It’s possible we’re reading too much into an April quote, but it’s something worth keeping in mind. When asked about who he views as the Jaguars’ primary options for the WR2, Coen said, “I think you look naturally now at Parker Washington and Dyami Brown at the receiver positions,” failing to mention last year’s WR2, Gabe Davis. Davis, whom the Jaguars signed to a three-year, $39 million contract last offseason, was woefully disappointing in his first season in Duval. He caught 20 passes for 239 yards and two scores while appearing in 10 games, but was shut down after Week 11 due to a torn meniscus. Washington enters his third year as a pro and has shown flashes in each of his first two seasons in the league, while Brown is entering his first year with the Jaguars after signing a fully guaranteed one-year, $10 million contract in the offseason. With the draft still to go, it’s possible Coen and his new regime are putting together a room of preferred names at receiver, and Davis could be on the outs. Coen failing to mention Davis may have been little more than an oversight, but there’s little reason to believe his role as the team’s WR2 is secure following last year’s performance.

That’s the first homer for Paris since April 9 when he went deep twice against Tampa Bay and caused everyone to lose all sense of rational thought. The 23-year-old did also single and walk to improve his on-base percentage to .311,, while the homer bumps his slugging mark to .378. There is long-term upside in Paris with flashes that suggest he can be a fantasy option. Fantasy managers should still absolutely looking elsewhere for options up the middle.

While the Yankees won this game on a walk-off in the 10th inning, Grisham’s game-tying home run in the eighth was the biggest moment. He came on as a pinch-hitter for Jorbit Vibas against the usually stout Jason Adam and smashed a two-strike changeup into the right field seats. This clutch shot will only continue to push Grisham’s playing time in the right direction after he just started eight of the last 10 games, hit either first or second in each, and already has 10 homers in 31 games played this season.

The Yankees entrusted Williams with the all important 10th inning and the inherited ghost runner on second base after their dramatic comeback. While he loaded the bases and had some tense moments, he left the inning unscathed and opened the door for them to win it right after. It should be noted that Luke Weaver came on for what were the most important outs of this game at the time, after Ian Hamilton walked two to begin the eighth inning and Weaver allowed both of those inherited runners to score. He was called upon as the fireman though and will likely get the next save opportunity. Still, this was a massive step in the right direction for Williams.

Fried’s excellent season continued as he set down the Padres easily besides for a mammoth solo home run by Jackson Merrill. It was no matter though, as they rarely threatened otherwise and Fried continued to find his strikeout stuff. This was his fourth outing of the year with at least seven strikeouts, a mark he only hit 10 times last season in 29 starts. Fried with a strikeout rate that’s better than league average – which is where he’s at right now – is a clear top-10 pitcher in fantasy baseball. He’s set for a two-start week coming up against the Mariners and Mets.
