  • Ready to go Sunday
    Bohm (hip) is starting at third base and batting fifth Sunday against the Giants, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Advice: The 27-year-old was removed from Saturday's contest due to right hip tightness but is back in the starting nine a day later. Bohm has been one of the best hitters in baseball through the first five weeks of the season with a .364/.435/.579 slash line in 34 games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:11 pm

  • Contract selected by Friars
    The Padres selected Solano's contract from Triple-A El Paso on Sunday.

    Advice: The 36-year-old joined San Diego on a minor-league deal in mid-April and will join the big club after he posted an .847 OPS in 12 games with El Paso. Solano isn't likely to see significant playing time, especially following the Padres' acquisition of Luis Arraez. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:47 pm
     
  • Eguy Rosario sent back to Triple-A by Padres
    Padres optioned INF Eguy Rosario to Triple-A El Paso.

    Advice: Rosario hasn’t seen much playing time, and the infielder will head to Triple-A to likely see more consistent at-bats. Donovan Solano is up to take Rosario’s place on the roster. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:41 pm
     
  • Padres select contract of Donovan Solano
    Padres selected the contract of INF Donovan Solano from Triple-A El Paso.

    Advice: Solano will provide a bench bat option for the Padres now that he’s up on the roster. The 36-year-old was signed to a minor-league deal on April 15, and he’ll likely get most of his playing time against southpaws while with San Diego. Eguy Rosario is down in a corresponding transaction. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:40 pm
     
  • Sent to Triple-A
    Rosario was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Sunday.

    Advice: Rosario hadn't made a start since April 29 and will now head down to the minors. The Padres selected the contract of Donovan Solano from El Paso in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:38 pm
     
  • Sitting against lefty
    Muncy is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

    Advice: The 33-year-old launched three homers in Saturday's contest but will still sit Sunday as lefty Max Fried pitches for Atlanta. According to Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times, manager Dave Roberts said Muncy's absence was planned prior to Saturday's contest, and the third baseman is expected to play in the next six contests.

  • Exiting starting nine Sunday
    Davis is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

    Advice: Following a stint on the 10-day injured list due to an adductor strain, Davis was activated Friday and had started at first base in both of his first two games back in action, going 2-for-7 with a run scored between those contests. The Athletics haven't indicated that Davis suffered a setback in his recovery from the injury, so his absence Sunday is presumably a pre-planned maintenance day. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:01 pm

  • Emerging as primary DH
    Wisdom will serve as the Cubs' designated hitter and No. 7 batter in Sunday's game against the Brewers.

    Advice: Wisdom is starting at DH for the third time in four games, and it looks like the role will be his for the taking for the time being after the Cubs optioned Matt Mervis to Triple-A Iowa on Saturday. Wisdom should have an opportunity to see steady playing time until the Cubs get at least one of Seiya Suzuki (oblique) or Cody Bellinger (ribs) back from the injured list.

  • Jeimer Candelario (shin) scratched from lineup
    Jeimer Candelario has been scratched from the lineup Sunday with a bruised left shin.

    Advice: Candelario fouled a ball off his shin Saturday, and the Reds will give the 30-year-old a day of rest as a precaution. Santiago Espinal is now starting in Candelario’s absence. He should be considered day-to-day. Rotoworld Yesterday, 11:28 am
