Returning to lineupDiaz (finger) is batting fifth and is the designated hitter for Friday's game against the Tigers.
Advice: Diaz missed three straight games with a right index finger injury, but he'll be back in action Friday. Considering his injury impacts his throwing and accuracy, Diaz could require a few more games at DH before working behind the dish. The 25-year-old had a six-game hit streak prior to being injured with four homers during that stretch. Rotowire.comYainer DiazHOU - C,1B11:10 am @CWS -
Carries offense in lossSoderstrom went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a loss to the Twins on Thursday.
Advice: Soderstrom got Oakland off to a strong start with a two-run blast in the second inning, but the team was unable to add any additional offense thereafter. The long ball gave the suddenly hot first baseman three homers over his past four games and extended his hitting streak to five contests. Soderstrom is slashing .353/.450/.882 with six RBI, five runs and a 3:2 BB:K over that stretch. Rotowire.comTyler SoderstromOAK - C,1B12:37 pm vs KC -
Soderstrom blasts fourth home run ThursdayTyler Soderstrom went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run against the Twins on Thursday.
Advice: Soderstrom took Joe Ryan out in the second inning for a two-run home run when Ryan hung a splitter. It was his fourth home run of the season. Soderstrom once again started at first base. Fantasy managers will have to wait for him to get more starts at catcher so he could gain some fantasy relevancy. RotoworldTyler SoderstromOAK - C,1B12:37 pm vs KC -
Making another start versus rightyBiggio is in the lineup at third base and batting eighth Thursday versus the Rangers.
Advice: Biggio is getting his second start at third base for the Dodgers after going 1-for-3 in his debut for the team Wednesday. Thursday's start comes with righty Michael Lorenzen on the mound for the Rangers. With Max Muncy (oblique) remaining on the injured list and Enrique Hernandez sitting for a second straight game, it appears Biggio will be the primary option at third versus right-handers.

Hits go-ahead homer in winBellinger went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run in a 4-3 win over Tampa Bay on Wednesday.
Advice: With the Cubs trailing 2-1 with two outs in the seventh inning, Bellinger changed the game with a three-run home run off Tampa Bay reliever Garrett Cleavinger then added a single in the ninth. While the homer was his first in June, Bellinger now has four straight multi-hit efforts for a total of five in 10 contests this month. On the season, Bellinger is slashing .267/.324/.456 with nine home runs and 32 RBI in 238 plate appearances. Rotowire.comCody BellingerCHC - 1B,OF -
Cody Bellinger powers Cubs past RaysCody Bellinger went 2-for-5 and hit a three-run homer in the seventh to lead the Cubs to a 4-3 victory over the Rays on Wednesday.
Advice: The homer came off Garrett Cleavinger, a lefty who hadn’t previously allowed one in 27 innings this season. It was Bellinger’s ninth in 54 games. He’s not doing anything quite as well as he did last year, but that was probably to be expected. He’s still been a fine regular for the Cubs, and he might offer more to fantasy leaguers if he gets back to stealing more bases; he has three right now after finishing with 20 last year.

Cavan Biggio starts at third base in Dodgers debutCavan Biggio will start at third base and bat ninth in his Dodgers’ debut against the Rangers on Wednesday evening.
Advice: It looks like Biggio could see strong-side platoon at-bats at third base — at least until Max Muncy returns from the injured list — as well as being utilized all over the diamond as a super-utility option. The 29-year-old was hitting a miserable .200/.323/.291 with a pair of homers in 131 plate appearances with the Blue Jays this season before getting designated for assignment and ultimately flipped to the Dodgers.

Making Dodgers debut at third baseBiggio is starting at third base and batting ninth Wednesday against the Rangers.
Advice: The 29-year-old was officially acquired from Toronto earlier Wednesday and will immediately step into the starting nine for Los Angeles. Biggio struggled in 130 plate appearances for the Blue Jays this season with a .200/.323/.291 slash line and 32.3 percent strikeout rate, but he could see semi-regular playing time at the hot corner while Max Muncy (oblique) is sidelined. Enrique Hernandez has been operating as the Dodgers' primary third baseman but is on the bench Wednesday. Rotowire.comCavan BiggioLAD - 1B,2B,3B,OF12:10 pm @COL -
Expected back FridayAstros manager Joe Espada expects Diaz (finger) to be available to return to the lineup for Friday's game against the Tigers, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Advice: Diaz will miss a third straight start Wednesday in San Francisco due to a sore right index finger, but Espada indicated the catcher is nearly recovered and will be available off the bench. Espada also noted that Diaz's finger issue primarily affects his throwing and accuracy, per Chandler Rome of The Athletic, so it's possible that Diaz could return to the lineup as a designated hitter initially.
