    • Kyle Tucker (shin) absent from Tuesday’s lineup
      Kyle Tucker (shin) is absent from the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Cardinals.

      Advice: The encouraging development here for fantasy managers is that X-rays came back negative for any fractures and Tucker hasn’t been placed on the injured list yet following an early exit from Monday’s series opener after fouling a ball off his right shin. It’ll be Mauricio Dubón taking over in right field on Tuesday evening in his absence. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for the moment. Rotoworld Today, 1:29 pm

    • Out Tuesday, still DTD
      Tucker (lower leg) isn't part of the Astros starting lineup Tuesday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Tucker will get the day off after fouling a ball off his right shin Monday night. While X-rays came back negative and manager Joe Espada said Tucker is "feeling better", the outfielder will continue to have his leg examined to ensure that he's merely dealing with a bruise. The Astros could opt to sit Tucker on Wednesday considering it has a team day off Thursday. Rotowire.com Today, 12:48 pm

    • Absent from lineup
      Jeffers is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Yankees.

      Advice: It looks to be a routine day off for Jeffers, who is just two off his career high with 12 home runs this season. Christian Vazquez will do the catching for Bailey Ober on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 12:23 pm
       
    • Homers twice in loss
      Gorman went 2-for-3 with two solo home runs in a 7-4 loss to the Astros on Monday.

      Advice: Gorman hit solo home runs off Justin Verlander in the first and fifth innings and added a walk in the third. Gorman has been on an absolute binge in his past 10 games, tallying five multi-hit efforts, six home runs and 12 RBI since May 21. On the season, Gorman is now slashing .230/.318/.494 and leads all second basemen in home runs with 13. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:01 pm

    • Strikes out eight in no-decision
      Gibson did not factor into the decision in Monday's loss to the Astros, allowing three runs on five hits and three walks with eight strikeouts over 5.2 innings.

      Advice: Gibson allowed a two-run home run to Yordan Alvarez in the third inning and was pulled with a 4-3 lead in the sixth after allowing a run and loading the bases. Andrew Kittredge was able to get out of the jam, but the Astros later rallied for four runs in the eighth. Despite faltering late, Gibson has now pitched into the sixth inning in 10 of his 12 starts this season. In those 12 games, Gibson has posted a 3.69 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 60:28 K:BB. He tentatively lines up for a home matchup against the Rockies on Saturday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:59 pm
       
    • Gorman blasts two home runs Monday
      Nolan Gorman went 2-for-3 with a walk and two solo home runs against the Astros on Monday.

      Advice: The two home runs give Gorman 13 on the season. He’s now hit three home runs in his last two games. Gorman isn’t going to provide a good average. He’s hitting .230 and his career average is .230. Gorman can hit the stuffing out of the ball, though. He had 27 home runs in 119 games last year and is on pace to push for 30 home runs this year.

    • Avoids significant injury
      Tucker has been diagnosed with a bruised right shin and X-rays on the area came back negative, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.

      Advice: Tucker appeared to be in serious pain after fouling a ball off his shin during Monday's game against the Cardinals, but he seems to have escaped a significant injury. He'll be considered day-to-day and will likely be re-evaluated again Tuesday morning to determine his availability for the rest of the week. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:26 pm

    • Kyle Tucker day-to-day with shin contusion
      Kyle Tucker is day-to-day after being diagnosed with a right shin contusion.

      Advice: X-rays were negative after Tucker fouled a pitch off his leg tonight. If he can’t go Tuesday, it increases the chances that Chas McCormick will get a start. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:26 pm

    • Sharp in no-decision
      Eovaldi did not factor into the decision in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Tigers, allowing one run on three hits and no walks with seven strikeouts over 5.2 innings.

      Advice: Eovaldi allowed a solo home run to Jake Rogers in the third inning but was otherwise fantastic, leaving the game in a 1-1 tie with two outs in the sixth. Eovaldi was pulled just shy of a quality start at 71 pitches, as he is getting eased back in after returning from the injured list (groin) May 28. Through nine starts, Eovaldi now owns a 2.70 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 53:19 K:BB and will aim to continue building up his pitch count against the Giants this weekend. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:11 pm
