This week we saw some interesting rookie debuts. Most notably, we saw an epic matchup involving two guys named Miller. Both Bryce Miller and Mason Miller impressed, with Mason throwing seven innings of no-hit baseball and Bryce taking a perfect game into the sixth inning.

In addition to those below, Brent Rooker and Connor Joe, who we mentioned previously, remain hot and should be added if available.
