    • On bench as expected
      Arcia (head) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cardinals.

      Advice: Arcia was expected to miss Tuesday's game after being lifted from Monday's contest due to dizziness. Zack Short will fill in at shortstop and Arcia should be considered day-to-day moving forward. Rotowire.com Today, 1:34 pm
       
    • Orlando Arcia (dizziness) likely to rest Tuesday
      Orlando Arcia will likely get Tuesday off after leaving Monday’s game with dizziness.

      Advice: The Braves believe he was dehydrated. Zack Short will probably start at shortstop Tuesday, but Arcia might be available off the bench. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:52 pm
       
    • Likely sitting Tuesday
      Manager Brian Snitker stated that the team will probably give Arcia (head) Tuesday off, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

      Advice: Arcia received fluids after leaving Monday's game due to dizziness and didn't appear to be feeling well in the clubhouse afterward, per Toscano. "Just probably dehydrated, I guess," said Snitker. "I don't know. I know they gave him fluids, so we'll probably put him down tomorrow and let him regroup and see where he's at." Zack Short would be the obvious choice for a start at shortstop Tuesday in Arcia's place. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:35 pm
       
    • Orlando Arcia leaves game due to dizziness
      Orlando Arcia left Monday’s game in sixth inning as a precaution due to dizziness.

      Advice: Zach Short replaced Arcia at shortstop. Consider Arcia day-to-day. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:33 pm
       
    • Exits due to dizziness
      Arcia left Monday's game against the Cardinals after experiencing dizziness.

      Advice: The club notes that Arcia's removal from the matchup was only precautionary, and he's likely headed for further testing. The starting shortstop will be considered day-to-day until more information comes to light. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:27 pm
       
    • Tallies two thefts Thursday
      Taylor went 2-for-3 with a walk and two stolen bases in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Rockies.

      Advice: It's been a brutal season for Taylor, as evidenced by the fact that this was his first multi-hit game. The utility man capitalized on reaching base three times by swiping two bags after entering Thursday with just one steal this season. Taylor is still slashing a putrid .131/.230/.192 on the campaign, but he's at least shown some signs of life of late, going 5-for-15 over his past six contests. Rotowire.com Thursday, 11:34 pm

    • Goes deep again
      Swanson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and two additional RBI in Wednesday's 6-5 win over the Giants.

      Advice: Swanson went deep for the second straight game against San Francisco, giving him eight home runs for the season. The shortstop is still off to a sluggish start overall with a .214 average and .660 OPS across 64 contests, though his recent form is indicative of the type of upside that Swanson possesses, giving him plenty of fantasy appeal moving forward.

    • Dansby Swanson has two hits, homers in victory
      Dansby Swanson went 2-for-4 with a solo homer and three RBI on Wednesday, leading the Cubs to a 6-5 victory over the Giants.

      Advice: Swanson went back-to-back with Ian Happ in the fourth inning and also added a pivotal two-run single in the seventh inning, which wound up being just enough for Chicago to edge San Francisco. The 30-year-old shortstop has homered in back-to-back games after going without a round-tripper since June 7. Rotoworld Wednesday, 3:37 pm
       
    • Dansby Swanson homers in win over Giants
      Dansby Swanson hit a two-run homer on Tuesday, leading the Cubs to a 5-2 victory over the Giants.

      Advice: Swanson kicked off the scoring in this one with a two-run blast off Giants ace Logan Webb in the second inning. It was his seventh long ball of the year, but third time he’s gone deep since June 1. He’s batting just .192 (20-for-104) with four homers and one steal over his last 30 games.
