Luke Raley Launches Another Homer, Carries Must-Add Value for Power Upside
Seattle Mariners first baseman/outfielder Luke Raley continues to show off his impressive power upside. On Saturday, Raley went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a single in the 5-1 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. Raley has homered in back-to-back games and has three homers over his last five games. The left-handed slugger has been showing off some impressive power this season with 13 blasts across 53 games. He's mainly a platoon bat right now, sharing right field with Victor Robles. Raley might not play every day, but he offers enough power upside to warrant looking at him in deep leagues.

Gregory Soto Earns Seventh Save, Remains Must-Roster Closer
Pittsburgh Pirates relief pitcher Gregory Soto was called upon a little earlier than usual on Saturday. Soto came into the game in the eighth inning up by one run with two runners on and two outs. He was able to get out of the inning before closing things down in the ninth inning to earn his seventh save of the season. Soto has thrown five straight outings without allowing a hit or run. This season, Soto owns a 1.95 ERA, 0.76 WHIP, and a 32:11 K:BB ratio across 27.2 innings of work. The 31-year-old has established himself as the primary closer in Pittsburgh and should be rostered in most leagues where saves matter.

Jack Perkins Stumbles in Ninth Inning, Should Managers be Concerned?
Athletics pitcher Jack Perkins was unable to finish off a five-run game during Saturday's outing versus the New York Yankees. The right-hander took the mound for the first time since throwing 4.2 scoreless innings on Monday. Perkins looked rusty as he allowed a single and two walks before exiting the contest. Scott Barlow replaced him on the mound and proceeded to walk the next three batters. All of those runs were charged to Perkins, so his ERA will rise to 5.96 on the season. It's unclear if Perkins will remain in this late-inning role or move into the starting rotation with Luis Severino (shoulder) landing on the Injured List. Fantasy managers should hold him for now, because a move to the rotation would likely help his fantasy value.

Tanner Scott Blows Save, Losing High-Leverage Role?
Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Tanner Scott didn't look his best on the mound versus the Philadelphia Phillies on Sunday. Scott came into the game with a two-run lead in the eighth inning. He proceeded to give up two singles and a home run to turn a 3-1 lead into a 4-3 deficit. This rough outing will end his 12.1 scoreless inning streak. Overall, Scott owns a 2.19 ERA, 0.69 WHIP, and a 28:3 K:BB ratio with five saves and five holds this season. He has mostly been solid for the Dodgers, so this one bad outing shouldn't drop him in the pecking order. Scott figures to remain in the mix for saves, but might be unavailable on Sunday after pitching on Saturday.
