    • Set to return Tuesday
      Schwarber (groin) is expected to be activated off the injured list ahead of Tuesday's series opener against the Dodgers, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Schwarber has been working through drills at 90 percent intensity, per Corey Seidman of NBC Sports Philadelphia, and the 31-year-old slugger will run the bases Saturday in what is the last step in his rehab program before rejoining the team. Schwarber is slashing .250/.373/447 with 17 home runs, 49 RBI and a .820 OPS over 367 plate appearances this season. Rotowire.com Today, 2:18 pm

    • Reds place Jake Fraley on family emergency list
      Reds placed OF Jake Fraley on the family medical emergency list.

      Advice: That explains Fraley’s absence against a right-hander on Friday night. Nothing but well wishes to Fraley and his family during this difficult time. The family medical emergency list allows him to step away from the team for anywhere between three and seven days, so he’ll miss the weekend series against the Tigers at a minimum. Edwin Rios was recalled from Triple-A Louisville to take his place on the active roster. Rotoworld Today, 1:45 pm

    • David Hamilton sits against southpaw on Friday
      David Hamilton is not in the Red Sox’ starting lineup once again with an opposing southpaw on the hill on Friday.

      Advice: The 26-year-old speedster has seen his playing time squeezed as of late, as he hasn’t even been a regular against right-handed pitching this week. Once again, Enmanuel Valdez will start in his place at second base and will bat eighth for the Red Sox against Nestor Cortes and the Yankees on Friday night. Rotoworld Today, 1:11 pm
       
    • Jake Fraley riding the pine once again on Friday
      Jake Fraley is once again riding the pine for the Reds for Friday’s series opener against the Tigers in Cincinnati.

      Advice: It’s the third time that Fraley has found himself on the bench in the last four games, and the troubling part is that two of those games — including Friday’s — have been against opposing right-handed pitchers. Nick Martini will draw another start in his place and will bat fifth against Reese Olson and the Tigers on Friday night. Rotoworld Today, 1:04 pm

    • Goes on family emergency list
      The Reds placed Fraley on the family medical emergency list Friday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

      Advice: By rule, Fraley will miss at least the next three days but no more than seven days while on the list. The Reds have Nick Martini and Will Benson in the corner outfield spots and Jeimer Candelario at designated hitter Friday against the Tigers. Rotowire.com Today, 1:02 pm

    • Not in Boston lineup
      Hamilton is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Yankees.

      Advice: Hamilton has now started just two of the last six contests. He and Enmanuel Valdez have been sharing starts at second base against righties but will be Valdez at the keystone Friday versus lefty Nestor Cortes. Rotowire.com Today, 12:50 pm
       
    • Idle Friday
      Fraley is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Detroit.

      Advice: Fraley's playing time has been trending down lately, having only started in four of the Reds' last 12 games. Nick Martini has emerged as Cincinnati's preferred option in left field, pushing Will Benson into right field and Fraley to the bench on most nights. Rotowire.com Today, 12:05 pm

    • Snaps slump with three hits
      Verdugo went 3-for-4 with two doubles in Thursday's loss to Cincinnati.

      Advice: Verdugo entered Thursday in the throes of a 12-game slump during which he went 6-for-47 (.128 average). The outfielder showed positive signs of getting back on track against the Reds, not only collecting three knocks but also producing two extra-base hits -- as many as he had tallied during that entire 12-game downturn. While Verdugo is on pace to set a career high in homers and RBI this season (he has nine long balls and 43 runs batted in through 85 games), his .248 batting average and .305 OBP are both on pace for his lowest marks since his 15-game cup of coffee with the Dodgers in 2017.

    • Collects two thefts Thursday
      Hamilton went 1-for-5 with a walk, an RBI, two runs and two stolen bases against the Marlins in Thursday's 6-5 extra-innings victory.

      Advice: Hamilton scored Boston's first two runs of the contest, then collected a go-ahead RBI on a groundout in the 12th frame. The infielder also recorded two swipes of third base, moving him up to fourth in MLB with 23 stolen bases (on 24 attempts) for the season. Though Hamilton has seen his playing time dry up a bit of late, he has continued to produce fairly well. Despite hitting just .200 over his past 35 at-bats, he's recorded a home run, five RBI, eight runs and nine stolen bases during that stretch. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:09 pm
