Did you know (20:19) that Juan Soto is tied with Fernando Tatis in fantasy points per game? Also, what do we make of Kenta Maeda's pitch count, Aaron Civale is a points league stud, Miguel Sano is a stud, and Brad Miller isn't bad anymore? ... For the rest of Monday's action, Blake Snell is turning things around and Stephen Piscotty is hot (32:30).
