  • Heston Kjerstad sits on Tuesday against southpaw
    Heston Kjerstad is absent from the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Guardians.

    Advice: It’s not unsurprising that Orioles manager Brandon Hyde will roll with right-handed options Colton Cowser and Austin Hays to face Guardians southpaw Logan Allen at the outset of Tuesday’s contest. Kjerstad went 2-for-4 with a double on Monday in his return to the majors and figures to continue playing regularly in a corner outfield spot against right-handed pitching.

  • Sitting out Tuesday
    Stott is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Detroit.

    Advice: Southpaw Tarik Skubal is getting the ball for the Tigers on Tuesday, so it's a sensible spot to give Stott a day off. Edmundo Sosa is handling second base for the Phillies on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:15 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.

  • David Fry in Tuesday’s lineup at DH vs. Orioles
    David Fry (elbow) is in the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Orioles.

    Advice: Fry is back in Cleveland’s lineup for the second straight contest after making an early exit from Sunday’s game agains the Blue Jays due to right elbow inflammation. It obviously doesn’t seem like a massive concern going forward. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:11 pm

  • Taking seat Tuesday
    Brennan is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles.

    Advice: Brennan had started in nine of the Guardians' previous 10 games, but he'll be on the bench for Tuesday's contest with the Orioles trotting out a lefty (Cole Irvin). Instead, Johnathan Rodriguez will play right field and bat sixth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:43 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 Yesterday, 12:40 pm
     
  • Taking seat Tuesday
    Urias is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Guardians, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Advice: Urias had drawn three consecutive starts at third base, but he'll give way to Jordan Westburg on Tuesday. During those three starts, Urias went 0-for-10 and snapped a seven-game hit streak. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:35 am

  • Heston Kjerstad collects two hits, doubles in loss
    Heston Kjerstad went 2-for-4 with a double on Monday in the Orioles’ loss to the Guardians.

    Advice: It’s time for Baltimore to figure out what they have with Kjerstad in an everyday role at this juncture since he literally has nothing left to prove at Triple-A Norfolk. The 25-year-old figures to get an opportunity to play most days against right-handed pitching in a corner outfield or designated hitter role and his minor-league track record suggests he’s going to hit for some over-the-fence pop. There might be an adjustment period here as he acclimates to facing high-level pitching everyday, but he’s one of the more talented hitting prospects in the game. It feels like only a matter of time before he’s an impact four-category fantasy contributor in the heart of Baltimore’s sublime young nucleus. Rotoworld Monday, 6:27 pm
     
  • Triston Casas undergoes MRI to gauge progress
    Triston Casas received an MRI Monday to check up on the progress of the torn cartilage in his ribs.

    Advice: The hope is that he’ll get the all-clear to ramp up his workouts. If that’s the case, then a return before the end of next week might be possible. Rotoworld Monday, 2:37 pm
