  • 66-48-6 4th Place
    • Absent from starting nine
      Yastrzemski (elbow) is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Guardians.

      Advice: Yastrzemski was hit in the elbow by a pitch Thursday and although his X-rays came back clean, he'll be given Friday off. Michael Conforto, Heliot Ramos and Luis Matos will fill the outfield from left to right. Rotowire.com Today, 12:53 pm
       
    • Tigers to call up OF Parker Meadows
      Tigers are calling up OF Parker Meadows from Triple-A, according to Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press.

      Advice: Meadows struggled mightily with the Tigers earlier this year. He hit .096 with two home runs in 32 games with Detroit. Meadows hit .298 with eight home runs and 19 stolen bases in 47 games with Triple-A Toledo. The average could continue to be a problem, but if he can just get on base he should be a good source of steals. Rotoworld Today, 8:11 am
       
    • Set to be recalled
      The Tigers will recall Meadows from Triple-A Toledo prior to Friday's game against the Reds, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

      Advice: Meadows was sent down by the Tigers in early May after putting up a lowly .443 OPS with a 37.7 percent strikeout rate over 32 games. However, he got back on track at Toledo, slashing .298/.394/.511 with eight home runs, 19 stolen bases and just a 19 percent strikeout rate in 47 contests. Meadows will get regular reps at least against right-handed pitching, and while there's no guarantee he'll be better this time around in the majors, his power/speed combo makes him worthy of being added in most fantasy formats.

    • Moves to leadoff
      Smith batted leadoff and went 2-for-4 in Thursday's 3-1 loss to San Diego.

      Advice: Smith was moved up to leadoff, as a slumping Marcus Semien was given a rare day off. Smith continues to be a surprise and leads the Rangers with a 2.7 WAR. He should continue to see regular work at third base with Josh Jung (wrist) not expected to return until after the All-Star break. Rotowire.com Today, 6:22 am

      X-rays came back negative on Yastrzemski's elbow after he was hit by a pitch Thursday against Atlanta, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

      Advice: Yastrzemski was hit by a pitch in the elbow in the fourth inning and was pulled one frame later. He was diagnosed with a right elbow contusion and is considered day-to-day. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:08 pm
       
    • Exits Thursday against D-Backs
      Heyward exited Thursday's game against the Diamondbacks with an undisclosed injury, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Heyward attempted to rob a home run in the first inning and appeared shaken up afterward. He remained in the game for an additional frame, before presumably being pulled due to an undisclosed injury he sustained from that play. Miguel Vargas entered in left field in his place.
