  • 39-42-9 6th Place
    • Called up to majors
      The Rockies recalled Amador from Double-A Hartford on Saturday, independent journalist Francys Romero reports.

      Advice: Amador only sports a .666 OPS through 208 plate appearances this season with Hartford, but he has slashed .326/.388/.767 with six homers and 14 RBI while also stealing six bases across his last 10 games. It's unclear how long his first stint in the big leagues will last, but he'll at least provide some immediate middle-infield depth with Brendan Rodgers battling a hamstring injury.

    • Report: Rockies calling up prospect Adael Amador
      Independent journalist Francys Romero reports the Rockies are calling up top prospect Adael Amador.

      Advice: Amador has been sizzling-hot of late for Double-A Harford, batting .359 with six homers over his last nine games, on the heels of a frosty start to the year. The 21-year-old prodigy possesses excellent bat-to-ball skills, which should lead to high batting averages in Colorado, and is starting to show some additional over-the-fence pop. It’s unclear how long he’ll remain in the majors, but he figures to be worthy of a speculative pickup in deeper mixed leagues. Rotoworld 21 minutes ago

    • Counsell: Nico Hoerner has small fracture in hand
      Cubs manager Craig Counsell told reporters Saturday that Nico Hoerner has been diagnosed with a small fracture in his right hand.

      Advice: Counsell added that team doctors are comfortable with Hoerner returning to action if the pain and swelling subside in his right hand. It sounds like the club is going to take a few additional days before making a decision on whether he’ll require a trip to the injured list. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now.

    • Diagnosed with hand fracture
      Manager Craig Counsell said Saturday that Hoerner has a small fracture in his hand, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

      Advice: Counsell noted that the team's doctors are comfortable with Hoerner playing through his injury once the swelling subsides, and the Cubs will wait a few days to see how his hand recovers before deciding on a potential IL move. Meanwhile, David Bote figures to see regular action at second base while Hoerner is sidelined. Rotowire.com 28 minutes ago

    • Sitting as expected
      Rodgers (hamstring) isn't in the Rockies' lineup for Saturday's game against the Cardinals.

      Advice: Rodgers had to be taken out of Friday's game after his hamstring tightened up on him while running to first base in the fourth inning. The Rockies said the 27-year-old would require treatment for a couple of days, so Alan Trejo will take over at second base and bat ninth Saturday. Rotowire.com 47 minutes ago
       
    • Sitting Saturday
      Caballero is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Orioles, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

      Advice: Caballero will take a seat Saturday after going 1-for-4 with a double in the series opener Friday. Taylor Walls will start at shortstop Saturday and bat seventh against Orioles right-hander Kyle Bradish. Rotowire.com Today, 11:04 am
       
    • Sitting again Saturday
      Hoerner (hand) isn't in the Cubs' lineup for Saturday's game against the Reds.

      Advice: Hoerner sat out Friday's game after getting hit in the hand by a pitch Thursday, and the issue seems to still be bothering him ahead of Saturday's contest. David Bote will start at second base and bat seventh while Hoerner recovers. Rotowire.com Today, 10:56 am

    • Brendan Rogers out Saturday with hamstring issue
      Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) is absent from the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Cardinals.

      Advice: Rodgers will get some extra time to rest and recover after leaving Friday’s game with a mild left hamstring injury. It certainly doesn’t sound like a serious concern, but the 27-year-old will likely sit out the remainder of the weekend to continue undergoing treatment. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Today, 10:48 am
       
    • Nico Hoerner remains out Saturday with hand issue
      Nico Hoerner (hand) remains out of the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Reds.

      Advice: Additional X-rays on Hoerner’s hand were reportedly inconclusive on Friday after he had trouble gripping and swinging a bat. The 27-year-old was hit by a pitch during Thursday’s series opener and will sit out his second straight contest on Saturday afternoon. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for the moment, but it wouldn’t be a total shock to see him land on the injured list at some point this weekend. Rotoworld Today, 10:39 am
