  • Undergoes MRI on knee
    Kiner-Falefa is awaiting results of an MRI on his left knee, Scott Mitchell of TSN.ca reports.

    Advice: Kiner-Falefa was a late scratch from Monday's lineup against the Astros after feeling something in his knee while stretching pregame. Ernie Clement was in the lineup for the Blue Jays on Monday at third base, where Kiner-Falefa has been seeing most of his playing time. It's possible an update on Kiner-Falefa's status will be available later Monday. Rotowire.com Today, 3:11 pm

  • Throws, hits in cage
    Bryant (oblique) did some throwing and hit in the batting cage Monday, Kyle Newman of The Denver Post reports.

    Advice: There remains no timetable for Bryant's return to action, but he does appear to be making progress as he works his way back from a left oblique strain. Bryant has already missed nearly a month of action and will require a rehab assignment before being activated. Rotowire.com Today, 3:06 pm

  • Not in lineup versus southpaw
    Mitchell is absent from the lineup for Monday's contest in Colorado.

    Advice: Mitchell was activated from the 60-day injured list earlier Monday but will begin his first game back on the bench. It's not a surprise, as the Rockies are starting lefty Austin Gomber, and most of the playing time for the left-handed hitting Mitchell figures to come versus righties.

  • Out against left-hander
    Frelick is not in the lineup for Monday's game in Colorado.

    Advice: With the Rockies sending southpaw Austin Gomber to the hill, the left-handed hitting Sal Frelick will take a seat. Christian Yelich, Blake Perkins and Jackson Chourio will be the Brewers' outfield trio. Rotowire.com Today, 2:48 pm
     
  • Returns to Milwaukee lineup
    Ortiz (neck) will start at third base and bat leadoff in Monday's game in Colorado.

    Advice: Ortiz has been absent from the Brewers' lineup for the previous three contests due to neck discomfort, but he's been cleared to return for the start of a road trip. The 25-year-old returns to a .275/.380/.455 batting line. Rotowire.com Today, 2:45 pm
     
  • Brenton Doyle dropped to seventh in Rockies lineup
    Brenton Doyle has been dropped to seventh in the Rockies lineup on Monday.

    Advice: Doyle last hit lower than second on June 10, but this seems appropriate. Doyle has batted just .200/.225/.292 since that date. The Rockies have moved everyone who was batting below Doyle up one spot tonight, with Ezequiel Tovar reclaiming the second spot. Rotoworld Today, 2:41 pm
     
  • Hunter Goodman sits for Rockies on Monday
    Hunter Goodman is back on the bench Monday after making his first start in four games Sunday.

    Advice: It’s like the Rockies stopped viewing Goodman as an option at first base and in right field after Elias Díaz got hurt last month and still haven’t changed that mindset, even though Díaz is back now. Goodman last started at a position other than catcher on June 10. Obviously, Jake Cave is just too good to sit. Rotoworld Today, 2:38 pm

  • MRI comes back negative
    An MRI on Seager's left wrist came back negative, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Advice: X-rays had also previously came back clean, so Seager's return to the Rangers' lineup will be determined by how much discomfort and swelling he's dealing with. The shortstop was injured when he was struck by a pitch Saturday in Baltimore and didn't play Sunday's game, but he has managed to avoid a serious injury and should be considered day-to-day. Texas has a team off day Monday before starting a series at home against the Padres on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 2:38 pm
     
  • Returns to Triple-A club Monday
    Triple-A Reno reinstated Barrosa (undisclosed) from the 7-day injured list Monday.

    Advice: The 23-year-old outfielder missed about three weeks of action during his second IL stint of the season. Barrosa previously appeared in three games for Arizona in early April, but he'll likely stick around at Reno for the foreseeable future unless the Diamondbacks outfield is hit by the injury bug.
