  • Won't start Sunday
    Kwan (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

    Advice: Kwan is out of the lineup for just the second time all season, with his absence coming as no surprise after he was removed from Saturday's 7-1 win left hamstring tightness. The 26-year-old is slated to undergo an MRI on Sunday, but the Guardians have yet to provide an update on the findings from those tests. Until the team offers more clarity on his status, Kwan should be viewed as day-to-day heading into Cleveland's upcoming seven-game week. Rotowire.com 5 minutes ago

  • Not in Sunday's lineup
    Rortvedt is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

    Advice: Rortvedt started four of the previous five games but will receive Sunday off after he went 3-for-12 with four strikeouts during that stretch. Alex Jackson will step in behind the plate to catch for Ryan Pepiot on Sunday. Rotowire.com 7 minutes ago
     
  • Gaining traction in everyday lineup
    Calhoun will serve as the Angels' designated hitter and cleanup batter in Sunday's game against the Guardians.

    Advice: Calhoun will stick in the starting nine for the third straight game after going 4-for-8 with two doubles and one run to begin his tenure with the Angels. At least while Miguel Sano (knee) and Anthony Rendon (hamstring) are on the injured list, the lefty-hitting Calhoun should be in store for regular starts as the Angels' DH against right-handed pitching.

  • Stepping out of lineup
    Ramirez is not in the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Mets.

    Advice: Ramirez went 3-for-8 with a run and three strikeouts while starting the first two games of the series but will take a seat for Sunday's finale. Amed Rosario will receive a turn at designated hitter while Richie Palacios starts at the keystone. Rotowire.com 11 minutes ago
     
  • Colin Selby sent to Triple-A by KC on Sunday
    Royals optioned RHP Colin Selby to Triple-A Omaha.

    Advice: Selby was up for a little under a week, and the Royals will send him back to Omaha to make room for Daniel Lynch on the active roster. Selby will likely be back in a low-leverage role at some point in 2024. Rotoworld 12 minutes ago
     
  • 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 13 minutes ago
     
  • Hitless in return
    Siri (thigh) went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts during Saturday's 3-1 win against the Mets.

    Advice: The 28-year-old was unavailable the previous two games while serving a suspension but was back in center field Saturday for the Rays. The thigh injury Siri suffered on a hit-by-pitch Tuesday also no longer seems to be a concern. He's back in center field for Sunday's series finale, batting ninth. Rotowire.com 14 minutes ago
     
  • Royals recall Daniel Lynch from Triple-A Omaha
    Royals recalled LHP Daniel Lynch from Triple-A Omaha.

    Advice: Lynch is going to start Sunday’s game against the Rangers. In six starts with Omaha, the left-hander registered a 6.86 ERA and 22/9 K/BB over 27/2 innings. Lynch is a former top prospect, but his lack of consistent success makes him an unworthy fantasy target at this time. Rotoworld 15 minutes ago
     
  • Mashes eighth homer
    Ohtani went 3-for-5 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's win over Atlanta.

    Advice: Ohtani kicked off the bottom of the third with a leadoff home run, jumping on a hanging four-seamer from Bryce Elder to give the Dodgers a 3-0 lead. The superstar slugger also drove in a second run on a single in the fourth before finishing the contest with three hits for the fourth time this season. Ohtani has now driven in at least one run in eight of his last 11 games and extended his hitting streak to four games with Saturday's performance. Rotowire.com 18 minutes ago
