Jacob Wilson of the Oakland Athletics has burst onto the fantasy baseball scene, boasting an impressive .370 batting average with 8 home runs and 37 RBIs. His high BABIP of .372 and power potential make him a must-watch as the season progresses. Meanwhile, Max Muncy of the Los Angeles Dodgers is beginning to find his stride, significantly improving his performance after adopting prescription glasses, raising his batting average to .272 with a .583 slugging percentage since late April.

On the pitching side, Merrill Kelly of the Arizona Diamondbacks has shown signs of returning to form, highlighted by a 3.43 ERA and increased strikeout rates in recent outings. Conversely, Jesus Luzardo's recent struggles have raised concerns, as he gave up 20 runs in just 5.2 innings over his last two starts. Fantasy managers should closely evaluate these players as they navigate their respective slumps and rises to capitalize on the trends.
