    • Andrew Benintendi leaves early with Achilles issue
      Andrew Benintendi was pulled from Saturday afternoon’s matchup against the Brewers due to left Achilles tendinitis.

      Advice: Benintendi got the White Sox on the board in the third inning with a 397-foot blast off of Robert Gasser. Perhaps he irritated something on the swing or while rounding the bases though, as he was replaced by Dominic Fletcher when the White Sox took the field. The club should have an update on his status — and potential timeline for his return — after the game. Rotoworld 8 minutes ago
       
    • Out through All-Star break
      Manager Craig Counsell said Saturday that Merryweather (ribs) will not return until after the All-Star break, Tony Andracki of Marquee Sports Network reports.

      Advice: Merryweather has been on the IL since early April due to a rib stress fracture in his back. He's only a couple weeks into his throwing program, but the Cubs have already determined that it will take at least another month-and-a-half to get the 32-year-old reliever ready for game action. As Merryweather continues to check off boxes in his rehab process, a more exact return date should emerge. Rotowire.com 8 minutes ago
       
    • Leaves early Saturday
      Benintendi exited Saturday's contest with the Brewers in the bottom of the third inning with left Achilles tendinitis.

      Advice: Benintendi launched a solo home run off Robert Gasser in the top of the third inning, delivering the White Sox an early 1-0 lead, before leaving the game in the bottom half of the frame. Dominic Fletcher replaced him in the outfield and more information on Benintendi's status will come following the contest. Rotowire.com 14 minutes ago
       
    • Could start rehab stint this week
      Matz (back) will throw a full-intensity bullpen Monday and could get sent on a minor-league rehab assignment if the bullpen session goes well, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Monday's bullpen session will be Matz's third since he hit the IL with a back injury. The southpaw has missed a full month of action, and would likely need a couple of rehab starts before returning to the Cardinals' active roster. In the meantime, Andre Pallante is set to fill Matz's spot in the rotation. Rotowire.com 16 minutes ago

    • Sitting again Saturday
      Busch isn't in the Cubs' lineup for Saturday's game against the Reds.

      Advice: Busch is 4-for-13 with a homer, three RBI and two runs scored in his last six games, but he is likely to see a dip in playing time as Pete Crow-Armstrong's arrival will force Cody Bellinger to start at first base more often. Rotowire.com 21 minutes ago

    • Exits early Saturday
      Grissom (right hamstring strain) was removed from Saturday's contest with the Tigers in the top of the third inning, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.

      Advice: Grissom grounded out in the bottom of the second inning and was replaced by Connor Wong at second base. He missed the first month of the season with a left hamstring strain. The Red Sox will close out its series against Detroit on Sunday before getting a day off Monday. Expect more information regarding Grissom's injury after Saturday's game Rotowire.com 28 minutes ago

    • Idle versus southpaw
      Fraley isn't in the Reds' lineup for Saturday's game against the Cubs.

      Advice: With lefty starter Justin Steele set to toe the slab for Chicago, the lefty-hitting Fraley will step out of the lineup Saturday. His absence will move Tyler Stephenson into the DH role while Luke Maile starts behind the plate, batting ninth. Rotowire.com 35 minutes ago
       
    • Called up Saturday
      Snider was called up from Triple-A Tacoma on Saturday.

      Advice: Snider will return to the major-league bullpen for the first time since April 8, replacing Gabe Speier (shoulder) on the 26-man roster after Speier was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday. Snider has appeared in three games with Seattle in 2024, surrendering two runs on three hits and a walk while striking out two over three innings. Rotowire.com 37 minutes ago
       
    • Sitting versus lefty
      Benson isn't in the Reds' lineup for Saturday's game against the Cubs.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Benson will retreat to the dugout as the lefty-throwing Justin Steele prepares to toe the slab Saturday. Stuart Fairchild will fill the void in right field and bat in the leadoff spot. Rotowire.com 39 minutes ago
