    • Ezequiel Tovar absent from Rockies’ lineup
      Ezequiel Tovar is not in the Rockies’ starting lineup for Wednesday night’s showdown against the Brewers.

      Advice: It looks to be a routine day off for the 22-year-old shortstop. Tovar has slumped recently after a very strong start to the season, hitting just .205/.244/.231 with no homers, one RBI and a 14/2 K/BB ratio over 41 plate appearances in his last nine games. Aaron Schunk will start in his place at shortstop and will bat ninth against Colin Rea and the Brewers on Wednesday evening at Coors Field. Rotoworld Today, 1:06 pm
       
    • Getting rare day off
      Tovar is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Brewers.

      Advice: Wednesday marks Tovar's third day off this season, as the 22-year-old yields to Aaron Schunk at shortstop. Tovar is slashing .276/.304/.459 with 12 home runs across 371 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 12:29 pm
       
    • Fields grounders Wednesday
      Berti (calf) took grounders on the field at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday, Max Goodman of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

      Advice: While no date for a rehab assignment has been set, Berti appears close to being cleared for game action. The veteran utility player has been shelved since late May with a high-grade left calf strain. Rotowire.com Today, 12:22 pm

    • Could return as second baseman
      Dodgers manager Dave Roberts stated over the weekend that he may consider having Betts (wrist) play primarily at second base upon his return, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

      Advice: The consideration to shift Betts back to second base from shortstop is primarily due to the impressive performance of Miguel Rojas, who has played excellent defense, as usual, while adding a surprisingly potent bat (he's slashing .291/.337/.437 over 164 plate appearances). The versatile Betts is no stranger to second base; he played a career-high 70 games at the position last year after beginning the campaign in the outfield. Betts was then asked to move to shortstop ahead of 2024 despite never having logged time there in the majors prior to 2023, and he's performed adequately defensively despite a few hiccups. It remains to be seen if the Dodgers will ultimately pursue having Betts and Rojas form their middle infield for most games, and Roberts has time to think through that scenario since Betts remains several weeks away from returning. He threw and ran Tuesday, per the Associated Press, but hasn't yet swung a bat. Rotowire.com Today, 12:18 pm

    • Not in starting nine
      Arcia (tooth) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Giants.

      Advice: Arcia is dealing with an abscessed tooth and will be held out of the starting lineup for a second straight game. Though it's unclear exactly when he'll be available to start, Arcia had the issue addressed Tuesday, so it's likely he'll be cleared in the coming days. Zack Short will bat ninth and play shortstop.

    • On bench again
      Hamilton is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Hamilton is absent from the starting nine for the third time in the last four games, with Wednesday's contest being the first against a left-handed pitcher. Romy Gonzalez will play second base and Ceddanne Rafaela will play shortstop. Rotowire.com Today, 12:10 pm
       
    • Receiving breather
      DeJong is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

      Advice: The 30-year-old will get the night off Wednesday after making 11 consecutive starts at shortstop. Nicky Lopez will fill in for DeJong at short while Danny Mendick plays second base. DeJong owns a .731 OPS with 15 home runs across 290 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 12:05 pm
       
    • Out of lineup Wednesday
      Lopez (undisclosed) is out of the starting nine for Wednesday's game against Boston.

      Advice: Lopez was scratched from Tuesday's contest for unspecified reasons and will remain on the bench for Wednesday's contest. Instead, Vidal Brujan will bat seventh and fill the keystone. Rotowire.com Today, 11:47 am

    • On verge of rehab assignment
      Bogaerts (shoulder) could begin a rehab assignment within the next day or two, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union Tribune reports.

      Advice: Bogaerts had a CT scan of his left shoulder Monday, the results of which indicated that he is ready to resume playing. Acee indicates that the infielder will likely head out on a rehab assignment with Triple-A El Paso in the coming days, and team officials have previously suggested that a rehab stint would last 7 to 10 days. Though manager Mike Shildt recently said that there is no timeline for Bogaerts' activation from the injured list, if all goes well moving forward, he could rejoin the Padres for their home series against Atlanta that begins July 12.
