    • Held out of Sunday's lineup
      Langford (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at Kansas City.

      Advice: The 22-year-old departed Saturday's contest due to right hamstring tightness and will miss at least one start. Corey Seager will serve as the DH while Langford sits on Sunday, as Josh Smith starts at shortstop and Ezequiel Duran at third base. Rotowire.com Today, 8:52 am

    • Wyatt Langford (leg) not in lineup Sunday vs. KC
      Wyatt Langford (leg) is not in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Royals.

      Advice: Langford left Saturday’s game with a leg injury that occured trying to beat out a ground ball. The 22-year-old rookie will sit Sunday with Corey Seager operating as the designated hitter and Josh Smith playing shortstop. Rotoworld Today, 8:33 am

    • Logan O’Hoppe out Sunday with hand contusion
      Logan O’Hoppe (hand) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday’s game against the Guardians.

      Advice: O’Hoppe is going to miss at least one more game after he was hit with a foul ball during Saturday’s contest against Cleveland and he was forced to exit. Matt Thaiss gets the start behind the plate and will hit seventh. O’Hoppe should be considered day-to-day. Rotoworld Today, 7:58 am
    • Not starting Sunday
      O'Hoppe (hand) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

      Advice: As expected, O'Hoppe will be on the bench for the day game to close out the series in Cleveland after he exited Saturday's 7-1 loss with a right hand contusion. Matt Thaiss will step in behind the plate for O'Hoppe, who should be viewed as day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener in Pittsburgh. Rotowire.com Today, 7:50 am
    • Escapes with sixth save
      Neris allowed one run on two hits and one walk but recorded the final three outs of Saturday's game against the Brewers to earn his sixth save of the season. He struck out one batter.

      Advice: Neris put the tying run in scoring position with just one out, but he then buckled down and retired Tyler Black and Willy Adames to preserve the win for starter Jameson Taillon. With six saves in as many attempts since April 20, and with Adbert Alzolay struggling to get on track in lower-leverage situations, Neris appears to be shoring up his spot in the ninth inning under manager Craig Counsell.

    • Brilliant in no-decision
      Jones did not factor into the decision in Saturday's win against the Rockies. He allowed one hit and no walks while striking out 10 over seven scoreless innings.

      Advice: The 22-year-old right-hander bounced back from a rather modest showing his last time out, matching his career high with 10 strikeouts. Jones got 17 swings and misses on 96 pitches and touched 100 mph with his heater a couple times. While he has a losing record at 2-3, Jones is off to a historically great start to his career. He became the first pitcher in Pirates history with an outing consisting of seven shutout innings, one hit or fewer allowed, 10 strikeouts and zero walks Saturday, and per MLB's Sarah Langs, Jones is the first pitcher since at least 1901 with 50-plus strikeouts and five or fewer walks in his first seven career starts.

    • Removed with wrist injury Saturday
      Ruiz suffered a wrist injury on a diving catch in the sixth inning of Saturday's win over the Marlins and was removed from the game, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Ruiz appeared to hurt his glove hand and remained down for a brief time following the catch, cradling his left wrist as he exited the field with team trainers. Seth Brown replaced him in left field, and Ruiz could well be headed for a day off in Sunday's series finale, at minimum. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:31 pm

    • Nails down 11th save
      Holmes gave up a hit and struck out two in 1.1 scoreless innings Saturday to record his 11th save of the season in a 5-3 win over the Tigers.

      Advice: The right-hander is tied with the Cardinals' Ryan Helsley for the league lead in saves. Holmes kept his ERA a pristine 0.00 with Saturday's performance, although he did give up three unearned runs in his one blown save, and through 15 innings he's delivered a 0.92 WHIP and 18:1 K:BB.

    • Esteury Ruiz leaves game with left wrist injury
      Esteury Ruiz was removed from Saturday night’s lopsided victory over the Marlins with a left wrist injury.

      Advice: The 25-year-old speedster suffered the injury while making a tremendous diving catch in left field. Fortunately, it appears to be only a minor issue and the A’s are considering him day-to-day. Ruiz had been 1-for-3 with a run scored and an RBI prior to departing. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:59 pm
