    • Jake Cronenworth not in Padres lineup on Saturday
      Jake Cronenworth is absent from the Padres’ starting lineup for Saturday night’s showdown against the Phillies.

      Advice: It appears to be nothing more than a regular day of rest for the 30-year-old infielder with left-hander Ranger Suarez toeing the slab for the Phillies. Jurickson Profar will make just his second start of the season at first base while Jose Azocar enters the lineup in left field for the Padres. Rotoworld Today, 1:59 pm
       
    • Hits bench versus lefty
      Cronenworth isn't in the Padres' lineup for Saturday's game against the Phillies.

      Advice: Cronenworth will get a breather Friday with lefty Ranger Suarez on the mound for Philadelphia. Jurickson Profar will start in his place at first base, allowing Jose Azocar to start in left field while batting ninth. Rotowire.com Today, 1:46 pm
       
    • Records second win
      Doval (2-0) allowed two hits and a walk while striking out one over a scoreless inning to earn the win Friday over the Pirates.

      Advice: Doval walked the tightrope in the top of the ninth inning Friday, loading the bases with one out before inducing a double play to escape the jam while keeping the game scoreless. Patrick Bailey then delivered a walk-off three-run home run to give Doval and the Giants the win. Doval has kept runs off the board in seven of his nine appearances this season, earning four saves with a 3.12 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 13:5 K:BB over 8.2 innings. Rotowire.com Today, 10:01 am
       
    • Quality start in no-decision
      Ashcraft allowed one earned run on seven hits and no walks while striking out three batters across 6.1 innings during Friday's loss against Texas. He didn't factor into the decision.

      Advice: Ashcraft needed to bounce back nicely Friday after giving up five runs to the Angels in five innings during his last start. He managed to do just that, as his lone blemish came in the second inning via an Evan Carter solo home run. A lack of production from the Reds' offense forced Ashcraft to settle for a no-decision, and he will carry a 4.40 ERA and 1.29 WHIP into his next start -- currently projected to come Wednesday in San Diego.

    • Homers in Friday's loss
      Mullins went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 3-2 extra-inning loss to the Athletics.

      Advice: Mullins took Ross Stripling deep in the fourth inning to give the Orioles a 2-1 lead. Prior to Friday, Mullins had gone 0-for-11 with two walks and a stolen base over his last three games. The veteran outfielder is slashing .232/.286/.476 with six homers, 16 RBI, five steals, 16 runs scored and two doubles through 91 plate appearances. He continues to see the majority of the playing time in center field, though it's unclear if his spot is in any danger following the recent call-ups of Heston Kjerstad and Ryan McKenna. If Mullins struggles, he could cede some at-bats versus southpaws to players like McKenna or Jorge Mateo. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:55 pm
       
    • Graham Ashcroft works into seventh in no-decision
      Graham Ashcraft pitched 6 1/3 innings of one-run ball against the Rangers on Friday.

      Advice: Ashcraft allowed seven hits, but since he walked none, only the Evan Carter homer did damage. He has a 4.40 ERA after five starts, and he probably deserves better, what with his 26/7 K/BB and strong groundball rate. He’s a fringy mixed-league option, but he’s a big key as far as the Reds’ chances of contending this season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 11:22 pm
       
    • Brandon Marsh collects three hits, homer in rout
      Brandon Marsh went 3-for-5 with a two-run homer and three RBI in a 9-3 rout of the Padres on Friday.

      Advice: The Phillies were able to sock five homers on Friday night — four of those off Joe Musgrove — and Marsh took Musgrove deep with a runner on to give Philadelphia a 5-0 lead. He also doubled in a run in the first, and the three-hit night has the 26-year-old slashing .291/.329/.570. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:28 pm

    • Homers, drives in three
      Marsh went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double and three RBI in Friday's win over the Padres.

      Advice: Marsh knocked an RBI double in the first inning followed by a two-run blast in the third, both coming against Joe Musgrove. It was Marsh's sixth long ball of the year, though he had just one over his previous 11 games before Friday's big performance. He's now slashing .291/.329/.570 with nine extra-base hits and 16 RBI through 85 plate appearances this season. Friday's game was his second multi-hit showing over his last 14 contests.

    • Corbin Burnes holds A’s to one run in no-decision
      Corbin Burnes wasn’t involved in the decision after allowing one run over six innings Friday against the Orioles.

      Advice: Burnes outdueled Ross Stripling and left with a one-run lead, but the A’s let Stripling off the hook for once by scoring a run in the ninth and then winning the game in 10. Baltimore had been 5-0 with Burnes on the mound. The right-hander has a 2.55 ERA and a 32/8 K/BB ratio in 35 1/3 innings. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:33 pm
