  • Pops fourth homer
    Renfroe went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and two total runs scored in Tuesday's 10-3 win over the Tigers.

    Advice: Renfroe has gone 6-for-24 (.250) with five RBI over his last seven contests. While that's still modest hitting, it's a vast improvement on his .160 batting average for the season. Despite the middling results at the plate, Renfroe has started six of the last eight games in right field and appears to have fended off challenges for playing time from Dairon Blanco and Adam Frazier that popped up earlier in May. Renfroe has four homers, 18 RBI, 15 runs scored, four doubles, no stolen bases and a .518 OPS over 144 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 8:24 pm

  • Corey Julks tallies one steal, two RBI vs. Jays
    Corey Julks went 1-for-3 with two RBI and a steal in Tuesday’s win over the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Julks laced a two-RBI single in the fifth inning off Yusei Kikuchi to give the White Sox a 3-0 lead, and has now hit safely in three of his first four games this season. Julks was called up from Triple-A Charlotte last week after the White Sox acquired him in a trade just days before. Julks has now homered and driven in three runs, and should continue getting opportunities as long as he stays hot. Rotoworld Today, 6:32 pm

  • Joins Giants' roster
    The Giants added McKenna to the 26-man roster Tuesday.

    Advice: McKenna is in the starting lineup for the Giants as the right fielder and batting seventh against the Pirates after being claimed from Baltimore on Saturday. McKenna owns a .224/.302/.332 career slash line across four seasons in the majors, and the 27-year-old will provide depth in an outfield that is now without Jung Hoo Lee (shoulder) for the rest of the season.

  • Sent down to Double-A
    Sabol was optioned to Double-A Richmond on Tuesday.

    Advice: Sabol's absence from the lineup Tuesday versus the Pirates was initially attributed to southpaw Martin Perez being on the mound for Pittsburgh, but this news sheds further light on the matter. Sabol's demotion coincides with Patrick Bailey's (concussion) reinstatement from the injured list and Ryan McKenna's addition to the 26-man roster. Sabol was seeing steady playing time due to injuries to Bailey and Tom Murphy (knee) and produced a .796 OPS across 38 plate appearances, but he's now heading to the Double-A level for the first time since 2022.

  • Not starting Tuesday
    Heyward is not in the Dodgers' lineup Tuesday versus the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Heyward has started in three games since returning from the injured list Friday, recording a pair of hits, including a home run, across 11 plate appearances. With the veteran taking a seat Tuesday, Teoscar Hernandez moves to right field and Miguel Vargas enters the lineup in left field. Rotowire.com Today, 3:09 pm
     
  • Optioned to Triple-A
    The Rockies optioned Bouchard to Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday.

    Advice: With Kris Bryant (back) returning from the injured list, Bouchard will head back to the minors to free up a roster spot. The 28-year-old outfielder has put up a 1.042 OPS in the minors so far, though his numbers fell to .222/.333/.370 across 63 plate appearances upon moving to the big leagues. He would likely return to Colorado later this season if the Rockies find themselves in need of outfield depth. Rotowire.com Today, 2:33 pm
