    • Playing time trending up
      Merrifield will start in left field and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Marlins.

      Advice: Merrifield will get his third start in four games and should be in store for an uptick in playing time in the short term after the Phillies recently placed both Bryce Harper (hamstring) and Kyle Schwarber (groin) on the injured list. Through 16 games in June while seeing mostly sporadic at-bats, Merrifield has slashed .216/.293/.297 with one home run and one stolen base. Rotowire.com Sunday, 10:32 am

    • Garcia Jr. has three-hit game in win over Rays
      Luis Garcia Jr. went 3-for-4 with two runs scored, a double and an RBI against the Rays on Saturday.

      Advice: Garcia Jr. scored on a wild pitch in the fourth and on Harold Ramirez’s two-run triple in the seventh. He also had an RBI single. Garcia Jr. is hitting .264 with a .695 OPS and 36 RBI on the season. Rotoworld Saturday, 3:53 pm
       
    • Enters free agency
      Trejo cleared waivers Saturday and elected to become a free agent.

      Advice: Trejo was jettisoned from the Rockies' 40-man roster Friday to make room for Aaron Schunk, and he'll now look for another opportunity elsewhere after passing through waivers unclaimed. The 28-year-old has slashed just .143/.182/.143 in 67 plate appearances this season, and any offer he receives from another organization will almost certainly come in the form of a minor-league deal.

    • Scratched Saturday
      Brujan was scratched from the Marlins' lineup ahead of Saturday's game versus Philadelphia, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: The Marlins have not yet provided a reason for Brujan's removal from the lineup, but the team should offer some clarity in the near future. In the meantime, Jake Burger will shift to third base for Brujan while Josh Bell moves to first, allowing Jesus Sanchez to enter the lineup as Miami's DH. Rotowire.com Saturday, 10:36 am

    • Idle vs. southpaw Saturday
      Horwitz is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Yankees.

      Advice: Horwitz will begin Saturday's game in the dugout with the Yankees sending southpaw Nestor Cortes to the mound. Horwitz went 1-for-4 in Friday's 16-5 loss to the Yankees, and for the season he's slashing .340/.484/.500 with two home runs and six RBI over 64 plate appearances. Isiah Kiner-Falefa will start at second base Saturday and bat second. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:33 am

    • Riding pine Friday
      McKinstry is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Angels.

    • Dropped from 40-man roster
      The Rockies designated Trejo for assignment Friday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Trejo had seen semi-regular playing time in June while Brendan Rodgers was injured, but he went just 6-for-29 (.207) with four runs and an RBI since the start of the month. Trejo will hand over his spot on the 40-man and 26-man roster to Aaron Schunk, who'll provide some infield depth for the Rockies. Rotowire.com Friday, 12:37 pm
