  • Mitch Haniger sitting Sunday vs. Astros
    Mitch Haniger is not in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Astros.

    Advice: Haniger will get a day of rest for the series finale for the Mariners with Hunter Brown on the bump for the Astros. Luke Raley will hit seventh and handle right field on Haniger’s day off. Rotoworld 6 minutes ago
     
  • Wyatt Langford (leg) not in lineup Saturday vs. KC
    Wyatt Langford (leg) is not in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Royals.

    Advice: Langford left Saturday’s game with a leg injury that occured trying to beat out a ground ball. The 22-year-old rookie will sit Sunday with Corey Seager operating as the designated hitter and Josh Smith playing shortstop. Rotoworld 11 minutes ago
     
  • Senga (shoulder) throws 32 pitches in live BP
    Kodai Senga (shoulder) threw 32 pitches in his live bullpen session Saturday.

    Advice: Senga has now faced live hitters twice this week. The Mets will now determine the next steps for the right-hander in the coming days, as they want to see how he responds before deciding when he’ll begin a rehab assignment. There’s a very good chance he does begin that assignment at this point, however, and he’s on track to make his return around May 27 — the earliest Senga can be activated off the 60-day IL.

  • Good to go Sunday
    Young (back) will start in center field and bat leadoff Sunday against the Blue Jays, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    Advice: The 24-year-old exited Friday's contest due to back spasms and didn't start Saturday, but he'll rejoin the lineup for Sunday's series finale. Young has gone just 2-for-10 over his past four games but has a .311/.354/.378 slash line with 12 steals in 81 plate appearances on the season. Rotowire.com 14 minutes ago
     
  • Reinstated, batting fifth Sunday
    Carlson (shoulder) was activated from the 10-day injured list and is starting in center field and batting fifth Sunday against the White Sox.

    Advice: The 25-year-old missed the first five weeks of the season due to a sprained left shoulder, but he's back with the Cardinals after going 3-for-11 with three walks and a solo homer during a four-game rehab stint with Triple-A Memphis. Carlson should step in as St. Louis' primary center fielder, at least until Tommy Edman (wrist) makes his own return from the injured list. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago
     
  • Joey Ortiz gets Sunday off vs. Cubs
    Joey Ortiz is not in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Cubs.

    Advice: Ortiz also was out Saturday, so the infielder stays on the bench to begin at least one more game. Oliver Dunn is starting at third base in Ortiz’s place. This is something to keep an eye on moving forward. Rotoworld 20 minutes ago

  • Called up for Sunday's start
    Lynch was recalled from Triple-A Omaha and is starting Sunday against the Rangers.

    Advice: The left-hander is taking the rotation spot of Alec Marsh (elbow), who is making a rehab start Sunday and could soon rejoin the Royals. Lynch missed out on Kansas City's season-opening rotation after he posted a 2.77 ERA during spring training, and he hasn't pitched particularly well at Omaha with a 5.86 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and 22:9 K:BB across 27.2 innings.

  • Pedro Pages sent back to Memphis by Cardinals
    Cardinals optioned C Pedro Pages to Triple-A Memphis.

    Advice: Pages is off the active roster to make room for Dylan Carlson after Carlson was activated off the 10-day injured list. Pages should get a chance to play regularly in Memphis. Rotoworld 30 minutes ago
