Extends hitting streak with homer
Herrera went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's 11-9 loss to the Mariners.
Analysis
The 25-year-old went back-to-back with JJ Wetherholt in the bottom of the first inning off Bryan Woo, as Herrera extended his hitting streak to eight games. He was also hit by two more pitches, boosting his painful league-leading total to eight. Herrera was back at DH on Saturday after playing his 10th game of the season at catcher Friday, gaining eligibility at the position in most fantasy formats. He could see a bigger workload behind the plate in the short term if Pedro Pages ends up missing significant time after exiting Saturday's loss with hamstring tightness.

Swats third homer
Herrera went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Marlins.
Analysis
The 25-year-old spoiled Miami's combined shutout bid by taking Lake Bachar deep in the ninth inning. Herrera's bat is heating up -- he's hit safely in eight of the last 10 games, batting .263 (10-for-38) with all three of his long balls on the season along with six RBI and seven runs. He needs one more game played at catcher to reach 10 and gain eligibility at the position in common fantasy formats. That could happen as soon as Friday with Andre Pallante taking the mound versus Seattle, with Herrera having caught his four previous starts this year.
