  • Collects third win
    Schreiber (3-0) earned the win Friday versus the Rangers, allowing two hits and two walks with one strikeout in a scoreless inning.

    Advice: Schreiber erased a walk with a double play, then loaded the bases again before striking out Marcus Semien to end the top of the seventh inning. The Royals rallied for six runs in their half of the frame, and Schreiber ended up with the win. He's pitched 5.1 consecutive scoreless innings, and he's been scored on just once this season, pitching to 0.59 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 11:5 K:BB over 15.1 innings. He's getting some good luck, as indicated by a .227 BABIP and 3.06 FIP, but the right-hander looks poised to play an important high-leverage role for the Royals for the year.

  • On base three times
    Caballero went 2-for-3 with two runs scored and a walk Friday against the Mets.

    Advice: Caballero collected a pair of hits for the second consecutive game and also drew his first walk in 12 starts. He also remains busy on the basepaths, though he was caught stealing for the fifth time in 14 attempts on the campaign. Caballero hasn't offered much power across 113 plate appearances, but he does have 14 runs scored and 12 RBI. Rotowire.com 11 minutes ago
     
  • Homers in Friday's win
    Renfroe went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 7-1 win over the Rangers.

    Advice: Renfroe has struggled to get his bat going -- he's 3-for-27 (.111) over his last 10 games. The outfielder has started to lose playing time to Adam Frazier, who was squeezed out of a full-time role at second base when Michael Massey returned from a back injury. Renfroe is slashing a poor .155/.228/.298 with three homers, 11 RBI, eight runs scored and three doubles over 92 plate appearances, so he'll need to put together better performances to continue playing regularly.

  • With Cardinals on Saturday
    Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Carlson (shoulder) will take part in various drills before Saturday's game against the White Sox, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Carlson was set to play for Triple-A Memphis over the weekend against Charlotte, but with the weekend games threatened by rain, the 25-year-old is with the big club instead. Carlson has played four games with Memphis in his rehab assignment, going 3-for-11 with a solo home run and three walks. He'll take fly balls, run bases and mimic right-handed at-bats in a cage Saturday, but he won't be activated. Rotowire.com 13 minutes ago

  • Tallies three hits
    Ramirez went 3-for-5 with a run scored Friday against the Mets.

    Advice: Ramirez has started to see his playing time slip with righties on the mound, but he hit third in the order with lefty Jose Quintana starting for the Mets. Ramirez took advantage of the opportunity by recording multiple hits for the third time in his last 15 starts. Ramirez has only one home run across 115 plate appearances for the season, but he does 13 runs scored and 10 RBI. Rotowire.com 17 minutes ago
     
  • Idle against southpaw
    Butler isn't in the Athletics' lineup for Saturday's game versus Miami.

    Advice: The Marlins will send left-hander Trevor Rogers to the mound for the beginning of Saturday's contest, meaning the lefty-hitting Butler will be forced to step out of the lineup. Tyler Nevin will fill the opening in right field, batting second. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago
     
  • Sitting again versus lefty
    Brown isn't in the Athletics' lineup for Saturday's game against the Marlins.

    Advice: Brown will take a seat Saturday as the A's prepare to face a left-handed starter for the second game in a row. He will be replaced in left field by Esteury Ruiz, who will lead off Oakland's lineup. Rotowire.com 21 minutes ago

  • Back up to majors
    The Brewers recalled Monasterio from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.

    Advice: Monasterio has appeared in four games with the Brewers this season, going 0-for-7 with two runs and two walks. He's slashing .243/.362/.297 with seven runs, two doubles, six steals and four RBI over 47 plates appearances in Triple-A this season. Monasterio's move up to the majors corresponds with the Brewers placing Joey Wiemer (knee) on the 10-day IL. Rotowire.com 22 minutes ago
     
  • Big day against Mets
    Rosario went 3-for-5 with two RBI and two runs scored Friday against the Mets.

    Advice: Rosario hit three singles to record his first multi-hit game since April 22. He's hit only .222 in that span, though he's still struck out at just a 15.8 percent clip and has started nine of the last 10 games. Rosario also has an excellent .309 average on the season with two home runs and three stolen bases across 113 plate appearances. Rotowire.com 24 minutes ago
