  • Gets breather Wednesday
    Lopez is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.

    Advice: Lopez's streak of six consecutive starts will come to an end Wednesday as White Sox manager Pedro Grifol gives the second baseman the afternoon off in a day game after a night game. Braden Shewmake will spell Lopez at the keystone, while designated hitter Robbie Grossman takes over as the White Sox's leadoff hitter. Rotowire.com 10 minutes ago

  • Heads to bench Wednesday
    Ortiz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

    Advice: Ortiz looks to be getting some routine maintenance for the day game after a night game, with Oliver Dunn spelling him at third base. The rookie had started at third base or second base in each of the past five games, reaching base at a .476 clip while recording four extra-base hits (one home run, three doubles) and a stolen base during that stretch.

  • Returns to bench role
    Farmer is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

    Advice: Farmer will hit the bench for Wednesday's series finale after he had started in each of the last five games (three at second base, two at third base). The platoon-happy Twins should continue to find room for the righty-hitting Farmer in the lineup when southpaws are on the mound for the opposition, but Farmer's opportunities at third base will likely become more scarce moving forward. Carlos Correa returned from the 10-day injured list Monday to take back an everyday role at shortstop, and Edouard Julien and Willi Castro look first in line to start at second and third base, respectively, when the Twins oppose righties.

  • Isaac Paredes not in lineup for Rays on Wed.
    Isaac Paredes is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday’s matchup against the Brewers.

    Advice: The 25-year-old has been one of the few bright spots through the first month of the season for Tampa Bay, but he’ll get some rest on Wednesday. Paredes leads the team in with seven home runs and 17 RBI in his 29 games played this season. No other player on the roster has more than three round trippers. Rotoworld 27 minutes ago

  • On bench in second straight
    Miranda is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

    Advice: Miranda and Kyle Farmer had recently been part of a timeshare at third base, but both could see their playing time against right-handed pitching take a hit moving forward after shortstop Carlos Correa (intercostal) was reinstated from the injured list Monday. With Correa back in the fold, Willi Castro -- who had been serving as the primary shortstop while Correa was on the shelf -- could end up seeing the bulk of the starts at the hot corner until Royce Lewis (quadricep) is ready to return from the 10-day IL.

  • Receives Wednesday off
    Paredes is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers.

    Advice: Paredes will exit the lineup for the first time since April 18, ending a stretch of 11 consecutive starts during which he posted an .848 OPS. Curtis Mead will spell Paredes at third base and will bat ninth. Rotowire.com 46 minutes ago

  • Absent from lineup
    Biggio is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

    Advice: Biggio had started each of the last five contests for the Blue Jays but will begin this one on the bench. Toronto is going with Davis Scheider at second base and Addison Barger in left field. Rotowire.com 54 minutes ago

  • Getting breather Wednesday
    Turner is out of the lineup for Wednesday's tilt versus the Royals.

    Advice: It's a routine maintenance day for Turner, who hit two home runs in the series opener Monday before going hitless Tuesday. Daniel Vogelbach will serve as the designated hitter Wednesday and also occupy the cleanup spot. Rotowire.com 59 minutes ago

  • Three hits vs. Miami
    McMahon went 3-for-5 with two doubles, two RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 7-6 loss to the Marlins.

    Advice: McMahon got the Rockies on the board with an RBI single in the first inning before driving in a second run with a double in the 10th. The 29-year-old McMahon now has hits in six straight games, going 8-for-23 with two doubles and two home runs in that span, on the heels of a 1-for-14 stretch. His slash line is up to .321/.397/.495 on the season with four homers, 18 RBI and 12 runs scored. Rotowire.com Today, 8:03 am
