    • Idle Thursday
      Diaz isn't in the Rays' lineup Thursday versus the Royals.

      Advice: Diaz is getting a day off Thursday after going 1-for-9 in the first two games of the series versus the Royals. This is his first absence from the lineup since May 25. Isaac Paredes will shift over from third to first base, and Jose Caballero will enter the lineup at third in the ninth spot. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:27 pm

    • Jose Miranda goes 5-for-5 to lead Twins
      Jose Miranda finished 5-for-5 with three doubles and four runs scored Thursday as the Twins topped the Tigers 12-3 in a rain-shortened game.

      Advice: The contest was delayed in the bottom of the seventh and eventually called. Miranda has hit in eight straight games, raising his average to .312. Over the last 30 days, he’s hitting a robust .379/.434/.586 with as many extra-base hits as strikeouts (13). It seems like last year’s struggles really were all about his troublesome right shoulder, and he’s back looking very much like a long-term regular now. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:31 pm

    • Mark Canha snaps six-game hitless streak
      Mark Canha singled Thursday to snap a six-game hitless streak.

      Advice: To celebrate, they’re planning fireworks for after the game. Canha is 3-for-39 in his last 12 games. His last extra-base hit came June 17, and he hasn’t homered since May 11. It’s also not like he’s any longer particularly useful on defense at age 35, and it’d seem to be worth it for the Tigers to give Parker Meadows or Spencer Torkelson another shot in his place.

    • Steals bag in second straight game
      Goldschmidt went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and two strikeouts in Thursday's 3-2 over the Pirates.

      Advice: Goldschmidt had two hits and a steal in Wednesday's contest, and with another swipe Thursday, it became the 13th time in his career he's recorded stolen bases in back-to-back games. The 2022 NL MVP got off to a rough start this season with two home runs and .530 OPS through 37 games, but he's turned it around nicely since the middle of May. He's now slashing .261/.312/.452 with nine homers, 22 RBI and five steals over his last 46 games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:17 pm
       
    • Spencer Steer socks three-run HR against Yankees
      Spencer Steer hit a three-run homer while helping the Reds to an 8-4 win over the Yankees on Thursday.

      Advice: Steer extended the Reds’ lead to 5-0 with a three-run blast off Marcus Stroman; the third homer Cincinnati hit against the right-hander. Steer has now gone deep 11 times with 54 RBI. The 26-year-old infielder’s .239/.332/.416 slash leaves a bit to be desired, but he’s starting to swing the bat better and should be a solid fantasy option over the second half of the 2024 campaign.

    • Spencer Horwitz picks up three hits, two RBI
      Spencer Horwitz went 3-for-4 with two RBI in a loss Thursday to the Astros.

      Advice: Horwitz singled in the first inning to score two runs off Framber Valdez. The infielder would single two more times to improve his slash to .314/.435/.486 over 23 games and 70 at-bats. A relatively small sample, but it’s hard not to be impressed by what Horwitz is doing right now. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:52 pm
       
    • Bryce Harper (hamstring) getting closer to return
      Phillies manager Rob Thomson said both Bryce Harper (hamstring) and J.T. Realmuto (knee) are running at 75% intensity.

      Advice: The Phillies will be home for six games next week and then have the All-Star break, so there’s no reason to rush either Harper or Realmuto, but Thomson said that the Phillies won’t hold either of them back if they’re ready to go before the break. Given the nature of Realmuto’s injury and his age, it’s more likely Harper will return before the break than Realmuto. However, the Phillies have a solid lead in the NL East, so the team could decide to be cautious with both and hold them out for next week. One would assume that if the Phillies don’t bring either Harper or Realmuto back for the early week series against the Dodgers, they will certainly hold them out for the weekend series against the Athletics.

    • Rockies outright Elehuris Montero to Triple-A
      Rockies sent INF Elehuris Montero outright to Triple-A Albuquerque.

      Advice: Montero was designated for assignment last weekend after hitting .205 with a .571 OPS so far this season. With nobody claiming him on waivers, he will return to Triple-A where he hit .359 in 35 games last year with 15 home runs and 48 RBI. He may simply be a good Triple-A hitter who never quite finds his footing at the big league level. Rotoworld Yesterday, 11:17 am

    • Outrighted to Triple-A
      Montero cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Triple-A Albuquerque.

      Advice: Montero was DFA'd by the Rockies on Sunday after slashing .205/.267/.304 over 247 plate appearances, but he'll officially remain in the organization after passing through waivers unclaimed. Until the 25-year-old is able to turn things around at the plate, he'll serve as organizational depth in the minor leagues. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:37 am
