    • Not in Wednesday's lineup
      Merrill is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Rockies.

      Advice: The Rockies are sending southpaw Austin Gomber to the hill, so Padres manager Mike Shildt decided it would be a good day to give the left-handed-hitting Merrill a breather. Jose Azocar will patrol center field Wednesday. Rotowire.com Today, 10:24 am

    • Swipes another bag
      Merrill went 1-for-4 with a run and a stolen base in Tuesday's loss to the Rockies.

      Advice: Merrill struck out in his first two at-bats before reaching on a fielder's choice in the seventh inning and coming around to score soon thereafter. He added a single and stolen base in the eighth but was left stranded. Merrill has notched three thefts over his past three games and ranks second on San Diego with seven steals on the season.

    • George Springer returns from illness Wednesday
      George Springer is back in right field for Wednesday’s game against the Orioles.

      Advice: Springer wasn’t going to start Tuesday, but that game was rained out. He missed three of the previous four games due to an illness. Rotoworld Today, 8:30 am
       
    • Returns to lineup
      Springer (illness) will start in right field and bat leadoff in Wednesday's game in Baltimore.

      Advice: Springer has been ill and was set to sit out Tuesday for the fourth time in five games before that game was rained out, but he's feeling well enough to rejoin the starting nine Wednesday. The 34-year-old enters play Wednesday slashing just .140/.170/.160 with a 32.1 percent strikeout rate since April 25. Rotowire.com Today, 7:21 am
       
    • George Springer (illness) out again on Tuesday
      George Springer (illness) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Orioles.

      Advice: Springer is sitting out for the second straight contest and fourth time in the last five contests due to an ongoing viral illness. It’ll be on-base machine Davis Schneider, who also boasts the fifth-best barrel percentage in baseball this season, taking over the leadoff spot in his continued absence.

    • Sitting again Tuesday
      Springer (illness) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game at Baltimore.

      Advice: Springer returned to action Sunday after missing two games with an illness, and he's out of the lineup again Tuesday for the second straight day. It's unclear if he's expected to be back in action for Wednesday's series finale. Cavan Biggio is starting in right field versus the Orioles. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:15 pm
       
    • Swats third homer
      Merrill went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's loss to Colorado.

      Advice: Merrill was the only Padre with multiple hits in the contest, and his seventh-inning solo shot brought the team to within one run, though it turned out to be the final tally of the game. The rookie has notched consecutive multi-hit performances and has multiple hits in four of his past eight contests overall, so he could be back on the rise following an eight-game stretch from late April to early May during which he went 1-for-23 at the plate. Merrill still has a strong .291/.342/.403 slash line along with three homers, 17 RBI, 18 runs and six stolen bases on the season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:42 am

    • Tucker has two hits Monday
      Kyle Tucker went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI in the Astros’ win over the Athletics on Monday.



      Advice: The double was Tucker’s eighth of the season. He has carried the Astros so far this year. Tucker’s average is up to .277 and his OPS is up to .994. He has another three games to beat up on the Athletics this week.

    • Daulton Varsho powers Blue Jays past Orioles
      Daulton Varsho went 1-for-5 with a solo homer and two RBI on Monday, leading the Blue Jays to a 3-2 win over the Orioles.

      Advice: Varsho came through in a pair of clutch situations, walloping a game-tying solo shot -- his seventh big fly of the season -- off Orioles relief ace Yennier Cano in the eighth inning before delivered the go-ahead run with a 10th-inning ground out. The 27-year-old is unlikely to add much from a batting average standpoint, but his 20-homer power and ability to chip in double-digit steals is appealing for fantasy managers in deeper mixed leagues.
