  • Luis Rengifo returns to lineup Tuesday vs. Brewers
    Luis Rengifo (wrist) is back in the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Brewers.

    Advice: Rengifo came off the bench as a pinch-hitter during Monday’s contest and is back in the lineup following a brief absence due to a left wrist contusion. He appears to have avoided serious injury and shouldn’t miss any additional time moving forward. Rotoworld Today, 3:09 pm

  • Back in big leagues
    Mastrobuoni was called up from Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday.

    Advice: Mastrobuoni will return to the major-league roster after being sent down May 20, replacing Mike Tauchman (groin) with the Cubs after Tauchman was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday. Mastrobuoni produced a .264 average with three home runs, 14 RBI, 16 runs scored and four stolen bases over 87 at-bats in 22 games with Iowa since his demotion. Rotowire.com Today, 3:02 pm

  • Back in lineup Tuesday
    Rengifo (wrist) is starting at third base and batting second Tuesday against the Brewers, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: The 27-year-old was absent from Monday's starting nine due to a bruised left wrist, but he entered as a pinch hitter and played a couple innings at third base. Rengifo is batting .286 with six steals through 15 games in June, but he has just one extra-base hit this month and hasn't hit a home run since May 24. Rotowire.com Today, 2:55 pm

  • No longer starting at third
    Crawford will start at shortstop and bat seventh Tuesday versus the Marlins, Lynn Worthy of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

    Advice: Crawford was originally slated to make his first career start at third base, but with Masyn Winn (illness) being a late scratch Tuesday, Crawford will slot in at shortstop, his career-long position. The 37-year-old has appeared in two games in June, going 2-for-5 with two doubles and two runs scored. Rotowire.com Today, 2:47 pm
     
  • Scratched with illness
    Winn was scratched from the Cardinals' lineup ahead of Tuesday's game versus Miami due to illness, Lynn Worthy of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

    Advice: Winn was originally in line to start at shortstop Tuesday, but his absence will move Brandon Crawford from third base to short instead. Brendan Donovan will cover the hot corner as a result, moving Alec Burleson into left field while Dylan Carlson steps in to man right field, batting eighth. Rotowire.com Today, 2:46 pm

  • Masyn Winn scratched on Tuesday due to illness
    Masyn Winn has been scratched from the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Marlins due to illness.

    Advice: Winn delivered the go-ahead homer for St. Louis in the 12th inning of Monday’s extra-inning marathon against the Marlins and has occupied the leadoff spot in six straight contests. It’ll be Brendan Donovan taking over atop the lineup and Brandon Crawford covering at shortstop. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Today, 2:44 pm

  • Sitting versus southpaw
    Wisely is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Cubs.

    Advice: Wisely will head to the bench as the team squares off with southpaw Justin Steele of the Cubs. Nick Ahmed will take over at shortstop and bat seventh versus Chicago. Rotowire.com Today, 2:34 pm

  • Cubs bring back Miles Mastrobuoni on Tuesday
    Cubs recalled INF/OF Miles Mastrobuoni from Triple-A Iowa.

    Advice: Mastrobuoni gets the call to replace an injured Mike Tauchman (groin) on Chicago’s active roster ahead of Tuesday’s game against the Giants. The 28-year-old offers plenty of defensive versatility, but has been a non-factor at the dish for several years at this juncture. He can be safely ignored in all fantasy formats.

  • Not in Tuesday's lineup
    Walls (illness) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game in Minnesota.

    Advice: It's not clear whether Walls remains under the weather or if the Rays had planned to start Jose Caballero at shortstop in this one regardless. Walls has been the club's primary shortstop since coming off the injured list earlier this month. Rotowire.com Today, 1:52 pm
