    • Jake Cave starting again for Rockies
      Jake Cave will start his third game in a row for the Rockies, playing left field and batting eighth.

      Advice: Injuries to Kris Bryant and Sean Bouchard have opened up playing time opportunities in Colorado, and instead of letting young players like Hunter Goodman or Greg Jones play every day, it seems the Rockies are giving Cave that chance. The veteran hit .212/.272/.348 with five homers and 21 RBI in 65 games with the Phillies last year and remains off the fantasy radar. Rotoworld Today, 12:54 pm

    • Back in majors
      The Rockies recalled Toglia from Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday

      Advice: With Kris Bryant (ribs) and Sean Bouchard (foot) headed to the injured list, the Rockies will call upon Toglia to add depth to their depleted outfield group. The 25-year-old owns a .505 OPS through 49 plate appearances in the big leagues this season, but he's slashed .277/.363/.571 with nine homers and 27 RBI since being sent down to Triple-A in late April.

    • Day off
      LeMahieu is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Twins.

      Advice: LeMahieu has now started seven of nine games since his return from the injured list but has gone just 4-for-22 (all singles) at the plate during that stretch. Oswaldo Cabrera will get the call at third base for the Yankees on Thursday. Rotowire.com Today, 12:22 pm

    • Officially placed on IL
      The Rockies placed Bryant on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a left rib contusion.

      Advice: Bryant missed three games in a row due to back soreness, but the Rockies are now reporting his injury to be rib related. The 32-year-old missed a month earlier in the season due to a back/rib issue, though the current injury is likely to require a shorter stint on the shelf. Greg Jones was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Today, 12:12 pm

    • Rockies promote Toglia from Triple-A
      Rockies recalled INF/OF Michael Togilia from Triple-A Albuquerque.

      Advice: The 25-year-old got a chance earlier in the season thanks to a Kris Bryant injury and it looks like he’ll get another one here. He has hit .106/.143/.362 with four homers, eight RBI, and a 20/1 K/BB ratio in 49 plate appearances and should not be on fantasy radars. Rotoworld Today, 12:05 pm
       
    • Kris Bryant lands back on IL with rib contusion
      Rockies placed INF/OF Kris Bryant on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to June 3, with a left rib contusion.

      Advice: Bryant has had just 101 plate appearances this season and is slashing .186/.307/.279 with just two homers and 10 RBI. What injuries have done to the 32-year-old’s career is tough to see. There is likely no fantasy value here. Michael Toglai was called up in a corresponding move. Rotoworld Today, 12:02 pm

    • Exits starting nine
      Joe is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Dodgers.

      Advice: It's the first time since May 13 that Joe has been absent from the Pirates' starting nine. Rowdy Tellez will occupy first base and Edward Olivares will patrol right field while Joe gets some rest. Rotowire.com Today, 11:34 am

    • Tyler Soderstrom starting at 1B for A’s on THU
      Tyler Soderstrom is starting at first base for the Athletics against the Mariners on Thursday.

      Advice: Soderstrom will hit seventh and play first base with J.D. Davis taking a seat. With Davis hitting just .229 on the year, there’s been a chance for the 22-year-old Soderstrom to carve out more playing time. Unfortunately, he’s not hitting well himself, slashing .174/.309/.304 with a 42 percent strikeout rate. Fantasy managers in deep leagues can keep an eye on Sodestrom to see if he can pick it up and earn more at-bats, but he’s not rosterable in leagues right now. Rotoworld Today, 10:00 am
       
    • Homers in return to majors
      Cabbage went 1-for-3 with a solo home run Wednesday against the Cardinals.

      Advice: The 27-year-old was recalled to the majors Tuesday to provide depth while Kyle Tucker (leg) is sidelined. Cabbage drew the start in right field and hit seventh, and he tallied his first home run of the season in the fifth inning. Cabbage isn't likely to earn consistent starts even with Tucker unavailable. Rotowire.com Today, 7:42 am
