    • Ketel Marte (back) held out of lineup on Saturday
      Ketel Marte (back) was held out of the Diamondbacks’ starting lineup for Saturday evening’s showdown against the Padres.

      Advice: Marte was removed from Friday’s game due to tightness in his back. The Diamondbacks are hopeful that it’s only a minor issue and won’t require a lengthy absence. He’s expected to be available off the bench on Saturday night and could return to the Diamondbacks’ lineup for Sunday’s series finale. Rotoworld Today, 4:32 pm

    • Held out of starting nine
      Marte (back) is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Padres but could be available off the bench, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

      Advice: Marte was removed from Friday's contest with lower back tightness and the D-Backs will keep him out of the starting lineup Saturday. However, manager Torey Lovullo said that Marte could be available off the bench if needed. Marte should be considered day-to-day. Rotowire.com Today, 4:22 pm

    • Cade Povich gets three outs, allows eight runs
      Cade Povich allowed eight runs in one-plus innings in a loss to the Athletics on Saturday.

      Advice: Yikes. Povich allowed a three-run homer in the first to Brent Rooker, and then was absolutely shellacked in the second frame while giving up another three-run blast to Max Schuemann and two more runs after he left the game. Again, yikes. Povich has shown some solid stuff at various times since being brought up, but if you need any evidence that the command is still a work in progress, see above. If he stays in the rotation, he’s lined up to face the Yankees on Friday. Rotoworld Today, 4:14 pm
       
    • Harrison allows four runs in loss Saturday
      Kyle Harrison allowed four runs in 3 1/3 innings and took the loss against the Guardians on Saturday.

      Advice: Harrison gave up four hits, walked four and struck out two. Harrison allowed three runs in the first inning on an RBI groundout, a sacrifice fly and an RBI single. In the second inning, Steven Kwan got him for a solo home run. His ERA is up tot 4.24 on the season and the lack of strikeouts make him difficult to trust in fantasy. The 22-year-old left-hander is set to face the Twins at home next weekend.

    • To play catch next week
      Yamamoto (shoulder) will begin playing catch next week, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

      Advice: Yamamoto has been shut down from throwing since being diagnosed with a right rotator cuff strain June 16 but will resume a throwing program in the coming days. The 25-year-old is no longer feeling pain in his shoulder and seems to be on track for an August return. Rotowire.com Today, 3:47 pm
       
    • Taj Bradley strikes out five in no-decision
      Taj Bradley allowed two runs (one earned) in six innings and got a no-decision against the Rangers on Saturday.



      Advice: Bradley gave up five hits, walked two and struck out five. It was another solid outing for Bradley. He left the game with the Rays leading 3-2, but the bullpen couldn’t hold on to get him the win. Bradley hasn’t allowed more than two runs in his last six starts. He has a 3.23 ERA on the season. The 23-year-old right-hander is set to face the Guardians at home next weekend.

    • Logan O’Hoppe drives in two runs Saturday
      Logan O’Hoppe went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI, and a run scored in the Angels’ 7-0 win against the Cubs on Saturday.

      Advice: O’Hoppe was hit by a pitch in the first inning, then knocked a base hit to drive in a run in the third before scoring on a throwing error. He was credited with another RBI on a groundout in the fourth, then reached for a third time with a double in the eighth. The 24-year-old backstop is slashing an excellent .279/.331/.473 with 12 homers and 40 RBI across 285 plate appearances. Rotoworld Today, 1:58 pm
       
    • Giants activate Kyle Harrison for Saturday start
      Giants activated LHP Kyle Harrison from the 15-day injured list.

      Advice: Harrison draws the starting assignment for Saturday’s showdown against the Guardians following a nearly three-week absence due to a sprained right ankle. The 22-year-old southpaw has struggled to miss bats this season at the highest level, but still holds a respectable 3.96 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 68/22 K/BB ratio across 77 1/3 innings (14 starts).

    • Activated off IL, starting Saturday
      Harrison (ankle) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list ahead of his start Saturday against the Guardians, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

      Advice: Harrison landed on the injured list June 16 with a right ankle sprain. He was able to forego a rehab assignment, and he isn't expected to face any restrictions in his return to the Giants' rotation Saturday. Through 14 starts this season, Harrison is 4-3 with a 3.96 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 68:22 K:BB over 77.1 innings. To make room for the 22-year-old southpaw, right-hander Spencer Bivens was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento. Rotowire.com Today, 10:12 am
