    • Receives breather Sunday
      Raleigh is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Raleigh started the past three days after missing one contest due to dental procedure, and he'll sit Sunday with it being a day game after a night game. Seby Zavala is starting behind the plate to catch for righty Logan Gilbert. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:34 am
       
    • Resting Sunday
      Ruiz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

      Advice: After his return from the 10-day injured list Thursday following a bout with the flu, Ruiz started behind the dish each of the past three games, going 1-for-11 with a solo home run and a walk. He'll get a breather for the day game in Miami, giving way to Riley Adams. Rotowire.com Sunday, 8:58 am
       
    • Back in action Thursday
      Raleigh (mouth) will start at catcher and bat third in Thursday's game versus the Rangers.

      Advice: Raleigh missed Wednesday's 5-1 loss following a dental procedure, but he'll be back in action for Thursday's series finale. The switch-hitting catcher enters play Thursday having slugged home runs in four of his last five games. Rotowire.com Thursday, 9:22 am
       
    • Returns from IL
      The Nationals reinstated Ruiz (illness) from the 10-day injured list Thursday. He'll start at catcher and bat fifth in the Nationals' series finale versus the Dodgers.

      Advice: Ruiz missed the Nationals' last 11 games while recovering from a case of influenza. He checked out fine after making two rehab appearances with Double-A Harrisburg earlier this week and should settle back in as the Nationals' No. 1 catcher now that he's been activated from the IL. Washington optioned catcher Drew Millas to Triple-A Rochester in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Thursday, 9:04 am
       
    • Nationals activate Keibert Ruiz from 10-day IL
      Nationals activated C Keibert Ruiz (illness) from the 10-day injured list.

      Advice: The 25-year-old backstop returns to Washington after he was sidelined with the flu. Ruiz has struggled to start the season slashing .194/.265/.290, but he’s keep his strikeout rate low (15%) so fantasy managers could expect some positive regression coming his way.

    • Cal Raleigh hits sixth homer in Mariners’ victory
      Cal Raleigh went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer against the Rangers on Tuesday.

      Advice: The homer, which came on a very poorly placed 0-2 pitch from Dane Dunning, was Raleigh’s sixth in 80 plate appearances. He doesn’t have any other extra-base hits, but this is still just fine. He’s batting .271/.350/.529. Rotoworld Tuesday, 9:15 pm
