    • Bo Bichette out of lineup Sunday against Yankees
      Bo Bichette is not in the starting lineup for Sunday’s tilt against the Yankees.

      Advice: It’s a scheduled off day for Bichette after he returned off the injured list Tuesday from his calf strain. Isiah Kiner-Falefa will get the start at shortstop in his place and hit leadoff. Rotoworld 42 minutes ago

    • Rockies activate Elias Diaz (calf) off 10-day IL
      Rockies activated C Elias Diaz off the 10-day injured list.

      Advice: Diaz missed two weeks while dealing with a left calf strain. The backstop is in the starting lineup Sunday as the designated hitter, and he should be able to move behind the plate in the coming days. With Diaz on the IL, the Rockies designated infielder Elehuris Montero for assignment to make room. Rotoworld 59 minutes ago
       
    • Activated, serving as DH on Sunday
      The Rockies reinstated Diaz (calf) from the 10-day injured list Sunday. He'll serve as the Rockies' designated hitter and will bat fifth in Sunday's series finale versus the White Sox, according to Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette.

      Advice: Colorado designated infielder Elehuris Montero for assignment to clear room on the active roster for Diaz, who returns to action after missing just under three weeks with a left calf strain. Though he'll operate as the Rockies' DH in his first game back, Diaz should soon settle back into primary duties at catcher, leaving fewer opportunities to go around for Jacob Stallings and Hunter Goodman.

    • Another big day at plate
      Buxton went 2-for-4 with a double, a homer and four RBI in Saturday's win over Seattle.

      Advice: Buxton doubled home Carlos Santana with two outs in the fourth to put Minnesota on top 2-1 and later added a three-run shot in the sixth to extend the lead, giving him his fourth home run in his last five games. The outfielder has also tallied multiple hits in four of his last five, posting 11 RBI and eight runs over that stretch while striking out just one time. Rotowire.com Today, 7:56 am
       
    • Checking out of starting nine
      Hayes is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

      Advice: Jared Triolo will step in at third base while Hayes takes a seat for the series finale in Atlanta. Hayes had started in each of Pittsburgh's last three games, going 4-for-12 with a double, a walk, a stolen base, an RBI and a run. Rotowire.com Today, 7:54 am
       
    • Not in Sunday's lineup
      Bichette is out of the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Yankees.

      Advice: Per Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca, Bichette will get a scheduled day off after he started the past four games upon his return from the injured list Tuesday. Since coming off the IL, Bichette has gone 3-for-17 with three walks, a double and five runs. Isiah Kiner-Falefa will shift to shortstop while Ernie Clement receives a start at third base.

    • Notches third straight win
      Bibee (7-2) picked up the win Saturday, allowing two runs on four hits over six innings in a 7-2 victory over the Royals. He struck out three without walking a batter.

      Advice: The right-hander looked shaky early, serving up solo shots to Vinnie Pasquantino in the first inning and Michael Massey in the second, but Bibee didn't let a runner even get to second base after that. He's reeled off three straight wins, all quality starts, and he'll take a 3.47 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 109:22 K:BB through 93.1 innings into his next outing, which lines up to come at home next weekend against the Giants.

    • Byron Buxton homers, plates four to sink Mariners
      Byron Buxton went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer and four RBI on Saturday, powering the Twins to a decisive 5-1 victory over the Mariners.

      Advice: Buxton served as Minnesota’s primary offensive catalyst on Saturday night at T-Mobile Park, smacking a tie-breaking RBI double into the left-field corner off Seattle starter Bryce Miller in the fourth inning before walloping a three-run shot - his eighth round-tripper of the year - against reliever Trent Thornton a few frames later. The 30-year-old center fielder got off to an extremely frosty start at the dish this season, but he’s been on fire over the last few weeks, batting .389 (21-for-54) with five homers and two steals over his last 15 games. There will be ebbs and flows with Buxton over the next few months, but he should undoubtedly be rostered in all fantasy formats until further notice. Rotoworld Today, 3:52 am
       
    • Julio Rodríguez goes hitless Saturday vs. Twins
      Julio Rodríguez went 0-for-4 on Saturday in the Mariners’ loss to the Twins.

      Advice: It’s been a trying first half for Rodríguez, who went hitless during Saturday’s losing effort despite a scalding a 102-mph line-drive off Twins starter Pablo López in the third inning that went for a lineout. The 23-year-old franchise cornerstone’s latest hitless performance drops his full-season batting average back down to a pedestrian .248 mark. The even more problematic development for fantasy purposes is that he’s gone deep just seven times this season, with nearly half of those coming over his last 30 games. He’s mired in an extended tailspin at the dish right now, batting .138 (8-for-58) with two homers and zero steals over his last 15 games. Rotoworld Today, 3:50 am
