    • Brent Rooker drives in A’s lone run vs. Astros
      Brent Rooker went 1-for-5 with an RBI in Tuesday’s loss to the Astros.

      Advice: It was an underwhelming night for Rooker and the A’s, as their offense was held to just one run on seven hits before eventually losing in the 10th inning. Rooker’s single in the eighth inning scored Abraham Toro to tie the game and eventually force extra innings, as Rooker has now hit safely in eight straight games. The veteran outfielder is slashing .435/.509/.848 this month and appears to have put his slow start to the season behind him. Rotoworld Today, 8:29 pm

    • Game postponed Tuesday
      Bassitt and the Blue Jays won't play against the Orioles on Tuesday since the game was postponed due to inclement weather.

      Advice: The game will be made up via a traditional doubleheader on July 29. The Blue Jays haven't officially announced their updated pitching plans, but Bassitt seems likely to start Wednesday's series finale with the rest of the rotation being pushed back. Rotowire.com Today, 2:50 pm
       
    • Absence continuing Tuesday
      Turner (illness) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles.

      Advice: The 39-year-old will sit for the third consecutive game as he continues to deal with an illness, which has also afflicted teammates Kevin Kiermaier and George Springer, though Kiermaier is back in the lineup Tuesday. Turner should continue to be considered day-to-day heading into Wednesday's series finale in Baltimore. Rotowire.com Today, 2:27 pm

    • Justin Turner (illness) remains out on Tuesday
      Justin Turner (illness) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday’s contest against the Orioles.

      Advice: Turner remains sidelined for the third straight contest due to illness. The 39-year-old veteran remains day-to-day for now. It’ll be Daniel Vogelbach filling in at designated hitter in his absence. Rotoworld Today, 2:19 pm

    • George Springer (illness) out again on Tuesday
      George Springer (illness) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Orioles.

      Advice: Springer is sitting out for the second straight contest and fourth time in the last five contests due to an ongoing viral illness. It’ll be on-base machine Davis Schneider, who also boasts the fifth-best barrel percentage in baseball this season, taking over the leadoff spot in his continued absence. Rotoworld Today, 2:18 pm

    • Sitting again Tuesday
      Springer (illness) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game at Baltimore.

      Advice: Springer returned to action Sunday after missing two games with an illness, and he's out of the lineup again Tuesday for the second straight day. It's unclear if he's expected to be back in action for Wednesday's series finale. Cavan Biggio is starting in right field versus the Orioles. Rotowire.com Today, 2:15 pm

    • Austin Riley sitting out again Tuesday vs. Cubs
      Austin Riley (side) remains absent from the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Cubs.

      Advice: The Braves received positive news earlier this week when an MRI revealed only left side inflammation rather than an oblique strain. The 27-year-old fantasy stalwart remains day-to-day and appears likely to avoid a trip to the injured list at the moment. He should benefit from Thursday’s off-day giving him additional time to rest and recover, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see him return for Friday’s series opener against the Padres.

    • Remains out Tuesday
      Riley (side) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cubs.

      Advice: Atlanta received good news when an MRI revealed merely inflammation in Riley's left side rather than a strain. However, he is likely still sore and will miss a second straight start. With a scheduled off day coming Thursday, it wouldn't be a surprise to see Atlanta hold Riley out until Friday just to be safe. Zack Short is getting another start at third base Tuesday.

    • Playing outfield in rehab games
      McCormick (hamstring) is scheduled to play in the outfield for the next two games with Double-A Corpus Christi, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: McCormick served as the designated hitter with Triple-A Sugar Land on Sunday in his first rehab appearance, and he'll now progress to playing full games in the outfield. Assuming that goes well, there's a strong chance he'll be activated for the Astros' weekend series against Milwaukee. Rotowire.com Today, 8:59 am
