George Springer

Springer went 3-for-4 with a two-run home run, a solo home run, a double and an additional run scored during Sunday's 5-4 win over the Tigers.

After being written off for dead in the first few months of the season, Springer has caught fire of late, now going 19-for-61 (.311) in 16 games in July with five home runs, 11 runs, and 15 RBI. The injury to Bo Bichette has allowed Springer to move back up in the lineup, which puts him firmly back on the radar in all fantasy leagues.

Springer doubled in the sixth inning to drive in two runs, capping off a seven-run frame for the Blue Jays. He drove in a third run with another double in the eighth to extend the lead. The 34-year-old outfielder is hitting .220/.308/.362 with 10 homers, 41 runs scored, 34 RBI, and nine steals across 352 plate appearances.

After going yard against the Giants on Tuesday, Clement went deep once again, blasting a three-run homer off Logan Webb in the fifth inning. He drove in a fourth run with a base hit in the sixth. Clement led off the eighth with a single and scored again on a double by George Springer. The 28-year-old infielder is hitting .261/.276/.432 with six homers, 22 runs scored, 21 RBI, and three steals across 183 plate appearances.
