Player Notes

Dan Straily was tagged for six runs and two homers in 4 2/3 innings by the Rangers on Monday.
Advice: Straily had turned in a nice run of outings coming into this one -- he went six straight starts without allowing a homer -- so an odd night in Arlington isn't such a bad sign. He'll have a friendlier matchup in Seattle next time out.

Matt Harvey took a no-hitter into the seventh before giving up three runs in seven-plus innings Tuesday in a victory over the Braves.
Advice: Jason Heyward's infield single ended the no-hit bid; Harvey actually had a play on him, but he didn't think he could make the tag after grabbing the ball towards the first base line and decided to flip to first, which happened to be vacant. Harvey got through that inning scoreless anyway, but the eighth was a different story. He loaded the bases with no outs and then got pulled. After he left, all three runners came around to score. The Braves' official scorer made an egregious call on what should have been ruled an error on David Wright, or he would have only allowed one earned run. It took some of the shine of a dominant effort in which Harvey struck out 13. Still, he did pick up his first win since May 17 and his second since April 19.

Yankees recalled RHP Adam Warren from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Advice: He'll replace Mark Teixeira on the active roster. Warren owns a 3.12 ERA and 27/9 K/BB ratio over 34 2/3 innings of work with the Bombers this season and will operate in middle relief.

Mike Carp (hamstring) is expected to be in the starting lineup for the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Rays.
Advice: Carp left Sunday's game with right hamstring tightness, but it's not a major concern. The 26-year-old is hitting .324 with eight home runs and 25 RBI in 105 at-bats this season.

John Buck hit his first homer since May 24 and just his second since May 3 in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Braves.
Advice: The solo homer gave the former NL RBI leader his first RBI of June. He's hitting .222 in 45 at-bats this month.

J.J. Putz (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Reno on Thursday.
Advice: He'll remain with Reno through next Tuesday, as the D'Backs want him to appear in back-to-back games before being activated. Heath Bell has been scored upon in each of his last three outings and seems likely to cede the closer job back to Putz.

Patrick Corbin hurled eight innings of two-run ball in a no-decision against the Marlins on Monday.
Advice: He gave up just two hits, striking out seven and walking one. Corbin was outstanding outside of a two-run mistake Giancarlo Stanton deposited into the left-field seats in the seventh. Corbin remains a perfect 9-0, to go with an outstanding 2.28 ERA and 1.01 WHIP, but Monday marked the first time Arizona has lost one of his starts. The Snakes are now 13-1 with Corbin on the mound in 2013.

Mets recalled RHP Zack Wheeler from Triple-A Las Vegas.
Advice: The wait is over, as Wheeler is slated to make his long-awaited major league debut in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Braves. The Mets will option Wheeler back to the minors after Tuesday's start, but it's merely a procedural move, as he will function as the 26th man for the doubleheader and will be eligible to return for his next scheduled start next Tuesday against the White Sox. One of the top pitching prospects in the game, Wheeler posted a 3.93 ERA and 73/27 K/BB ratio in 68 2/3 innings across 13 starts this season in Triple-A. Feel free to pick him up in all fantasy formats.

Will Middlebrooks is not in the Red Sox' lineup for the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader versus the Rays.
Advice: Middlebrooks was hitless in the first game, dropping his average down to .196. Jose Iglesias is playing third base in the nightcap.

Yoenis Cespedes is in the designated hitter spot again Tuesday, as his left hamstring still isn't quite 100 percent.
Advice: Cespedes hasn't played the outfield in a week. He should be able to play the field again soon, but the A's are understandably taking a cautious approach with the DH available to use.

Mets placed INF Justin Turner on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to June 17, with an intercostal strain.
Advice: The move clears a spot for Scott Atchison's return from the disabled list. Turner will be eligible to return in early July and has a chance to be ready by then. The 28-year-old is batting .266/.307/.330 in 94 at-bats this season.

Chris Heisey (hamstring) resumed a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville on Monday and went 2-for-4 with two singles and a run scored.
Advice: Heisey served as the designated hitter. The 28-year-old aggravated his hamstring injury during his first attempt at a rehab assignment last month, so the Reds figures to be extra cautious this time around. Still, a return before the end of the month appears realistic if he can avoid setbacks.

Kevin Youkilis has a herniated disc in his back and will undergo surgery to repair it on Thursday.
Advice: He is expected to need about 10-12 weeks of rest and rehab, which puts his season in jeopardy. It's another brutal blow to the Yankees, who have been without third baseman Alex Rodriguez (hip) all year. Youkilis was batting .219/.305/.343 with two home runs and eight RBI in 28 games as A-Rod's fill-in at the hot corner.

Rangers placed OF Jeff Baker on the 15-day disabled list with a sprained right thumb.
Advice: The move is retroactive to June 13, so Baker will be allowed to return in less than 15 days if he's feeling well enough. He suffered the right thumb sprain last week while trying to give a high-five to a teammate.

Pirates re-signed RHP Jose Contreras to a minor league contract.
Advice: Contreras was released by the Pirates last week, but it didn't take the two sides very long to hammer out a new agreement. The veteran right-hander will report to Triple-A Indianapolis and could be an option for the major league bullpen again soon.

Dexter Fowler is not in Tuesday's lineup against the Blue Jays.
Advice: Troy Renck of the Denver Post notes that Fowler was having trouble gripping the bat on Monday, so his right ring finger is apparently still giving him issues. Tyler Colvin is starting in center field Tuesday.

Bobby Parnell picked up a four-out save Tuesday in the first game of the doubleheader against the Braves.
Advice: Parnell struck out Chris Johnson to bail the Mets out of a bases-loaded jam in the eighth and then pitched a scoreless ninth to save the 4-3 game. It was one of his best performances of the season, and he's now 10-for-13 saving games.

Evan Longoria is back at third base for the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Red Sox.
Advice: Longoria served as the DH over the weekend while he was nursing some plantar fasciitis in his right foot. While he's obviously feeling better, it's possible he'll be back in the DH spot for the second game of the doubleheader.
