    • Decision coming on role
      Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Tuesday that the team would like to declare a set role for Liberatore in the coming days, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

      Advice: Liberatore began the season in the bullpen and pitched well, collecting a 2.76 ERA and 10:8 K:BB over 16.1 innings. Two of his last three appearances have been starts as he fills in for the injured Steven Matz (back) and the results have been mixed. Matz looks to be several weeks away from a return, so the Cards could either commit to Liberatore filling that role or shifting him back to the bullpen where he's had success.

    • Brock Stewart receives injection for shoulder
      Brock Stewart received a PRP injection to help deal with the tendinitis in his shoulder.

      Advice: Stewart hasn’t resumed throwing since going on the IL on May 3, so it looks like he’ll be sidelined for at least another couple of weeks. Rotoworld 9 minutes ago
       
    • Nearing live batting practice
      Devenski (knee) is expected to face hitters in live batting practice in the near future, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Devenski has been throwing regular bullpen sessions and recovered well from each. He was placed on the injured list in late April and will likely be back before the close of May. Rotowire.com 22 minutes ago
       
    • Pitches well in return
      Fairbanks struck out two and didn't allow a baserunner across a scoreless inning Tuesday against the Red Sox.

      Advice: Fairbanks was briefly sidelined due to a cut on his throwing hand, but he returned to pitch the ninth inning of a tied game Tuesday. He showed no ill effects from the injury and has turned in two scoreless outings since returning from a nerve issue in his arm. Rotowire.com 35 minutes ago
       
    • Dealing with cracked nail
      Chapman is dealing with a cracked nail on his throwing hand, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: The Pirates haven't officially announced whether Chapman is available for games, but he hasn't appeared since Sunday when the issue developed. He played catch Tuesday and is healing well, so it appears that he'll be able to avoid a trip to the injured list. Rotowire.com 39 minutes ago
       
    • Survives wild outing
      Kopech allowed two walks and struck out one across a scoreless ninth inning in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Nationals.

      Advice: Kopech entered the game in the ninth inning with a four-run lead and successfully closed out the game. It was his first appearance since May 9, and he struggled with his control, walking a pair and also throwing a pair of wild pitches. Despite being shaky in this appearance, Kopech has now allowed only one earned across his last 7.1 innings. Rotowire.com 54 minutes ago
       
    • Collects save Tuesday
      Kinley picked up the save Tuesday in a 6-3 win over the Padres after pitching a clean ninth inning.

      Advice: Kinley was called upon for the save opportunity with both Jalen Beeks and Justin Lawrence unavailable and sent down the Padres 9-1-2 hitters in order. He's now working on 5.2 consecutive scoreless innings and has picked up a win, a hold and a save in each of his last three appearances. Kinley still owns an 8.44 ERA, 2.00 WHIP and 14:11 K:BB in 16 innings after some pretty rough outings earlier in the year. Rotowire.com Today, 6:41 am
       
    • Provides needed innings
      Rodriguez threw four scoreless innings of relief in Tuesday's 7-4 loss to the Guardians.

      Advice: Starter Jack Leiter was bounced after 1.2 innings, and Texas needed its 29th-ranked bullpen (5.14 ERA) to get through the day. And they got it from Jonathan Hernandez (2.1 scoreless innings) and Rodriguez, who faced the minimum over four innings -- he hit a batter but followed it with a double-play.

    • Ronel Blanco plans to appeal 10-game suspension
      Ronel Blanco told reporters late Tuesday that he plans to appeal his automatic 10-game suspension.

      Advice: Blanco was ejected by third base umpire Laz Diaz during Tuesday’s start against the Athletics, and his glove was confiscated, following a foreign substance check at the outset of the fourth inning. Astros manager Joe Espada told reporters afterwards that Blanco had a mixture of rosin and sweat on his glove hand, which is illegal under league rules. The 30-year-old righty has denied using an illegal substance, but is still facing an automatic 10-game suspension under league rules, which he plans to appeal. There should be a resolution on the matter at some point later this week. Rotoworld Today, 3:20 am
