  • Getting day off versus lefty
    Lowe is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Lowe will hit the bench for the series finale while Washington sends southpaw Patrick Corbin to the hill. Jose Caballero checks in at second base for Lowe. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:26 am
     
  • Homers in return to lineup
    Lowe went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Saturday in a loss to the Nationals.

    Advice: Lowe returned to the starting lineup after logging just a single pinch-hit appearance over Tampa Bay's previous five games due to a broken toe. The second baseman didn't seem to have any rust, as he belted a 405-foot solo shot in his first at-bat of the contest for what turned out to be the Rays' only run. Lowe has hit five homers over 19 games in June after going deep just once across his first 18 contests of the campaign. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:19 pm
     
  • Massey belts seventh home run in loss Saturday
    Michael Massey went 2-for-3 with a solo home run against the Guardians on Saturday.

    Advice: Massey’s home run was his seventh of the season. He’s quietly been one of the best hitters for the Royals this year. His home run off Tanner Bibee gave the Royals a 2-1 lead in the second inning, but it wouldn’t last. Massey is hitting .293 with an .843 OPS and 24 RBI in 116 at-bats with Kansas City this year.

  • Lowe homers in return to lineup Saturday
    Brandon Lowe went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and a walk against the Nationals on Saturday.



    Advice: Lowe’s home run was his sixth of the season. It was certainly good to see him do something productive in his first game back in the Rays’ lineup since breaking his pinkie toe. With Lowe, you have to worry about when the next injury might come. He’s a decent power option in the middle infield as long as he’s playing. Lowe has a .218 average .756 OPS with 23 RBI on the season.

For the month of June, Lowe is slashing .254/.324/.476 with four home runs and 14 RBI over 63 at-bats. Rotowire.com Saturday, 9:26 am
     
  • Not in Friday's lineup
    Massey is absent from the lineup for Friday's game against the Guardians.

    Advice: Massey was hit by a pitch in Thursday's game, so it's possible he's a bit sore. Salvador Perez will be the Royals' designated hitter while Freddy Fermin does the catching. Rotowire.com Friday, 12:59 pm
     
  • Exits starting nine
    Schneider is absent from the lineup for Friday's game against the Yankees.
