    • Heads to bench Friday
      Stott is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the White Sox.

      Advice: Sott has a .618 OPS through 19 games this season and will take a seat Friday as lefty Garrett Crochet starts for Chicago. Edmundo Sosa will handle the keystone and bat eighth. Rotowire.com 55 minutes ago
       
    • Receives breather Friday
      Greene is out of the lineup for Friday's game at Minnesota, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

      Advice: Greene started Detroit's first 19 games of the season but will receive a well-deserved day off for the series opener versus the Twins. Wenceel Perez will take over in right field and bat second. Rotowire.com Today, 2:27 pm
       
    • Riley Greene absent from Tigers lineup on Friday
      Riley Greene is absent from the Tigers’ starting lineup for Friday night’s showdown against the Twins.

      Advice: It’s a rare night off for the 23-year-old outfielder, who started each of the team’s first 19 ballgames. Wenceel Perez will start in his place in right field and will bat second for the Tigers against right-hander Joe Ryan and the Twins. Rotoworld Today, 1:56 pm
       
    • Held out again Friday
      Candelario (illness) remains out of the lineup for Friday's contest versus the Angels.

      Advice: There's a bug going around the Reds' clubhouse, as Christian Encarnacion-Strand will also miss a second straight game. Consider Candelario day-to-day. Santiago Espinal will be at third base Friday. Rotowire.com Today, 11:11 am

    • Justin Steele to throw bullpen session Sunday
      Cubs manager Craig Counsell said Justin Steele (hamstring) will throw a bullpen session on Sunday.

      Advice: This will be Steele’s second bullpen session in the past two weeks. The 28-year-old threw a session last Saturday, but will continue to ramp up and eventually get some rehab starts before he joins the Cubs’ active roster. Steele isn’t expected to be back with the team until May. Rotoworld Today, 10:56 am

    • Slated for live BP Sunday
      Steele (hamstring) will throw a live batting practice session Sunday, Tony Andracki of Marquee Sports Network reports.

      Advice: If Steele gets through the live BP with no issues, he could be cleared to begin a rehab assignment. The left-hander is working his way back from a left hamstring strain which he suffered back on Opening Day. It's not clear at this point how many rehab starts he might be asked to make before rejoining the Cubs' rotation. Rotowire.com Today, 9:23 am

    • Spins seven scoreless innings
      Webb (2-1) picked up the win Thursday, allowing two hits and one walk with five strikeouts over seven scoreless innings against Arizona.

      Advice: Webb was exceptional Thursday, making it through seven innings for a third straight start. The two hits Webb allowed came on the first two batters he faced Thursday, but he managed to retire the next 19 in a row. Webb has allowed two or fewer runs in four of his five appearances this season, boasting a 2.93 ERA across 30.2 innings pitched. He's tentatively scheduled for a matchup with the Mets on Tuesday.

    • Logan Webb makes swift work of D-backs in win
      Logan Webb fired seven shutout innings on Thursday in a win over the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Webb retired a career-high 19 consecutive batters following back-to-back singles from Ketel Marte and Corbin Carroll, respectively, to open the contest before issuing a one-out walk to Christian Walker in the seventh inning. The 27-year-old workhorse, who finished with five strikeouts and only issued one walk, completed seven frames for the third consecutive start in this one. He’ll bring a sparkling 2.93 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 22/6 K/BB ratio across 30 2/3 innings (five starts) into another home outing on Tuesday against the Mets. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:57 pm
       
    • Earns win in setup role
      Leclerc (1-2) picked up the win Thursday, allowing two walks and striking out two over one scoreless inning in a 9-7 victory over the Tigers.

      Advice: It was a wild affair in Detroit, as the Tigers came back from 4-0 and 7-4 deficits before the Rangers put it away in the final two innings. For Leclerc, it was his first time in what would be a considered a high-leverage spot since he was removed as the team's closer last weekend. He entered with two outs and two inherited runners in the seventh inning and escaped without damage. He became the pitcher of record an inning later when Texas broke a 7-7 tie. He worked around a pair of walks in the eighth before Kirby Yates came in for a four-out save. Since Leclerc lost the closer's job, the right-hander has not allowed a run and struck out six over four innings. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:10 pm
