    • Back in action
      Rutschman (hand) is starting at catcher and batting second Saturday against the Rangers.

      Advice: Rutschman was given a day off Friday after he played through a right hand injury Thursday, and he seems to be feeling better ahead of Saturday's contest. Over his last 10 games, the 26-year-old backstop has gone 15-for-40 with a home run, two RBI and seven runs scored. Rotowire.com Today, 1:34 pm
       
    • Adley Rutschman (hand) returns to lineup Saturday
      Adley Rutschman (hand) returned to the Orioles’ starting lineup on Saturday.

      Advice: The 26-year-old backstop sat out Friday’s game due to soreness in his right hand, but he’s right back out there behind the dish to catch Cade Povich on Saturday night. Rutschman is enjoying another tremendous season at the plate, slashing .300/.351/.479 with 15 homers, 55 RBI and one stolen base through his first 77 games. Rotoworld Today, 1:26 pm
       
    • Swinging bat, plans to catch
      Herrera (back) said Saturday that he has been swinging a bat over the past several days and plans on catching a bullpen session soon, Lynn Worthy of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

      Advice: Herrera added that he may progress to participating in batting practice within the next several days, and a rehab assignment could come shortly afterward if his back responds properly. However, it's possible the Cardinals opt to keep him in the minor leagues once he's activated now that Willson Contreras and Pedro Pages are both on the active roster. Rotowire.com Today, 12:24 pm

    • Mets outright Joe Hudson to Triple-A
      Mets sent C Joe Hudson outright to Triple-A Syracuse.

      Advice: Hudson got into one game earlier this month for the Mets with Luis Torrens away from the club on paternity leave. The 33-year-old journeyman backstop has done a nice job the last few years serving as emergency organizational catching depth for several organizations. Rotoworld Today, 11:55 am
       
    • Gabriel Moreno (thumb) won’t need rehab assignment
      Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Saturday that Gabriel Moreno (thumb) is not expected to require a rehab assignment.

      Advice: Moreno is getting back up to speed in the Rookie-level Arizona Complex League at the moment, but Lovullo made it sound like he’ll return on Tuesday instead of getting into some additional minor league contests. The 24-year-old backstop has been out since last weekend due to a left thumb sprain. Rotoworld Today, 11:35 am

    • Getting Saturday off
      Barnhart isn't in the Diamondbacks' lineup for Saturday's game versus Oakland.

      Advice: The switch-hitting Barnhart owns just a .290 OPS this season against left-handed pitching, so he'll take a seat Saturday as the A's send southpaw Hogan Harris to the mound. Jose Herrera will fill in behind the dish and bat ninth. Rotowire.com Today, 11:05 am
       
    • Idle Saturday
      Murphy isn't in Atlanta's lineup for Saturday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Murphy has gone just 3-for-17 with three strikeouts and four walks over his last six games, and he'll get a day to regroup Saturday as Atlanta faces Paul Skenes and the Pirates. Travis d'Arnaud will start behind the plate instead and bat sixth. Rotowire.com Today, 10:52 am
       
    • Getting Saturday off
      Amaya isn't in the Cubs' lineup Saturday against the Brewers.

      Advice: Amaya struck out in both of his at-bats during a loss in Friday's series opener, and he'll give way to Tomas Nido for Saturday's contest. Rotowire.com Today, 10:49 am
       
    • Getting breather Saturday
      Higashioka isn't in the Padres' lineup for Saturday's game against Boston.

      Advice: The Padres will give Higashioka a day off Saturday after he belted a two-run homer during Friday's win. In his place, Brett Sullivan will start behind the dish and bat eighth. Rotowire.com Today, 10:26 am
