    • Kyle Schwarber (back) hoping to return on Monday
      Kyle Schwarber (back) is hopeful to return to the Phillies’ starting lineup on Monday.

      Advice: The 31-year-old slugger was lifted from Friday’s game due to soreness in his back and was held out on Saturday as a precautionary measure. It sounds like he’ll be sitting on Sunday as well. That will allow Bryce Harper to get a partial day off by serving as the team’s designated hitter. Rotoworld 14 minutes ago
       
    • Rafael Devers drives in go-ahead runs in eighth
      Rafael Devers hit a two-run double to help the Red Sox to a 4-2 win over the Nationals on Saturday.

      Advice: Devers turned a 2-2 game into a 4-2 lead for the Red Sox with a two-run double in the eighth. The 27-year-old third baseman also singled, and the pair of hits ups his line to .288/.403/.481 with 14 RBI. The power leaves a bit to be desired — if only because of lofty expectations — but Devers’ track-record suggests he’ll be among the best at his position again in 2024. Even if he maintained those numbers fantasy managers wouldn’t complain all that much. Rotoworld Today, 3:28 pm
       
    • Jordan Romano collects sixth save with scoreless 9th
      Jordan Romano struck out two without allowing a run to pick up a save Saturday against the Twins.

      Advice: Romano did give up a double, but he was able to keep the Twins off the board while picking up his sixth save of 2024. That number is more impressive when you remember Romano missed time with injury to begin the season. Rotoworld Today, 3:20 pm
       
    • Kodai Senga (shoulder) remains in holding pattern
      Mets manager Carlos Mendoza told reporters Saturday that Kodai Senga (shoulder) will need a few more bullpen sessions before progressing to facing hitters.

      Advice: Mendoza added that Senga remains in the process of tweaking his throwing mechanics, which is the reason he hasn’t faced hitters yet. It’s unclear whether this latest development will push back his season debut, but it’s a notable wrinkle as he continues his rehabilitation process. Rotoworld Today, 10:32 am

    • Sitting Saturday as expected
      Schwarber (back) will sit for Saturday's game against the Marlins, as expected.

      Advice: He left Friday's game in the ninth inning with a sore back and told reporters he'd probably take Saturday off, which is indeed the case. Cristian Pache draws the start in left field with Whit Merrifield starting at third base and Alec Bohm getting the nod at designated hitter. Schwarber's back was still a bit tight Saturday, per manager Rob Thompson, and they're taking it day by day, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports. Rotowire.com Today, 10:30 am
       
    • Kyle Schwarber (back) not in Saturday’s lineup
      Kyle Schwarber (back) is absent from the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Marlins.

      Advice: As expected, Schwarber will take a seat during Saturday’s showdown against the Marlins with lefty Jesús Luzardo toeing the rubber, following an early exit from Friday’s contest due to back soreness. The 31-year-old slugger might be ready to return later this weekend, but isn’t expected to require a lengthy absence. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now.

    • Scratched with back tightness
      Anderson was scratched from Saturday's lineup against the Phillies with lower-back tightness, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.

      Advice: Vidal Brujan will shift to shortstop while Otto Lopez enters the lineup at second base. Rotowire.com Today, 10:23 am

    • Tim Anderson scratched Saturday with back issue
      Tim Anderson has been scratched from Saturday’s lineup due to lower back tightness.

      Advice: Anderson has been a complete non-factor this season for fantasy purposes, batting .197/.234/.221 with zero homers and three steals in 128 plate appearances in his Marlins debut. The 30-year-old hasn’t been able to pull out of his unexpected mid-career tailspin and it’s fair to wonder how much longer the Miami can afford to keep rolling him out there in the midst of a rebuilding effort. It’ll be Vidal Bruján at shortstop and Otto Lopez at second base in his absence. Rotoworld Today, 10:23 am

    • Clubs seventh homer
      Lindor went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's loss to Atlanta.

      Advice: The veteran shortstop took Charlie Morton deep in the seventh innings to get the Mets on the board, but they were already facing a 4-0 deficit at that point. Lindor has had a good start to May, batting .276 (8-for-29) through eight games with 10 RBI, but on the season he still carries a disappointing .212/.282/.404 slash line with seven homers, four steals, 21 RBI and 22 runs in 37 contests.
