    • Sitting vs. lefty Sunday
      Yoshida is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Reds.

      Advice: With Cincinnati sending southpaw Nick Lodolo to the mound Sunday, the lefty-hitting Yoshida will begin the game in the dugout. He went 0-for-8 over the first two games of the series, and since returning from a thumb injury June 11, he's gone 4-for-34 with one RBI. Rob Refsnyder will serve as the designated hitter Sunday and bat second. Rotowire.com Sunday, 8:11 am
       
    • Homers in return to lineup
      Jones went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Friday against the Nationals.

      Advice: Jones was out of the starting nine for two games with an illness, but he returned to the lineup and hit sixth Friday. He tallied his second home run of the season and has seven hits across 18 at-bats with only three strikeouts since being activated from the injured list June 14. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:48 pm

    • Fernando Tatis Jr. day-to-day with triceps contusion
      Fernando Tatis Jr. is day-to-day with a left triceps contusion, the Padres announced.

      Advice: Tatis left Friday’s game after he was in the elbow by a pitch. If he can’t play Saturday, then José Azocar will probably play right field. Rotoworld Friday, 9:32 pm
       
    • Fernando Tatis Jr. leaves game after hit by pitch
      Fernando Tatis Jr. was pulled from Friday night’s battle against the Brewers after he was hit by a pitch on his left elbow.

      Advice: The 25-year-old superstar remained in the game to run the bass for himself and even played another couple of innings in the field, but he was ultimately lifted for a pinch-hitter the next time that his spot came around in the Padres’ lineup. He’ll presumably head for X-rays to rule out any potential fractures. Stay tuned, as the Padres should have an update on his status after the game. Rotoworld Friday, 8:26 pm
       
    • Exits after HBP
      Tatis was removed from Friday's game against the Brewers after being hit by a pitch on the elbow, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Tatis was plunked in the third inning, though he stayed in the contest for two more frames before being removed for a pinch hitter. The Padres should provide an update on his availability after the game. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:24 pm
       
    • Nolan Jones (illness) returns to lineup on Friday
      Nolan Jones (illness) returned to the Rockies’ starting lineup for Friday’s series opener against the Nationals.

      Advice: The dynamic 26-year-old outfielder missed each of the team’s previous two games due to illness, but he’s right back out there in left field on Friday night. Jones will bat sixth against DJ Herz and the Nationals on Friday evening at Coors Field. Rotoworld Friday, 1:45 pm

    • Alex Verdugo sits against left-hander on Friday
      Alex Verdugo is not in the Yankees’ starting lineup for Friday night’s battle against the Braves.

      Advice: While Verdugo started each of the team’s last two games against left-handed starters, he’ll get a breather with tough southpaw Chris Sale taking the hill for the Braves on Friday night. Verdugo is enjoying a solid season for the Bombers’, slashing .254/.309/.413 with nine homers and 41 RBI through his first 74 ballgames. Jahmai Jones will start in his place in left field and bat fifth for the Yankees on Friday evening in the Bronx. Rotoworld Friday, 1:10 pm

    • Back from illness
      Jones (illness) will start in left field and bat sixth in Friday's game against the Nationals.

      Advice: Jones missed two contests because he was under the weather, but he'll give it a go Friday. The 26-year-old is 5-for-14 with a 2:8 K:BB over six games since returning from the injured list. Rotowire.com Friday, 12:43 pm

    • Sitting against lefty
      Verdugo is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Atlanta.

      Advice: Verdugo will dodge a matchup with southpaw Chris Sale on Friday. Instead, Jahmai Jones will bat fifth and fill left field. Rotowire.com Friday, 12:39 pm
