  • Not starting Saturday
    Rogers isn't in the Tigers' lineup for Saturday's game against Arizona.

    Advice: Rogers has gone 0-for-9 and struck out five times across his past three games, so the Tigers will turn to Carson Kelly on Saturday in hopes of getting more offensive output from their catcher. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:21 pm
     
  • Sitting down Saturday
    D'Arnaud (head) isn't in Atlanta's lineup for Saturday's game against the Padres.

    Advice: D'Arnaud exited Friday's contest with dizziness after taking a foul ball off his facemask, but he was cleared of a concussion immediately after the game. As a precaution, Atlanta will give the 35-year-old backstop the next two days off, but he is available to play in an emergency situation, per Mark Bowman of MLB.com. Chadwick Tromp will fill in behind the dish Saturday and Sunday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:50 pm
     
  • Travis d’Arnaud sitting out Saturday vs. Padres
    Travis d’Arnaud (head) is not in the lineup for Saturday’s contest against the Padres.

    Advice: No surprise here after d’Arnaud was removed from Friday’s game after experiencing dizziness following a foul ball to the mask. Initial tests indicated he didn’t suffer a concussion, but he’s had four concussions already in his career, so the Braves are going to proceed with caution. He’s day-to-day with a head contusion for the moment. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:38 pm
     
  • Not starting Saturday
    Ruiz isn't in the Nationals' lineup for Saturday's game against the Phillies.

    Advice: Ruiz is slashing just .147/.190/.221 through 100 plate appearances on the year, so he will give way to Riley Adams on Saturday as the Nats look for more production at the plate from their catcher. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:29 pm
     
  • Patrick Bailey (concussion) resumes baseball activities
    Patrick Bailey (concussion) has been cleared to resume baseball activities.

    Advice: Bailey was evaluated by Dr. Mickey Collins, a concussion expert in Pittsburgh, and has been cleared to resume baseball activities.

  • Sits down versus lefty
    Sabol isn't in the Giants' lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies.

    Advice: Left-hander Ty Blach will start on the mound for Colorado, meaning the lefty-hitting Sabol will begin Saturday's contest on the bench. Curt Casali will start instead behind the dish while batting ninth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:02 am
     
  • Sitting out third straight
    Diaz (hand) isn't in the Rockies' lineup for Saturday's game against the Giants.

    Advice: Left hand soreness will cause Diaz to miss his third game in a row Saturday. The Rockies haven't given any indication that the 33-year-old backstop is trending toward an IL stint, but he may have to spend time on the injured list if his condition doesn't improve within the next couple of days. Hunter Goodman will start behind the plate and bat eighth while Diaz recovers. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:54 am
     
  • Sitting down Saturday
    Rortvedt isn't in the Rays' lineup for Saturday's game against Toronto, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Advice: Rortvedt will take a seat after going 0-for-4 with a run scored and two strikeouts during Friday's series opener. Alex Jackson will take over behind the plate while batting eighth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:38 am
     
  • Clear to resume baseball activities
    Bailey (concussion) was evaluated Friday by Dr. Mickey Collins, a concussion expert in Pittsburgh, and cleared for baseball activities this weekend, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Advice: Bailey has been on the 7-day concussion list twice this month. The catcher is expected to be evaluated by the Giants again next week, so a return is not imminent. Blake Sabol and Curt Casali will continue to share the catching duties until Bailey is activated. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:21 am
