    The Rockies recalled Toglia from Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday

    Advice: With Kris Bryant (ribs) and Sean Bouchard (foot) headed to the injured list, the Rockies will call upon Toglia to add depth to their depleted outfield group. The 25-year-old owns a .505 OPS through 49 plate appearances in the big leagues this season, but he's slashed .277/.363/.571 with nine homers and 27 RBI since being sent down to Triple-A in late April.

  • Day off
    LeMahieu is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Twins.

    Advice: LeMahieu has now started seven of nine games since his return from the injured list but has gone just 4-for-22 with no extra-base hits during that stretch. Oswaldo Cabrera will get the call at third base for the Yankees on Thursday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:22 pm

  • Officially placed on IL
    The Rockies placed Bryant on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a left rib contusion.

    Advice: Bryant missed three games in a row due to back soreness, but the Rockies are now reporting his injury to be rib related. The 32-year-old missed a month earlier in the season due to a back/rib issue, though the current injury is likely to require a shorter stint on the shelf. Greg Jones was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:12 pm

  • Rockies promote Toglia from Triple-A
    Rockies recalled INF/OF Michael Togilia from Triple-A Albuquerque.

    Advice: The 25-year-old got a chance earlier in the season thanks to a Kris Bryant injury and it looks like he’ll get another one here. He has hit .106/.143/.362 with four homers, eight RBI, and a 20/1 K/BB ratio in 49 plate appearances and should not be on fantasy radars. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:05 pm
     
  • Kris Bryant lands back on IL with rib contusion
    Rockies placed INF/OF Kris Bryant on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to June 3, with a left rib contusion.

    Advice: Bryant has had just 101 plate appearances this season and is slashing .186/.307/.279 with just two homers and 10 RBI. What injuries have done to the 32-year-old’s career is tough to see. There is likely no fantasy value here. Michael Toglai was called up in a corresponding move. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:02 pm

  • Exits starting nine
    Joe is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Dodgers.

    Advice: It's the first time since May 13 that Joe has been absent from the Pirates' starting nine. Rowdy Tellez will occupy first base and Edward Olivares will patrol right field while Joe gets some rest. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:34 am

  • Swipes bag in loss
    Freeman went 1-for-5 with a stolen base and a run against Pittsburgh in a loss Wednesday.

    Advice: Freeman has been much less active on the basepaths this season -- he's attempted just four steals (with three successes) after going 23-for-24 last year. That 2023 performance was likely an aberration, as the 23 thefts were 10 more than his previous career-high mark. Freeman's other numbers are mostly down so far this season as well, but he's still been quite productive with a .294/.397/.476 slash line, seven homers, 17 doubles, 35 RBI and and 36 runs through 63 contests.

  • On bench with lefty starting
    Raley is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Athletics.

    Advice: Raley will join fellow lefty-hitting regulars Dominic Canzone and Josh Rojas on the bench while the Athletics send southpaw JP Sears to the bump. Victor Robles will open the game in Raley's usual spot in left field in what will be the former's first start with the Mariners since he signed with the team Tuesday after being released by the Nationals.

  • Tyler Soderstrom starting at 1B for A’s on THU
    Tyler Soderstrom is starting at first base for the Athletics against the Mariners on Thursday.

    Advice: Soderstrom will hit seventh and play first base with J.D. Davis taking a seat. With Davis hitting just .229 on the year, there’s been a chance for the 22-year-old Soderstrom to carve out more playing time. Unfortunately, he’s not hitting well himself, slashing .174/.309/.304 with a 42 percent strikeout rate. Fantasy managers in deep leagues can keep an eye on Sodestrom to see if he can pick it up and earn more at-bats, but he’s not rosterable in leagues right now. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:00 am
