  • Playing Tuesday
    Ortiz (foot) is batting fifth and playing third base Tuesday against Miami.

    Advice: Ortiz was hit in the foot by a pitch during Monday's loss but won't be forced to miss any time after his X-rays came back clean. Since April 26, Ortiz is batting .328 with five home runs as the Brewers' everyday third baseman. Rotowire.com Today, 12:48 pm
     
  • Cubs recall Luis Vázquez from Triple-A Iowa
    Cubs recalled INF Luis Vázquez from Triple-A Iowa.

    Advice: As expected, Vázquez is up to provide some infield depth for the Cubs. The 24-year-old hit .270 with three homers and a stolen base over 38 games while with Iowa. There’s no fantasy potential for 2024 with Vázquez. Rotoworld Today, 12:29 pm

  • Recalled to big club
    The Cubs recalled Vazquez from Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday.

    Advice: Vazquez, 27, has hit .262 with three home runs over 39 games with Iowa this season. He will provide some protection on the infield with Nico Hoerner (hamstring) banged up and would be making his major-league debut if/when he gets into a game. Rotowire.com Today, 12:26 pm

  • Taking seat Tuesday
    Brujan is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Brewers.

    Advice: Brujan had made 16 straight starts, with the last nine of them coming at shortstop while Tim Anderson (back) was out. Anderson has returned to the Marlins' lineup at shortstop Tuesday, and the club is sticking with Otto Lopez at second base while Brujan gets a breather. Rotowire.com Today, 11:57 am

  • Out again Tuesday
    Steer (ankle) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Padres.

    Advice: Steer was held out of Sunday's game with an ankle injury and remains out of action after Monday's off day. The good news is Steer said Tuesday that he's feeling better and expects to be available off the bench, just as he was Sunday when he served in a pinch-hit capacity, per Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer.

  • Ji Hwan Bae called up, starting in center vs. SF
    Pirates recalled OF Ji Hwan bae from Triple-A Indianapolis.

    Advice: Bae will start in center field Tuesday against the Giants and hit ninth. The 24-year-old had some flashes of success for Pittsburgh in 2023, but he isn’t likely to contribute in enough categories to be a recommended addition in fantasy circles. Rotoworld Today, 11:32 am
