    • Receiving maintenance day
      Robert is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins.

      Advice: Robert had started in each of the White Sox's previous 12 games, and with no word that he sustained any sort of injury in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Marlins, he's most likely just getting a needed maintenance day Monday. With Robert on the bench, the White Sox will roll out a starting outfield of Andrew Benintendi, Tommy Pham and Gavin Sheets from left to right. Rotowire.com Today, 1:48 pm
       
    • Cleared to begin running program
      Friedl (hamstring) was cleared to begin a running progression during a follow-up visit with the doctor Monday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

      Advice: Friedl had already resumed playing catch and swinging off a tee, but ramping up his running will be the big test as he works his way back from a strained left hamstring. He has been sidelined for the last two weeks but could return from the 10-day injured list shortly after the All-Star break if all goes well. Rotowire.com Today, 1:04 pm

    • Lars Nootbaar comes off the IL on Monday
      Cardinals activated OF Lars Nootbaar (oblique) from the 10-day IL.

      Advice: Nootbaar played 13 games on his rehab assignment, including five at Triple-A, where he went just 3-for-17. Injuries have hampered the potential breakout for Nootbaar this season, but he should return to an everyday role in center field with Michael Siani shifting back to the bench. Jose Fermin was sent to the minors in a corresponding move. Rotoworld Today, 9:16 am
       
    • Returns from 10-day injured list
      The Cardinals activated Nootbaar (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

      Advice: Nootbaar missed nearly six weeks of action with a strained oblique and is ready to return after going 6-for-23 with two home runs during a seven-game rehab assignment at Double-A Springfield. He should resume everyday duties in right field, resulting in Alec Burleson settling back in as St. Louis' designated hitter. Rotowire.com Today, 9:13 am
       
    • Goes yard Sunday
      Garver went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run during Sunday's 5-4 loss to Toronto in 10 innings.

      Advice: Garver clubbed his fourth home run in his last nine starts, tagging Jose Berrios for a three-run shot in the fifth inning. Though he's provided a steady flow of homers, Sunday's outing marked Garver's first multi-hit performance in 14 games. Since the start of June, Garver is batting 19-for-94 (.202) with 22 RBI.

    • Generates another quality start
      Kirby didn't factor into the decision Sunday against the Blue Jays, allowing three runs on seven hits and a walk over six-plus innings. He struck out eight.

      Advice: Kirby posted a sixth straight quality start and left the contest having allowed just one run. However, he left a pair of runners on the basepaths, both of which came in to score on a George Springer home run to finalize Kirby's earned run total at three. Kirby is tied for the 10th most quality starts in baseball and ranks top-10 in innings pitched with 111.2. He owns a 3.39 ERA and a 1.00 WHIP along with an outstanding 109:11 K:BB on the year. He's scheduled to face the Angels next weekend. Rotowire.com Today, 12:51 am
       
    • Blasts home run, swipes bag
      Contreras went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer, three RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Nationals.

      Advice: Contreras had a monster game against the Nationals, contributing in all facets and extended a hitting streak to six games in Sunday's win. He clubbed his ninth home run of the season and his third in his last six games. The veteran had his first three RBI game of the season and picked up his third stolen base in the process. He's been playing well since returning from the IL and is hitting .299/.399/.529 for the campaign. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:12 pm
       
    • Possible return Monday
      Nootbaar (oblique) is nearing a return and could rejoin the Cardinals as soon as Monday in Washington.

      Advice: Nootbaar has been out since May 30 while recovering from a left oblique strain, but he appears to be on the cusp of being activated from the 15-day injured list. The outfielder went 6-for-23 with two home runs, three RBI and four runs scored over seven games during his rehab assignment with Double-A Springfield before joining returning to St. Louis.

    • Mitch Garver clubs three-run homer in loss Sunday
      Mitch Garver clubbed a three-run homer on Sunday afternoon, but it wasn’t enough to power the Mariners past the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Garver socked his 407-foot (102.8 mph EV) three-run shot off of Jose Berrios in the fifth inning, giving the Mariners a 4-1 lead. That would wind up being the extent of their offense. The 33-year-old backstop finished the day 2-for-5 plus a walk and is now hitting .179/.293/.371 with 12 homers and 36 RBI on the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:47 pm
