  • Wenceel Pérez homers in win over KC
    Wenceel Pérez went 2-for-4 with a home run in a win over the Royals on Sunday.

    Advice: Pérez’s home run was the first of his MLB career, traveling 370 feet at 103.1 mph off the bat. The rookie is now slashing .286/.359/.514 and was hitting third for the Tigers on Sunday. While he is still not locked into an every day spot in the lineup, there is a path for him to earn more playing time if he keeps hitting like this. Rotoworld 13 minutes ago

  • Maikel Garcia picks up hit in loss
    Maikel Garcia went 1-for-4 with a double in loss to the Tigers.

    Advice: It wasn’t a tremendous performance from Garcia, but the Royals had just four hits on the day. The double gave Garcia a hit in eight of his last 10 games to up his slash line to .223/.276/.384. If he was dropped after his cold stretch, you should be adding him because the 24-year-old remains a talented hitter who will play every day in Kansas City. Rotoworld 15 minutes ago
     
  • Good to go Sunday
    Morel (hip) is starting at third base and batting cleanup Sunday against the Red Sox.

    Advice: The 24-year-old collided with Alexander Canario after making a running catch in the outfield Saturday but is apparently no worse for wear. Morel had a 1-for-32 slump over nine contests in mid-May, but his bat has come alive over his past six games with a .781 OPS. Rotowire.com 28 minutes ago

  • Freddie Freeman homers in loss
    Freddie Freeman went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in a loss to the Blue Jays on Sunday

    Advice: Freeman hit a 425-foot blast off of Kevin Gausman that left the bat at 106.3 mph. It’s just his second home run on the season to fo along with an impressive 19 RBI. Freeman is hitting .306/.425/.435 on the season and while the power may not be as prevalent as he continues to get along, the rest of his offensive profile as remained tremendous.

  • Not in Sunday's lineup
    Sano (knee) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

    Advice: Sano is dealing with inflammation in his left knee and will sit Sunday for the second straight game, and he also exited Wednesday's and Friday's contests due to soreness. Mike Trout will receive a turn at designated hitter while Aaron Hicks starts in center field. Rotowire.com Today, 12:21 pm

  • On bench Sunday
    Ahmed is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Advice: Ahmed started the previous 12 games but will take a seat Sunday after he posted a .616 OPS during that stretch. Tyler Fitzgerald will receive a start at shortstop and bat ninth. Rotowire.com Today, 12:13 pm
     
  • Checks out of starting nine
    Moore is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: After starting each of the past four games at shortstop while producing three hits and adding two stolen bases and one run over 12 at-bats, Moore will give way to Leonardo Rivas in the series finale. Moore should still see the bulk of the starts at shortstop for the duration of J.P. Crawford's (oblique) stay on the injured list. Rotowire.com Today, 11:37 am

  • Draws third straight start
    Raley will start in right field and bat sixth in Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Raley had started both of the last two games in left field, but he'll head over to right field in the series finale while Mitch Haniger gets the day off. Haniger appears to be entrenched as the Mariners' preferred right fielder, but the playing time in left field seems to be tilting in Raley's favor of late. Both Raley and Clase are likely to eventually lose out on opportunities in the Seattle outfield once Dominic Canzone (shoulder) returns from the injured list. Rotowire.com Today, 11:34 am

  • Out of starting nine versus lefty
    Kirilloff is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Kirilloff will bow out of the starting nine with the Angels bringing southpaw Reid Detmers to the hill. Kirilloff had made his last two starts in left field, but Austin Martin will spell him Sunday. Rotowire.com Today, 11:23 am
