  • 43-56-11 7th Place
    • Picks up 11th save
      Fairbanks tossed a perfect ninth inning, striking out one to collect a save Sunday against the Pirates.

      Advice: Fairbanks needed only 11 pitches to close the door on his 11th save. Fairbanks had allowed a run to score in three of his previous four appearances, with Sunday marking the first time in seven appearances he did not allow a baserunner. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:05 pm
       
    • Reinstated off IL, starting Sunday
      The White Sox reinstated Jimenez (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Sunday.

      Advice: Jimenez will serve as the designated hitter and bat third for the White Sox Sunday's series finale against the Tigers. The 27-year-old was placed on the IL on May 22 due to a left hamstring strain but was cleared to begin a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League on June 13. After going 8-for-18 with one double, one home run and five RBI over his six games, Jimenez has now been cleared to rejoin the big club. He should settle back in right away as the White Sox's everyday designated hitter, likely pushing Gavin Sheets into a reserve role as a result. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:27 am
       
    • White Sox activate Eloy Jiménez for Sunday return
      White Sox activated OF Eloy Jiménez from the 10-day injured list.

      Advice: Jiménez returns to Chicago’s lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Tigers following a nearly five-week absence recovering from a left hamstring strain. The oft-injured 27-year-old slugger has been snakebitten this physical ailments this season and has struggled to a pedestrian .668 OPS with five homers and three steals in 36 contests.

    • Placed on IL with hamstring strain
      The Yankees placed Stanton on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a left hamstring strain.

      Advice: Stanton exited in the fourth inning of Saturday's 8-3 win over Atlanta after injuring his left hamstring while scoring from second base on a Gleyber Torres double. Trent Grisham came off the bench to replace Stanton on Saturday, and the former could be in line for a near-everyday role in the outfield against right-handed pitching while the Yankees perhaps look to give Aaron Judge and others more time at designated hitter sans Stanton. With Stanton on the IL, the Yankees recalled infielder Oswald Peraza from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:12 am
       
    • Giancarlo Stanton lands on IL with hamstring strain
      Yankees placed OF Giancarlo Stanton on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain.

      Advice: Stanton is slated to undergo an MRI on Sunday to determine the severity and how much time he’ll likely wind up sidelined. Fantasy managers should anticipate him missing at least a few weeks, even if it’s a low-grade strain. The 34-year-old slugger, who has 18 homers in 69 games this season, suffered the injury during Saturday’s contest against the Braves. The timing is extremely unfortunate for the Yankees, and fantasy managers, as there isn’t a clear replacement for him at the moment with top prospect Jasson Domínguez on the shelf at Triple-A due to an oblique strain.

    • Giancarlo Stanton leaves game with hamstring issue
      Giancarlo Stanton was removed from Saturday night’s battle against the Braves due to tightness in his left hamstring.

      Advice: The 34-year-old slugger is set to undergo an MRI exam on Sunday to determine the severity of the injury. This is the type of situation that fantasy managers had been waiting for when Jasson Dominguez was tearing it up at Triple-A but had nowhere to play, but now that he’s on the injured list at Triple-A it’s unclear what they would do if Stanton was forced to miss substantial time. Trent Grisham replaced him on Saturday night and wound up swatting a solo homer. Rotoworld Saturday, 7:33 pm
       
    • Homers again in win
      Donovan went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a 9-4 win over the Giants on Saturday.

      Advice: Donovan singled in the fifth inning and hit a solo home run off Giants reliever Luke Jackson in the seventh. Donovan is on fire, homering for the third time in four games and recording his third straight multi-hit effort. He has hit safely in 15 of 18 June contests with four long balls and 12 RBI. On the season, the 27-year-old is hitting .262 with eight home runs, 37 RBI and 34 runs scored in 275 at-bats. Rotowire.com Saturday, 7:18 pm

    • Pops homer in win
      Ramirez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Ramirez put the Guardians ahead for good with a third-inning blast, which was his first extra-base hit since June 9. He's gone 8-for-33 (.242) over his last eight games, but he's made up for the quieter bat by adding four stolen bases in that span. Overall, the star third baseman has a .271/.330/.528 slash line with 19 homers, 67 RBI, 56 runs scored and 14 steals through 71 contests. Rotowire.com Saturday, 7:08 pm
       
    • Will miss games
      Manager Aaron Boone said Saturday that he's expecting Stanton (hamstring) to miss "days," Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

      Advice: Stanton was removed from Saturday's game with tightness in his hamstring and is set to undergo an MRI on Sunday. While Boone is hopeful the injury isn't significant, he's still expecting Stanton to miss some time. Sunday's MRI should provide more clarity on the severity of the injury. Trent Grisham entered the game for Stanton and could be in line for more at-bats while Stanton's sidelined. Rotowire.com Saturday, 7:07 pm
