  • Sitting against lefty
    Black isn't in the Brewers' lineup Tuesday against the Rangers.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Black will take a seat Tuesday as the Rangers prepare to send left-hander Andrew Heaney to the mound. Rhys Hoskins will start at first base while Gary Sanchez works as Milwaukee's designated hitter. Rotowire.com Today, 3:14 pm

  • Optioned to Salt Lake
    The Angels optioned Stefanic to Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday.

    Advice: Stefanic will be squeezed off the big-league roster Tuesday following the return of Miguel Sano (knee) from the injured list. The 28-year-old Stefanic has struggled to establish himself at the plate in 10 MLB games this season, going just 6-for-31 (.194) with four RBI, though he has been able to find success in the minors. He could be a candidate to return later this summer if the Angels run into any more problems with their infield depth. Rotowire.com Today, 2:59 pm
     
  • Angels option Michael Stefanic to Triple-A
    Angels optioned INF Michael Stefanic to Triple-A Salt Lake.

    Advice: Stefanic has been shipped back to the minors to free up an active roster spot for Miguel Sanó to return from the injured list. The 28-year-old infielder’s stellar minor-league numbers haven’t translated to the highest level over the last few years as he holds a .601 OPS with zero homers in 175 plate appearances over 60 games for Los Angeles since 2022.

  • Belts 20th homer
    Ramirez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a stolen base and one additional RBI in Monday's 3-2 win over Baltimore.

    Advice: Ramirez opened the scoring in the first inning with an RBI-single before launching his 20th home run of the season off Orioles starter Cade Povich in the sixth. Ramirez continues to be active on the basepaths, notching his fourth steal over the past week. The 31-year-old is having an MVP-caliber season, batting .276 with 20 home runs, 69 RBI, 59 runs scored and 15 stolen bases in 73 games played. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:41 pm
     
  • Drills 15th home run
    Devers went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer and two runs scored in Monday's win over Toronto.

    Advice: Devers put the Red Sox on the board with a two-run shot in the fourth inning. He has five homers in 20 games this month, though only two have come in his last 16 appearances. Devers bumped his slash line up to a robust .282/.366/.544 with 45 runs scored and 33 extra-base hits. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:40 pm
     
  • Devers has three hits, home run against Blue Jays
    Rafael Devers went 3-for-4 with two runs scored and a two-run home run against the Blue Jays on Monday.



    Advice: Devers’ home run was his 15th on the season. It was his third home run against Blue Jays starter Chris Bassitt in 14 career at-bats and fifth home run in the month of June. Devers is hitting .282 with a .910 OPS and 41 RBI this year.

  • José Ramírez swats 20th homer, Guardians top O’s
    José Ramírez went 2-for-4 with a solo homer and two RBI on Monday, powering the Guardians to a 3-2 victory over the Orioles.

    Advice: Ramírez kicked off the scoring during Monday’s series opener at Camden Yards with a run-scoring single in the opening before delivering a go-ahead solo shot -- his 20th round-tripper of the season -- off Orioles rookie southpaw Cade Povich in the sixth inning. The 31-year-old fantasy stalwart has been the model of consistency for nearly a decade at this point and has shown zero signs of slowing down at all. He’s been on a roll over the last few weeks, batting .317 (38-for-120) with 11 homers and eight steals over his last 30 games. He’s at 20 homers and 15 steals on the season with a real shot at notching his sixth career 20/20 campaign before the All-Star break. Unreal. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:27 pm
     
  • Tyler Black takes seat against right-hander
    Tyler Black is on the bench against a righty Monday for the first time since being recalled last week.

    Advice: Black sat against a lefty in his first day back in the majors, but he had started versus four straight righties since. Tonight, though, the Brewers wanted to give Christian Yelich a day off his feet and put him in the DH spot. Black is 3-for-11 with three walks since being recalled. The Brewers aren’t currently interested in putting Black anywhere other than first base or DH, so when Yelich or someone else besides Rhys Hoskins DHs, there’s no room for Black.

  • Advances to running bases
    Rendon (hamstring) was cleared to run the bases Monday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Rendon continues to take steps forward in his rehab, and Bollinger notes that Monday's workout is the first time he's been given the green light to circle the bases since suffering a left hamstring strain. The 34-year-old remains without a firm timeline for a return, though the club should have an idea of what his minor-league rehab assignment will look like in the near future.
