    • Not feeling well
      Springer is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Twins due to an illness, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

      Advice: Davis Schneider is leading off and starting in left field Friday, and manager John Schneider said "we'll see" regarding the leadoff spot moving forward. Springer has hit there in all 35 of his starts the season, but his .206/.276/.298 slash line could soon prompt a move down the lineup. Rotowire.com 47 minutes ago

    • Out of lineup Friday
      Springer is not in the starting lineup for Friday's outing against the Twins.

      Advice: Spring will get his first break since April 30 after he went 5-for-27 with one RBI in six games during that stretch. Cavan Biggio will take right field and bat seventh against Minnesota in place of Springer. Rotowire.com Today, 12:10 pm

    • Records four-out save
      Hader earned a save against the Yankees on Thursday, allowing one hit and striking out one batter over 1.1 scoreless innings.

      Advice: Hader was called upon with two outs and a runner on first with Houston protecting a one-run lead in the bottom of the eighth inning. He got Anthony Rizzo to pop out to end the frame, then completed the save with a scoreless ninth despite allowing a leadoff single. It was just the second time this season Hader was asked to get more than three outs, though he kept his workload relatively light by throwing 14 of his 18 pitches for strikes. The veteran closer's 5.63 ERA so far is well below his career standard, but he has converted four of his five save chances and has 25 punchouts over 16 frames.

    • Josh Hader notches four-out save against Yankees
      Josh Hader recorded a four-out save on Thursday against the Yankees.

      Advice: Hader came on to record the final out of the eighth inning before heading back out to spin a scoreless ninth inning to collect his fourth save of the season. The 30-year-old lefty has converted four of five save chances in his Astros debut so far to go along with a bloated 5.63 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 25/7 K/BB ratio across 16 innings (16 appearances). There’s zero reason for concern here moving forward as he continues to miss bats at an elite rate. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:05 pm
       
    • Ippei Mizuhara pleads guilty to multiple charges
      Shohei Ohtani’s former interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara is pleading guilty to multiple charges including bank fraud and subscribing to a false tax return, according to the Associated Press.

      Advice: Mizuhara has agreed to plead guilty to bank and tax fraud in a case where federal prosecutors allege he stole nearly $17 million from Ohtani to pay off sports gambling debts to an illegal bookmaking operation. Mizuhara will enter his guilty plea in the coming weeks and is set to be arraigned May 14, bringing an end to one of the more bizarre sagas in baseball history. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:05 pm
       
    • Takes seat Thursday
      Herrera isn't in the Cardinals' lineup for Thursday's game against the Brewers, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Herrera will get a day off Thursday after going 2-for-4 during Tuesday's game against the Mets. In his absence, Pedro Pages will pick up a start behind the plate and bat eighth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:23 pm
       
    • Racks up five RBI in win
      Soto went 3-for-5 with a home run and five total RBI in Wednesday's 9-4 victory versus the Astros.

      Advice: Soto put New York on the board in the first inning with a 440-foot two-run blast to center field. He added a run-scoring single in the second frame, an RBI groundout in the sixth and a run-scoring single in the eighth. Soto ranks second in the majors with 33 RBI on the campaign thanks largely to his nine homers and .423 batting average with runners in scoring position. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:37 am

    • Juan Soto homers, drives in five in win vs. Astros
      Juan Soto went 3-for-5 with a home run and five RBI to lead the Yankees to a 9-4 victory over the Astros on Wednesday.

      Advice: Soto put the Yankees on the board in the first inning with a solo blast off Spencer Arrighetti. He drove in another run with a single in the second, then plated a run with a groundout in the sixth. Soto made it five RBI on the day with a base hit in the eighth. The 25-year-old star outfielder is hitting an outstanding .333/.434/.583 with nine homers 26 runs scored, 32 RBI, and four steals across 173 plate appearances. Rotoworld Wednesday, 6:51 pm

    • Beginning assignment Sunday
      Snell (thigh) will throw a bullpen session Thursday and begin a rehab assignment at Single-A San Jose on Sunday, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

      Advice: Snell began facing hitters Tuesday, and he has now been given the green light to test his injured thigh in a competitive setting. The left-hander may have his assignment moved to a higher-level affiliate after his rehab outing Sunday, though it is possible the Giants opt to return him to their rotation after just one start.
