  • Out of lineup again Wednesday
    Black is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Rangers.

    Advice: After starting each of the first four games upon his recall, Black has now been out of the lineup for three straight, with two of them coming against right-handed pitching. Jake Bauers will garner a second straight start at first base. Rotowire.com 8 minutes ago

  • Brewers lose Gary Sánchez to IL with calf strain
    Brewers replaced C Gary Sánchez on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to June 24, with a strained left calf.

    Advice: The Brewers don’t think Sánchez’s injury is serious, but they weren’t going to continue to play without a backup catcher. Eric Haase will take his spot at least until he’s eligible to return July 4. Rotoworld 16 minutes ago

  • Brewers call up C Eric Haase from Triple-A
    Brewers selected the contract of C Eric Haase from Triple-A Nashville.

    Advice: Haase will be making his season debut after hitting .279/.367/.503 in 41 games in Triple-A. The veteran was originally signed by the Brewers to serve as William Contreras’s backup, but he lost the gig when Gary Sánchez came on board this spring. He’ll place the ailing Sánchez for at least the next eight days. Rotoworld 18 minutes ago

  • Contract selected
    The Brewers selected Haase's contract from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Haase will be the Brewers' backup catcher behind William Contreras while Gary Sanchez (calf) is out and could see the occasional start at designated hitter versus left-handed pitching. The 31-year-old has an .870 OPS with nine homers at Nashville this season. Rotowire.com 20 minutes ago

  • Placed on IL with calf strain
    The Brewers placed Sanchez on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a left calf strain, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Though the Brewers are labeling Sanchez's injury as a low-grade strain, he wasn't going to be available to play for several days, so Milwaukee opted to deactivate him. Sanchez will be eligible to return July 4, but it's not clear yet whether he'll be ready on that date. Eric Haase was called up from Triple-A Nashville and will step in as the No. 2 option at catcher behind William Contreras. Rotowire.com 23 minutes ago

  • Swats homer Tuesday
    Soto went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, an additional run and two walks in Tuesday's loss to the Mets.

    Advice: Soto plated the Yankees' first run with his solo shot in the fifth inning, though the Mets had already built a big lead by that time. The long ball was the first extra-base hit over the outfielder's past eight games, and he's batted an uncharacteristically poor .160 (4-for-25) during that stretch. Soto has continued to reach base consistently, however, due to his willingness to take a walk -- across the eight-game span, he's accumulated an 11:6 BB:K, and he leads the league with 65 total walks on the season.

  • Remains on bench Wednesday
    Bouchard (back) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

    Advice: Bouchard will miss out on a third straight start while he contends with back tightness, though even if healthy, he might not have been in store for regular playing time. The 28-year-old has provided a .625 OPS over 102 plate appearances in the majors this season. Rotowire.com 26 minutes ago
     
  • Gains regular spot in lineup vs. RHPs
    Cave will start in right field and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Astros.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Cave looks to have moved into a strong-side platoon role in the Colorado outfield. He'll pick up a start in the outfield Wednesday for the Rockies' eighth straight matchup with a right-handed starting pitcher. The 31-year-old owns a .250/.303/.326 slash line with no home runs and two stolen bases over 145 plate appearances on the season, so he'll likely struggle to deliver much meaningful fantasy value even if he continues to see steady playing time versus righties.

  • Taking seat Wednesday
    Goodman is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

    Advice: Goodman is on the bench Wednesday, but he seems to have settling into a near-everyday role of late while moving between designated hitter and catcher. He had started in nine of the Rockies' previous 10 games, going 10-for-37 with five home runs, one double, 10 RBI and seven runs over that stretch. Rotowire.com 32 minutes ago
