Outlook David Hamilton
Speed-first infielder David Hamilton is a prime weekly stream with Coors Field on the horizon.
Hamilton has been a spark plug for the first-place Brewers (37-22), batting .278 with three stolen bases and five runs over his last seven days. Serving as a primary backup across the infield, his playing time remains secure thanks to his defense and game-changing speed. His recent highlight-reel plays have helped stabilize a Milwaukee lineup looking to maintain their lead in the NL Central.
While his .222 average over the last 30 days is a ratio risk, it aligns perfectly with our season projection of .227. Hamilton's true value lies in his elite wheels; his 13 stolen bases this year build upon his established career marks of 33 and 22 swipes. He remains a premium specialist whose speed-driven output is supported by our models.
The remainder of the week offers a dream schedule, starting with Adrian Houser (5.83 ERA) today before heading to Coors Field. The Rockies' rotation of Ryan Feltner, Tanner Gordon (6.37 ERA), and Kyle Freeland (8.06 ERA) offers incredibly favorable matchups for Hamilton to rack up runs and stolen bases. Verdict: Start.

Outlook Tristan Gray
Tristan Gray's blistering hot streak makes him an immediate lineup priority
Tristan Gray is swinging a blistering bat for the third-place Twins (29-34), hitting .364 with a home run and a massive 11 RBIs over his last seven games. Secured as Minnesota's everyday starter at third base, his playing time is completely safe with injuries testing team depth. His recent surge includes a spectacular five-RBI game on June 1st, keeping him firmly in the heart of the lineup.
While Gray's current run is a classic hot streak, his overall season line of .252 with four homers across 103 at-bats shows genuine growth compared to his career .107 mark in 2024. Our models expect some regression toward a .206 rest-of-season average, but his current power surge is a legitimate difference-maker.
With three games already played this week, the Twins finish out their schedule against divisional rival Kansas City. Gray faces a mix of challenging and vulnerable arms, getting tough matchups against Seth Lugo and Michael Wacha before hitting against high-ERA targets Luinder Avila (4.44 ERA) and Noah Cameron (4.22 ERA). Ride the hot hand. Verdict: Start.
