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.comToday, 9:59 am
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.

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.comToday, 9:53 am
Taveras is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Milwaukee.
Advice: Derek Hill was called up from Triple-A Round Rock prior to Wednesday's game and will be put to work right away, stepping in as the Rangers' starter in center field for the resting Taveras. After falling into an extended slump at the plate through the first half of June, Taveras seems to have righted the ship of late with six hits -- including a home run -- and two stolen bases in 21 at-bats over his last seven games.

Jake Fraley was scratched from Wednesday’s lineup because of a lower leg contusion.
Advice: We assume that makes him day-to-day. Levi Jordan has replaced him in the Reds outfield for the game against the Pirates. RotoworldToday, 9:37 am
Rangers select Derek Hill’s contract from Triple-A
Rangers selected the contract of OF Derek Hill from Triple-A Round Rock.
Advice: Hill’s first stint with the Rangers ended prematurely earlier this month because the team wanted to add an infielder due to Corey Seager being banged up. He’ll get another look as a reserve outfielder now. The former first-round pick was hitting .350/.415/.631 with eight homers and seven steals in 42 games for Round Rock. He was 2-for-9 in 2 1/2 weeks with the Rangers before being dropped June 7. RotoworldToday, 9:26 am
Rangers optioned INF/OF Ezequiel Duran to Triple-A Round Rock.
Advice: We thought this might happen when Josh Jung came off the IL, but the Rangers declined to wait that long. Duran was hitting .256/.294/.324 in 187 plate appearances this season, and with Josh Smith thriving, he wasn’t going to play much following Jung’s return. A stint in Triple-A shouldn’t hurt.

The Rangers selected Hill's contract from Triple-A Round Rock on Wednesday.
Advice: Hill was outrighted off the 40-man roster following a brief stint in the majors earlier this season, but he's back with the big club and will start in center field and bat eighth Wednesday in Milwaukee. The 28-year-old sports a career .591 OPS over parts of five major-league seasons. Rotowire.comToday, 9:16 am
The Reds scratched Fraley from the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates due to a right lower leg contusion.
Advice: Per Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer, the injury likely stems from Fraley following a ball off the leg a few days ago. Levi Jordan was a late addition to the Cincinnati lineup and will start in left field while Fraley gets at least one day off to recover from the injury. Rotowire.comToday, 9:15 am
