    • Getting MRI on knee
      Thomas will receive an MRI on his left knee Wednesday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.comreports.

      Advice: Thomas injured his knee while swiping a bag in the fifth inning of Tuesday's loss to the Dodgers. Once the results of his imaging come back, a better picture will emerge regarding the severity of his injury, as well as an estimate for how much time -- if any -- the 28-year-old will miss. Thomas is slashing .184/.250/.253 across 96 plate appearances this season. Rotowire.com 39 minutes ago

    • Lane Thomas to undergo MRI on left knee
      Lane Thomas will undergo an MRI on Wednesday on his left knee.

      Advice: It’s certainly not what fantasy managers want to hear after Thomas made an early exit from Tuesday’s showdown against the Dodgers after twisting his left leg on a stolen base attempt. There should be an update on his status prior to Wednesday’s showdown. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for the moment, but it’s possible he’ll wind up requiring a trip to the injured list. Rotoworld 41 minutes ago

    • Bednar locks down 4th save of the season
      David Bednar fired a scoreless ninth inning to secure the Pirates’ 2-1 win over the Brewers on Tuesday.

      Advice: It was a perfect inning for Bednar, who didn’t allow a single baserunner and struck out one hitter. The right-hander averaged 96.6 mph with his fastball and now has three scoreless performances in a row. The start of the season was rough, but Bednar has been one of the more reliable closers in baseball and should remain so this season. Rotoworld Today, 6:22 pm
       
    • Exits early Tuesday
      Thomas was removed from Tuesday's game against the Dodgers with an apparent leg injury, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

      Advice: Thomas appeared to tweak his left leg while stealing a base in the fifth inning, though he remained in the game briefly before being replaced on defense ahead of the seventh. The Nationals will take a closer look at him in the clubhouse and should offer more information on his status in the near future. Rotowire.com Today, 5:50 pm

    • Lane Thomas exits game with potential injury
      Lane Thomas made an early exit from Tuesday’s game against the Dodgers with a potential injury.

      Advice: Thomas appeared to twist his left leg while stealing second base -- his 11th theft of the season -- earlier in the contest. He was able to stay in the game initially before being replaced by Eddie Rosario in right field. There should be an update on his status shortly. Rotoworld Today, 5:44 pm

    • Corbin Carroll sitting Tuesday against southpaw
      Corbin Carroll is not in the lineup for Tuesday’s contest against the Cardinals

      Advice: It’s a routine off day for Carroll on Tuesday night with lefty Steven Matz toeing the rubber for the Cardinals. He’s gotten off to an excruciatingly-slow start this season with a calamitous .593 OPS with one homer and eight steals in 108 plate appearances through 23 contests. It’s only a matter of time before the 23-year-old fantasy superstar heats up at the dish, but it’s undeniable that he’s struggling at the moment. Rotoworld Today, 3:22 pm
       
    • Espada: Framber Valdez could return this weekend
      Astros manager Joe Espada told reporters Framber Valdez (elbow) could start this weekend in Mexico City.

      Advice: Espada added that Valdez will throw a bullpen session this week while the Astros are in Chicago and could return this weekend to start against the Rockies in Mexico City. The 30-year-old southpaw landed on the injured list earlier this month with left elbow inflammation, but has been able to complete several recent bullpen sessions without any issues. It certainly sounds like he could return to bolster Houston’s injury-plagued starting rotation this weekend. Stay tuned. Rotoworld Today, 2:49 pm
       
    • Heston Kjerstad batting eighth in season debut
      Heston Kjerstad is in right field and batting eighth on Tuesday in his season debut against the Angels.

      Advice: It’s an extremely encouraging sign that the Orioles are throwing Kjerstad right into the fire following his early-season promotion instead of having him languish on the bench. The 25-year-old slugger tore the cover off the ball this season for Triple-A Norfolk, posting an astronomical 1.176 OPS with 10 homers, 30 RBI and one steal in 21 games. He projects as a potential four-category impact fantasy contributor, if he’s given an everyday opportunity in Baltimore’s loaded lineup. Rotoworld Today, 2:34 pm
       
    • Receives first day off
      Torkelson is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.

      Advice: Torkelson started the first 23 games of the season, but he has a .231/.311/.319 slash line and will take a seat Tuesday. Mark Canha will shift to first as Riley Greene serves as the designated hitter and Wenceel Perez receives a start in right field. Rotowire.com Today, 1:19 pm
