    • Resting Tuesday
      Garcia is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

      Advice: Garcia will get his first day off since April 27, as Travis Jankowski bats sixth and plays right field Tuesday. Garcia owns a .677 OPS with 13 homers and six stolen bases through 285 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 1:08 pm
       
    • Adolis García on the bench Tuesday vs. Mets
      Adolis García is not in the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Mets.

      Advice: It appears to be a routine off day for García, who has been struggling of late, batting .152 (17-for-112) with five homers and two steals, while also striking out 34 times, over his last 30 contests. It’s possible a mental break will help get things back on track. Rotoworld Tuesday, 1:08 pm
       
    • Josh Smith returns to lineup Tuesday vs. Mets
      Josh Smith is back in the lineup for Tuesday’s contest against the Mets.

      Advice: Smith is back at designated hitter for Tuesday’s contest against the Mets after missing four straight games due to general soreness. It could be a few additional days before he’s ready to get back onto the field defensively, but it’s an encouraging development that the Rangers are able to get his bat back into the lineup. The 26-year-old infielder has been excellent this year, batting .294/.384/.436 with four homers and four steals across 243 plate appearances. Rotoworld Tuesday, 1:05 pm
       
    • Homers, drives in four
      Nimmo went 3-for-4 with a home run, four RBI and two runs scored in Monday's win over the Rangers.

      Advice: Nimmo knocked RBI singles in the second and fifth innings but most of his damage came in the fourth inning when he ripped a two-run homer. It was his second straight three-hit game and fourth consecutive appearance with multiple hits. That hot streak has bumped Nimmo's OPS from .708 to .756. He has eight home runs and 39 RBI through 67 games this season. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:37 pm
       
    • Nimmo has three hits, four RBI in win Monday
      Brandon Nimmo went 3-for-4 with two runs scored, a home run and four RBI against the Rangers on Monday.



      Advice: Nimmo is now 10-for-17 (.588) with six runs scored and seven RBI over his last four games. His average is up to .240 with a .756 OPS and 39 RBI on the season. It’s been a down season for Nimmo, a career .266 hitter, but he seems to be turning it around at the plate lately.

    • Dodgers expect Betts (hand) to miss 6-8 weeks
      The Dodgers’ current guess is that Mookie Betts will miss 6-8 weeks with a fractured left hand.

      Advice: Sounds about right. The Dodgers will mostly go with Miguel Rojas at shortstop for now; manager Dave Roberts said he’d start three of the four games in Colorado this week. Enrique Hernández figures to get the nod in the other. Rotoworld Monday, 5:23 pm

    • Likely to miss 6-to-8 weeks
      Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Monday that the expectation is Betts (wrist) will be sidelined 6-to-8 weeks, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: The timeline is a rough estimate, as Roberts noted that much will depend on how Betts' fractured left wrist heals in the coming weeks. If Roberts' suggested timetable holds true, that means Betts will be out at least until late July. Miguel Rojas is expected to be the Dodgers' regular shortstop while Betts is on the shelf.

    • Move to IL official
      The Dodgers placed Betts (wrist) on the 10-day injured list Monday.

      Advice: Betts remains without a clear timeline to return to the Dodgers lineup after fracturing a bone in his left hand/wrist in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Royals, but fantasy managers should prepare for the seven-time All-Star to be out for multiple weeks. The Dodgers recalled outfielder Miguel Vargas from Triple-A Oklahoma City in a corresponding move. Vargas could serve as a short-side platoon player while he's up with the Dodgers, as manager Dave Roberts suggested after Sunday's game that Miguel Rojas will get the first chance to replace Betts' spot in the everyday lineup at shortstop.

    • Mookie Betts officially placed on IL
      Dodgers placed INF Mookie Betts on the injured list with a left-hand fracture.

      Advice: We found out the extent of Betts’ injury yesterday, and now the Dodgers make the roster move official to put Betts on the IL. He won’t require surgery, but there is no clear timeline other than the team announcing that Betts will return this year. In fantasy leagues, you simply have to hold onto Betts and hope that he’ll return for enough at-bats to make a difference for your team later this year. Miguel Vargas was called up to take his place on the active roster. Rotoworld Monday, 12:57 pm
