    • Gets rare day off
      Bogaerts is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds.

      Advice: Bogaerts will hit the bench for just the second time all season in what appears to be a routine maintenance day after he had started each of the past 16 games. Tyler Wade will step in for Bogaerts at second base and will bat ninth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:56 am
       
    • Returning after one-game absence
      Westburg (illness) will start at second base and bat seventh in Monday's game versus the Yankees.

      Advice: Westburg sat out Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Athletics because of a stomach bug, but he's feeling well enough to return to the lineup a day later. The 25-year-old has produced a .903 OPS in 25 games for the Orioles this season. Rotowire.com Monday, 12:36 pm

    • Julien out of lineup as Twins bench all lefties
      The Twins are opting to bench all their left-handed hitters against Garrett Crochet, which means Edouard Julien, Alex Kirilloff, Trevor Larnach, and Max Kepler are all on the bench on Monday.

      Advice: We had been waiting to see who would get the short end of the stick with Carlos Correa returning from the IL, but it’s impossible to tell that from this lineup. The Twins continue to be the most platoon-heavy lineup in baseball, which is incredibly frustrating for fantasy purposes. Kyle Farmer will get the start at 2B with Manuel Margot in RF, and Willi Castro in LF. Rotoworld Monday, 12:27 pm
       
    • Out again versus lefty
      Julien is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.

      Advice: The Twins are facing a lefty for the fourth time in the last six games and Julien has been out of the lineup on all four occasions. Kyle Farmer will handle second base in Julien's place. Rotowire.com Monday, 12:26 pm
       
    • Jose Altuve hits seventh homer in Astros’ victory
      Jose Altuve went 2-for-4 with a homer, a walk and three runs scored as the Astros topped the Rockies 8-2 in Mexico City on Sunday.

      Advice: Altuve’s homer projected at 438 feet, his longest blast since Oct. 7, 2020. He hadn’t hit a ball farther than 404 feet this season, though that hadn’t stopped him from amassing six homers coming into the day. He’s batting .342/.414/.596 in 128 plate appearances.

    • Goes deep, swipes bag
      Altuve went 2-for-4 with a solo homer, three runs scored, a walk and a steal in Sunday's win over Colorado.

      Advice: Altuve singled and scored after swiping third base in the first inning. He then drilled a solo shot in the third. The star infielder had been in a short slump recently, going 6-for-30 (.200) with one extra-base hit over his previous seven games. Still, he's sporting a strong .342/.414/.596 slash line with four steals, 15 extra-base hits and 21 runs scored through 28 games. Rotowire.com Sunday, 4:02 pm
       
    • Sits with illness
      Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Westburg wasn't available for Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Athletics due to a stomach bug, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: The illness brought an end to a streak of 16 straight starts for Westburg, who has a .304/.360/.543 slash line through 25 games this season. The 25-year-old should be considered day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener versus the Yankees. Rotowire.com Sunday, 2:01 pm

    • Rests against lefty
      Julien is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Julien will retreat to the bench with southpaw Reid Detmers on the hill for the Angels. Kyle Farmer will step in for Julien at second base. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:22 am
       
    • Takes seat Sunday
      Westburg is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

      Advice: Westburg started the past 16 games and posted a 1.057 OPS during that stretch, but he'll receive a breather Sunday while in the midst of a 4-for-20 slump. Jorge Mateo will step in at the keystone and bat ninth. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:34 am
