    • Struggles in no-decision
      Peralta (4-3) went 3.1 innings, allowing four runs on four hits and five walks while striking out three Saturday vs the Tigers.

      Advice: Peralta had issues with his command on Saturday, with the five walks being tied for his second most this season. He threw 94 pitches to retire just 10 batters as he found himself in constant trouble with a lot of traffic on the bases. It was the 28-year-old's shortest outing of what has been an otherwise solid campaign, in which he carries a 3.95 ERA through his first 13 starts. Rotowire.com 32 minutes ago
       
    • Tovar goes deep twice against Cardinals
      Ezequiel Tovar went 4-for-4 with two home runs and four RBI against the Cardinals on Saturday.

      Advice: The two home runs give Tovar 10 on the season. He hit a solo home run off Kyle Gibson in the sixth inning and a two-run home run that gave the Rockies a 6-4 lead off Andrew Kittredge in the seventh inning. Tovar is up to .294 with a .813 OPS and 28 RBI on the season. Rotoworld Today, 4:50 pm
       
    • Freddy Peralta struggles with command Saturday
      Freddy Peralta struggled with his command in a no-decision against the Tigers on Saturday afternoon, giving up four runs (three earned) on four hits and five walks in just 3 1/3 innings of work.

      Advice: The right-hander struck out three batters on the day. He had to really labor to get 10 outs in the ballgame, needing 94 pitches (56 strikes) to do so. Most of the damage came during a three-run uprising in the second inning as Carson Kelly and Mark Canha contributed run-scoring singles. Peralta got just five swings and misses in the contest, posting an underwhelming CSW of only 24 percent. He’ll attempt to bounce back as he carries a 3.95 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and a 92/26 K/BB ratio (70 2/3 innings) into Friday’s matchup against the Reds. Rotoworld Today, 4:24 pm
       
    • Battling illness
      Moreno was scratched from Saturday's lineup due to illness but will be available off the bench, Jesse Friedman of GoPHNX.com reports.

      Advice: Moreno and Ketel Marte (back) were both late scratches Saturday, but the pair will be available to enter off the bench. Tucker Barnhart will catch and bat ninth. The D-Backs will finish their series with the Padres on Sunday before a team off day Monday. Rotowire.com Today, 2:45 pm
       
    • Gabriel Moreno (illness) scratched from lineup
      Gabriel Moreno was scratched from the Diamondbacks’ starting lineup on Saturday due to illness.

      Advice: The 24-year-old backstop was feeling a bit under the weather, so manager Torey Lovullo opted to give him the night off. He is expected to be available off the bench and should return to the Diamondbacks’ starting lineup on Sunday. Rotoworld Today, 2:42 pm
       
    • Late scratch Saturday
      Moreno was scratched from the Diamondbacks' lineup prior to Saturday's game against the Padres.

      Advice: No word yet on why Moreno was taken out of the lineup, but the Diamondbacks will likely give an update on his status in the near future. In the meantime, Tucker Barnhart will catch for Ryne Nelson and bat ninth. Rotowire.com Today, 1:30 pm
       
    • Taking seat Saturday
      Turner is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Oakland.

      Advice: Turner will begin Saturday's game in the dugout after going 0-for-3 with one walk and two strikeouts in the series opener Friday. The lefty-hitting Daniel Vogelbach will serve as the designated hitter Saturday and bat sixth against Athletics right-hander Luis Medina. Rotowire.com Today, 10:29 am

    • Alex Bregman reaches three times Friday in return
      Alex Bregman went 2-for-4 with a walk on Friday in his return to the Astros’ lineup.

      Advice: Bregman didn’t skip a beat, reaching base safely in three of his five plate appearances following a brief one-game absence due to left hand soreness. The 30-year-old impending free agent seems like he’ll be good to go moving forward without any lingering concerns. Rotoworld Today, 4:22 am

    • Chris Bassitt masterful Friday in Bay Area return
      Chris Bassitt struck out seven and allowed one run over eight innings on Friday in a no-decision against the Atletics.

      Advice: Bassit was forced to settle for a no-decision against his former organization in an impressive outing at pitcher-friendly Oakland Coliseum. He gave up only four hits and a pair of walks with a run-scoring ground out from JJ Bleday in the sixth-inning representing the lone tally against him in this one. He generated 15 swinging strikes and finished with a 29 percent CSW. It was a performance that should’ve resulted in a victory, but Toronto’s lineup was only able to muster one run on five hits in a low-scoring tractor pull. He’ll square off against the Brewers on Wednesday in his next outing. Rotoworld Today, 3:43 am
