Cleveland Guardians vs. Detroit Tigers - News - July 05, 2022 | FOX Sports

Tucker Barnhart - Reaches three times Wednesday Barnhart went 1-for-2 with two walks, an RBI and a run scored in Wednesday's win over the Guardians.

Impact Barnhart has seen Eric Haase get more playing time lately, as the latter has five home runs over his last 12 games. Barnhart hasn't helped his cause with a .154 batting average over his past 10 contests, but he does now have hits in three straight games. The veteran should still see plenty of playing time due to his abilities behind the plate, though Haase will continue to draw starts due to his power potential.

Jonathan Schoop - Steals base, scores in win Schoop went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Wednesday's win over the Guardians.

Impact Schoop now has stolen bases in consecutive contests, giving him four steals for the season. That's double his previous career best, so speed has never been a huge part of the veteran's game. Schoop has gotten off to a hot start in July, batting .435 across six games, and the steals are boosting his fantasy value even further.

Kody Clemens - Pops third home run Clemens went 2-for-3 with a walk, a solo home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's win over the Guardians.

Impact Spencer Torkelson (head) returned recently and is seeing regular run at first base, but Clemens has now started at second and third in the past few days. He's gone deep three times over his past seven contests, so while he might not have a clear path to playing time at first, the 26-year-old could carve out a utility role if he keeps hitting for power.

Michael Pineda - Earns second win Pineda (2-3) allowed two runs on five hits across five innings to earn the win Wednesday against the Guardians. He walked two and struck out two.

Impact Pineda earned a win in his Detroit debut back on April 21, but this was his first victory since then. The veteran recently missed about six weeks with a fractured right middle finger, and he's now allowed five runs across 10 innings in two starts since returning from the injured list. Pineda will carry a solid 3.62 ERA into his next scheduled outing Monday against the Royals in one game of a doubleheader.

Franmil Reyes - Slugs seventh homer Reyes went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Wednesday against the Tigers.

Impact Reyes took Michael Pineda yard in the second inning to record his seventh homer of the season. After going deep only four times across his first 43 games of the campaign, Reyes has recorded three home runs in his last seven starts. Despite showing some signs of life at the plate, Reyes is still hitting just .212/.260/.360 across 204 plate appearances for the season.

Shane Bieber - Surrenders five runs Bieber (3-5) allowed five earned runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out six across 5.2 innings to take the loss Wednesday against Detroit.

Impact Bieber gave up a pair of runs in the second inning but appeared to settle in from there. However, he allowed three runs to cross the plate in the fifth frame to sink his day. Bieber has struggled a bit of late, managing only a 15:7 K:BB across his last three starts while surrendering 11 earned runs in the span of 18.2 innings. Despite that, he has still managed a quality start in two of those three games and has a 3.44 ERA for the season.
