Mookie Betts shows he's ready for home run derby during Dodgers' win over RoyalsMookie Betts hit home runs during the first and second innings, helping the Dodgers beat the Royals in Kansas City Friday.
Bobby Miller - Decent in win over RoyalsMiller (4-1) allowed three runs on five hits and a walk while striking out four over 5.2 innings to earn the win over the Royals on Friday.
ImpactMiller came up one out short of a quality start, but this was still a vast improvement over his last two outings, in which he gave up a combined 13 runs over 9.2 innings. The rookie right-hander now has a 4.23 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 35:14 K:BB over 38.1 innings through his first seven big-league starts. He's still walking a few too many batters to be dominant, but his rotation spot is likely safe at least until Noah Syndergaard (finger) returns. Miller is projected for a home start versus the Pirates next week.

Kris Bryant - Hitless in returnBryant (heel) went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in Friday's 8-5 win over the Tigers.
ImpactBryant was able to play the full game in right field, but he was one of two Rockies to fail to record a hit. He missed a month while dealing with an injured left heel, which may require occasional maintenance days going forward. He went just 4-for-35 (.114) across the 10 games before his absence, so Bryant will need to get his bat going to avoid losing playing time for performance reasons.
