  • Taking seat Tuesday
    Murphy is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cardinals.

    Advice: After catching back-to-back games, Murphy will yield to Travis d'Arnaud behind the plate Tuesday. Murphy owns a .618 OPS with a 27.4 percent strikeout rate across 73 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 1:37 pm
     
  • Josh Naylor receives rare day off Tuesday vs. O’s
    Josh Naylor is not in the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Orioles.

    Advice: It looks like merely a routine off day for Naylor, who hasn’t sat out since May 22. The 27-year-old slugger boasts an .823 OPS with a career-high 20 homers and three steals through 73 games so far. It’ll be Gabriel Arias at the hot corner on Tuesday night. Rotoworld Today, 1:13 pm
     
  • Taking seat against LHP
    Naylor is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles.

    Advice: Naylor will get his first day off since May 22, avoiding a matchup with lefty Cole Irvin on Tuesday. Gabriel Arias will bat eighth and play first base. Rotowire.com Today, 12:40 pm
     
  • Getting day off
    Arozarena is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners.

    Advice: Arozarena will get his first true day off of June on Tuesday, with Josh Lowe filling in at DH while Jonny DeLuca plays left field. Arozarena has generated a hit in nine of his last 10 games. Rotowire.com Today, 12:34 pm
     
  • Still out of lineup
    Lowe (toe) isn't in the starting nine for Tuesday's game against Seattle.

    Advice: Lowe will be on the bench for the third consecutive game after suffering a broken right pinky toe Saturday. While he's expected to avoid the IL and was available to pinch hit Sunday, it's slightly concerning he hasn't appeared since sustaining the injury. Jose Caballero will bat third and play second base Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 12:31 pm
     
  • Brandon Lowe out again Tuesday with toe injury
    Brandon Lowe (toe) is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Mariners.

    Advice: Lowe suffered a broken pinkie toe Saturday, and hasn’t been able to play since. The 29-year-old will remain on the bench with Jose Caballero getting the start at second base and Taylor Walls starting at shortstop. Rotoworld Today, 12:22 pm
     
  • Heston Kjerstad starting over Cowser on Monday
    Colton Cowser is on the bench on Monday against the Guardians.

    Advice: After the Orioles called up Heston Kjerstad on Monday, they will now insert him into the starting lineup and move Cowser to the bench. In 46 games since May 1st, Cowser is hitting .182/.285/.299 with a 29 percent strikeout rate, so the Orioles may be willing to move him to the bench full-time to see if Kjerstad can provide them more offense.

  • Held out again Monday
    Lowe (toe) remains out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners.

    Advice: Lowe suffered a fractured right pinky toe when he was hit by a pitch in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Pirates. While the plan is for him to attempt to play through the injury, Lowe has now missed two straight starts. Richie Palacios will again handle second base while Lowe stays off his feet.

  • Sitting in favor of Kjerstad
    Cowser is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Cowser will take a seat against a right-handed starter (Tanner Bibee) for the third time in five games. Though the Orioles haven't publicly said that Cowser -- who is batting .175 in June -- will see fewer opportunities moving forward, the promotion of Heston Kjerstad from Triple-A Norfolk on Monday wouldn't seem to be a positive development for Cowser's outlook. Kjerstad will enter the Baltimore lineup right away Monday, covering Cowser's typical spot in left field while batting fifth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:54 am
