    • Gleyber Torres (groin) held out of lineup Friday
      Gleyber Torres (groin) was held out of the Yankees’ starting lineup for Friday’s tilt against the Braves.

      Advice: The 27-year-old infielder made an early exit on Thursday due to tightness in his groin. While it’s considered a minor issue and isn’t likely to land him on the injured list, he’s going to need at least a couple of days before he’s ready to return to action. Oswaldo Cabrera will cover second base in his absence on Friday night and will bat ninth against Chris Sale and the Braves. Rotoworld 5 minutes ago

    • Sent on rehab assignment
      Bart (thumb) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Bart will see game action for the first time since being placed on the 10-day IL on May 28, a significant step forward in his recovery from a Grade 1 sprained thumb on his glove hand. Once he's cleared to rejoin the Pirates, Bart should push Jason Delay out of the catching mix. Rotowire.com 7 minutes ago

    • Andrew Benintendi gets a night off on Friday
      Andrew Benintendi is not in the White Sox’ starting lineup for Friday’s series opener against the Tigers in Motown.

      Advice: It’s unusually to see Benintendi on the pine against a right-handed starter, but it looks to be nothing more than a regular day of maintenance for the 29-year-old outfielder. Tommy Pham will slide over and cover left field, with Gavin Sheets drawing a start in right and Oscar Colas getting a rare start in center field for the White Sox. Rotoworld 7 minutes ago
       
    • Absent from lineup again
      Velazquez is not in the lineup for Friday's contest versus the Rangers.

      Advice: The hot-hitting Freddy Fermin will make a second straight start at designated hitter. Velazquez has just a .401 OPS so far in June and has now been absent from the lineup for seven of 18 games this month. Rotowire.com 8 minutes ago
       
    • Astros recalled OF Joey Loperfido from Triple-A
      Astros recalled OF Joey Loperfido from Triple-A Sugar Land.

      Advice: The Astros needed a position player with the amount of injuries they’ve had. Loperfido hit .333 with one home run and five RBI in 39 at-bats in his first taste of the majors earlier this year. The 25-year-old could have fantasy value in mixed leagues if he’s able to stick in the lineup this time around. It’s either said than done, but he’ll have a real chance with Jose Abreu out of the picture and Kyle Tucker still on the injured list. Rotoworld 10 minutes ago
       
    • Ketel Marte absent from Diamondbacks lineup Friday
      Ketel Marte is absent from the Diamondbacks’ starting lineup for Friday night’s series opener against the Phillies in Philadelphia.

      Advice: It appears to be nothing more than a routine day of rest for the hard-hitting second baseman. Blaze Alexander will draw a rare start at second base in his place and will bat eighth for the Diamondbacks against Taijuan Walker and the Phillies on Friday evening in Philadelphia.

    • Bryson Stott sits against southpaw on Friday night
      Bryson Stott is not in the Phillies’ starting lineup for Friday night’s showdown against the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: With left-hander Jordan Montgomery toeing the slab for the Diamondbacks, the Phillies will use it as an opportunity to give Stott a breather. Fellow left-handed hitters Brandon Marsh, David Dahl and Garrett Stubbs also find themselves on the pine for the start of this one. Edmundo Sosa will start in Stott’s place at second base and will bat sixth for the Phillies on Friday night. Rotoworld 11 minutes ago

    • Removed from 40-man roster
      The Astros designated Henley for assignment Friday.

      Advice: A spot on the 40-man roster was required for the addition of Friday's starting pitcher, Jake Bloss. Henley was hammered in a spot start earlier this season, allowing five runs while recording just one out. He'll likely clear waivers. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago
       
    • Headed to IL
      Caratini (left hip flexor strain) was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday, retroactive to Thursday.

      Advice: Caratini was lifted from Wednesday's game against the White Sox with soreness in his left quad, but imaging revealed he's in fact dealing with a left hip flexor strain. Cesar Salazar should see some catching work behind Yainer Diaz while Caratini is sidelined. Rotowire.com 16 minutes ago
