    • Notches seventh win
      Burnes (7-2) earned the win Monday against the Rays, allowing two unearned runs on five hits and one walk over seven innings. He struck out six.

      Advice: Burnes dazzled in the series finale, shutting down Tampa Bay to collect his ninth consecutive quality start and 11th overall. The only blemish on the 29-year-old's evening was a two-homer yielded to Alex Jackson that drove in a pair of unearned runs. Overall, Burnes now sports a 2.08 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 82:22 K:BB in 86.2 innings while being tied for the league lead in quality starts. The Baltimore ace is currently scheduled to make his next start against Phillies at home this weekend. Rotowire.com Today, 6:36 pm
       
    • Corbin Burnes spins seven frames to defeat Rays
      Corbin Burnes was charged with a pair of unearned runs over seven innings on Monday in a win over the Rays.

      Advice: Burnes served up a two-run homer to light-hitting Rays backstop Alex Jackson in the second inning after a two-out error by second baseman Jordan Westburg allowed the frame to continue. He kept Tampa Bay’s lineup off the scoreboard otherwise into the late stages of the contest, outdueling opposing starter Ryan Pepiot in the process, to pick up his seventh win of the year. He finished with six strikeouts and only issued one walk. He’ll bring a stellar 2.08 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 82/22 K/BB ratio across 86 2/3 innings (14 starts) into a home outing on Saturday against the red-hot Phillies. Rotoworld Today, 6:32 pm
       
    • Expected back Tuesday
      San Francisco is optimistic that Chapman (hamstring) will be back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against Houston, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

      Advice: Chapman is missing his second straight contest Monday due to a hamstring cramp, but his absence isn't expected to last much longer. The Giants figure to re-evaluate the third baseman in the morning before making a final decision on his availability for Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 5:13 pm
       
    • Sheds crutches
      Tucker (lower leg) is no longer using crutches and remains hopeful for a Friday return, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: As Rome points out, Tucker has yet to be cleared to resume baseball activities, but the team is optimistic about his chances of being activated after missing the 10-day minimum. Houston should have a better idea of an exact return date for Tucker later in the week. Rotowire.com Today, 5:10 pm

    • Kyle Tucker (shin) off crutches, aiming for Friday
      Kyle Tucker is off crutches as he deals with his right shin contusion, and the Astros believe there’s a chance he’ll return from the IL when eligible on Friday.

      Advice: No rehab stint here. Tucker hasn’t done any running yet, but he should need only one good day on the field before rejoining Houston’s lineup. Rotoworld Today, 5:03 pm

    • Jordan Romano (elbow) resumes throwing
      Jordan Romano resumed throwing the last two days and could get back on a mound later this week.

      Advice: Romano, out with elbow inflammation, is eligible to come the IL on Saturday, but there are no plans to activate him then. If everything goes well, he could be back before the end of the month. Rotoworld Today, 4:04 pm
       
    • Out of lineup Monday
      Chapman (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Astros, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Chapman will sit for a second straight game due to a hamstring cramp he sustained in Saturday's game against the Rangers. Casey Schmitt will start at the hot corner and bat ninth against Houston right-hander Spencer Arrighetti. Rotowire.com Today, 3:18 pm
       
    • Gets breather after big game
      Rutschman is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Tampa Bay.

      Advice: Rutschman started the first three games of the series at catcher and had been in the lineup for each of the last 10 contests for the Orioles. However, after going 3-for-5 with a grand slam and a career-high six RBI in Sunday's 9-2 win, Rutschman will get a breather Monday as Baltimore goes for the rare four-game sweep. James McCann will pick up the start behind the dish. Rotowire.com Today, 12:24 pm
