    • Not starting Thursday
      Machado (personal) is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rockies.

      Advice: Since Machado has already spent the maximum three days on the paternity list, he needs to be activated Thursday, but the Padres have yet to officially announce the move. Even if the Padres add Machado back to the 26-man roster Thursday, he'll still be available only as a bench player before likely making his return to the lineup against the Phillies this weekend, when the team returns to San Diego. Jurickson Profar will serve as the Friars' designated hitter Thursday. Rotowire.com Today, 10:42 am
       
    • Getting breather
      O'Neill is absent from the lineup for Thursday's contest in Cleveland.

      Advice: O'Neill is getting a scheduled day off after starting in both of the last two games upon returning from the 7-day injured list for a concussion. Rob Refsnyder will get the call in left field and hit third Thursday while O'Neill rests. Rotowire.com Today, 8:16 am
       
    • Blasts seventh homer
      Ward went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's loss to the Orioles.

      Advice: Ward followed up Mike Trout's solo homer in the bottom of the sixth with a two-run shot of his own just two batters later, bringing the Angels back within three runs of Baltimore. The outfielder now has five homers and 19 RBI in April, though he's gone just 4-for-26 (.153) at the plate over his last seven games. He's also failed to register multiple hits in any game over that stretch. Rotowire.com Today, 7:42 am
       
    • Resting Thursday
      Stephenson is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Phillies.

      Advice: Stephenson will get a well-deserved breather for Thursday's day game after he started in each of Cincinnati's last seven games, with six of those starts coming behind the plate. Luke Maile will get the nod at catcher Thursday and form a battery with starting pitcher Nick Martinez. Rotowire.com Today, 7:28 am
       
    • Back in action as DH
      India (illness) will serve as the Reds' designated hitter and No. 6 batter in Thursday's game against the Phillies.

      Advice: India is back in the starting nine for the first time since Saturday, albeit in a non-defensive role as the Reds look to ease him back in following his bout with an illness that kept him on the bench for four games. He'll likely reprise his usual duties at second base over the weekend, at which point Santiago Espinal will head back to the bench and serve as a utility infielder.

    • Jonathan India back in lineup versus Philly
      Jonathan India (illness) is in the Reds’ starting lineup and batting sixth against the Phillies on Thursday.

      Advice: India was sidelined for the the past three games with an illness, but the 27-year-old is back in the up as a designated hitter. India has slashed .251/.349/.410 with four RBI in his 86 plate appearances this season. Rotoworld Today, 7:11 am
       
    • Shohei Ohtani raises average to .371 in blowout
      Shohei Ohtani went 3-for-6 with a pair of RBI on Wednesday in the Dodgers’ blowout win over the Nationals.

      Advice: We’re running out of superlatives to describe Ohtani’s exploits. He doubled three times in the one-sided affair, including a pair of runs-scoring knocks in the eighth and ninth innings, respectively, to raise his batting average to an astronomical .371 (39-for-105) in the process. The 29-year-old two-way fantasy superstar has put together an unbelievable Dodgers debut so far with a 1.128 OPS to go along with 22 runs scored, six homers, 16 RBI and five steals through 26 games.

    • William Contreras leads Brewers past Pirates
      William Contreras went 3-for-4 with a walk, run scored and an RBI on Wednesday night, leading the Brewers to a 3-2 victory over the Pirates in Pittsburgh.

      Advice: Contreras hit out of the leadoff spot for the Brewers on Wednesday and reached base in four of his five plate appearances. He opened the scoring in the game with an RBI single off of Luis Ortiz in the third inning, then trotted home as Blake Perkins worked a bases-loaded walk. With his three-hit attack, the 26-year-old backstop is slashing a sizzling .359/.439/.543 with four homers, 21 RBI, 20 runs scored and a stolen base through his first 23 games.

    • Thairo Estrada leaves game with hamstring injury
      Thairo Estrada was removed from Wednesday’s game against the Mets due to tightness in his left hamstring.

      Advice: The 28-year-old infielder tried to talk his way into staying in the game, so hopefully the injury isn’t that serious. The Giants should provide an update on his status after the game, but it sounds like Estrada should be considered day-to-day. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:05 pm
