  • Starting at DH amid stiffness
    Marte is starting at designated hitter Saturday for the second day in a row due to his body feeling a little stiff, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: He socked his eighth home run of the season Friday to extend his hit streak to 11 games. Marte should return to the keystone once he feels right. Blaze Alexander has started each of the last two games at second base. Rotowire.com 5 minutes ago
     
  • Progressing through rehab
    Urshela (hamstring) was with the Rays doing glovework drills Saturday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Urshela has played two games in his rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo. He played at third base in his last outing Friday and went 1-for-3. Urshela is scheduled to play for Toledo on Sunday as he continues to work his way back from a strained right hamstring he sustained April 19 against the Twins. Rotowire.com 17 minutes ago

  • Jasson Domínguez ready to start rehab assignment
    Jasson Domínguez (elbow) is scheduled to begin a minor league rehab assignment next week with Single-A Tampa.

    Advice: Domínguez isn’t expected to return to New York’s lineup, most likely at designated hitter, until sometime in June. The 21-year-old top prospect is working his way back from last year’s Tommy John surgery and figures to make some noise for fantasy managers upon returning, which makes him worthy of a speculative stash in deeper mixed leagues until further notice.

  • Seiya Suzuki back in lineup Saturday vs. Pirates
    Seiya Suzuki is in right field and batting second on Saturday against the Pirates.

    Advice: Suzuki didn’t make an appearance during Friday’s series opener against the Pirates after being activated from the injured list. The 29-year-old draws a tough assignment facing Pittsburgh rookie fireballer Paul Skenes in his first contest since April 14. Rotoworld 36 minutes ago
     
  • Recalled from Triple-A
    Williams was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis prior to Saturday's game against the Cubs, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

    Advice: Ke'Bryan Hayes was placed on the injured list with a back issue, so Williams could see some reps in the infield in the short term. Williams was optioned Friday and never actually got into a Triple-A game. He has a .239/.271/.348 slash line with zero home runs and one steal in 51 plate appearances in the majors.

  • Takes batting practice Saturday
    LeMahieu (foot) participated in batting practice Saturday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: LeMahieu traveled with the team to Tampa Bay and hit off JT Brubaker on Saturday. LeMahieu continues to ramp up his activities as he works his way back from the non-displaced right foot fracture he sustained in spring training. The veteran infielder could be close to starting a rehab assignment, barring any setbacks. LeMahieu made a rehab appearance April 23 with Double-A Somerset, but he was pulled from the game after the first inning due to swelling in his right foot. Rotowire.com 46 minutes ago

  • To IL with back issue
    Hayes was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a back issue, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

    Advice: Hayes hasn't played since Tuesday amid a 3-for-30 slump, and perhaps the back issue is part of the reason he's only hit one home run in 35 games. Alika Williams is getting the call from Triple-A in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com 51 minutes ago

  • Beginning rehab assignment Tuesday
    Dominguez (elbow) will start his rehab assignment with Single-A Tampa on Tuesday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.comh reports.

    Advice: Yankees manager Aaron Boone noted Saturday that Dominguez will be the DH for the first two weeks of the assignment. Dominguez has continued to progress in his recovery from Tommy John surgery from last September, and he can spend a maximum of 20 days on a rehab assignment before the Yankees will have to either activate him or option him to the upper minors.

  • Resting Saturday
    Torres is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Ray, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

    Advice: Torres will not start for the first time since April 20 against Tampa Bay, though he did pinch hit in that contest. Torres is 5-for-30 with five walks and a solo home run in May, and he is coming off an 0-for-4 outing with one strikeout in Friday's win. Oswaldo Cabrera will shift to second base Saturday, while Jon Berti gets the start at third. Rotowire.com Today, 10:46 am
