  • Day off Wednesday
    Gorman isn't in the Cardinals' lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Gorman will get a day to clear his head after striking out four times during Tuesday's win over the Halos. Brendan Donovan will fill in at the keystone Wednesday while Alec Burleson, Mike Siani and Lars Nootbaar start across the outfield. Rotowire.com Today, 3:44 pm
  • Sent to Triple-A
    The Giants optioned Reetz to Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: The 28-year-old was called up Monday after being demoted over the weekend, and he'll head back to Triple-A as veteran Curt Casali inked a major-league contract with the Giants. Reetz will continue to serve as organizational catching depth with Sacramento. Rotowire.com Today, 3:35 pm
  • Moved to 60-day IL
    The Giants transferred Murphy (knee) to the 60-day injured list Wednesday, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Murphy was given a 4-to-6 week recovery timeline when he landed on the injured list May 5 due to a sprained left knee. However, his move to the 60-day IL will make him ineligible to return until July 4. The Giants signed Curt Casali on Wednesday to fill Murphy's spot on the 40-man roster and provide emergency catcher depth with Patrick Bailey (concussion) also out. Rotowire.com Today, 3:34 pm

  • Drives in four
    Contreras went 3-for-5 with a home run, a triple and four total RBI in Wednesday's 10-2 win over the Pirates.

    Advice: Contreras got Milwaukee on the board with a three-run, opposite-field blast off Martin Perez in the third inning before tacking on a fourth RBI with a triple in the sixth, his first three-bagger this season. While Contreras had gone 18 games without a home run, he's now recorded at least one hit in nine straight contests, going 17-for-36 (.472) in that span. The 26-year-old catcher is now slashing a robust .359/.434/.553 with six homers, 34 RBI, 39 runs scored and three stolen bases through 196 plate appearances this season. Rotowire.com Today, 3:29 pm
  • Giants transfer Tom Murphy to 60-day IL
    Giants transferred C Tom Murphy to the 60-day injured list.

    Advice: Nothing has changed in the prognosis for Murphy — who is expected to miss four-to-six weeks with a left knee sprain — this was done as a procedural move to free up a spot on the Giants’ 40-man roster for Curt Casali who was signed to a big league deal on Wednesday.

  • Giants option Jakson Reetz back to Triple-A
    Giants optioned C Jakson Reetz to Triple-A Sacramento.

    Advice: With Curt Casali joining the big league roster on Wednesday, there simply wasn’t room for the Giants to carry a third catcher, forcing Reetz back to Triple-A. He’ll continue to serve as extra depth there until he’s called upon once again. Rotoworld Today, 3:23 pm
  • Christian Walker swats solo homer in D-backs’ win
    Christian Walker went 2-for-4 with a solo homer on Wednesday, leading the Diamondbacks to a 2-1 victory over the Reds.

    Advice: Walker crushed a no-doubter to left field off Reds starter Andrew Abbott in the second inning for his eighth round-tripper of the season. It was the first time he’s gone deep since a two-homer outburst back on April 30. The rock-steady 33-year-old veteran first baseman is batting .264/.372/.447 with 30 runs scored, eight homers, 28 RBI and one steal through 44 contests. Rotoworld Today, 3:07 pm
  • Resting against lefty
    Bleday is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Bleday will retreat to the bench while southpaw Framber Valdez takes the hill for Houston. Esteury Ruiz will fill in for Bleday in center field. Rotowire.com Today, 2:59 pm
  • Playing time trending downward
    Brown is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Brown has now sat out four times in five games, with three of his absences from the lineup coming against right-handed pitchers. Brown appears to be moving into more of a part-time role while Brent Rooker and Tyler Nevin have taken on more playing time at the corner-outfield spots and while Abraham Toro has gained traction at designated hitter. Brown has produced a lowly .534 OPS on the season, including a .542 mark against right-handers. Rotowire.com Today, 2:57 pm
