    • Sitting in second straight game
      Espinal is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

      Advice: Espinal will hit the bench for the second straight day after he had started in six straight games at either third base or designated hitter. With Noelvi Marte recently getting reinstated from an 80-game suspension to begin the season and with Jake Fraley and Jeimer Candelario returning to the lineup Saturday and Sunday, respectively, after multi-game absences, Espinal's opportunities are expected to become more limited moving forward.

    • Retreating to bench Sunday
      Freeman is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.

      Advice: Though he's on the bench for Sunday's series finale, Freeman appears to have moved back into a quasi-everyday role with Will Brennan (ribs) recently landing on the injured list. Freeman, who has slashed .169/.272/.268 thus far in June, had started in each of the Guardians' last five games. Rotowire.com Today, 10:57 am

    • Back to bench Sunday
      Arias is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.

      Advice: Arias started in five of the past six games while seeing action at three different positions, but he'll head to the bench in Sunday's series finale. The Guardians should continue to open up regular playing time for Arias against left-handed pitching, but his starting opportunities against right-handed pitching may be more sporadic while the Guardians have all of their regular hitters available with the exception of outfielder Will Brennan (ribs), who was recently placed on the injured list.

    • Scratched with foot soreness
      Vierling was scratched from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels due to left foot soreness.

      Advice: Vierling suffered the injury during Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Angels, when he fouled a pitch off his foot in the top of the 10th. Preliminary X-rays came back clean, but the 27-year-old wasn't moving well in pregame workouts Sunday, per Chris McCosky of The Detroit News. Vierling should be considered day-to-day and will have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery ahead of Tuesday's series opener in Minnesota. Rotowire.com Today, 10:54 am

    • Late scratch Sunday
      Davis was scratched from Sunday's lineup against the Blue Jays.

      Advice: The 31-year-old probably is perfectly healthy, but Juan Soto's (hand) late addition to the starting nine will bump Davis from the lineup. He's gone 1-for-9 with a double, two walks, an RBI and a run in three games since being acquired by the Yankees last weekend. Rotowire.com Today, 10:49 am

    • Getting Sunday off
      Lopez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

      Advice: With southpaw Kyle Freeland on the hill for Colorado, the lefty-hitting Lopez will move to the bench. Danny Mendick will replace Lopez at second base. Rotowire.com Today, 10:48 am

    • Matt Vierling scratched Sunday with foot soreness
      Matt Vierling was scratched from the lineup Sunday with left foot soreness.

      Advice: Vierling will miss at least a game with the foot injury, which was picked up during Saturday’s game against the Angels. The 27-year-old will sit with Riley Greene moving over to center field and Jake Rogers inserted into the lineup as the designated hitter. Rotoworld Today, 10:45 am

    • Not starting Sunday
      Ortiz (neck) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports.

      Advice: The 25-year-old is out of the lineup for the third straight game due to neck soreness, but his absence is viewed as precautionary. Ortiz's appearance as a pinch runner during Saturday's contest reinforces that sentiment. Andruw Monasterio will receive another start at the hot corner in Sunday's series finale.

    • Playing time trending up
      Merrifield will start in left field and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Marlins.

      Advice: Merrifield will get his third start in four games and should be in store for an uptick in playing time in the short term after the Phillies recently placed both Bryce Harper (hamstring) and Kyle Schwarber (groin) on the injured list. Through 16 games in June while seeing mostly sporadic at-bats, Merrifield has slashed .216/.293/.297 with one home run and one stolen base. Rotowire.com Today, 10:32 am
