  • Javier Báez (back) starting rehab assignment
    Javier Báez (back) will begin a minor league rehab assignment on Tuesday with Triple-A Toledo.

    Advice: Báez has been on the shelf since mid-June due to back inflammation and will likely need at least a handful of rehab contests to get back up to speed. It would be an understatement to say that his time in Detroit has been a colossal disappointment since signing a six-year, $140 million deal as a free agent back in 2022. Rotoworld 4 minutes ago

  • Absent from starting nine

  • Dealing with abscessed tooth
    Arcia is out of the lineup for Tuesdya's game against the Giants due to an abscessed tooth, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Advice: Arcia dealt with a bout a dizziness last week and is now managing a tooth issue. The abscess is being addressed Tuesday, so the 29-year-old could rejoin the lineup within the next couple days. Rotowire.com 20 minutes ago
     
  • Orlando Arcia out Tuesday with abscessed tooth
    Orlando Arica is day-to-day with an abscessed tooth.

    Advice: It certainly sounds painful. Arcia is out of the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Giants and isn’t even at the ballpark for the contest due to the issue. It doesn’t sound like he’ll need a trip to the injured list, but he figures to miss at least a couple additional games this week. Rotoworld 31 minutes ago
     
  • David Hamilton on the bench Tuesday vs. Marlins
    David Hamilton is not in the lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Marlins.

    Advice: Hamilton grabs a seat on the bench with Marlins rookie Valente Bellozo taking the ball to open Tuesday’s showdown in Miami. The 26-year-old has been forced to split time with fellow youngster Enmanuel Valdez at the keystone over the last few weeks, which probably works well for the Red Sox, but is a thorn in the side for fantasy managers. It’ll be difficult for him to find everyday playing time unless injuries strike Boston’s outfield, which would lead to Ceddanne Rafaela moving from shortstop to center field.

  • Out of Houston lineup
    Dubon is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Toronto.

    Advice: Dubon has been an everyday player over the last few weeks while seeing action at multiple positions, but he will begin this one on the bench. Yordan Alvarez and Joey Loperfido will occupy the corner outfield spots and Jon Singleton will handle first base. Rotowire.com Today, 1:10 pm

  • Held out of Tuesday's lineup
    Seager (wrist) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Padres.

    Advice: The 30-year-old has had X-rays and an MRI come back negative since being struck in the left wrist by a pitch Saturday in Baltimore, but he'll still sit for the second straight game Tuesday. Josh Smith will receive another start at shortstop as Seager continues to heal up. Rotowire.com Today, 1:05 pm

  • Corey Seager (hand) out of lineup Tuesday vs. SD
    Corey Seager (hand) is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Padres.

    Advice: Seager could possibly be available off the bench after imaging came back negative on his left hand, but that’s not known at this time. The shortstop will take a seat to begin Tuesday’s tilt with Josh Smith getting the start at shortstop and Jonathan Ornelas at third base. For now, consider Seager day-to-day.
