    • J.T. Realmuto out Sunday with ‘banged up’ knee
      J.T. Realmuto is out of the lineup Sunday against the Marlins while dealing with a knee issue.

      Advice: Phillies manager Rob Thomson told reporters before Sunday’s game that Realmuto showed up to the park with a “banged up” knee, so he decided to give the backstop a day off. Thomson also said that the absence was precautionary, so there’s a good chance Realmuto is back in the coming days. Garrett Stubbs is hitting ninth and catching Sunday.

    • Nursing knee injury
      Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Realmuto is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins due to a knee injury, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: More specifically, Thomson said Realmuto's knee was "a little banged up" when he reported to the ballpark earlier Sunday, so the Phillies opted to give him the series finale off. The skipper noted that he's not worried about Realmuto, but fantasy managers will still want to verify that the star catcher is back in the starting nine for Monday's game against the Mets before locking him into weekly fantasy lineups. Garrett Stubbs will replace Realmuto behind the plate Sunday. Rotowire.com Today, 8:51 am
       
    • Sitting in second straight game
      Mullins is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Mullins is on the bench for the second straight game against a right-handed starting pitcher, with Colton Cowser once again sliding over from left field to cover center field in Mullins' stead. The Orioles haven't indicated that Mullins is dealing with an injury or illness, so the back-to-back days out of the lineup likely indicate that he's at risk of moving into a part-time role, if he hasn't already. Mullins is off to a rough start to the season, having posted a career-low .611 OPS and career-worst 25.2 percent strikeout rate across 131 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 7:56 am
       
    • Cedric Mullins out again Sunday against D-Backs
      Cedric Mullins is not in the starting lineup for Sunday’s game against the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Mullins is sitting for a second consecutive game against a right-handed pitcher. Colton Cowser is patrolling center field Sunday against Zac Gallen and he’ll hit sixth. Mullins has not been effective thus far in 2024 with a .611 OPS in 37 games, and he’s in danger of losing more playing time in a talented Baltimore outfield. Rotoworld Today, 7:11 am
       
    • Homers, plates four
      Arozarena went 2-for-3 with a home run and four RBI in Saturday's victory over the Yankees.

      Advice: Arozarena made a baserunning blunder following a walk in the first inning when he overslid the second base bag while trying to advance on a flyout. He immediately made up for it in his next plate appearance with an opposite-field, three-run homer. Arozarena later doubled in another run and scored again to cap off a big night. While Arozarena has still been striking out too much this month (30.8 percent), he now has four home runs in his first nine May contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:20 pm
       
    • Randy Arozarena homers, plates four to lead Rays
      Randy Arozarena homered and drove in four runs on Saturday, leading the Rays to a 7-2 victory over the Yankees in Tampa Bay.

      Advice: The 29-year-old outfielder clobbered a 385-foot (102.5 mph EV) three-run shot off of Nestor Cortes in the third inning, giving the Rays a 4-2 lead that they would never relinquish. He also added a run-scoring double in the seventh inning and scored on a sacrifice fly by Isaac Paredes. The 29-year-old outfielder finished the afternoon 2-for-3 plus a walk, raising his season-slash to a still horrifying .154/.253/.329 to go along with seven homers, 17 RBI and six stolen bases.

    • Getting breather Saturday
      Stanton is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

      Advice: Stanton went 2-for-4 in the series opener Friday. Trent Grisham will start in center field while Aaron Judge shifts to DH against Rays right-hander Zack Littell. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:36 am
       
    • Not starting Saturday
      Mullins is not in the Orioles' lineup for Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

      Advice: Mullins has struggled over his last three outings, going 1-for-12 with five strikeouts over that span. Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Mullins is "pressing big-time," per Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com, though Mullins is still available off the bench for Saturday's contest. Heston Kjerstad will start at left field while Colton Cowser shifts to center field. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:37 am
       
    • Two more RBI
      Steer went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double and two RBI in Friday's 4-2 win over San Francisco.

      Advice: Steer's first-inning, two-out double plated the Reds' first run, then his third-inning single tied the game. He has four RBI in the last two games and leads the Reds with 27 runs driven in. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:27 am
