    • Sitting out Wednesday
      Benson is absent from the lineup for Wednesday contest versus the Pirates.

      Advice: It's a rare day off against a right-hander for Benson, as the Pirates are sending righty Luis Ortiz to the hill in the series finale. Nick Martini, Stuart Fairchild and Jake Fraley will be in the outfield for Cincinnati. Rotowire.com 3 minutes ago
       
    • Getting fourth straight start
      Fairchild will start in center field and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Fairchild has largely served as a short-side platoon outfielder this season, but he'll pick up his fourth consecutive start -- with three coming against right-handers -- as a replacement in center field for the injured TJ Friedl (hamstring). The 28-year-old went 3-for-12 with a double, a stolen base, three RBI and a run across his previous three starts and is slashing .216/.297/.331 overall on the season.

    • Could miss multiple days
      Arcia (head) got checked out at a local hospital Tuesday after continuing to feel unwell Monday night, and while tests came back negative, the shortstop could be sidelined for multiple days, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

      Advice: "We'll probably give him two or three days," manager Brian Snitker said prior to Tuesday's game being rained out. "We'll look at him tomorrow and see - he might be available." Arcia left Monday's game due to dizziness that was initially attributed to dehydration, although no official diagnosis has been announced. Atlanta is set to play a doubleheader Wednesday against the Cardinals following the rain-out, but Arcia could end up sitting for the entire twin bill if he's still not feeling 100 percent. Zack Short will handle shortstop duties until he's ready to return, and Luke Williams was called up Tuesday to provide depth at the position. Rotowire.com 5 minutes ago

    • Receiving rest Wednesday
      Candelario is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Candelario will get a routine day off after he had been in the lineup for each of the previous five contests. Spencer Steer and Santiago Espinal will occupy the corner-infield spots for the Reds on Wednesday. Rotowire.com 10 minutes ago
       
    • Kody Clemens (back) homers in rehab appearance
      Kody Clemens went 3-for-5 with a homer in his fourth rehab game for Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.

      Advice: There was a report last week indicating that Clemens would be mostly used in left field on his rehab assignment, but he’s started just one game there thus far. He played second last night, and he’s also started at first base and DH’d once. With seven hits, including two homers and two doubles in his last three games, he appears ready to return from the back spasms that sidelined him for three weeks. Rotoworld 15 minutes ago

    • Starting in place of resting Rortvedt
      Jackson will start at catcher and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Mariners, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

      Advice: Jackson will get a turn behind the plate while top backstop Ben Rortvedt rests for the day game after a night game. Since his call-up from Triple-A Durham on May 3, Jackson is hitting a lowly .081/.159/.161 with 31 strikeouts in 70 plate appearances. Rotowire.com 17 minutes ago
       
    • Brett Baty hits sixth homer since Triple-A demotion
      Brett Baty hit his sixth homer in 15 games for Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday.

      Advice: Baty is hitting .333/.388/.700 with more homers (six to four), more doubles (four to three) and more RBI (18 to 16) in 15 games for Syracuse than he had in 50 games in the majors. The Mets could have recalled him yesterday in place of Starling Marte, but with Mark Vientos having earned regular playing time, they decided against it. A Pete Alonso or J.D. Martinez trade next month could create another opportunity for Baty. Rotoworld 18 minutes ago
       
    • Back in lineup, batting sixth
      Arenado (forearm) will start at third base and bat sixth in the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader versus Atlanta.

      Advice: Arenado had been set to return Tuesday from a left forearm injury before that game was rained out and he remains in the lineup for the makeup game. The six spot represents the lowest Arenado has hit in his four seasons with the Cardinals. He is slashing just .257/.315/.371 on the season and hasn't homered since June 5.

    • Playing time on downswing
      Haniger is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

      Advice: Haniger has picked up just one start in the Mariners' last five games, with Seattle facing five right-handers during that stretch. The Mariners should continue to make room in the lineup for Haniger against left-handed pitching, but Mitch Garver looks to be the preferred option ahead of Haniger at designated hitter when the team faces righties.
