  • Getting regular work at first base
    Gallo will start at first base and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Twins, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

    Advice: Since being activated from the 10-day injured list Friday, Gallo has now drawn six consecutive starts, with all coming at first base. While Joey Meneses has moved to designated hitter to accommodate Gallo, the Nationals might not have regular room in the lineup for Gallo once Lane Thomas (knee) returns from the injured list, perhaps as soon as this weekend. Gallo has gone 3-for-17 with nine strikeouts through his first five starts since coming off the IL, and he's produced a career-worst .579 OPS this season while striking out at a 47.3 percent clip.

  • Joey Loperfido on bench for third straight game
    Joey Loperfido is absent from the Astros lineup for a third straight game Wednesday against the Angels.

    Advice: It seems pretty obvious who is getting demoted when José Abreu returns. It’s hardly Loperfido’s fault, though; he’s hit .333/.381/.436 in 14 games since being called up. Unfortunately for him, Jake Meyers and Mauricio Dubón have been hot as well. Rotoworld 38 minutes ago
  • Not in lineup
    Senzel is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

    Advice: Senzel went 0-for-5 with a walk in the first two games of the series and will receive a day off for the finale. The Nationals will roll with Ildemaro Vargas at third base against Simeon Woods Richardson and the Twins. Rotowire.com 38 minutes ago

  • In lineup, but losing work to RHPs
    Florial will start in left field and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Mets.

    Advice: Though the lefty-hitting Florial is starting against a southpaw (Jose Quintana), the Guardians have seemingly pulled the plug on the 26-year-old being a regular part of the lineup versus right-handed pitching. Florial started just once while Cleveland opposed righty starters in each of the previous five contests. Rotowire.com 54 minutes ago
  • Heading to bench Wednesday
    Brennan is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Brennan will head to the bench with southpaw Jose Quintana on the hill for the Mets. While Brennan sits, Johnathan Rodriguez will draw a second straight start in the Guardians outfield to wrap up the series versus the Mets after the rookie went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Tuesday's 7-6 win.

  • Swipes bag in 2024 debut
    Bae went 1-for-3 with a walk, two runs scored and an RBI on Tuesday against the Giants.

    Advice: Bae began the season on the injured list and was optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis upon his activation in mid-April. He started in center field Tuesday and hit ninth, bumping Michael Taylor to the bench. It's unclear how the Pirates will divide playing time in the outfield, though Rowdy Tellez could be the primary player to lose playing time with Connor Joe shifting his primary position from right field to first base.

  • Report: White Sox promoting Zach DeLoach
    The White Sox will likely recall Zach DeLoach as a result of Eloy Jiménez’s hamstring injury.

    Advice: It’ll be the White Sox debut for DeLoach, who likely would have been given a shot weeks ago had he been hitting better in Triple-A. Fortunately, he has picked it up some of late, coming in at .275/.367/.451 in May after collecting just two extra-base hits in April. Rotoworld Today, 7:22 am
  • Goes yard twice in rout
    Buxton went 2-for-5 with two home runs and three RBI in Tuesday's 10-0 win over the Nationals.

    Advice: The 30-year-old slugger took Patrick Corbin deep in the second and fifth innings, his first long balls in four games since coming off the IL and his first multi-homer performance of 2024. Buxton had managed only one home run in 28 games prior to knee trouble that shut him down in early May, but Tuesday's fireworks are a strong sign he's fully healthy. Rotowire.com Today, 7:19 am
  • Chance to keep playing time
    Beck went 0-for-4 with a stolen base Tuesday against the Athletics.

    Advice: Beck has been a regular starter since being promoted April 30, though it appeared that his playing time would be squeezed with the returns of Kris Bryant and Nolan Jones (back/knee). However, Jones suffered a setback on his rehab assignment and Sean Bouchard was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque to make room for Bryant to be activated. That keeps the door open for Beck to maintain regular playing time, though he has just a .212/.212/.348 line across his first 66 plate appearances in the majors. Rotowire.com Today, 7:18 am
