  • Up from Triple-A
    The Mets recalled Vientos from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

  • Corey Seager getting day off Saturday vs. Reds
    Corey Seager and Adolis García are not in the lineup for Saturday’s showdown against the Reds.

    Advice: It’s a routine off day for both Seager and Garcìa with Josh Smith at shortstop and Travis Jankowski taking over in right field. The 30-year-old superstar shortstop could probably use a day off after suffering a left shin contusion earlier this week when he was hit by a pitch. The dynamic duo should return for Sunday’s series finale. Rotoworld 33 minutes ago
     
  • Returns to lineup
    Fraley (illness) is starting in right field Saturday against the Rangers.

    Advice: Fraley has missed the Reds' last six games due to an illness, though he was available off the bench Friday. The 28-year-old outfielder has been a key part of Cincinnati's offense this season, slashing .362/.423/.511 across 52 plate appearances. Rotowire.com 38 minutes ago
     
  • Taking a breather Saturday
    Seager is not in the Rangers' starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Reds.

    Advice: Seager will begin Saturday's game in the dugout as he gets a rest day for the first time since April 15. Since then, Seager has gone 6-for-37 with one run and one RBI. Josh Smith will start at shortstop and Ezequiel Duran at third base against Reds right-hander Hunter Greene. Rotowire.com 42 minutes ago
     
  • Gets breather Saturday
    Candelario isn't in the Reds' lineup for Saturday's game against the Rangers.

    Advice: Candelario will get a chance to clear his head Saturday after going 0-for-15 with eight strikeouts across his last five games. Santiago Espinal will step in to cover third base instead while batting ninth. Rotowire.com 43 minutes ago
