    • Gets breather versus LHP
      Pederson isn't in Arizona's lineup for Friday's game against the Giants.

      Advice: Left-hander Blake Snell will toe the slab for San Francisco, so the lefty-hitting Pederson will take a seat Friday. Blaze Alexander will fill in as the Snakes' designated hitter while Kevin Newman starts at shortstop and bats ninth. Rotowire.com 36 minutes ago
       
    • Not starting against southpaw
      Muncy isn't in the Dodgers' lineup for Friday's game against the Mets.

      Advice: With southpaw Sean Manaea on the mound for the Mets, Muncy will retreat to the bench to begin Friday's contest. Miguel Rojas will take his spot at the hot corner and bat eighth. Rotowire.com 48 minutes ago

    • Lourdes Gurriel Jr. getting night off on Thursday
      Lourdes Gurriel Jr. is not in the lineup for Thursday’s series opener against the Giants.

      Advice: It appears to be a routine off day for Gurriel with Jake McCarthy getting the nod in left field to face Giants ace Logan Webb. The 30-year-old slugger is batting .263 (20-for-76) with five homers, 20 RBI and two steals across 84 plate appearances through 18 games. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:47 pm
       
    • Sharp in second win
      Pepiot (2-2) earned the win against the Angels on Thursday, allowing one run on three hits and three walks over six innings. He struck out seven.

      Advice: It was a strong bounce-back effort from Pepiot after he allowed five runs in a loss to San Francisco in his last start. The right-hander blanked the Angels through five innings Thursday, ultimately allowing a lone run on a sacrifice fly in the sixth. It's been a mixed bag for Pepiot through four starts this year, though his underlying metrics are impressive. He lowered his ERA to 4.37 with an encouraging 1.01 WHIP and 27:8 K:BB across 22.2 innings this season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:10 pm
       
    • Taking seat Thursday
      Gurriel is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Giants.

      Advice: The Giants are sending ace right-hander Logan Webb to the hill, so it's not a bad time for Arizona to give the right-handed-hitting Gurriel a day off. Jake McCarthy and Randal Grichuk will occupy the corner outfield spots for the Diamondbacks. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:49 pm
       
    • Ryan Pepiot holds Angels to one run in victory
      Ryan Pepiot held the Angels to one run over six innings with seven strikeouts Thursday while picking up a win.

      Advice: Pepiot did walk three, but he allowed only three hits and was able to limit the damage sans a sacrifice fly from Miguel Sano in the sixth. This was a much better effort for the 26-year-old than his struggles Saturday against the Giants, and he’s allowed just a run in two of his last three efforts. Pepiot’s shaky command offers volatility, but his swing-and-miss stuff brings reward with the risk. He gets the Tigers next week. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:37 pm
       
    • First day off Thursday
      Kwan is out of the lineup for Thursday's contest in Boston.

      Advice: Kwan will get his first day off of the season. David Fry will start in left field in place of Kwan, while Andres Gimenez serves as Cleveland's leadoff batter. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:36 am

    • Smacks fifth homer
      De La Cruz went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's loss to the Mariners.

      Advice: De La Cruz provided the lone run for the Reds via a solo shot off Bryce Miller in the top of the second, giving the shortstop five home runs already on the season. Four of those long balls have come over his last 10 games, though De La Cruz is just 2-for-17 (.117) at the plate over his last five. He's also struck out multiple times in three of his last five contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:57 am

    • Homers in two straight
      Pederson entered Wednesday's game as a pinch hitter and went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in 5-3 loss to the Cubs.

      Advice: Pederson's ninth-inning blast closed the gap but was not enough for a Diamondbacks team that squandered opportunities with runners on base and made three errors. It was the second consecutive game with a home run for Pederson, who has hit safely in four of the last five contests. That stretch includes three of his four extra-base hits for the season. Pederson is slashing .333/.467/.576 over 46 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:55 am
