    • Jarred Kelenic out Thursday due to wrist issue
      Jarred Kelenic (wrist) is absent from the lineup for Thursday’s series opener against the Nationals.

      Advice: Kelenic jammed his right wrist making a diving catch during the ninth inning of Wednesday’s showdown at Fenway Park and will sit out Thursday’s series opener against the Nationals for some extra rest. The 24-year-old corner outfielder underwent precautionary X-rays that came back negative for any fractures, so he’s unlikely to wind up missing more than a handful of games. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:41 pm
       
    • Returns to lineup Thursday
      Winn (back) will play shortstop and bat leadoff in Thursday's game versus the Rockies.

      Advice: Winn was absent from the Cardinals' lineup Wednesday in Houston as he battles a nagging back issue. It's something he's been managing off and on all season but hasn't seemed to affect him lately, as the rookie shortstop is slashing .370/.400/.575 over his last 20 contests.

    • Eddie Rosario gets a day off on Thursday
      Eddie Rosario is not in the Nationals’ lineup on Thursday against the Braves.

      Advice: Rosario had started four of the last five games but will take a seat with Lane Thomas moving to right field and Joey Meneses entering the lineup at DH. Since Thomas has returned from the IL, Meneses and Rosario have shared playing time, with Rosario starting about two-thirds of the games. Meanwhile, Jacob Young has been playing almost every day in center field, which gives him some fantasy value with his speed. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:51 pm
       
    • Not starting Thursday
      Rosario isn't in the Nationals' lineup for Thursday's game against Atlanta.

      Advice: Although the Nationals will be matched up against right-hander Reynaldo Lopez on Thursday, Rosario will take a seat after going 4-for-19 with an RBI and two runs scored across his last five games. His absence will allow Jesse Winker to start in left field while Joey Meneses serves as Washington's designated hitter. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:46 pm
       
    • Held out Thursday
      Kelenic (wrist) isn't in Atlanta's lineup for Thursday's game against the Nationals.

      Advice: Kelenic made an early exit from Wednesday's contest after injuring his right wrist on a diving catch in the sixth inning. Initial X-rays came back clean immediately after the game, but Atlanta will err on the side of caution and keep him out for Thursday's series opener. Adam Duvall, Michael Harris and Brian Anderson will start across the outfield with Kelenic out. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:39 pm
       
    • Cowser starts in CF over Mullins again for Orioles
      Colton Cowser will start in center field and bat ninth for the Orioles on Thursday against the Blue Jays.

      Advice: With left-hander Yusei Kikuchi on the mound for the Blue Jays, the Orioles have opted to bench Cedric Mullins and let Cowser start in center field. It’s now the fourth time in the last six games that Cowser has started in center field, and the fact that both Cowser and Mullins hit left-handed suggests that Baltimore might have more confidence in the rookie right now. Austin Hays is also starting in left field for the fourth time in the last five games, including three games against right-handed pitchers. This has the makings of Cedric Mullins being moved to more of a bench role amidst his struggles. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:36 am
       
    • Homers in third straight contest
      Diaz went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Cardinals.

      Advice: Diaz got Houston on the board in the bottom of the fifth inning, smacking a solo shot off Miles Mikolas the opposite way to cut the Astros deficit to 3-1. It's the third straight game with a home run for Diaz, who's up to six long balls on the season. The 25-year-old backstop is now slashing .250/.278/.397 with 29 RBI and 21 runs scored across 216 plate appearances this year. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:18 am
       
    • Provides winning hit
      Steer went 1-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Wednesday's 12-7 win over the Rockies.

      Advice: Steer's two-run shot in the top of the ninth plated the tying and go-ahead runs for the Reds, who swept the Rockies in Colorado for the first time since 2012. He's cranked it up to start the new month with hits in five straight games, going 11-for-23 with a home run, two doubles and five RBI. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:19 am

    • Handed loss Wednesday
      Kimbrel (4-2) allowed an unearned run on two hits over one-third of an inning, taking the loss Wednesday versus the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Isiah Kiner-Falefa delivered a walk-off single in the ninth inning to hand Kimbrel his first loss since April 28. This also ended Kimbrel's scoreless streak at 7.2 innings, though he hasn't given up an earned run since May 8. The closer has a 2.95 ERA, 1.03 WHIP, 31:9 K:BB and 13 saves in 16 chances through 21.1 innings this season. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 11:13 pm
