    • Taking seat Friday
      Vaughn is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Brewers.

      Advice: Vaughn will get a day off Friday after appearing in seven straight contests for the White Sox. Instead, Gavin Sheets will play first base and bat cleanup. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:21 pm
       
    • Resting Friday
      Torkelson is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Boston.

      Advice: Torkelson will take a day to clear his head after getting three hits in his last 20 at-bats. The 24-year-old first baseman will cede duties to Gio Urshela, who will bat seventh and get his inaugural start at first base this year. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:00 pm
       
    • Athletics outright Nevin to Triple-A
      Athletics outright 3B Tyler Nevin to Triple-A Las Vegas.

      Advice: Nevin was designated for assignment on Tuesday and cleared waivers. He hit .220 with four home runs in 40 games for the Athletics. Nevin slumped badly in May going 3-for-47 (.064) with one home run. He’ll look to get his bat going again in Triple-A. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:00 pm

    • Outrighted by A's
      Nevin was outrighted to Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday

      Advice: Nevin will stick in Oakland's organization after being DFA'd on Tuesday. He'll look to get his confidence back after going 1-for-43 at the dish with the A's before losing his roster spot. If he turns things around, Nevin could make his way back to the big leagues considering he batted .316 with three homers in April before falling into the slump. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:46 pm

    • Sitting again
      Davis is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Atlanta.

      Advice: Davis will miss a third consecutive game Friday -- each of which has come against right-handed pitching. Considering the 31-year-old has been significantly better against southpaws, he could slip into the short side of a platoon. Tyler Soderstrom will fill in at the cold corner and bat eighth.

    • Ford rejects assignment, elects free agency
      Mike Ford rejected an outright assignment from the Reds and elected free agency.

      Advice: Ford was designated for assignment on Wednesday, but won’t report to the minor leagues. The 31-year-old journeyman first baseman hit .150 with one home run in 17 games for the Reds. He’ll hope to catch on with another team. Rotoworld Yesterday, 11:52 am
       
    • Hitting open market
      Ford didn't accept his assignment to Triple-A Louisville and will become a free agent, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

      Advice: Ford's three-week stint with the Reds came to an end when he was outrighted to Louisville on Wednesday. Instead of remaining in the organization, Ford will forego the remainder of his salary and will enter free agency. He slashed .150/.177/.233 in 62 plate appearances with Cincinnati.

    • Looks like everyday third baseman
      Vientos is expected to serve as the Mets' everyday third baseman after the club optioned Brett Baty to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

      Advice: Baty had started at third base in four of the Mets' previous five matchups versus right-handed pitchers, but the 24-year-old was unable to break out of his extended slump at the plate. He ends his time on the Mets' 26-man active roster having hit just .132 over his last 15 games, leaving Vientos as the big club's top option at the hot corner against both right- and left-handed pitching. Though he's an inferior defender compared to Baty, Vientos has been the far more effective hitter of the two at the big-league level this season, posting a .945 OPS over 48 plate appearances for the Mets. With Baty at least temporarily removed from the mix and a path to regular at-bats having been cleared up, Vientos makes for a worthy pickup for fantasy managers seeking an infusion of power.

    • Heating up at plate
      Meneses went 2-for-4 with a double, a run scored and two RBI in Thursday's win over Atlanta.

      Advice: The 32-year-old has five hits in his last two games, and starting with a May 14 doubleheader against the Red Sox, Meneses is slashing .333/.385/.438 with two doubles, a homer and seven RBI over 13 contests. With the Nationals' lineup fully healthy again, Meneses will need to keep hitting if he wants to maintain regular playing time between first base and DH. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:34 am
