    • Nick Fortes goes 3-for-3, homers in win
      Nick Fortes went 3-for-3 with a three-run homer and three runs scored against the Mets on Friday.

      Advice: The home run was just Fortes’ second in what’s been a disastrous start to the season. He’s had some intriguing batted ball metrics in the past, but this was just his second barrel of the season. He’s hard to trust even in two-catcher formats. Rotoworld 51 minutes ago
       
    • Adley Rutschman scores twice in rout of Mariners
      Adley Rutschman went 2-for-4 with a double, RBI and a pair of runs scored as the Orioles routed the Mariners on Friday evening at Camden Yards.

      Advice: Rutschman singled and scored during the Orioles’ five-run uprising off of Bryce Miller in the first inning. The 26-year-old backstop then plated Gunnar Henderson with an RBI double off of Kirby Snead in the seventh inning and raced around to score on an RBI double off the bat of Austin Hays. He continues to perform as one of the top offensive catchers in the game — slashing .318/.353/.514 with nine homers, 28 RBI and one stolen base. Rotoworld 59 minutes ago
       
    • Exits with dizziness
      D'Arnaud was removed from Friday's game against San Diego due to dizziness.

      Advice: D'Arnaud took a foul ball off his facemask in the fifth inning and did not take the field for the sixth. Atlanta will likely evaluate him for a possible concussion, and an update on his status should come after Friday's contest. Rotowire.com Today, 6:19 pm
       
    • Mitch Garver returns to Mariners’ lineup Friday
      Mitch Garver (back) returned to the Mariners’ starting lineup on Friday night.

      Advice: The 33-year-old slugger sat out each of the team’s last two games due to back spasms. He’s feeling much improved now though and ready to give it a go. He’ll serve as the team’s designated hitter and bat third against Orioles’ southpaw John Means on Friday evening in Baltimore. Rotoworld Today, 2:49 pm
       
    • Yasmani Grandal knocks in three against Cubs
      Yasmani Grandal went 2-for-5 and knocked in three runs in the rout of the Pirates on Friday.

      Advice: Grandal has started four of the last five games over Joey Bart, so it’s not much of a job share behind the plate for the Pirates right now. Grandal has hit .212/.229/.424 but with nine RBI in 10 games since coming off the injured list. Rotoworld Today, 2:24 pm
       
    • Miguel Amaya hits second homer in loss to Pirates
      Miguel Amaya hit just his second homer of the year in the eighth inning Friday to break up the Pirates’ shutout bid in a Cubs loss.

      Advice: Amaya’s homer projected at 374 feet and would have gone out of 10 ballparks, according to Statcast. In spite of Amaya’s struggles offensively — he’s batting .184/.248/.297 — the Cubs have continued to give him most of the starts behind the plate. Yan Gomes has gotten the nod in just one of the team’s last six games. Rotoworld Today, 2:24 pm
       
    • Back in lineup
      Garver (back) is batting third and is the designated hitter for Friday's game against Baltimore.

      Advice: Garver was scratched Tuesday with back spasms and was forced to miss Wednesday's contest due to the issue. However, he'll be back in action for Friday's series opener against the Orioles. In May, Garver is batting .243 with two homers across 45 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 1:10 pm
       
    • Langeliers back in the lineup Friday
      Shea Langeliers is back in the Athletics lineup, batting fourth against the Royals on Friday.

      Advice: Langeliers had a routine day off on Thursday night against the Astros, but he’s back in the lineup on Friday. His average is just .218, but he has nine home runs and 24 RBI in 133 at-bats this season. Rotoworld Today, 1:01 pm
       
    • Out of starting lineup versus lefty
      Soderstrom is not in the starting lineup for Friday's matchup against the Royals.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Soderstrom will start from the bench as the Athletics take on lefty Cole Ragans. The 22-year-old has started in six of Oakland's last eight games, though J.D. Davis will take the field at first base Friday. Rotowire.com Today, 12:38 pm
