    • Sitting Saturday
      Jeffers is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Jeffers has gone 0-for-16 with six strikeouts over his last five games, and he is down to .234/.323/.500 over 218 plate appearances this season. Christian Vazquez will start behind home plate Saturday and bat ninth against Pirates right-hander Carmen Mlodzinski. Rotowire.com Today, 11:12 am
       
    • Sitting Saturday
      O'Neill (knee) is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the White Sox, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

      Advice: O'Neill left Friday's 7-2 loss to the White Sox in the third inning due to right knee discomfort. The 28-year-old recently came off the injured list due to inflammation in the same knee. O'Neill is slashing .250/.354/.500 with 11 home runs and 18 RBI over 181 plate appearances this season. Jarren Duran and Bobby Dalbec will start in the outfield corners Saturday, while Ceddanne Rafaela roams center and David Hamilton plays shortstop. Rotowire.com Today, 10:52 am

    • Tyler O’Neill out Saturday with knee discomfort
      Tyler O’Neill (knee) is not in the lineup for Saturday’s showdown against the White Sox.

      Advice: No surprise here after O’Neill was removed from Friday’s contest due to renewed right knee discomfort. The 28-year-old slugger has been plagued by persistent knee issues this season, but has expressed optimism that he’ll avoid a trip to the injured list this time. It seems unlikely he’ll return this weekend, but it’s a positive sign that the Red Sox haven’t sent him back to the injured list. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for the moment.

    • Goes deep Friday
      Mountcastle went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a hit-by-pitch in Friday's 6-3 win over the Rays.

      Advice: Mountcastle has homered three times over four games versus the Rays this season. The first baseman is batting .349 (22-for-63) with five long balls and 13 RBI over his last 16 contests. For the season, Mountcastle has a strong .281/.321/.509 slash line with 11 homers, 31 RBI, 34 runs scored, two stolen bases and 16 doubles over 57 games. He's shown modest growth from last year's .270/.328/.452 slash line, and he's also cut his strikeouts down from 22.8 percent to 21.2 percent year-over-year. Rotowire.com Today, 10:07 am
       
    • Notches 14th save
      Kimbrel worked a perfect ninth inning Friday to record his 14th save of the season in a 6-3 win over the Rays. He didn't walk or strike out a batter.

      Advice: The veteran closer let his defense do the work, getting outs on a flyball, a groundball and a popup in foul territory. Kimbrel hasn't been tagged with an earned run in 10 straight appearances, converting all six of his save chances during that stretch with a 10:0 K:BB as he puts his early season struggles behind him.

    • Tyler O’Neill exits Friday with knee discomfort
      Tyler O’Neill was removed from Friday’s game against the White Sox due to right knee discomfort.

      Advice: O’Neill walked off the field with Boston’s training staff in the third inning of Friday’s contest at Guaranteed Rate Field after experiencing right knee discomfort earlier in the game while catching a routine fly out. The 28-year-old slugger returned earlier this week from the injured list following a nine-game absence due to right knee inflammation. He told reporters afterwards that he’s hopeful this latest incident won’t require another trip to the injured list, but it’s a concerning development that he’s still having knee issues. There should be a decision on his status prior to Saturday’s showdown in Chicago. Rotoworld Today, 4:33 am

    • Chris Bassitt masterful Friday in Bay Area return
      Chris Bassitt struck out seven and allowed one run over eight innings on Friday in a no-decision against the Atletics.

      Advice: Bassit was forced to settle for a no-decision against his former organization in an impressive outing at pitcher-friendly Oakland Coliseum. He gave up only four hits and a pair of walks with a run-scoring ground out from JJ Bleday in the sixth-inning representing the lone tally against him in this one. He generated 15 swinging strikes and finished with a 29 percent CSW. It was a performance that should’ve resulted in a victory, but Toronto’s lineup was only able to muster one run on five hits in a low-scoring tractor pull. He’ll square off against the Brewers on Wednesday in his next outing. Rotoworld Today, 3:43 am
       
    • Goes eight innings in no-decision
      Bassitt allowed a run on four hits and two walks while striking out seven over eight innings in a no-decision versus the Athletics on Friday.

      Advice: Bassitt tamed one of his former teams, but reliever Chad Green gave up a walk-off hit in the ninth inning. In his longest outing of the year, Bassitt threw 71 of 102 pitches for strikes. He's limited opponents to one run or fewer in five of his 13 starts this season, pitching to a 3.80 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 70:28 K:BB through 73.1 innings. The 35-year-old right-hander is projected to make his next start at Milwaukee. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:37 pm
       
    • Ozuna smacks two doubles in loss Friday
      Marcell Ozuna went 2-for-4 with a run scored and two doubles against the Nationals on Friday.

      Advice: On a night when the Braves offense had only four hits against Nationals starter Jake Irvin, Ozuna managed to double off Irvin twice. Ozuna is up to .316 on the season and could be in competition with Shohei Ohtani for the triple crown in the National League if he keeps this up. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:16 pm
