  • Paul Goldschmidt resting versus Braves
    Paul Goldschmidt is being rested Monday against the Braves.

    Advice: Goldschmidt’s scheduled day off was originally set for Saturday, but it was pushed back because of Nolan Arenado’s ailments. It’s happening today anyway, even though Arenado still isn’t back. Alec Burleson is playing first base. Rotoworld Monday, 1:56 pm

  • Out against left-hander
    Busch is not in the lineup for Friday's contest against the Mets.

    Advice: The Mets are sending southpaw Jose Quintana to the bump, which means Busch will begin this one on the bench. Patrick Wisdom is getting the start at first base. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:44 am
     
  • Goes yard Tuesday
    Goldschmidt went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk in Tuesday's 9-8 extra-inning loss to the Marlins.

    Advice: Goldschmidt opened the scoring in the first inning with his homer, though the Marlins quickly answered with a three-run blast from Jesus Sanchez in their half of the frame. Goldschmidt has gone 8-for-29 (.276) with two homers over his last seven contests, and he's been held hitless just twice in 17 games in June. Despite the recent consistency, he's slashing just .230/.303/.360 with nine homers, 29 RBI, 35 runs scored and three stolen bases over 70 contests this season. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:52 am

  • Belts homer in loss
    Busch went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk against the Giants in Monday's loss.

    Advice: Busch gave Chicago its first lead with a two-run blast to center field in the sixth inning. It was his first long ball over his past 17 contests and just his second across his past 32 games. Busch began the campaign with six homers through 16 contests, so the fact that he's still yet to reach double digits in that category emphasizes the extent to which he's slowed down. Still, the first baseman has been hitting well lately, batting .370 over his past 27 at-bats. Rotowire.com Monday, 10:47 pm
