    • Jo Adell absent from Angels’ lineup on Wednesday
      Jo Adell is absent from the Angels’ starting lineup for Wednesday’s series finale against the Brewers.

      Advice: The streaky 25-year-old outfielder has been more cold than hot as of late — slashing a cringe-inducing .118/.193/.196 with one homer, six RBI and a 23/4 K/BB ratio over 57 plate appearances in 16 games since the calendar flipped to June. He has still provided fantasy managers with power and speed, but eventually something is going to have to give if he can’t make consistent contact. Rotoworld Today, 3:59 pm

    • Sitting again Wednesday
      Perkins isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.

      Advice: Although the Angels will start Wednesday's game with southpaw Tyler Anderson on the mound, the Brewers will put the lefty-hitting Sal Frelick in center field rather than the switch-hitting Perkins, who is just 1-for-16 in his last five games. Rotowire.com Today, 3:58 pm
       
    • Jesse Winker powers Nationals past Diamondbacks
      Jesse Winker slugged a go-ahead two-run homer in the sixth inning, powering the Nationals to a 3-1 victory over the Diamondbacks on Wednesday afternoon in Washington D.C.

      Advice: Winker’s game-changing blast came off of Diamondbacks’ right-hander Brandon Pfaadt with two outs in the sixth inning. He got an 0-1 fastball and crushed a 399-foot (101.8 mph EV) two-run shot that plated Lane Thomas as well, giving the Nationals a 2-1 edge. The 30-year-old outfielder finished the day 1-for-3 plus a walk and is now hitting a respectable .271/.383/.410 with seven homers, 33 RBI and a career-high 11 stolen bases on the season.

    • Ian Happ tallies two hits, homers in victory
      Ian Happ went 2-for-4 with a solo homer on Wednesday in the Cubs’ victory over the Giants.

      Advice: Happ went back-to-back with teammate Dansby Swanson off Giants reliever Spencer Bivens in the fourth inning. The 29-year-old left fielder has gone deep three times in his last five contests since June 15 and is up to nine round-trippers on the season. Rotoworld Today, 3:36 pm

    • Moving back to bench Wednesday
      Goodman is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Dodgers.

      Advice: Goodman started each of the last four games -- two at designated hitter, two at catcher -- and went 6-for-17 with three home runs and one double, but he hasn't quite seized hold of an everyday role just yet. Jacob Stallings remains the Rockies' No. 1 catcher while Elias Diaz (calf) is on the shelf, and Charlie Blackmon and Elehuris Montero are also expected to factor into the mix at DH until Kris Bryant (oblique) returns from the injured list. Goodman may need to turn in a few more quality performances at the plate in his subsequent starts before the Rockies make him a fixture in the lineup. Rotowire.com Today, 3:34 pm

    • Settling back into reserve role
      Julks is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

      Advice: Julks is on the bench after he started in each of the White Sox's last three games, with the latter two coming against left-handed pitchers. Though he's served as a near-everyday player for much of his time with the White Sox since getting called up from Triple-A Charlotte on May 17, Julks appears set to lose out on regularly playing time moving forward following the recent returns of Andrew Benintendi and Tommy Pham from the injured list.

    • Sitting versus lefty
      Butler is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

      Advice: Butler was called up from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday and went 1-for-3 with a double and a run in his first big-league game in over a month. He'll head to the bench Wednesday as lefty Cole Ragans starts for Kansas City, which opens up right field for Daz Cameron. Rotowire.com Today, 2:55 pm
       
    • Wilyer Abreu on track to return over weekend
      Red Sox’ manager Alex Cora told reporters on Wednesday that Wilyer Abreu (ankle) is on track to rejoin the Red Sox over the weekend.

      Advice: The 24-year-old will play the outfield on Wednesday evening at Triple-A Worcester and is expected to serve as their designated hitter on Thursday. The team hasn’t yet decided whether Abreu will return on Friday or Saturday, but as long as he makes it through the next two games unscathed, his return appears imminent. Rotoworld Today, 2:34 pm

    • Two hits in return
      Winker went 2-for-3 with a double in Tuesday's loss to the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: The Nats managed only four hits on the night in a shutout loss, with Winker's fourth-inning double being the team's only extra-base hit. The 30-year-old outfielder sat out Sunday's game after tweaking his knee on the basepaths Saturday, but he seemed no worse for wear Tuesday. On the season, Winker is slashing .270/.381/.398 with six homers, 31 RBI, 33 runs and a career-high 11 steals in 69 contests. Rotowire.com Today, 8:57 am
