    • Does enough for third win
      McKenzie (3-3) picked up the win Tuesday, giving up two runs on four hits and two walks over 5.1 innings in a 5-3 victory over the Reds. He struck out four.

      Advice: The right-hander got a quick hook after 75 pitches (43 strikes) with the Guardians ahead 3-2, but the bullpen and offense were able to secure McKenzie's first win since April 19. He's failed to complete six innings in any of his last four trips to the mound, but on the bright side, he kept the ball in the yard Tuesday after serving up eight homers over his three prior outings. McKenzie will take a 4.10 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 65:38 K:BB through 68 innings into his next start, which lines up to come at home early next week against the Mariners. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 4:30 am
    • Battling illness
      Manager Bob Melvin said after Tuesday's game that Hicks has been sick for the past several days, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

      Advice: While Hicks' illness didn't prevent him from starting Tuesday, it did play a factor in his removal after just 4.2 innings and caused his velocity to be down a tick. The 27-year-old righty allowed three earned runs on five hits and a walk while striking out five batters, and he was hit with his third loss of the year. Assuming he's able to shake off his illness, Hicks is lined up to start again on the road Monday against the Cubs. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 9:38 pm

    • Jordan Hicks lifted in fifth versus Astros
      Jordan Hicks yielded three runs in 4 2/3 innings Tuesday in a loss to the Astros.

      Advice: Hicks didn’t have his usual velocity tonight, averaging 93.0 mph with his sinker. That’s down 1.9 mph from his season average and 3.2 mph from his start six days ago. Last time this happened, it was blamed on an illness, and Hicks’ velocity returned to normal his next time out. We’ll have to wait and see what the reasoning is this time. Rotoworld Tuesday, 9:26 pm

    • Triston McKenzie claws out a win over the Reds
      Triston McKenzie allowed two runs on four hits in 5 1/3 innings in a win over the Reds on Tuesday.

      Advice: The lanky right-hander allowed two extra-base hits and five hard-hit baseballs while striking out four and walking two. He induced just five whiffs on 31 swings for a 16 percent whiff rate and 23 percent CSW on the night. McKenzie had allowed 12 earned runs over 15 1/3 innings in his last three starts, so this was a much better performance, but he’s clearly not healthy and is not missing bats consistently which makes him risky for fantasy leagues. He currently lines up for a two-start week against the Mariners and Blue Jays next week. Rotoworld Tuesday, 7:32 pm
    • Bobby Miller to make rehab start Thursday at AAA
      Bobby Miller will make another minor league rehab start on Thursday for Triple-A Oklahoma City.

      Advice: Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters that Miller will return to Los Angeles if he gets through this latest rehab outing without any issues. The 25-year-old righty has been on the shelf since mid-April due to right shoulder inflammation, but it sounds like he’s really close to making it back. Rotoworld Tuesday, 5:12 pm
       
    • Geared up for another rehab start
      Miller (shoulder) will make another rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Miller was effective in his last outing with Oklahoma City, pitching four innings, allowing one run on four hits and two walks while striking out two batters Friday. Manager Dave Roberts said that if all goes well Thursday, it'll be Miller's final appearance of his rehab assignment before he'll return to the major-league roster. The 25-year-old has been on the 15-day injured list since April 13 due to right shoulder inflammation, but Miller now appears to be on the doorstep of making his return after two months on the shelf.

    • Awaiting MRI results on arm
      Woo was scratched from his scheduled start Tuesday against the White Sox as the Mariners await MRI results on his right arm, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.

      Advice: The right-hander missed the first six weeks of the season with elbow inflammation and is now potentially dealing with another arm issue a month later. Woo has been dominant in six starts for Seattle with a 1.07 ERA, 0.53 WHIP and 24:2 K:BB over 33.2 innings, but his outlook is now up in the air as he continues to be evaluated.

    • Servais: Bryan Woo to undergo MRI on forearm
      Bryan Woo has been scratched from Tuesday’s start against the White Sox due to a forearm injury.

      Advice: Mariners manager Scott Servais told reporters Woo is undergoing an MRI on his right forearm and the team is awaiting the results before making a decision on his status. It’ll be lefty Jhonathan Diaz taking the ball for an emergency spot start in his place. The 24-year-old righty has been phenomenal this season, when healthy, compiling a microscopic 1.07 ERA, 0.54 WHIP and 24/2 K/BB ratio across 33 2/3 innings (six starts). It’s a bummer for fantasy managers since this was such a tasty matchup, but the positive news is that it sounds like he’s not facing an extended absence for the moment. There should be some clarity on his status in the coming days. Rotoworld Tuesday, 2:58 pm

    • Scratched from start
      Woo will not start Tuesday's game versus the White Sox, Shannon Drayer of Seattle Sports 710 AM reports.

      Advice: The Mariners have not yet said why Woo won't start as scheduled Tuesday, but an update on his status should come in the near future. In the meantime, Jhonathan Diaz will come up from Triple-A Tacoma to start in Woo's place. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:45 pm
