    • Getting breather Tuesday
      Marte is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Reds.

      Advice: Marte returned to second base for the last two games after spending two contests at designated hitter due to general body soreness. It would appear that him being absent from Tuesday's lineup is just a routine day off. Blaze Alexander is getting a start at second base and will bat second for the Diamondbacks.

    • Back in field
      Marte started at second base and went 1-for-4 with three RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 9-2 win over Baltimore.

      Advice: Marte was back playing the field after serving as the designated hitter Friday and Saturday due to general body stiffness. He produced a run with a sacrifice fly in the fourth inning then plated two more an inning later with a bases-loaded single. The single extended a hit streak to 13 games, which features one game with multiple hits (14-for-54, .259). What the streak lacks in average is made up for by slugging. Nine of Marte's 14 hits have gone for extra bases (four doubles, one triple, four home runs), and he's knocked in 10 runs. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:10 am
       
    • Ketel Marte hits two-run homer vs. Orioles
      Ketel Marte hit a two-run homer against the Orioles on Saturday in an extra-innings loss.

      Advice: Marte hit a two-run homer off John Means in the third. That’s the ninth homer of the season for the 30-year-old veteran, and he’s plated 21 runs over the first six weeks of the season. Marte has slowed down slightly, but a .294/.345/.550 slash is nothing to sneeze at. Rotoworld Saturday, 4:20 pm
       
    • Starting at DH amid stiffness
      Marte is starting at designated hitter Saturday for the second day in a row due to his body feeling a little stiff, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: He socked his eighth home run of the season Friday to extend his hit streak to 11 games. Marte should return to the keystone once he feels right. Blaze Alexander has started each of the last two games at second base. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:49 am
       
    • Swats eighth homer
      Marte went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Orioles.

      Advice: He took Cole Irvin deep in the third inning, giving Marte his eighth homer of the season and third in the last five games. The 30-year-old second baseman also extended his hitting streak to 11 games with the solo shot, but he's batting just .261 (12-for-46) during that stretch as he's managed only one multi-hit performance.

    • Sitting against lefty
      Donovan isn't in the Cardinals' lineup for Friday's game against the Brewers, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

      Advice: Left-hander Robert Gasser will make his MLB debut Friday as Milwaukee's starting pitcher, meaning the left-handed bat of Donovan will begin the game from the Cardinals' dugout. Lars Nootbaar, Mike Siani and Dylan Carlson will start across St. Louis' outfield while Donovan sits. Rotowire.com Friday, 2:23 pm

    • Smacks third home run
      Castro went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and two RBI during Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Mariners.

      Advice: The 27-year-old hit a solo shot off George Kirby in the second inning to break an 0-for-11 stretch at the plate, and Castro's RBI triple in the fourth gave the Twins some extra insurance, making it a 4-1 ballgame. Castro is now slashing .346/.370/.692 with three RBI and three stolen bases across his last seven games. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:23 pm

    • Willi Castro homers and triples in win Wednesday
      Willi Castro went 2-for-3 with a home run, triple, and two RBI in a 6-3 win over the Mariners on Wednesday.

      Advice: Castro snapped an 0-for-11 run, extending the Twins’ lead with a solo homer off George Kirby in the second inning. He drove in a second run with a triple in the fourth. The versatile 27-year-old is hitting a solid .273/.336/.471 with three homers, 18 runs scored, 14 RBI, and five steals across 134 plate appearances. Rotoworld Wednesday, 7:39 pm

    • Another start in center
      Castro will start in center field and bat seventh for Wednesday's game against the Mariners.

      Advice: It's the 21st staight start for Castro, who has also been in the lineup at shortstop, third base and in left field during that stretch. Third base and center field will likely be Castro's primary homes for the foreseeable future while Royce Lewis (quadricep) and Byron Buxton (knee) remain on the injured list.
