    • Bound for injured list
      Atlanta will place Harris (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list Saturday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Harris had to make an early exit from Friday's game versus Tampa Bay due to tightness in his left hamstring, and the team has already deemed his injury severe enough to warrant a trip to the IL. The 23-year-old outfielder will receive an MRI on his hamstring Saturday, at which point the team will have a better idea of how long he will be out for. In the meantime, Harris' absence opens a spot in Atlanta's outfield for J.P. Martinez to potentially see consistent playing time. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:25 pm
       
    • Michael Harris II (hamstring) heading to 10-day IL
      Braves’ manager Brian Snitker told reporters after Friday’s game that Michael Harris II will be placed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday.

      Advice: The 23-year-old outfielder was pulled from Friday’s game in the first inning due to tightness in his left hamstring. He’ll undergo an MRI exam on Saturday to determine the severity of the injury, but he’s going to miss at least a couple of weeks. With Ronald Acuna Jr. already lost for the year and Harris now out for an indefinite amount of time, don’t be surprised if the Braves aggressively pursue the trade market for help at the position.

    • Scratched Friday
      Cruz was scratched from the Pirates' lineup ahead of Friday's game versus Colorado due to left ankle soreness, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

      Advice: Cruz was initially slated to start at shortstop during Friday's series opener, but it will instead be Jared Triolo making his first career start at short while Cruz takes a day to recover from a tweaked ankle he suffered during Thursday's contest.

    • Oneil Cruz (ankle) scratched from lineup on Friday
      Oneil Cruz was scratched from the Pirates’ starting lineup on Friday night due to a sore ankle.

      Advice: Cruz tweaked his ankle again while running the bases during Thursday’s game and just wasn’t quite ready to give it a go on Friday night. He’s considered day-to-day. Jared Triolo will start in his place at shortstop and bat eighth for the Pirates at Coors Field on Friday evening. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:08 pm
       
    • Michael Harris leaves game with hamstring tightness
      The Braves announced that Michael Harris II was pulled from Friday’s showdown against the Rays in the first inning due to left hamstring tightness.

      Advice: That’s certainly what it looked like on the field, but it’s nice to receive confirmation from the team so quickly. He’ll head for further evaluation to determine the severity of the injury. If he’s forced to miss any extended time, we could see the Braves turn to the trade market to try to bring in some outside help — as Alex Anthopoulous has been known to do.

    • Exits Friday's game
      Harris was removed from Friday's game against the Rays due to left hamstring tightness.

      Advice: Harris strained his left hamstring while running from first base to third in the bottom of the first inning. J.P. Martinez pinch ran for Harris and is in center field for the remainder of Friday's game. More information on the severity of Harris' injury should be known following Friday's contest.

    • Michael Harris II exits game with hamstring injury
      Michael Harris II was removed from Friday’s matchup against the Rays in the first inning due to an apparent hamstring injury.

      Advice: The 23-year-old outfielder led off the home half of the first inning with a double, but pulled up lame into third base on a double by Ozzie Albies and was subsequently removed from the ballgame. It appeared to be a hamstring issue, but the Braves should have an update on his status shortly. Stay tuned. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:39 pm
       
    • Takes seat Friday
      Cowser is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Phillies.

      Advice: Left-hander Ranger Suarez is drawing the start for the Phillies, so the lefty-hitting Cowser will begin this one on the bench. The Orioles are going with Austin Hays in left field and Cedric Mullins in center Friday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:59 am
       
    • Back in lineup
      Suarez started at third base and went 0-for-2 with a walk and a run scored in Thursday's 11-1 win over the Angels. He was also hit by a pitch.

      Advice: Suarez returned to the lineup after being replaced at the hot corner by Blaze Alexander the previous day. Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said Alexander will be given more opportunities at third with Suarez (.195/.267/.309) mired in a season-long slump. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:59 am
