Welcome to DraftKings fantasy baseball, the Official Daily Fantasy Game of Major League Baseball. The following players could provide difference-making stats for DraftKings participants on Tuesday.

Commissioner Rob Manfred met with the Cardinals prior to their series opener with the Brewers on Monday as part of an ongoing effort to speak to the players on all teams.

Monday brought this year’s Phillies Phestival, which raises money to fight amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, commonly known as ALS or Lou Gehrig’s Disease, and the entire team and coaching staff were on hand, signing autographs and participating in the festivities of the day.

The Rangers are calling up top prospect Joey Gallo to fill in for injured third baseman Adrian Beltre. Before Tuesday’s game against the White Sox, the Rangers will purchase Gallo’s contract from Double-A Frisco and place him on the active roster. Beltre, out with a sprained left thumb, was placed on the 15-day disabled list Monday.

The Royals are in a very good place when it comes to the 2015 Esurance All-Star Game Ballot voting for the American League’s starting position players in next month’s All-Star Game. But there is plenty of time for players from other teams to make their moves.

At the second update in the 2015 Esurance MLB All-Star Game Ballot for the American League, the Royals continue to have five players in position to start the July 14 Midsummer Classic at Great American Ball Park.

Will Middlebrooks knocked in three runs and Odrisamer Despaigne allowed one run over a career-high eight innings Sunday as the Padres defeated the Pirates, 7-1, before a crowd of 20,556 at Petco Park.

With David Price out of the game Sunday night, the Angels finally broke through for two huge eighth-inning runs, with Johnny Giavotella’s two-out, two-run single leading them to a 4-2 win and a four-game sweep of the Tigers at Angel Stadium.

It’s the first week of June in Major League Baseball, so with two months already in the 2015 history books, you might think the American and National League standings would be starting to present themselves clearly. Maybe for some teams. Not for the members of the AL East.

The first-place Twins, coming off a 20-win May, head to Boston to face the Red Sox. And Felix Hernandez takes on former teammate Michael Pineda when the Mariners play host to the Yankees. Those are just two games to keep an eye on Monday.

When Torii Hunter returned to the Twins, we should have know what that would mean for their record. In May, we learned how much the veteran impacts Minnesota’s standings, that the Giants can perform in an odd year and much more.

The Indians capped a turnaround May with a 6-3, 12-inning win over the Mariners on Sunday at Safeco Field. In a game that lasted more than four-and-a-half hours, left fielder Michael Brantley earned a bases-loaded walk with two outs in the top of the 12th and right fielder David Murphy followed with a two-run single to break open a 3-3 game.

On the one-year anniversary of Oscar Taveras’ Major League debut, the Cardinals paused before Sunday’s series finale to honor the Taveras family and celebrate a career cut tragically short last October.

The Minnesota Twins weren’t on a lot of preseason radars, but as we enter Week 9 of the MLB Power Rankings presented by The All-New Chrysler 200, it’s time to acknowledge them as legitimate residents in our top 10.

Martin Maldonado hit a home run to dead center in the 17th inning as the Brewers walked off the D-backs, 7-6, on Sunday afternoon at Miller Park.

David Ross drove in Kris Bryant on a blooper to left field with one out in the 11th inning to give the Cubs a 2-1 walk-off win over the Royals on Sunday afternoon at Wrigley Field. Kansas City starter Yordano Ventura went seven solid frames in a no-decision.

Jace Peterson’s three-run triple off Santiago Casillla capped the four-run ninth inning the Braves constructed to claim a 7-5 comeback victory over the Giants on Sunday afternoon at AT&T Park.
