    • Nick Castellanos homers as Phillies top Rangers
      Nick Castellanos went 2-for-4 with a solo homer in a 5-2 win for the Phillies on Thursday over the Rangers.

      Advice: Castellanos extended the Phillies’ lead to 5-2 with a solo blast in the seventh inning. The veteran outfielder has been able to provide five homers thus far in 2024, and the pair of hits see his average increase to a still-disappointing .206 mark. Castellanos is a good bet to be (much) better over the final two-thirds of the 2024 campaign. Rotoworld Today, 1:20 pm
       
    • Rays waiting on Josh Lowe (side) IL decision
      Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports the Rays will wait until Friday before making a decision whether Josh Lowe (side) will require a trip to the injured list.

      Advice: Topkin added that an injured list stint seems likely, but Tampa Bay wants to wait and see how he feels on Friday before making a final decision. Rays manager Kevin Cash delivered an ominous “not ideal” statement to reporters following Lowe’s early exit from Wednesday’s game against the Red Sox due to right side tightness. The 26-year-old five-category impact fantasy contributor dealt with a similar issue back in spring training and underwent an MRI on Thursday to determine the severity of the issue. There should be an update on his status at some point prior to Friday’s series opener against the Royals. Rotoworld Today, 1:15 pm
       
    • Headed for MRI
      Lowe will undergo an MRI on his right side Thursday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

      Advice: Manager Kevin Cash labeled Lowe's injury as a "right side strain," though the exact nature of the outfielder's issue will become known once his MRI results come back. Lowe landed on the injured list during spring training due to a right oblique strain and missed the first month-plus of the regular season, and it's possible he could require another stint on the IL due to his latest flareup.

    • Josh Lowe (side) heading for MRI on Thursday
      Rays’ manager Kevin Cash told reporters after Wednesday’s game that Josh Lowe will undergo an MRI exam on his injured side on Thursday.

      Advice: Cash also termed the injury “not ideal” saying that it’s being called a right side strain for the time being. We’ll know more on Thursday regarding how long Lowe may be sidelined for, but it sounds like a return trip to the injured list is going to be in order. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:42 pm
       
    • Exits with side tightness
      Lowe was removed from Wednesday's game against the Red Sox due to right side tightness, Ryan Bass of Bally Sports Sun reports.

      Advice: The Rays are officially marking Lowe as day-to-day, so the team doesn't seem too concerned with his injury. Tampa Bay doesn't play Thursday, which will give the 26-year-old an extra day to rest before potentially returning Friday without missing any games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:52 pm
       
    • Josh Lowe leaves game with right side tightness
      Josh Lowe was pulled from Wednesday’s contest against the Red Sox in the second inning due to tightness in his right side.

      Advice: Remember, Lowe just returned from the injured list in the first week of May after missing significant time with an oblique injury. For now, the Rays are calling him day-to-day, though injuries to the side can be tricky. A lot will probably depend on how he’s feeling on Thursday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:44 pm
       
    • Josh Lowe leaves game due to possible injury
      Josh Lowe was removed from Wednesday night’s battle against the Red Sox in the second inning due to an apparent injury.

      Advice: No word yet on exactly what happened here, but the dynamic 26-year-old outfielder was pinch-hit for by Jonny DeLuca in the second inning. The Rays should provide an update on Lowe’s status shortly. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:27 pm
       
    • Clubs homer
      Nimmo went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored during Sunday's 7-3 win over the Marlins.

      Advice: After going 0-for-12 during the Mets' series against Philadelphia, Nimmo has started the Marlins series 2-for-8 (.250) with a double, a two-run home run and five total runs scored. Nimmo's homer Sunday came off Anthony Bender in the ninth inning and marked the outfielder's seventh of the season. In 193 plate appearances, Nimmo owns a .777 OPS.

    • Brandon Nimmo homers in win
      Brandon Nimmo went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run, walk, and two runs scored in the Mets win over the Marlins on Sunday.

      Advice: Newly minted three-hitter Brandon Nimmo is having a power renaissance with five home runs in his last 17 games. Hitting third will give him a lot more RBI chances compared to when he hit leadoff. The Mets have scored seven and nine runs in the two games since their lineup shakeup, so the new order may hold moving forward.
