    • Sitting down Friday
      McCormick isn't in the Astros' lineup for Friday's game against the Twins, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: McCormick will be held out of action for the third time in Houston's last four games Friday while Joey Loperfido starts in right field, batting eighth. Rotowire.com Today, 2:08 pm
       
    • Scratched from lineup
      Matos is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Guardians.

      Advice: Matos was initially listed as the Giants' starting right fielder but will be replaced by Mike Yastrzemski (elbow) in a revised version of the lineup. It's unclear if Matos is dealing with an injury, or if he was just the odd man out with Yastrzemski being cleared to play. Rotowire.com Today, 2:06 pm

    • Resting Friday
      Dubon isn't in the Astros' lineup for Friday's game against the Twins, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Dubon will get a breather Friday after going 2-for-4 with an RBI during Thursday's win over the Blue Jays. Yordan Alvarez will take over in left field, moving Yainer Diaz into the DH spot while Cesar Salazar starts behind the plate. Rotowire.com Today, 2:06 pm

    • Back in big leagues
      The Tigers recalled Meadows from Triple-A Toledo on Friday.

      Advice: Meadows was the Tigers' Opening Day center fielder but was sent down in early May after going just 7-for-73 at the plate. He got on track at Toledo to earn another chance, producing a .298/.394/.511 batting line with eight home runs and 19 stolen bases. Meadows also struck out at just a 19 percent rate with Toledo after he had fanned at a 37.7 percent clip earlier this year with the Tigers. He should operate as Detroit's regular center fielder at least against right-handed pitching. Rotowire.com Today, 2:02 pm
       
    • Optioned to Triple-A
      The Tigers optioned Baddoo to Triple-A Toledo on Friday.

      Advice: Baddoo has played sparingly lately and produced just a .582 OPS with the big club this season. He's clearing out to make room on the roster for Parker Meadows. Rotowire.com Today, 1:58 pm

    • Josh Smith absent from Rangers lineup on Friday
      Josh Smith was held out of Rangers’ starting lineup for Friday night’s matchup against the Rays due to glute tightness.

      Advice: It’s the same issue that sidelined Smith for a couple of games in June, but he’s hopeful that he won’t need to miss more than a day or two this time around. The versatile 26-year-old has been a key cog in the Rangers’ lineup this season, hitting .293/.386/.451 with seven homers, 34 RBI and four stolen bases over 308 plate appearances in his 83 games. Jonathan Ornelas will draw a start at third base in his stead and will bat ninth against Shane Baz and the Rays on Friday night. Rotoworld Today, 1:17 pm

    • Taking seat Friday
      Smith is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Tampa Bay.

      Advice: Smith will get a rare day off after making 13 consecutive starts. Jonathan Ornelas will bat ninth and play third base for Friday's series opener. Over his last four games, Smith is 6-for-16 with two runs and two RBI. Per Kennedi Landry of MLB.com, manager Bruce Bochy indicated that Smith felt a bit of discomfort after his last plate appearance Thursday night but didn't offer any specifics on Smith's health.

    • Tigers to call up OF Parker Meadows
      Tigers are calling up OF Parker Meadows from Triple-A, according to Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press.

      Advice: Meadows struggled mightily with the Tigers earlier this year. He hit .096 with two home runs in 32 games with Detroit. Meadows hit .298 with eight home runs and 19 stolen bases in 47 games with Triple-A Toledo. The average could continue to be a problem, but if he can just get on base he should be a good source of steals. Rotoworld Today, 8:11 am
       
    • Set to be recalled
      The Tigers will recall Meadows from Triple-A Toledo prior to Friday's game against the Reds, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

      Advice: Meadows was sent down by the Tigers in early May after putting up a lowly .443 OPS with a 37.7 percent strikeout rate over 32 games. However, he got back on track at Toledo, slashing .298/.394/.511 with eight home runs, 19 stolen bases and just a 19 percent strikeout rate in 47 contests. Meadows will get regular reps at least against right-handed pitching, and while there's no guarantee he'll be better this time around in the majors, his power/speed combo makes him worthy of being added in most fantasy formats.
