  • Placed on IL with calf strain
    The Brewers placed Sanchez on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a left calf strain, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: It's a low-grade strain, but Sanchez wasn't going to be available to play for a while so the Brewers opted to make a roster move. Sanchez will be eligible to return July 4, but it's not clear yet whether he'll be ready on that date. Eric Haase will absorb his roster spot. Rotowire.com 3 minutes ago
     
  • Taking seat Wednesday
    Goodman is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

    Advice: Goodman is on the bench Wednesday, but he seems to have settling into a near-everyday role of late while moving between designated hitter and catcher. He had started in nine of the Rockies' previous 10 games, going 10-for-37 with five home runs, one double, 10 RBI and seven runs over that stretch. Rotowire.com 13 minutes ago

  • Belts 10th homer in loss
    Garver went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a loss to the Rays on Tuesday.

    Advice: Garver's night was a microcosm of the dichotomy of his first season with the Mariners -- he flashed his power stroke for the second straight night and left the yard for the fifth time in the last 16 games overall, but he also struck out in his other three plate appearances. The veteran offseason addition has impressively knocked 22 of his 39 hits for extra bases, yet the second-highest strikeout rate of his career (30.0 percent) and a .215 BABIP have conspired to generate an anemic .176 average across his first 68 games in Seattle.

  • Getting rest day
    Grandal is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Advice: Grandal will get a breather for the day game Wednesday after he started behind the dish in each of the Pirates' last three contests. Jason Delay will spell Grandal, forming a battery with starting pitcher Luis Ortiz. Rotowire.com Today, 8:13 am
     
  • Starting in place of resting Rortvedt
    Jackson will start at catcher and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Mariners, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Advice: Jackson will get a turn behind the plate while top backstop Ben Rortvedt rests for the day game after a night game. Since his call-up from Triple-A Durham on May 3, Jackson is hitting a lowly .081/.159/.161 with 31 strikeouts in 70 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 7:33 am
     
  • Resting Wednesday
    Rogers is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

    Advice: Rogers had started behind the plate in three of Detroit's last four games while going 3-for-10 with a walk and two runs. He'll get a breather for the day game Wednesday while Carson Kelly draws the start at catcher. Rotowire.com Today, 6:59 am
     
  • Sitting out Wednesday
    Rortvedt is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Advice: Rortvedt started the previous two contests and went 2-for-4 with a home run, a walk and four RBI in the Rays' 11-3 win over the Mariners on Tuesday night, but he'll begin the Wednesday afternoon contest on the bench. Alex Jackson will get the nod behind the plate. Rotowire.com Today, 6:22 am
     
  • Reaches thrice in win
    Contreras went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored during Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Rangers.

    Advice: Contreras got the Brewers on the board in the third inning, swatting a leadoff double before being driven in on a two-out single by Jackson Chourio. Tuesday's contest marked Contreras' first multi-hit game since June 16. While the catcher's power numbers are down overall, he's one stolen base away from matching his career high and is on pace for a career best strikeout rate at 19.3 percent.

  • Smacks homer in loss
    McCann went 2-for-4 with a home run and three RBI in Tuesday's 10-8 loss to the Guardians.

    Advice: McCann was able to generate a run in three of his four at-bats. He had an RBI single in the second inning, a solo shot in the fourth and an RBI groundout in the seventh. The veteran catcher is 7-for-33 (.212) over 10 games in June, and he continues to see sparse playing time as backup to Adley Rutschman. For the year, McCann has a .202/.227/.325 slash line with three homers, 13 RBI, 15 runs scored, one stolen base and five doubles over 119 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:32 pm
