  • 70-43-7 4th Place
    • Pilfers 14th bag in win
      Chisholm went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Tuesday's win over the Royals.

      Advice: Despite the sparse stat line, Chisholm played a key role in the victory -- he smashed an infield single back at Will Smith in the seventh inning, and Nick Gordon came home with the winning run on the southpaw's throwing error. Chisholm has had a productive June so far, slashing .286/.338/.414 through 21 contests with two of his 10 homers and three of his 14 steals on the season. Rotowire.com 4 minutes ago
       
    • Three hits in Tuesday's win
      Kiermaier went 3-for-4 with two runs scored and an RBI in Tuesday's win over the Red Sox.

      Advice: Getting the start in center field and batting ninth, Kiermaier produced his first multi-hit performance since May 8. The veteran defensive whiz came into the game slashing a woeful .111/.135/.194 over 38 plate appearances in June with a 46.2 percent strikeout rate, and only a recent back issue for Daulton Varsho has given Kiermaier consistent starts again. He remains a long way from fantasy utility, even in deep formats. Rotowire.com 17 minutes ago
       
    • Sitting out Wednesday
      Benson is absent from the lineup for Wednesday contest versus the Pirates.

      Advice: It's a rare day off against a right-hander for Benson, as the Pirates are sending righty Luis Ortiz to the hill in the series finale. Nick Martini, Stuart Fairchild and Jake Fraley will be in the outfield for Cincinnati. Rotowire.com 21 minutes ago
       
    • Getting fourth straight start
      Fairchild will start in center field and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Fairchild has largely served as a short-side platoon outfielder this season, but he'll pick up his fourth consecutive start -- with three coming against right-handers -- as a replacement in center field for the injured TJ Friedl (hamstring). The 28-year-old went 3-for-12 with a double, a stolen base, three RBI and a run across his previous three starts and is slashing .216/.297/.331 overall on the season.

    • Playing time on downswing
      Haniger is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

      Advice: Haniger has picked up just one start in the Mariners' last five games, with Seattle facing five right-handers during that stretch. The Mariners should continue to make room in the lineup for Haniger against left-handed pitching, but Mitch Garver looks to be the preferred option ahead of Haniger at designated hitter when the team faces righties.

    • Four homers in six games
      Reynolds went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and two runs scored Tuesday against the Reds.

      Advice: Reynolds extended his hitting streak to 22 games, but his power has been particularly notable of late. Across his last six starts, he has gone deep four times to bring his total on the season to 13. Across the entirety of his hitting streak, Reynolds has hit .360 with 16 RBI and 15 runs.

    • On fire at Triple-A
      Noel is slashing .402/.471/.705 with nine home runs and a 14.5 percent strikeout rate in his last 30 games for Triple-A Columbus.

      Advice: With Kyle Manzardo failing to take a big-league job and run with it and Noel already being on the 40-man roster, Noel could get a shot as Cleveland's designated hitter sometime this summer. The righty-hitting slugger has huge raw power, and while he has seen 25 starts in the corner outfield spots this season, he's probably too big (6-foot-3, 250 pounds) to get regular starts in the outfield at the highest level.

    • Sitting against righty Wednesday
      McKinstry is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

      Advice: After he was on the bench for Tuesday's 4-1 win while southpaw Ranger Suarez took the hill for the Phillies, the lefty-hitting McKinstry will remain out of the lineup against Philadelphia right-hander Spencer Turnbull in the series finale. The Tigers may not be adhering to a strict platoon at shortstop between McKinstry and the righty-hitting Ryan Kreidler, as McKinstry has now sat in three of Detroit's last five matchups with righties.

    • Returns to lineup
      Rosario (face) will start at second base and bat sixth in Wednesday's contest versus the Mariners, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

      Advice: Rosario will be making his first start since he was hit in the face by a pitch in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Pirates. He's filling in at the keystone for Brandon Lowe (toe), who remains out for a fourth consecutive game. Rotowire.com Today, 6:19 am
