  • Alec Bohm leaves game with right hip tightness
    Alec Bohm was removed from Saturday night’s game against the Giants due to tightness in his right hip.

    Advice: The Phillies are calling his early exit only a precautionary measure, and for the time being the 27-year-old third baseman is considered day-to-day. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his status on Sunday though just to be on the safe side. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:04 pm

  • Nolan Arenado reaches five times, homers in loss
    Nolan Arenado went 3-for-3 with a three-run homer and two walks on Saturday against the White Sox.

    Advice: That’s back-to-back games with two hits and three RBI for Arenado. He knocked a base hit in the first inning, then drew a walk in the fourth. With two runners on base in the fifth, he took Erick Fedde deep for a three-run homer, his second of the season. Arenado drew another walk in the eighth and knocked a base hit in the tenth to reach base in all five plate appearances. The 33-year-old third baseman is slashing .290/.357/.403 with the two homers and 19 RBI across 140 plate appearances. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:44 pm
     
  • Removed with hip tightness
    Bohm departed Saturday's game versus the Giants after the third inning due to right hip tightness, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirery reports.

    Advice: The Phillies are saying Bohm's removal was precautionary, and it's worth noting they were leading 9-1 at the time and the conditions at Citizens Bank Park were poor following a rain delay. It sounds like it's safe to call Bohm day-to-day, but the team could offer more clarity after the contest. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:43 pm

  • Fielding grounders, throwing
    Manager Torey Lovullo said Saturday that Perdomo (knee) has been fielding live groundballs and has also resumed throwing, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    Advice: Perdomo still has yet to resume hitting, as the Diamondbacks are going to take a cautious approach with his rehab just three weeks removed from knee surgery. The 24-year-old infielder remains without a definite return timeline, but Lovullo noted he is encouraged by the progress Perdomo has made so far. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:59 pm

  • Optioned to Triple-A
    The Padres optioned Pauley to Triple-A El Paso on Saturday.

    Advice: Pauley will be squeezed off the major-league roster following the acquisition of Luis Arraez from Miami. Pauley has been fantastic in the minors but struggled to get going upon joining the Padres, slashing .125/.125/313 across 32 plate appearances. The 23-year-old infielder may still return to the big leagues later this season as a bench piece, but San Diego's loaded infield unit will make it hard for him to contribute on a regular basis.

  • Padres option Graham Pauley back to Triple-A
    Padres optioned INF/OF Graham Pauley to Triple-A El Paso.

    Advice: With Luis Arraez joining the Padres on Saturday, someone needed to get the boot from the active roster and Pauley was the odd-man out. The 23-year-old will return to an everyday role at Triple-A El Paso until he’s called upon once again. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:11 pm
     
  • Christopher Morel continues power surge vs. Brewers
    Christopher Morel went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer and a walk on Saturday against the Brewers.

    Advice: After drawing a walk in the first inning, Morel took Tobias Myers deep for a two-run homer in the third to extend the Cubs lead. Morel can certainly hit homers in bunches, as he’s now gone yard in three straight games and four of his last six. The 24-year-old third baseman is slashing .213/.292/.426 with seven homers, 20 runs scored, 20 RBI, and three steals across 137 plate appearances. Despite the low batting average, Morel has significantly cut down his strikeout rate so far this season, a good sign that we can see his numbers improve as we get into the summer.

  • Luis Rengifo sits due to illness on Saturday
    Luis Rengifo was held out of the Angels’ starting lineup on Saturday due to illness.

    Advice: The versatile 27-year-old has been under the weather for a couple of days, so skipper Ron Washington thought it was best to give him a night off. Brandon Drury returned to the Angels lineup to play second base on Saturday while Ehire Adrianza will cover third base and bat second for the Halos against Ben Lively and the Guardians.

  • Idle versus LHP
    Rojas isn't in the Mariners' lineup for Saturday's game against the Astros.

    Advice: Left-hander Framber Valdez will take the mound Saturday for Houston, sending the left-handed bat of Rojas to the bench for the beginning of the game. Luis Urias will cover the hot corner instead and bat eighth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:58 pm
