    • Colt Keith has four hits, HR in win
      Colt Keith went 4-for-6 with a solo home run in a win over the Astros on Saturday.

      Advice: Keith is now 6-for-9 in the first two games of the series. The home run was his third of the season and accounted for his 20th RBI. While those numbers aren’t anything to write home about, Keith has some legitimate power at the minor league level. After getting hot in May, Keith was banged up in a collision with his own teammate and went cold to start June, but perhaps his bat is heating back up again. Rotoworld Today, 5:17 pm

    • Chas McCormick hits HR in loss to Tigers
      Chas McCormick went 1-for-3 with a three-run home run in a loss to the Tigers on Saturday.

      Advice: McCormick didn’t start this game, but all five Astros’ runs were driven in by players who were on the bench for the first pitch. The home run was McCormick’s first of the season but was a no-doubted, hit 428 feet at 106.5 mph. He’s battled through injuries this year and is hitting just .209 on the season, but Jake Meyers has also started to struggle, so there is a chance that McCormick could push for more playing time if he can start swinging the bat well.

    • Late addition to lineup
      Montero will play first base and bat cleanup Saturday against Pittsburgh, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

      Advice: Brenton Doyle (knee) was scratched from the lineup Saturday, pushing Jake Cave to center field and Michael Toglia into right in order to open up a spot at first base for Montero. Montero has just two hits in his last 23 at-bats and has a .546 OPS on the year. Rotowire.com Today, 5:03 pm
       
    • Brenton Doyle scratched with knee issue Saturday
      Brenton Doyle was scratched from the Rockies’ starting lineup on Saturday night due to left patella tendinitis.

      Advice: The fact that he was in the team’s initial lineup before getting scratched bodes well for his availability moving forward. Doyle should be considered day-to-day. Michael Toglia will start in his place in right field and will bat sixth for the Rockies on Saturday night against Jared Jones and the Pirates. Rotoworld Today, 5:00 pm

    • Pirates place Henry Davis on 7-day concussion IL
      Pirates placed C/OF Henry Davis on the 7-day concussion injured list.

      Advice: The 24-year-old slugger suffered the injury during Friday night’s contest against the Rockies. Even after the mandatory seven days on the injured list, he’ll still need to pass through the concussion protocol before he’s able to return. Jason Delay was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis in a corresponding move on Saturday. Rotoworld Today, 4:42 pm
