• Santiago Espinal homers in win over Pirates
    Santiago Espinal went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a win over the Pirates on Tuesday.

    Advice: Espinal’s home run accounted for the only runs the Reds would score, or need to score, on Tuesday. It was Espinal’s first start in over a week and just his fourth home run of the season to go along with a .204 average. He remains off fantasy radars, but it was a good day for him today.

  • Resting Tuesday
    Toro isn't in the Athletics' lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Royals.

    Advice: Toro will sit down for Tuesday's series opener after going 2-for-14 during Oakland's previous series against the Twins. Tyler Nevin, who was just promoted from Triple-A Las Vegas, will take over at third base and bat seventh. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:51 pm

  • Angels activate Brandon Drury from injured list
    Angels activated INF Brandon Drury from the 10-day injured list.

    Advice: Cole Tucker was dropped to make room. Drury missed 5 1/2 weeks with a strained left hamstring. He was hitting only .173/.230/.240 in 113 plate appearances before going down, and Angels manager Ron Washington said over the weekend that he’d be benched if he didn’t produce pretty quickly after coming off the IL. Expect him to get regular playing time for now between second base and DH. Rotoworld Monday, 2:52 pm
     
  • Returns from injured list
    The Angels activated Drury (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

    Advice: Drury was sidelined for nearly six weeks of action with a left hamstring strain but is ready to rejoin the Angels after playing in six rehab games. Most of Drury's starts with the Angels will probably come at second base, but first base, third base and designated hitter are options, as well. Rotowire.com Monday, 2:47 pm
     
  • Getting day off versus lefty
    Valdez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Blue Jays.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Valdez will get the night off while the Blue Jays bring southpaw Yusei Kikuchi to the bump. The freshly activated Romy Gonzalez (hamstring) will get the start at second base in place of Valdez. Rotowire.com Monday, 2:42 pm
  • Activated, included in lineup
    The Red Sox activated Gonzalez (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

    Advice: Gonzalez has missed most of June with a hamstring issue but was cleared to rejoin the Red Sox following a brief rehab assignment. He'll check back into the starting nine at second base and as the No. 6 hitter in Monday's series opener as the Blue Jays send lefty Yusei Kikuchi to the mound. Gonzalez is expected to fill the short side of a platoon at the keystone with Enmanuel Valdez. Rotowire.com Monday, 1:35 pm
     
  • Red Sox activate Romy Gonzalez from 10-day IL
    Red Sox activated INF/OF Romy Gonzalez from the 10-day injured list.

    Advice: Gonzalez missed two weeks with a hamstring strain. He’ll mostly play second base against lefties for now. Once Vaughn Grissom returns, the Red Sox figure to demote either Gonzalez or Enmanuel Valdez. Rotoworld Monday, 1:32 pm
     
  • Exiting lineup Monday
    Horwitz is out of the lineup for Monday's game versus the Red Sox.

    Advice: Horwitz had started each of the last seven games versus right-handers upon his promotion from Triple-A Buffalo on June 7 and batted either first or second in all of those contests, but he will begin Monday's series opener on the bench. Davis Schneider gets the call at second base and will serve as the Blue Jays' leadoff batter against Red Sox right-hander Nick Pivetta. Rotowire.com Monday, 12:43 pm
  • Exiting lineup versus lefty
    Gorman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Marlins.
