridge
Giants prospect Bryce Eldridge is tearing up big-league pitching during a scorching hot streak.
The Giants' prized prospect is on a phenomenal run, batting .353 with six doubles and a 1.068 OPS over his last 11 games. This scorching stretch has locked him into the primary designated hitter role for San Francisco, providing a massive offensive spark for the fourth-place Giants (24-38) as they navigate key injuries.
While his current production dwarfs our .231 projected season average, his elite power is undeniable, highlighted by a recent 453-foot blast. Eldridge possesses outstanding plate discipline, supported by our projected .391 season OBP, indicating that even when the average cools down, he will remain a highly productive asset.
The Giants have four remaining road games this week, featuring matchups against Milwaukee and Chicago. He faces tough tests in Coleman Crow (3.14 ERA) and Ben Brown (1.92 ERA) before encountering friendlier pitching in Edward Cabrera (4.00 ERA) and Jameson Taillon (5.13 ERA). With his bat fully dialed in, he is a fantastic lineup option. Verdict: Start.

Outlook Brandon Marsh
Brandon Marsh is on an absolute tear at the plate, making him a must-start option for fantasy lineups this week.
Brandon Marsh is in the midst of an absolute tear at the plate, batting .387 with an outstanding 1.022 OPS over his last 14 days for the second-place Phillies. Completely past a minor late-May finger injury, the everyday left fielder continues to secure his status as an essential offensive asset while driving Philadelphia's lineup.
While his current .335 batting average will inevitably regress toward our moderate .260 season projection, his historic BABIP skills show his contact-heavy profile is no flash in the pan. Our models expect him to settle in as a highly reliable contributor for runs and double-digit stolen bases over the rest of the season.
The Phillies finish their home series with San Diego today before welcoming Chicago for the weekend, giving Marsh four remaining matchups against highly vulnerable arms like Lucas Giolito and David Sandlin. Given these incredibly soft matchups and his scorching-hot form, you must lock him into your active lineup. Verdict: Start.
