    • Absent from lineup versus lefty
      Crow-Armstrong is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

      Advice: This is the first lefty the Cubs have faced since Crow-Armstrong was promoted and he will begin the game on the bench. Mike Tauchman is in center field for Chicago. Rotowire.com 6 minutes ago
    • Dealing with illness
      Grissom (hamstring/illness) won't be activated from the injured list Tuesday, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

      Advice: Grissom was expected to make his MLB debut Tuesday after battling a right hamstring injury throughout early portions of the season. However, it's an illness keeping him from being activated from the 10-Day IL, meaning that the second baseman should be considered day-to-day moving forward. Rotowire.com 9 minutes ago

    • Heading to minors
      Astros GM Dana Brown said Tuesday that Abreu is not with the MLB club and will be optioned to the FCL Astros on Wednesday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: The 37-year-old has struggled to a .099/.156/.113 slash line in 77 plate appearances through the first month of the season, so he'll voluntarily head to Houston's FCL affiliate in an attempt to "get some at-bats and his timing back right," per Brown. It will be the first time in the minors for Abreu, as he immediately joined the White Sox after coming up from Cuba in 2014 and has never had a minor-league rehab assignment.

    • Recieivng MRI on Wednesday
      Yoshida (hand) will undergo an MRI on Wednesday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

      Advice: Yoshida jammed his left hand during Sunday's 5-4 win over the Cubs and was not listed in the Red Sox lineup Tuesday. While he's technically active for the contest, he's unlikely to play. Fantasy managers should have a better idea about the severity of the injury after the results of Wednesday's MRI come back. In the meantime, Tyler O'Neill should handle DH duties. Rotowire.com 16 minutes ago
    • Out against left-hander
      Busch is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Mets.

      Advice: Southpaw Sean Manaea is on the hill for the Mets, so the left-handed hitting Busch will take a seat. Patrick Wisdom will occupy first base for the Cubs on Tuesday. Rotowire.com 17 minutes ago
    • Astros set to option José Abreu to minor leagues
      Astros general manager Dana Brown told reporters Tuesday that José Abreu will be optioned to the minors.

      Advice: Brown adds that the decision is mutual with Abreu agreeing to the demotion to extended spring training to get some additional at-bats and work on his timing at the plate. The 37-year-old slugger, who signed a three-year, $58.5 million pact with Houston prior to last year, is batting .099 (7-for-71) with just one extra-base hit this season through 22 games. The move presumably clears up a spot for top prospect Joey Loperfido to get some extended run as Houston’s primary option at the cold corner. Rotoworld 20 minutes ago
    • Not facing lefty
      Carter is out of Tuesday's lineup against the Nationals.

      Advice: Carter has now sat out each of the Rangers' last three games against left-handed pitching and seems to be falling into a platoon. Wyatt Langford will draw the start in left while Davis Wendzel will handle DH duties Tuesday. Rotowire.com 29 minutes ago
    • Beginning rehab assignment
      Burger (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Burger has been upping his workouts and is ready to play in some games now. The infielder has been on the shelf for the last two weeks with a left intercostal strain. Burger shouldn't need too many rehab games before rejoining the Marlins' active roster. Rotowire.com 31 minutes ago

    • Not starting Tuesday
      Wong is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Giants, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

      Advice: Wong started the previous three games but will sit Tuesday after a team day off Monday, affording him two straight days of rest. Reese McGuire is working behind the plate and batting eighth. Rotowire.com 31 minutes ago
