    • Nolan Jones (illness) returns to lineup on Friday
      Nolan Jones (illness) returned to the Rockies’ starting lineup for Friday’s series opener against the Nationals.

      Advice: The dynamic 26-year-old outfielder missed each of the team’s previous two games due to illness, but he’s right back out there in left field on Friday night. Jones will bat sixth against DJ Herz and the Nationals on Friday evening at Coors Field. Rotoworld Today, 1:45 pm

    • David Hamilton not in Red Sox’ lineup on Friday
      David Hamilton is not in the Red Sox’ starting lineup for Friday night’s soiree against the Reds in Cincinnati.

      Advice: The 26-year-old speedster has been battling discomfort in his left side, so it’s possible that they’re just easing him back into action. Or if could be that the Red Sox are facing a left-handed starter in Andrew Abbott. Either way, it wouldn’t be surprising at all to see him pinch-run and still swipe a bag or two on Friday night before all is said and done. Romy Gonzalez will start in his place at shortstop and bat second for the Red Sox on Friday evening. Rotoworld Today, 1:14 pm
       
    • Back from illness
      Jones (illness) will start in left field and bat sixth in Friday's game against the Nationals.

      Advice: Jones missed two contests because he was under the weather, but he'll give it a go Friday. The 26-year-old is 5-for-14 with a 2:8 K:BB over six games since returning from the injured list. Rotowire.com Today, 12:43 pm

    • On bench against left-hander
      Hamilton is not in the lineup for Friday's game in Cincinnati.

      Advice: The left-handed hitting Hamilton has been an everyday guy lately for the Red Sox, but he'll begin this one on the bench as the Reds send southpaw Andrew Abbott to the bump. Hamilton has also dealt with a side issue this week, so the team could be exercising caution here. Romy Gonzalez will handle shortstop Friday. Rotowire.com Today, 12:33 pm
       
    • Returns to lineup
      Chisholm (hamstring) will start in center field and bat leadoff in Friday's game against the Mariners.

      Advice: Chisholm was a late scratch from Wednesday's lineup due to a tight right hamstring, but it will be just a one-game absence as he's feeling well enough to give it a go after Thursday's off day for the Marlins. He enters play Friday having slashed .394/.447/.636 over his last 10 games. Rotowire.com Today, 12:15 pm
       
    • Smacks 10th homer
      Ramos went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Thursday's 6-5 loss to the Cardinals.

      Advice: The outfielder has been on a power surge with four homers over his last seven games, and he's added 11 RBI in that span. Ramos leads the Giants with 10 long balls this season, and every other player on the team with at least five homers has played in a minimum of 50 games compared to his 39. Ramos has added a .307/.382/.553 slash line with 35 RBI, 17 runs scored, one stolen base and seven doubles across 170 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 10:18 am
       
    • Moved up to start Sunday
      Severino will move up in the Mets' rotation to start Sunday against the Cubs, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

      Advice: Severino had been slated to start Tuesday versus his former club, the Yankees, but will be bumped up a couple days to take the ball on regular rest. David Peterson had been on turn for Sunday but now figures to take the ball next week against the Yankees. Rotowire.com Today, 9:32 am
       
    • Three hits, steal in blowout win
      Henderson went 3-for-5 with two doubles, a walk, an RBI, one stolen base and three runs scored in Thursday's 17-5 win over the Yankees.

      Advice: Henderson stayed hot Thursday, extending his hitting streak to 13 games and his on-base streak to 27 contests. Over the longer span, he's gone 32-for-106 (.302) with 17 extra-base hits, five steals and 22 walks. The 22-year-old is at a .279/.376/.589 slash line with 12 steals, 22 home runs, 50 RBI and 62 runs scored through 73 games this season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:08 pm
       
    • Heliot Ramos stays hot with 10th homer in loss
      Heliot Ramos blasted a three-run homer on Thursday in the Giants’ loss to the Cardinals at Rickwood Field in Birmingham, Alabama.

      Advice: Ramos put San Francisco on the board with a no-doubter to right field in the third inning off Cardinals starter Andre Pallante for his 10th round-tripper of the season. The 24-year-old post-hype prospect has put together a pretty remarkable breakout campaign so far, batting .307 (46-for-150) with 10 homers, 35 RBI and one steal through 39 games. He’s homered eight times in 18 games since June 1. Unreal. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:05 pm
