    • Goes deep twice
      Turner went 2-for-5 with two home runs and four RBI in Friday's win over Atlanta.

      Advice: Turner belted a two-run shot in the fourth inning followed by another in the sixth. He's gone deep five times in 16 games since returning from the injured list, with four of those coming in his last four games. Turner has knocked multiple hits in eight of those 16 games, good for a .338 average. On the year, he's slashing .341/.386/.510 with 21 extra-base hits and 22 RBI through 49 contests.

    • Nicky Lopez plates two as White Sox filet Marlins
      Nicky Lopez went 2-for-3 with a walk, a pair of doubles and two RBI on Friday night, leading the White Sox to a 3-2 victory over the Marlins.

      Advice: Lopez opened the scoring in the ballgame in the second inning with a run-scoring double off of Bryan Hoenig that scored Paul DeJong. He then added a ground-rule double in the fifth inning that plated Eloy Jimenez and would have driven in an additional run had the ball not taken an unfortunate bounce into the crowd. With his two-hit attack, the light-hitting second baseman is now hitting .247/.302/.292 with zero homers, 12 RBI and three stolen bases on the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:11 pm

    • Athletics release veteran infielder Aledmys Díaz
      Athletics released INF Aledmys Díaz.

      Advice: The 33-year-old infielder had been designated for assignment earlier in the week and predictably passed through waivers unclaimed. He’s now free to explore employment opportunities elsewhere if he so chooses. Díaz hit a paltry .103/.133/.103 in 29 at-bats with the Athletics this season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:54 pm

    • Back in action Friday
      Bichette (forearm) will start at shortstop and bat second Friday against the Mariners.

      Advice: Bichette was hit by a pitch during Wednesday's contest and had to sit out Thursday's game as a result, but he seems to be feeling well enough to play Friday. The 26-year-old has been having a down season at the plate, posting a career-worst .613 OPS in 308 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:57 pm
       
    • Not in Friday's lineup
      McKinstry isn't in the Tigers' lineup Friday versus the Reds.

      Advice: McKinstry has gone 0-for-14 over his last five games, so he'll get a chance to regroup Friday while Ryan Kreidler starts at shortstop and bats ninth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:16 pm

    • Dealing with glute tightness
      Smith is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Rays due to glute tightness, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

      Advice: It's the same injury that kept Smith off the field for four games in June, and the hope this time around is that the injury will keep him out of the lineup for just one or two games. Since June 1, the 26-year-old infielder is slashing .319/.407/.511 with four home runs, 12 RBI and an .918 OPS over 94 at-bats. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:11 pm

    • Resting Friday
      Dubon isn't in the Astros' lineup for Friday's game against the Twins, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Dubon will get a breather Friday after going 2-for-4 with an RBI during Thursday's win over the Blue Jays. Yordan Alvarez will take over in left field, moving Yainer Diaz into the DH spot while Cesar Salazar starts behind the plate. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:06 pm

    • Tommy Edman to start rehab assignment on Tuesday
      Tommy Edman (wrist, ankle) will begin a minor league rehab assignment at Double-A Springfield on Tuesday.

      Advice: Edman is set to take live batting practice on Friday and Saturday before heading out to finally begin his minor league rehab assignment. Given the long layoff, he’s probably going to need quite a few games there before he’s deemed ready to join the Cardinals. Fantasy managers shouldn’t expect him back until after the All-Star break.

    • Josh Smith absent from Rangers lineup on Friday
      Josh Smith was held out of Rangers’ starting lineup for Friday night’s matchup against the Rays due to glute tightness.

      Advice: It’s the same issue that sidelined Smith for a couple of games in June, but he’s hopeful that he won’t need to miss more than a day or two this time around. The versatile 26-year-old has been a key cog in the Rangers’ lineup this season, hitting .293/.386/.451 with seven homers, 34 RBI and four stolen bases over 308 plate appearances in his 83 games. Jonathan Ornelas will draw a start at third base in his stead and will bat ninth against Shane Baz and the Rays on Friday night. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:17 pm
