  • Swats pair of doubles Saturday
    Garver went 2-for-5 with an RBI double and another two-bagger in a win over the Astros on Saturday.

    Advice: Garver plated Jorge Polanco with his fourth-inning double, giving him his fourth RBI over the last seven games. The veteran offseason acquisition's solid performance Saturday notwithstanding, the early portion of his Mariners tenure qualifies as a considerable disappointment that's illustrated by his anemic .152/.262/.315 slash line and 32.7 percent strikeout rate across 107 plate appearances.

  • On bench in second straight
    Bart is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

    Advice: Though he stuck around over Henry Davis -- who was optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday -- once Yasmani Grandal (foot) was activated from the 10-day injured list, Bart looks as though he'll operate as the Pirates' No. 2 option behind the plate. He'll take a seat for the second straight day while Grandal logs another start at catcher. Rotowire.com Today, 8:42 am
     
  • Pedro Pages sent back to Memphis by Cardinals
    Cardinals optioned C Pedro Pages to Triple-A Memphis.

    Advice: Pages is off the active roster to make room for Dylan Carlson after Carlson was activated off the 10-day injured list. Pages should get a chance to play regularly in Memphis. Rotoworld Today, 8:14 am
     
  • Logan O’Hoppe out Sunday with hand contusion
    Logan O’Hoppe (hand) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday’s game against the Guardians.

    Advice: O’Hoppe is going to miss at least one more game after he was hit with a foul ball during Saturday’s contest against Cleveland and he was forced to exit. Matt Thaiss gets the start behind the plate and will hit seventh. O’Hoppe should be considered day-to-day. Rotoworld Today, 7:58 am
     
  • Not in Sunday's lineup
    Rortvedt is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

    Advice: Rortvedt started four of the previous five games but will receive Sunday off after he went 3-for-12 with four strikeouts during that stretch. Alex Jackson will step in behind the plate to catch for Ryan Pepiot on Sunday. Rotowire.com Today, 7:56 am
     
  • Not starting Sunday
    O'Hoppe (hand) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

    Advice: As expected, O'Hoppe will be on the bench for the day game to close out the series in Cleveland after he exited Saturday's 7-1 loss with a right hand contusion. Matt Thaiss will step in behind the plate for O'Hoppe, who should be viewed as day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener in Pittsburgh. Rotowire.com Today, 7:50 am
     
  • On bench in second straight
    Wells is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

    Advice: After sitting against Tigers right-hander Casey Mize in Saturday's 5-3 win, the lefty-hitting Wells will remain on the bench Sunday with southpaw Tarik Skubal on the hill for Detroit. The Yankees may be opting for more of a timeshare at catcher between Wells and the right-handed-hitting Jose Trevino rather than a true platoon, given that Trevino has been the better performer of the two this season. Trevino heads into Sunday's game with a .719 OPS, more than 100 points higher than Wells' mark (.592). Rotowire.com Today, 7:23 am
     
  • Homers in lopsided victory
    Langeliers went 3-for-5 with a triple, a three-run home run and two additional runs scored in a win over the Marlins on Saturday.

    Advice: Langeliers' 420-foot shot to left center with Kyle McCann and Lawrence Butler aboard in the eighth inning certainly wasn't necessary for the red-hot Athletics' victory, but it still had a bit of extra significance since it pushed Oakland's tally to 20 runs on the afternoon. Langeliers needed a prolific effort at the plate like Saturday's in the worst way, considering he'd come into the day with a .165/.222/.381 slash line. The three-bagger was Langeliers' first of the season after he legged out four triples a year ago. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:08 pm
     
  • Shea Langeliers goes deep in A’s win over Marlins
    Shea Langeliers went 3-for-5 with a home run and three RBI against the Marlins in Saturday.

    Advice: Langeliers tripled in the second inning and scored the first run of the game on a base hit by Darell Hernaiz. He added a single to lead off the seventh and came around to score on a double by JJ Bleday. With the game already out of hand, he made it 20 runs for Oakland with a three-run homer in the eighth inning. The 26-year-old slugger is batting .186/.246/.441 with seven homers and 16 RBI across 114 plate appearances. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:24 pm
