  • Anthony Rendon (hamstring) nears baseball activities
    Angels manager Ron Washington told reporters Anthony Rendon (hamstring) could resume light baseball activities this week.

    Advice: Rendon has been out since late April with a partially-torn left hamstring and remains without a definitive timetable to return. The 33-year-old veteran might be ready to return at some point in the second half of the season. Rotoworld 35 minutes ago

  • Luis Arraez returns to lineup Tuesday vs. Angels
    Luis Arraez (shoulder) is back in the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Angels.

    Advice: Arraez is back at designated hitter and leading off on Tuesday night in Los Angeles following a brief one-game absence due to a relatively minor shoulder issue. The 27-year-old contact-oriented infielder has been excellent since arriving in San Diego, batting .391 (43-for-110) with one homer and three steals across 26 contests. Rotoworld Today, 3:50 pm

  • Rejoining lineup Tuesday
    Arraez (shoulder/neck) is batting leadoff as the designated hitter Tuesday against the Angels.

    Advice: The 27-year-old sat out Monday's contest due to the shoulder/neck injury he suffered on a slide Sunday, and he'll be eased back into the lineup Tuesday in a non-defensive capacity. Arraez is in the midst of an eight-game hit streak, during which he's batting .375 with no extra-base hits, five RBI and five runs. Rotowire.com Today, 3:38 pm

  • Out of lineup Tuesday
    Urshela is not in the Tigers' lineup Tuesday versus the Rangers.

    Advice: Urshela has six hits in the five games since he was last not in the lineup. A couple of those six hits cleared the wall for home runs, his first two of the season. Mark Canha will start at first for Urshela on Tuesday and Justyn-Henry Malloy will start as the DH. Rotowire.com Today, 3:29 pm

  • Astros recall Trey Cabbage on Tuesday
    Astros recalled OF Trey Cabbage from Triple-A Sugar Land.

    Advice: Cabbage provides Houston with a little more of an offensive threat off the bench than Grae Kessinger and also represents extra outfield insurance with Kyle Tucker dealing with a shin contusion. The 27-year-old has omnipresent contact issues, but he certainly can do some damage when he connects. Rotoworld Today, 2:40 pm

  • Astros option Grae Kessinger to Triple-A
    Astros optioned INF Grae Kessinger to Triple-A Sugar Land.

    Advice: Kessinger has played sparingly this season for Houston in a bench role, going 0-for-11 with five strikeouts in 11 contests. The 26-year-old heads back to the minors with Trey Cabbage coming back up to the big leagues. Rotoworld Today, 2:38 pm

  • Kris Bryant remains out Tuesday with rib soreness
    Kris Bryant (rib) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Reds.

    Advice: Bryant will sit out his second consecutive contest due to lingering rib soreness stemming from a twisting catch during the club’s previous series against the Dodgers. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Today, 2:32 pm

  • Joey Ortiz leading off again Tuesday vs. Phillies
    Joey Ortiz is leading off on Tuesday against the Phillies.

    Advice: Ortiz has been bumped up to the top spot in Milwaukee’s lineup on several occasions over the last few weeks as his breakthrough campaign continues. The 25-year-old rookie infielder is batting .302 (29-for-96) with four homers and two steals over his last 30 games. Perhaps more impressive is the fact that he’s walked more times (16) than he’s struck out (15) during that span. Rotoworld Today, 1:26 pm
     
  • Nathaniel Lowe returns to lineup Tuesday vs. Tigers
    Nathaniel Lowe is back in the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Tigers.

    Advice: Lowe is back at first base and batting fifth for the first time in three contests as he got an extended break to reset mentally. The 28-year-old slugger is batting .256 (34-for-133) with two homers and one steal in 39 games since making his season debut back in late April. Rotoworld Today, 1:21 pm
