  • Yandy Díaz homers in second straight game
    Yandy Díaz went 1-for-4 with a walk, a home run, and two runs scored in a loss to the Yankees.

    Advice: Díaz had a strong series against the Yankees, going 6-for-11 with two home runs across the three games. He’s starting to heat up a bit at the plate and has raised his slash line to .250/.313/.356 with three home runs and 19 RBI. The Rays lineup should trend up in the coming months, and Díaz could be starting to heat up as the summer approaches. Now might be the time to try and see if you can acquire him in a trade.

  • Carlos Santana homers in third straight game
    Carlos Santana homered in a third straight game Sunday against the Blue Jays.

    Advice: It’s the second time in three weeks that he’s homered in three straight games, which is kind of weird, in that he’s hit just one homer in his other 31 games. The three-run shot today accounted for all of the runs off Alek Manoah in the game. Santana also had a single. He’s upped his OPS from .601 to .697 the last three days. Rotoworld Today, 1:30 pm
  • Not starting Sunday
    Brown is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.

    Advice: Brown will sit for a second straight game despite Seattle sending right-hander Luis Castillo to the hill for Sunday's series finale. Since May 1, Brown has gone 2-for-18 with one home run and three RBI. Brent Rooker will start in left field Sunday, while J.D. Davis serves as the designated hitter. Rotowire.com Today, 11:59 am

  • Sitting for series finale
    Soderstrom is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Mariners.

    Advice: Since being recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday, Soderstrom has gone 4-for-12 with one home run and two RBI. He'll be available off the bench for Sunday's series finale while Tyler Nevin gets the start at first base. Rotowire.com Today, 11:50 am
  • Idle against lefty
    Raley is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Raley will retreat to the bench for the series finale with southpaw Alex Wood on the hill for Oakland. Raley's platoon mate, Sam Haggerty, will draw the start in left field. Rotowire.com Today, 11:42 am

  • Sitting against southpaw
    Pasquantino is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Angels.

    Advice: With the Angels sending southpaw Patrick Sandoval to the mound Sunday, the lefty-hitting Pasquantino will get the series finale off. Pasquantino has gone 13-for-36 with one home run and 11 RBI since May 1, and he is up to .248/.329/.445 over 161 plate appearances this season. Salvador Perez will start at first base Sunday in Pasquantino's stead. Rotowire.com Today, 11:07 am
  • Sitting in second straight game
    Montero is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

    Advice: Montero's grasp on the everyday role at first base seems to be slipping, as he finds himself on the bench for the second day in a row. Hunter Goodman -- who went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's 8-3 win -- will draw another start at first base at Montero's expense. Montero has gone 5-for-31 with one extra-base hit (a double) and a 31.3 percent strikeout rate over his last nine games. Rotowire.com Today, 10:55 am

  • Heads to bench Sunday
    Bauers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

    Advice: Bauers is on the bench for the series finale, but after producing a .400/.571/.900 slash line with two stolen bases while starting in each of the past four games, he may have moved back into a near-everyday role. Jackson Chourio -- who had been benched for the past four games -- will rejoin the starting nine and replace Bauers in the corner outfield. Rotowire.com Today, 10:35 am

  • Hitting bench Sunday
    Manzardo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

    Advice: Jose Ramirez is getting a day out of the infield and is serving as the Guardians' designated hitter in the series finale, leaving no room in the lineup for Manzardo. Since getting called up from Triple-A Columbus on Monday, Manzardo is off to an unremarkable start to his big-league career, going 3-for-17 with a double and seven strikeouts through seven games.
