  • Getting rest day
    Smith is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

    Advice: Unless he makes a plate appearance off the bench, Smith will put his eight-game hitting streak on hold and get a breather after he was behind the plate for each of the Dodgers' previous five contests. Austin Barnes will handle the catching duties in the series finale. Rotowire.com 43 minutes ago
     
  • Idle against lefty
    O'Hearn is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting O'Hearn finds himself on the bench for the second day in a row while Cincinnati brings another southpaw (Nick Lodolo) to the hill. O'Hearn's absence will allow the Orioles to give infielder Gunnar Henderson a day off playing defense, as the third-year player instead serves as Baltimore's designated hitter.

  • Heading to bench Sunday
    Mullins is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

    Advice: With the Orioles wrapping up their series in Cincinnati with a day game and a lefty (Nick Lodolo) on the hill for the Reds, manager Brandon Hyde likely viewed Sunday as an opportune time to give the lefty-hitting Mullins a day off. Ryan McKenna will check in for Mullins in center field. Rotowire.com 49 minutes ago
     
  • Out of Sunday's lineup
    Moreno is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.

    Advice: Moreno started the first two games of the series and will sit Sunday afternoon after going 2-for-7 with an RBI. Tucker Barnhart will step in behind the plate and bat ninth. Rotowire.com 59 minutes ago
     
  • Not starting Sunday
    Gurriel is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.

    Advice: Gurriel started the previous eight games but will head to the bench Sunday after he went 2-for-33 during that span. Jake McCarthy will receive a start in left field while Pavin Smith starts in right. Rotowire.com Today, 12:02 pm
     
  • Exiting starting nine Sunday
    Davis is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

    Advice: Following a stint on the 10-day injured list due to an adductor strain, Davis was activated Friday and had started at first base in both of his first two games back in action, going 2-for-7 with a run scored between those contests. The Athletics haven't indicated that Davis suffered a setback in his recovery from the injury, so his absence Sunday is presumably a pre-planned maintenance day. Rotowire.com Today, 12:01 pm

  • Getting maintenance day
    Langeliers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

    Advice: Langeliers was probably overdue for a day off, as he had started at catcher or served as a designated hitter in each of Oakland's last five games. Kyle McCann will get a turn behind the plate in Sunday's series finale. Rotowire.com Today, 11:59 am
     
  • Max Muncy gets Sunday off after three-homer game
    Max Muncy is not in the starting lineup for the Dodgers on Sunday against Atlanta.

    Advice: Muncy’s reward for a three-homer game Saturday vs. Atlanta is a day off against southpaw Max Fried. The 33-year-old slugger will sit with Enrique Hernandez playing third base and hitting fifth against Fried. Rotoworld Today, 10:07 am

  • Lourdes Gurriel Jr. not starting Sunday vs. Padres
    Lourdes Gurriel is not in the starting lineup Sunday against the Padres.

    Advice: Gurriel Jr. gets a rare day off for the Sunday finale against the Padres. While he rests the Diamondbacks will have Jake McCarthy hit leadoff and play left field. Rotoworld Today, 8:46 am
