Outlook Dominic Canzone
Dominic Canzone provides steady power in a injury-depleted Mariners lineup
Canzone has been a primary power source for Seattle lately, launching five home runs over his last 30 games despite a cooling .212 batting average. He currently serves as the everyday designated hitter for a second-place Mariners squad that sits at 48-49 and remains just 1.5 games back in the division. His role is further solidified by a wave of team health issues, as the absence of stars like Julio Rodriguez and Brendan Donovan keeps Canzone locked into the heart of the batting order.
His 2026 production has been a significant step forward, as he has already set a career high with 15 home runs while maintaining a strong .866 OPS through 83 games. While his recent slump in contact rate is a minor concern, our data suggests his season-long .264 average is a much more accurate reflection of his growth as a hitter. Fantasy managers should view this breakout as legitimate, as his improved slugging percentage is backed by consistent everyday playing time.
Seattle finishes the week with a three-game home stand against San Francisco. Canzone gets a favorable draw on Friday against Landen Roupp and his 4.37 ERA, though the weekend becomes more challenging with matchups against Logan Webb and Robbie Ray. Even against tougher veteran arms, Canzone's ability to provide home runs in short bursts makes him a valuable asset for managers hunting for power categories in the second half of the season. Start.

Outlook Jacob Wilson
Jacob Wilson provides a rare bright spot with a blistering hot streak for the struggling Athletics
Wilson has been on a tear over the last seven days, batting an incredible .467 with seven hits and a triple across four games. Despite his individual success, the Athletics are mired in a difficult stretch, sitting at 41-55 and currently enduring a nine-game losing streak. Wilson is fully healthy and remains a locked-in starter in the middle of the infield, consistently breaking up perfect game bids and delivering highlight-reel defensive plays.
While his .281 season average is solid, our models project him to finish near .288, suggesting his recent surge is a return to his high-contact baseline established during his 2025 campaign where he hit .313. The power has been slow to develop this year with only four home runs compared to a projection of 10, but his elite bat-to-ball skills make him a high-floor asset. Expect his run production to stabilize as his projected .333 on-base percentage leads to more scoring opportunities.
Looking at the remainder of the week through July 19th, Wilson’s volume is non-existent as our data shows zero games scheduled, which aligns with the mid-season break. While he is hitting far too well to consider dropping in any format, the lack of immediate games makes him an mandatory sit for weekly lineups. Keep him stashed on your bench and prepare to re-insert him once the schedule resumes so you can capitalize on his elite contact skills. Sit.
