  • Enters as pinch hitter
    Yoshida entered Tuesday's game as a pinch hitter and was hit by a pitch in a 4-1 loss to Cleveland.

    Advice: Yoshida was held out of the starting lineup against a righty, with Red Sox manager Alex Cora explaining that decision was more about getting Tyler O'Neill's bat in the lineup and less about Yoshida, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports. Yoshida will be back in the starting lineup Wednesday, per Cora. Rotowire.com 48 minutes ago
  • Back in action
    O'Neill started at designated hitter and went 1-for-4 in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Guardians.

    Advice: O'Neill was back in the lineup after a stay on the injured list due to a concussion. The Red Sox are coping with injuries to several key players, which means O'Neill's bat should be in the starting nine most days going forward. Rotowire.com 51 minutes ago
  • Fills in at first base
    Dalbec started at first base and went 0-for-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to Cleveland.

    Advice: The day after Boston learned it would be without primary first baseman Triston Casas (fractured rib) for a significant stretch of time, Dalbec replaced him at first base. Unfortunately, Dalbec's season-opening struggles continued. He's now 1-for-32 (.031) with 18 strikeouts. Red Sox manager Alex Cora, in talking with Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe, sounds like he'll roll with Dalbec as the primary fill-in. "We've got Bobby now. He's my first baseman. He'll play," Cora said. "I said, 'Hey man, don't feel like one at-bat is going to dictate what we do with you. Just go out there, have fun, and put a good swing on it, and we'll see what happens.'" For now, it looks like Boston will ride with Dalbec and Pablo Reyes as fill-ins. Rob Refsnyder may also get opportunities there. Rotowire.com 54 minutes ago
  • Reaches base four times
    Montero went 3-for-4 with a double, a walk, an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Padres.

    Advice: Montero tallied his first three-hit game of the season and his second multi-hit effort over a three-game span. His second inning double was his first extra-base hit since April 12 and he also kickstarted a five-run fourth inning with a leadoff single and later walked with the bases loaded in the same frame. The 25-year-old is now slashing .242/.288/.273 with four RBI, three runs and a 5:11 BB:K in 73 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 4:32 am
  • Provides lone offense
    Abreu batted cleanup and went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Guardians.

    Advice: Abreu broke a scoreless tie in the seventh inning with the home run, but the Red Sox were unable to build off it. It was the fourth consecutive game that an Abreu hit gave Boston a lead. The outfielder, who has reached base safely in 11 straight games, is batting .361 (13-for-36) with seven extra-base hits and seven walks during his on-base streak. This was the second straight game at cleanup for Abreu, who is needed to help replace the production lost when the team placed Triston Casas (fractured rib) on the IL. Rotowire.com Today, 4:29 am
  • Lasts four innings in no-decision
    Feltner allowed four runs on 10 hits and two walks while striking out four over four innings in a no-decision against the Padres on Tuesday.

    Advice: Feltner immediately found himself in some trouble with a leadoff walk and a pair of singles to quickly get the Padres on the board. They would plate one more before the inning ended and then got another two runs off him in the third with four more hits in the frame. Four innings pitched was a season low for Feltner, who had to work hard, needing 93 pitches to get through the outing. He was unable to replicate the magnificent start at home he had versus the Rays earlier in the month, but Feltner's managed to keep the ball in the park in his two starts at Coors as opposed to the four home runs he's surrendered in his three road starts thus far. He'll take a 5.68 ERA, 1.74 WHIP and 30:10 K:BB (25.1 IP) into his next outing on the road against the Marlins. Rotowire.com Today, 4:27 am
  • Notches first save of 2024
    Lawrence secured his first save of the season Tuesday in a 7-4 win over the Padres after pitching a scoreless ninth while allowing a hit in the process.

    Advice: Lawrence's save Tuesday was just the second save by a Rockies pitcher this season with Jake Bird getting the other back on April 8. He's now picked up a win and a save in his last two appearances and hasn't let up an earned run since April 10. His ERA is inflated by one rough outing earlier this month, as he now owns a 6.23 ERA, 1.73 WHIP and 9:4 K:BB in 9.2 innings. Rotowire.com Today, 4:14 am
  • Hitless in return
    Heim went 0-for-2 with a walk in Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Mariners.

    Advice: Heim returned to the team following a stint on bereavement leave. Texas' starting catcher is batting .257/.286/.419 with three home runs, three doubles, 15 RBI and seven runs scored over 77 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 4:14 am
  • Launches grand slam in win
    Rodgers went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in the Rockies 7-4 win over the Padres on Tuesday.

    Advice: Rodgers stepped up to the plate in the fourth with the bases juiced and sent a 421-foot blast to left center field to put the Rockies in front 5-4 and they would never look back. It was his first-career grand slam, his first RBI since April 13 and his first extra-base hit since April 12. It's been a rough go at the plate early on for the 27-year-old, as he's slashing just .197/.230/.324 with seven RBI, nine runs and a 3:20 BB:K in 74 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 4:10 am
