    • Christopher Morel exits after collision on Saturday
      Christopher Morel was removed from Saturday’s game against the Red Sox after colliding with teammate Alexander Canario.

      Advice: Morel told reporters after the game that he felt alright, just a little banged up — specifically noting his right hip and both elbows. He did say that he was optimistic about his ability to play on Sunday, though manager Craig Counsell may have other plans. Be sure to check on his status prior to Sunday’s series finale.

    • Emerges from fall uninjured
      Cubs manager Craig Counsell said Morel "is fine" after exiting Saturday's game versus the Red Sox after the seventh inning following a fall in the outfield, CHGO Cubs reports.

      Advice: Morel toppled over left fielder Alexander Canario after making a running catch and landed hard on the ground, banging up his elbows and right hip. He looked to be in some pain and was removed from the game at that point. However, it sounds like he probably would've remained in if the score hadn't been so lopsided. It's possible the Cubs will hold Morel out Sunday if he's still a bit sore, but it does not appear fantasy managers need to have any real worry about his status. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:16 pm

    • Notches eighth save
      Phillips gave up an unearned run on one hit and struck out two Saturday to record his eighth save of the season in a 4-2 win over the Blue Jays.

      Advice: The closer's own throwing error with two outs put Davis Schneider aboard and led to Toronto's final run, but Phillips otherwise had little trouble sealing the victory. The right-hander is a perfect 8-for-8 in converting save chances to begin the season, and he's delivered a dazzling 0.77 ERA and 15:4 K:BB through 11.2 innings.

    • Evan Phillips notches eighth save on Saturday
      Evan Phillips allowed one run with two strikeouts in the ninth inning against the Blue Jays on Saturday to earn the save.

      Advice: Phillips was summoned with a three-run lead in the ninth against Toronto. He quickly struck out the first two batters, but put a runner on with a throwing error. A base hit would bring in a run to make it a two-run game, but Phillips would hold on to record the final out and his eighth save of the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:03 pm
       
    • Back at first base Saturday
      Abreu is starting at first base and batting eighth in Saturday's contest against the Rockies in Mexico City.

      Advice: Abreu has ceded the starting first base job to Jon Singleton as of late, with the former going 1-for-21 over his last seven games. Abreu will hope to turn around his poor start to the season Saturday against Rockies right-hander Cal Quantrill. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:24 pm
       
    • Taj Bradley to make rehab start Sunday at Triple-A
      Taj Bradley (pectoral) will make a minor league rehab start on Sunday for Triple-A Durham.

      Advice: Bradley threw 62 pitches over four innings earlier this week in an extended spring training contest and will face Triple-A level hitters this weekend as he continues to work his way back from a mid-March right pectoral strain. The 23-year-old righty should be ready to rejoin Tampa Bay’s starting rotation mix at some point in early May, barring any unexpected setbacks. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:17 am
       
    • Idle against southpaw
      Lux isn't in the Dodgers' lineup for Saturday's game against the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Lux will retreat to the dugout as the Jays send left-hander Yusei Kikuchi to the hill as Saturday's starter. Mookie Betts will slide to second base as a result while Miguel Rojas starts at shortstop. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:10 am
       
    • Ramping up at complex
      Friedl (wrist) is ramping up baseball activities at the team's complex in Goodyear (Ariz.) and could begin playing games as a defensive player only this weekend, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: After serving as a defensive player only, Friedl could move onto bunting in games and possibly a rehab assignment by the middle of next week. Cincinnati manager David Bell said he'll need between one and two weeks before being ready to return, noting the need to build up at-bats. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:28 am
       
    • Tallies two hits Friday
      Morel went 2-for-5 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Friday's 7-1 win over the Red Sox.

      Advice: Morel has been scuffling a bit lately, as he's batting just .176 over his last 10 games with no home runs, and he has just three long balls overall this season across 25 contests. Still, the 24-year-old is a legitimate power threat, and even though he hasn't really gotten going in that department yet, he can heat up in a hurry and hit homers in bunches.
