    • A’s officially place Zack Gelof on 10-day IL
      Athletics placed INF Zack Gelof (oblique) on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to April 24, with a left oblique strain.

      Advice: This doesn’t come as a surprise as the 24-year-old second baseman was diagnosed with the strain Wednesday, but it’s a disappointment for fantasy managers that have him rostered. Abraham Toro is likely to take over at second while Gelof is sidelined. Rotoworld Today, 11:08 am

    • Placed on injured list
      The Athletics placed Gelof on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a strained left oblique.

      Advice: Gelof's injury caused him to be a late scratch from Oakland's lineup ahead of Wednesday's game, and it will now officially cost him at least another week and a half. The 24-year-old second baseman hadn't missed a start prior to Wednesday, though he's failed to make the most of his playing time, slashing just .196/.260/.337 with seven RBI across his first 101 plate appearances. Darell Hernaiz was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Today, 11:07 am

    • Four more hits Wednesday
      Bohm went 4-for-4 with a double, two RBI and a walk in Wednesday's 7-4 loss to the Reds.

      Advice: Bohm's been on a tear of late. He now has multiple hits in four straight contests while extending his hitting streak to eight games -- he's 16-for-30 with a 1.522 OPS in that span. The 27-year-old Bohm's now slashing .337/.430/.558 with three homers, 21 RBI and 11 runs scored through his first 25 games this season. Rotowire.com Today, 7:28 am

    • Alec Bohm goes 4-for-4 as cleanup man
      Alec Bohm finished 4-for-4 with two RBI and a walk against the Reds on April 26 on Wednesday.

      Advice: It’s worth wondering if the Phillies might have another win or two if they had just left Bohm in cleanup spot, which is where he finished last year, to begin this season. He’s batting .337.430/.558 in 100 plate appearances. He did hit cleanup tonight, though that’s probably just because usual cleanup man J.T. Realmuto had the night off. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:57 pm

    • Struggles with power
      Ryan (1-1) picked up the win Wednesday against the White Sox, allowing three runs on four hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out eight.

      Advice: Although Ryan only gave up four hits on the day, three of them went for extra bases, including solo homers to Kevin Pillar and Korey Lee. Ryan has been tagged for three or more earned runs in three of his five starts this season but boasts an incredible 38:4 K:BB and a 1.01 WHIP in 28.2 innings. He's tentatively lined up for a rematch with the White Sox early next week. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:25 pm
       
    • Dansby Swanson hits first homer since April 8
      Dansby Swanson slugged a three-run homer on Wednesday, propelling the Cubs to a 4-3 victory over the Astros.

      Advice: Swanson connected for a tone-setting homer off Astros rookie right-hander Spencer Arrighetti as part of Chicago’s four-run opening frame, which wound up being enough offense for Jameson Taillon and a quartet of Cubs relievers. It was his third long ball of the season and first time he’s gone deep since April 8. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:52 pm
       
    • Sets tone with home run
      Swanson went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Astros.

      Advice: Swanson got the Cubs going early, hitting his big blast with two outs in the first inning to set the tone for the rest of the game. The shortstop, who is up to three home runs now for the season, has been off to a bit of a slow start overall with just a .235 batting average. However, Swanson will continue to see regular playing time, and he should be a strong fantasy asset the rest of the way. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:44 pm
       
    • Zack Gelof (oblique) likely heading to 10-day IL
      Athletics’ manager Mark Kotsay told reporters after Wednesday’s game that Zack Gelof was diagnosed with a left oblique strain and will likely head to the injured list.

      Advice: That’s a tough break for the Athletics and for fantasy managers who were relying on the dynamic 24-year-old second baseman. No word yet on how much time he may miss, but oblique injuries usually take at least a couple of weeks to recover and could be even longer depending on the severity. Expect Abraham Toro to see additional run at second base for as long as Gelof is sidelined. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:44 pm

    • Joe Ryan strikes out eight in win over White Sox
      Joe Ryan allowed three runs with eight strikeouts across six innings in a win over the White Sox on Wednesday.

      Advice: Ryan retired the first six batters, striking out the side in the first. Kevin Pillar led off the third inning with a solo homer to put the White Sox on the board. Korey Lee followed two batters later with another solo blast. Ryan put two runners on in the fifth and a run would come in on a double steal of home. The 27-year-old right-hander completed six frames to earn his first win, striking out eight on 19 whiffs. Ryan will take a 3.77 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, and a 38/4 K/BB ratio across 28 2/3 innings into another start against the White Sox in Chicago on Monday. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:25 pm
