    • Jones strikes out eight in seven innings in win
      Jared Jones allowed two runs in seven innings and got the win in the Pirates’ 4-3 victory over the Rays on Saturday.



      Advice: Jones gave up three hits, walked three and struck out eight. Tampa Bay couldn’t get much offense going against Jones. The Rays scored on an RBI groundout by Josh Lowe in the first inning and an RBI single by Ben Rortvedt in the fourth inning. The win was his fifth of the season. Jones’ ERA is down to 3.66 with a SO:BB of 93:25 this year. The 22-year-old rookie right-hander is set to face the Braves on the road next weekend.

    • Jared Jones fires seven strong in win over Rays
      Jared Jones struck out eight while allowing two runs in seven innings Saturday to get a win over the Rays.

      Advice: Jones gave up just three hits, and while he did issue three walks, the strikeouts were able to get him out of the majority of jams. The only blemishes were a fielder’s choice that scored a run in the first and an RBI single by Ben Rortvedt in the fourth. The rookie right-hander continues to impress, and his ERA is now a solid 3.66. Jones gets Atlanta next weekend. Rotoworld Today, 3:15 pm
       
    • Guarantees return Sunday
      Profar (knee) is available off the bench Saturday against the Brewers and will "100 percent" be playing in Sunday's series finale, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

      Advice: Profar was removed from Friday's game with a left knee issue and was held out of the starting lineup Saturday. However, he'll be back in action Sunday and appears to have avoided significant injury. He's in the midst of a breakout campaign at the age of 31, slashing .320/.415/.483 with 10 home runs across 317 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 1:49 pm
       
    • Held out of starting lineup
      Profar (knee) is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Brewers.

      Advice: Profar was removed for a pinch runner late in Friday's game due issues with his knee. Considering he's dealt with an injury to his left knee recently, his removal could be precautionary. However, Tyler Wade will fill left field Saturday. Rotowire.com Today, 1:19 pm
       
    • Jurickson Profar (knee) not in lineup on Saturday
      Jurickson Profar (knee) is not in the Padres’ starting lineup for Saturday night’s matchup against the Brewers.

      Advice: The 31-year-old outfielder aggravated his left knee injury during Friday’s battle against the Brewers. The good news is that he hasn’t been placed on the injured list. Profar has been playing through the knee issue for a while now and believes that he’ll be able to return to the lineup for Sunday’s series finale. He’s considered day-to-day.

    • Josh Jung (wrist) to take batting practice Tuesday
      Rangers manager Bruce Bochy told reporters Josh Jung (wrist) will take batting practice on Tuesday to determine whether he’s ready to return.

      Advice: Jung has been dealing with some minor soreness in his surgically-repaired wrist, which isn’t uncommon at this stage of his rehabilitation process. He’ll take batting practice early next week to determine whether he’s ready to return or needs some additional time in the minor leagues. Rotoworld Today, 11:37 am

    • Not starting Saturday
      Rodriguez is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Marlins.

      Advice: Rodriguez will be in the dugout Saturday for what is a scheduled off-day for the 23-year-old outfielder, per Daniel Kramer of MLB.com. For the month of June, Rodriguez is slashing .260/.325/.397 with 12 runs, three home runs and eight RBI over 73 at-bats. Dylan Moore, Dominic Canzone and Luke Raley will man the outfield Saturday.

    • Tyler O’Neill not in Saturday’s lineup vs. Reds
      Tyler O’Neill is not in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Reds.

      Advice: O’Neill gets a routine maintenance day with Wilyer Abreu back in right field on Saturday afternoon against the Reds. The 29-year-old has homered four times over his last seven games and should be back in there for Sunday’s series finale. Rotoworld Today, 10:41 am
       
    • Heading to bench Saturday
      O'Neill is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Reds, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

      Advice: O'Neill will hit the bench after going 0-for-7 with two walks over the Red Sox's previous two contests, but he's been excellent overall since making his return from a three-game absence due to a knee issue earlier this month, slashing .273/.342/.697 since June 12. Even though he finds himself as the odd man out of the Boston outfield Saturday while the team brings Wilyer Abreu (ankle) back from the injured list, O'Neill should continue to handle a near-everyday role for the Red Sox.
