  • Adael Amador dealing with ‘mild’ oblique strain
    Adael Amador was removed from Thursday’s game against the Dodgers due to a “mild” oblique strain.

    Advice: Rockies manager Bud Black characterized it as a mild strain that’s similar to one he was dealing with earlier this year at Double-A Hartford. We’ll see. Amador went 1-for-3 with a single prior to being lifted from Thursday’s contest against the Dodgers in the eighth inning and could wind up requiring a trip to the injured list if he’s unable to play through the injury. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:34 pm

  • McMahon belts 13th home run Thursday
    Ryan McMahon went 2-for-4 with a solo home run against the Dodgers on Thursday.

    Advice: The home run was McMahon’s 13th of the year. It was McMahon’s third game in a row with at least two hits. Over his last eight games, he’s 13-for-33 (.393) with three home runs, nine runs scored and six RBI. McMahon is up to .274 with a .826 OPS and 40 RBI on the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:33 pm
     
  • Leaves game early
    Torres left in the sixth inning of Thursday's game versus the Orioles due to tightness in his right groin.

    Advice: Prior to leaving the game, Torres hit a solo home run in the second inning and then later flied out in the fourth. Ben Rice was substituted into the game at first base for Torres, who started at second. Oswaldo Cabrera shifted over from third to second base. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:28 pm
     
  • Gleyber Torres exits Thursday with groin tightness
    Gleyber Torres was removed from Thursday’s game against the Orioles with right groin tightness.

    Advice: Torres was 1-for-2 with a solo homer before leaving the contest after five innings with New York trailing 11-5 at the time. It sounds like his early exit was merely for precautionary reasons, but that’s purely speculation at this juncture. There should be an update on his status shortly. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:23 pm
     
  • Suffers oblique strain
    Manager Bud Black said Amador was removed from Thursday's game against the Dodgers due to a "mild oblique strain," Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette reports.

    Advice: Amador appeared to be wincing after his at-bat in the seventh inning and was replaced in the field before the eighth frame. The 21-year-old suffered a similar injury earlier in the season while with Double-A Hartford, and it remains to be seen whether he'll require a trip to the injured list.

    Gleyber Torres made an early exit from Thursday’s game against the Orioles with a possible injury.

  • Dylan Moore homers and steals base in loss
    Dylan Moore homered and stole a base Thursday in a loss to the Guardians.

    Advice: Moore shellacked a Logan Allen pitch in the first inning to give Seattle a 2-0 lead. The steal gives the 31-year-old 13 on the season, and it’s the eighth homer of the season. Moore has scuffled in June with a .512 OPS, but he has homered in two of his last three games, and his power/speed combo will always be intriguing. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:41 pm

  • Thairo Estrada not in the lineup on Thursday
    Thairo Estrada is not in the lineup for Thursday’s game against the Cardinals.

    Advice: It appears to be a routine day off for Estrada, who was involved in a minor collision at first base yesterday but remained in the game. The 28-year-old has not been having a great season, hitting .240 with just one steal in 71 games. He’s also hitting .211 with 13 strikeouts over 14 games in June, so things haven’t been ticking up of late either. The Giants will move Brett Wisely to second base and start Nick Ahmed at shortstop.

  • Taking seat Thursday
    Estrada is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Cardinals.

    Advice: The Giants are giving Brett Wisely a start at second base and Nick Ahmed will be his double-play partner at shortstop. It seems to be a routine day off for Estrada, who had started each of the previous 14 contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:30 pm
