  • Outrighted to Triple-A
    Fletcher was sent outright to Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday.

    Advice: Fletcher appeared in five games for Atlanta after being selected from Triple-A on April 16, going 2-for-8 with two RBI. He will remain in the organization as he returns to the minors, though he no longer holds a spot on the 40-man roster. Rotowire.com 10 minutes ago
     
  • Braves outright David Fletcher to Triple-A
    Braves outrighted INF David Fletcher to Triple-A Gwinnett.

    Advice: Fletcher cleared waivers and will head back to the minors. One could speculate this means that Ozzie Albies may return to the lineup soon, which would be a boost for the Braves’ offense and fantasy managers that have him rostered. Rotoworld 10 minutes ago
     
  • Likely to make another rehab start
    Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Thursday that Manoah (shoulder) is likely to make another rehab start with Triple-A Buffalo, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Advice: Manoah was roughed up for six runs on seven hits and four walks over three innings in his latest start with Buffalo on Wednesday. Three of his four rehab outings have been poor, and overall batters have hit .406/.474/.703 off Manoah. He does not appear close to being ready to help out the major-league club.

  • Athletics place Zack Gelof on 10-day IL
    Athletics placed INF Zack Gelof (oblique) on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to April 24, with a left oblique strain.

    Advice: This doesn’t come as a surprise as the 24-year-old second baseman was diagnosed with the strain Wednesday, but it’s a disappointment for fantasy managers that have him rostered. Abraham Toro is likely to take over at second while Gelof is sidelined. Rotoworld 53 minutes ago
     
  • Placed on injured list
    The Athletics placed Gelof on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a strained left oblique.

    Advice: Gelof's injury caused him to be a late scratch from Oakland's lineup ahead of Wednesday's game, and it will now officially cost him at least another week and a half. The 24-year-old second baseman hadn't missed a start prior to Wednesday, though he's failed to make the most of his playing time, slashing just .196/.260/.337 with seven RBI across his first 101 plate appearances. Darell Hernaiz was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com 54 minutes ago
     
  • Back in big leagues
    The Athletics recalled Hernaiz from Triple-A Las Vegas on Thursday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: He's taking the roster spot vacated by Zack Gelof (oblique). Hernaiz will be a candidate for reps at second base in Gelof's absence and he can handle shortstop and third base, as well. It's unclear how high he'll be in the pecking order, however, after he managed just a .103/.156/.103 batting line before being sent down. Rotowire.com 54 minutes ago
     
  • Set to lose work with Ruiz back
    Adams is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Dodgers.

    Advice: With Keibert Ruiz (illness) returning from the 10-day injured list Thursday and starting behind the plate in his first game back, Adams' time as the Nationals' No. 1 backstop appears to have ended. He had started in 10 of the Nationals' 11 games while Ruiz was out, going 8-for-33 (.242 average) with four extra-base hits (one home run, three doubles), three runs and two RBI.

  • Gets Thursday off
    Outman is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: With the Dodgers and Nationals concluding their series with a day game after a night game and with southpaw MacKenzie Gore on the bump for Washington, Outman is one of three lefty-hitting regulars who will get the afternoon off. Outman will be joined on the bench by Gavin Lux and Max Muncy. Rotowire.com Today, 10:58 am
     
  • Will serve as 27th man
    The Astros will add Cabbage to their roster for their upcoming series against the Rockies in Mexico City, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: The Astros are permitted to add an additional position player to their roster for their two-game series in Mexico City, so they'll bring up Cabbage to provide additional depth at first base and in the outfield. The 26-year-old has spent all season at Triple-A Sugar Land, where he's slashed .271/.440/.486 with three homers and nine RBI. Rotowire.com Today, 10:58 am
