    • Held out again Friday
      Nimmo (illness) remains out of the lineup for Friday's contest in Miami.

      Advice: Nimmo was a late scratch from Thursday's lineup due to a stomach bug and he's evidently still not feeling well enough to play. With Nimmo resting, the Mets will go with Tyrone Taylor in left field and in the leadoff spot. Rotowire.com 34 minutes ago
       
    • Young on the bench Friday
      Jacob Young is on the bench for the Nationals against the Phillies on Friday.

      Advice: Young was in the leadoff spot when the Nationals last played on Wednesday. He’s hitting .262 with no home runs this year, but he also has 14 stolen bases in 34 games. Rotoworld 50 minutes ago
       
    • Not in Friday's lineup
      Young is absent from the lineup for Friday's game in Philadelphia.

      Advice: Young had started eight of the last nine contests, including six of them from the leadoff spot. He'll get a breather Friday, though, as Victor Robles patrols center field for the Nationals. Rotowire.com Today, 12:16 pm
       
    • Brandon Nimmo scratched from Thursday’s lineup
      Brandon Nimmo has been scratched from the lineup for Thursday’s showdown against the Phillies due to illness.

      Advice: Nimmo is dealing with a stomach bug, which will keep him out for at least Thursday’s contest. It’ll be Tyrone Taylor moving up to the leadoff spot and DJ Stewart taking over in left field. He’s presumably day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:28 pm
       
    • Scratched from lineup
      Nimmo was scratched from the Mets' lineup prior to Thursday's game against the Phillies due to a stomach illness, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.

      Advice: Nimmo wasn't feeling well heading into Thursday's contest, so the Mets will give him the day off to recover. In the meantime, DJ Stewart will take Nimmo's place in left field and bat fifth, moving Tyrone Taylor into the leadoff spot. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:22 pm
       
    • Pilfers 14th bag
      Young went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Wednesday's loss to the White Sox.

      Advice: Getting another start in the leadoff spot, Young swiped his 14th bag of the season, tying him for fifth in the majors behind Elly De La Cruz (26), Jose Caballero (17), Brice Turang (16) and Bobby Witt (15). Young only has two successful steals through 12 games in May though, as his issues getting on base consistently are catching up to him -- he's slashing only .167/.295/.222 on the month. The Nationals have been shut out in back-to-back games and sit in the bottom six in runs scored and team OPS on the season, and unless Young heats up at the plate, his time at the top of the order is likely about to end.

    • Sitting Wednesday
      Adell isn't in the Angels' lineup for Wednesday's game versus St. Louis, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Adell will sit out the series finale after going 1-for-7 with a run scored and two strikeouts through the first two games. While he rests, Kevin Pillar will fill the open spot in right field while batting fifth. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 3:51 pm
       
    • Power trending up
      Arozarena went 1-for-5 with a solo home run and two runs scored Tuesday against the Red Sox.

      Advice: Arozarena slugged his eighth home run of the season and fifth in his last 11 games. He's also stolen three bags in that span. While his counting stats have been trending positively, Arozarena has still struck out at a 31.5 percent clip in May, leading to a .205 batting average for the month.

    • Smacks sixth homer
      Joe went 1-for-3 with a walk, a solo home run and two runs scored Tuesday against the Brewers.

      Advice: Joe returned to the lineup after sitting Monday and has started nine of Pittsburgh's 12 games in May. He's hit .294 with three home runs, seven runs scored and seven RBI in that span, and he lifted his sixth long ball of the season Monday. Joe should continue to get regular run at both first base and in right field as one of the Pirates' more productive hitters. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 7:18 am
