    • Phillies acquire Kennedy, option him to Triple-A
      Phillies acquired INF Buddy Kennedy from the Tigers for cash considerations.

      Advice: Kennedy was traded one day after clearing waivers and being sent outright to Triple-A. Now he’ll be in Triple-A Lehigh Valley with the Phillies organization. Kennedy will serve as infield depth and take the recently suspended Jose Rodriguez’ spot on the 40-man roster. Rotoworld Today, 9:11 am
       
    • Traded to Phillies
      The Phillies acquired Kennedy from the Tigers on Friday in exchange for cash considerations and optioned him to Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

      Advice: The official transactions log on MLB.com had listed Kennedy as having been outrighted by the Tigers after clearing waivers, but that was erroneous and has since been deleted. Instead, he's headed to Lehigh Valley, where he will give the Phillies some infield depth. Kennedy has slashed .205/.294/.316 in 46 games over parts of three seasons in the majors.

    • Outrighted to Triple-A
      The Tigers outrighted Kennedy to Triple-A Toledo on Thursday after he cleared waivers.

      Advice: Kennedy could elect free agency if he wants, but it's not clear at this point whether he will do so. If he doesn't he'll join Toledo where he will represent infield depth for the Tigers. Rotowire.com Today, 7:55 am
       
    • Steals base, logs three hits
      Rojas went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a stolen base during Thursday's 11-7 win over the Pirates.

      Advice: Rojas generated three or more hits for the second time this season, with the other such performance happening May 29 against the Mets. He also swiped his third bag of the campaign, taking second base off Bailey Falter and Henry Davis in the first inning. Overall, Rojas is slashing .287/.343/.447 with a career-best 7.8 percent K rate. Rotowire.com Today, 7:07 am

    • Will serve as 27th man
      Baty will be recalled from Triple-A Syracuse to serve as the 27th man during this weekend's series in London versus the Phillies, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

      Advice: Baty was optioned to Syracuse a week ago following a slow start but has gone 3-for-10 with two home runs in his first two games back in the minors. He will likely operate in a reserve role for the two games in London before being sent back down early next week. Baty also revealed that the plan is for him to get some game reps at second base when he goes back to Syracuse, per Puma. Rotowire.com Today, 6:24 am
       
    • Mets to activate Baty as 27th man in London
      The Mets will activate 3B Brett Baty as the 27th man for the London series, according to manager Carlos Mendoza.

      Advice: Baty was sent down last week after losing the third base job. He’ll serve as an extra bat off the bench for the next two games before heading back to the minors. Rotoworld Today, 6:02 am
       
    • Serves as DH on rehab assignment
      Perdomo started at designated hitter and went 1-for-4 with an RBI for Triple-A Reno on Thursday.

      Advice: Perdomo, who played seven innings at shortstop Wednesday, was in the lineup for a second straight day but got replaced by a pinch hitter after eight innings. Perdomo will continue his rehab assignment through the weekend for Reno and could rejoin the Diamondbacks next week. Arizona begins a homestand Tuesday against the Angels. Rotowire.com Today, 3:57 am

    • Lifts fifth homer
      Suarez went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Padres.

      Advice: The homer was Suarez's second hit over six games in June, though both knocks have gone for extra bases. The third baseman hasn't hit for average well in the last five years, but his .202 mark this season is poor even by his usual standard. He's added a .592 OPS, five homers, 28 RBI, 24 runs scored and two stolen bases through 62 contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:00 pm
       
    • Considers himself ahead of schedule
      Rendon (hamstring) resumed baseball activities this week and said Wednesday that he thinks he's ahead of schedule in progressing toward a return, per MLB.com.

      Advice: Rendon has been out since April 20 due to a left hamstring strain, but he recently began ramping up his activity by throwing and taking swings in a batting cage. The third baseman will next progress to jogging Saturday, which will be a significant test of the injured hamstring. While Rendon remains weeks away from a return, he indicated that he considers himself ahead of schedule, explaining, "I'm trying to push it each and every day. Let my body tell me that it's painful, it hurts or it's not ready. So we'll get back as soon as possible." Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:50 pm
