    • Serving as DH on Friday
      Montero is starting as the designated hitter and batting eighth for Friday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Montero was initially slated to begin Friday's game in the dugout, but he was inserted into the starting lineup after Jake Cave (undisclosed) was carted off the field during batting practice after being hit in the head by a line drive. Montero will face off against Pirates right-hander Carmen Mlodzinski. Rotowire.com 6 minutes ago
       
    • DFA'd by Pirates
      The Pirates designated Goodrum for assignment Friday, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

      Advice: Pittsburgh claimed Goodrum Monday, but he'll return to waivers Friday after going 2-for-15 with seven strikeouts in four appearances with Triple-A Indianapolis. The Pirates are Goodrum's third stop of the season, starting the year with Tampa Bay before spending time in the Angels system. In 33 MLB plate appearances this season, Goodrum owns a .291 OPS.

    • Pirates designate Niko Goodrum for assignment
      Pirates designated INF Niko Goodrum for assignment.

      Advice: Less than a week after being claimed off of waivers from the Angels, Goodrum finds himself off the 40-man roster once more so that the Pirates had a roster spot available for Josh Fleming on Friday. The versatile 32-year-old makes for a nice utility option and will probably attract interest on waivers once again this time around. Rotoworld 12 minutes ago
       
    • Hits first career homer
      Pages went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 3-0 win over the Cubs.

      Advice: Pages opened the scoring with his first career homer, taking Hayden Wesneski deep in the eighth inning. This was Pages' fourth start over the Cardinals' last five games, though he's gone just 3-for-12 in that span. All of his starts have come at catcher, which has taken a small chunk out of Ivan Herrera's playing time recently. Pages is slashing just .125/.231/.250 with seven RBI, four runs scored and one double through 39 plate appearances. With Willson Contreras (forearm) tracking toward an earlier-than-anticipated return, Pages may be on his way back to Triple-A Memphis before the end of the month. Rotowire.com 26 minutes ago
       
    • Logs steal Friday
      Herrera went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk, one RBI, one stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 3-0 win over the Cubs.

      Advice: Herrera is up to four steals this season, three of which he's recorded over 11 games in June. The catcher is batting .316 (12-for-38) this month, adding five doubles, seven runs scored and one RBI. For the season, he's at a steady .273/.335/.366 slash line with three home runs, 17 RBI, 22 runs scored and six doubles over 179 plate appearances. Herrera has started behind the dish just once in the last five games, though it's unclear why his playing time has dipped since Pedro Pages has made little impact with his bat.

    • Not starting Friday
      Guillorme is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Giants, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

      Advice: Despite the Giants sending right-hander Spencer Howard to the mound Friday, the lefty-hitting Guillorme will begin the the game in the dugout. Michael Stefanic will start at second base and bat ninth. Rotowire.com 38 minutes ago
       
    • Sitting again
      Calhoun is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Giants.

      Advice: Calhoun will take a seat for a second straight game Friday, with Kevin Pillar playing left field and batting cleanup while Taylor Ward bats third and DH's. Calhoun is 10-for-30 (.333) in June with five walks and two strikeouts. Rotowire.com 40 minutes ago
       
    • Jake Cave suffers injury during batting practice
      Jake Cave had to be carted off the field on Friday after taking a line drive off his head during batting practice.

      Advice: Cave was down on the ground for roughly 10 minutes before he was carted off the field in a scary situation pregame on Friday. He’ll head for further evaluation. Look for the Rockies to provide an update on his status as soon as one becomes available. Rotoworld 46 minutes ago
