    • Ryan Bliss collects first MLB homer in loss to KC
      Ryan Bliss hit a two-run homer in a loss to the Royals on Friday.

      Advice: Bliss absolutely clobbered a Daniel Lynch IV offering to left field in the first inning to give Seattle a 7-0 lead and Bliss his first ever MLB homer. The 24-year-old has hit just .188 thus far in the majors, but his .350 on-base percentage does show that he has been more than willing to reach via walk. There is some potential long-term fantasy upside in his right-handed bat. Rotoworld 32 minutes ago

    • Gavin Lux finishes 0-for-5 against Yankees
      Gavin Lux finished 0-for-5 against the Yankees on Friday.

      Advice: Lux wasn’t too bad from late April through the end of May, but he is 2-for-17 this month, leaving him at .204/.257/.281 overall. If things don’t turn around, the Dodgers will have to think about going with Miguel Rojas at short and Mookie Betts at second after Max Muncy is back. Really, they could just make the change now by calling up Andre Lipcius to play third. Rotoworld 45 minutes ago

    • Designated for assignment
      The Blue Jays designated Biggio for assignment Friday, Mike Wilner of the Toronto Star reports.

      Advice: In order to make room on the active roster for Spencer Horwitz, who was recalled from Triple-A Buffalo on Friday, the Blue Jays will push Biggio off their 40-man. The 29-year-old utility man began the year as an everyday starter, but he began losing work after slashing .200/.323/.291 with nine RBI through 130 plate appearances. Although his .614 OPS on the year represents the lowest mark of his six-year MLB career, his defensive versatility could still make him an attractive option for other organizations.

    • Blue Jays designate Cavan Biggio for assignment
      Blue Jays designated INF-OF Cavan Biggio for assignment,

      Advice: Spencer Horwitz is coming up in his place. Biggio saved himself from being non-tendered with a strong finish last season, but he could never get it going this year, batting .200/.323/.291 with two homers in 131 plate appearances. While he has versatility working in his favor, he’s not particularly good at any position, and he’s hit .219/.327/.351 since the beginning of 2021. The Jays will try to trade Biggio, but that might require taking on part of the approx. $2.4 million he’s still owed over the rest of the season. If he clears waivers because of that salary, he’ll likely remain with the organization, since he doesn’t have the service time to reject the assignment and still collect the money.

    • Fielding, could hit Friday
      Mateo (concussion) took ground balls Friday and could participate in batting practice, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Mateo was able to play catch Thursday and took another step forward in his rehab from a concussion he sustained June 2. The second baseman appears to be on track to return next week. Rotowire.com Today, 1:53 pm

    • On bench Friday
      Valdez is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the White Sox, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

      Advice: Valdez will dodge a matchup with southpaw Garrett Crochet, giving way to Jamie Westbrook at second base Friday. Since Vaughn Grissom (hamstring) got hurt on June 1, Valdez is 7-for-20 with three homers, eight RBI and one strikeout. Rotowire.com Today, 1:41 pm
       
    • Marlins recall SS Edwards from Triple-A
      Marlins recalled SS Xavier Edwards from Triple-A Jacksonville.

      Advice: The Marlins need infield depth with Tim Anderson on the bereavement list and Otto Lopez on the paternity list. Edwards was hitting .365 with no home runs in 13 games with Triple-A. He’s batting first for the Marlins in Friday night’s game against the Guardians. Rotoworld Today, 12:50 pm
       
    • Marlins place Lopez on paternity list
      Marlins placed SS Otto Lopez on paternity list.

      Advice: Lopez will be away from the team for three days as he takes care of things much more important than baseball. Lopez is hitting .295 with three home runs in 95 at-bats with Miami this season. Rotoworld Today, 12:44 pm

    • Pirates optioned Liover Peguero to Triple-A
      Pirates optioned INF Liover Peguero to Triple-A Indianapolis.

      Advice: Peguero was recalled earlier this week with Michael A. Taylor going on the paternity list. Now that Taylor is back, Peguero is on his way back to Triple-A. The 23-year-old infielder could be a bench option again at some point for the Pirates. Rotoworld Today, 12:35 pm
