    • Zach Neto dropped to eighth in Angels lineup
      Zach Neto has been dropped to eighth in the Angels lineup Wednesday against the A’s.

      Advice: Neto has been the Angels’ best player since the end of April, but good luck convincing manager Ron Washington of that. Neto had mostly hit sixth of late. He’s batting .274/.326/.500 since Apr. 29, and he leads the Angels with four homers and 14 RBI in June. Rotoworld 37 minutes ago

    • Taking batting practice
      Bogaerts (shoulder) too batting practice on the field Wednesday, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: It's the first time he's done any on-field hitting since suffering a fracture in his left shoulder in late May. The Padres have not divulged a potential timetable for Bogaerts' return to action, but his recovery appears to be going well. A timeline for the veteran infielder could come into focus in the coming weeks. Rotowire.com 40 minutes ago

    • Mulling rehab assignment
      Rendon (hamstring) said Wednesday that he's "definitely close" and is still deciding whether to go out on a rehab assignment, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

      Advice: A rehab assignment would be sensible considering he's missed two months of action with a high-grade partial tear of his left hamstring. Rendon did say he's open to the possibility of playing rehab games, although the Angels can't force him to do so. Either way, the veteran third baseman should be clear to play in games soon if he's able to sprint on consecutive days without issue. Rotowire.com 49 minutes ago

    • Anthony Rendon (hamstring) close to game-ready
      Anthony Rendon thinks he’s close to returning from a partially torn left hamstring.

      Advice: Fortunately, Rendon is open to going on a rehab assignment, though he doesn’t seem to think he really needs one. Considering that he’s missed more than two months and was hardly tearing it up before getting hurt (.267/.325/.307 in 19 games), it would be for the best if he spent a few days in the minors.

    • Report: Astros add Omar Narváez on Triple-A deal
      The Astros have signed Omar Narváez to a minor league deal, according to KPRC2’s Ari Alexander.

      Advice: The Astros might be more worried about Victor Caratini’s hip injury than they were originally. If Caratini can’t return after the break, Narváez could overtake César Salazar to become Yainer Diaz’s backup. Rotoworld Today, 10:57 am
       
    • Gets MiLB deal from Houston
      Narvaez agreed to a minor-league contract with the Astros on Wednesday, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

      Advice: Narvaez was released by the Mets earlier this month after slashing .192/.254/.259 over 215 plate appearances since the start of the 2023 campaign. The left-handed-hitting catcher will offer experienced depth at Triple-A Sugar Land for now but could be a candidate to join the big-league roster soon with Victor Caratini (hip) expected to be out until after the All-Star break.

    • Getting fifth straight start
      Loperfido will start in right field and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

      Advice: Loperfido will stick in the starting nine for a fifth straight game after going 4-for-13 with two doubles, one walk, two RBI, one stolen base and one run through his first four games since receiving a call-up from Triple-A Sugar Land. Houston has room in its everyday outfield for both Loperfido and Chas McCormick for the moment, but one of the two will likely lose out on playing time once Kyle Tucker (shin) makes his return from the 10-day injured list, perhaps as soon as next week.

    • Not in starting nine
      Adell is out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Athletics.

      Advice: Adell looks to be getting some routine maintenance after starting in each the last four games and 12 of the previous 13 contests. Kevin Pillar will patrol right field for the Angels on Wednesday. Rotowire.com Today, 10:49 am

    • Idle Wednesday
      McCormick is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

      Advice: After starting each of the last three games, McCormick will be the odd man out of the Astros outfield on Wednesday with Houston clearing a spot in left field for Yordan Alvarez, who typically serves as the team's designated hitter. McCormick could be forced to the bench on a more frequent basis once Kyle Tucker (shin) returns from the injured list, though it's not yet clear when Tucker might rejoin the big club while he rehab program has proceeded more slowly than anticipated.
