    • Sitting down Saturday
      Altuve (hand) isn't in the Astros' lineup for Saturday's game against the Twins, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Altuve was diagnosed with a left hand contusion after getting hit by a pitch during Friday's contest. He'll get a day off Saturday in order to heal while Mauricio Dubon starts at second base and bats seventh. Rotowire.com Today, 8:37 am

    • Swipes seventh base Friday
      Schuemann went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in a loss to the Orioles on Friday.

      Advice: The Athletics strung together three singles as part of their five hits on the night, and Schuemann was able to parlay his one knock into his seventh stolen base of the season. The rookie has reached safely in seven of his last eight games, including four straight, a stretch that's resulted in a slight boost for his .229/.321/.330 slash line across the board and includes three of his steals for the campaign.

    • Contributes to win
      Gonzalez started at first base and went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-3 extra-inning win over the Yankees.

      Advice: Gonzalez's fifth-inning homer was all the offense Boston mustered over the first eight innings before its late-game comeback. The utility infielder has mostly worked as a pinch hitter and fill-in at all four infield positions. Gonzalez is 9-for-26 (.346) with three steals, two doubles, a home run, four RBI and three additional runs over 14 games since being activated off the injured list in mid-June.

    • X-rays on hand negative
      X-rays on Altuve's left hand came back negative following his removal from Friday's game versus Minnesota, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.

      Advice: Altuve made an early exit from Friday's game in the eighth inning after taking a pitch off his hand, but he managed to escape the incident with only a bruise. It's possible he sits out a game or two in order to give his hand a chance to properly recover, but an extended absence isn't likely. The 34-year-old is slashing .387/.457/.516 with a homer and five RBI over his last seven games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:52 pm

    • Jose Altuve diagnosed with left hand contusion
      The Astros got good news after Friday night’s victory over the Twins as the X-rays on the injured left hand of Jose Altuve came back negative for any fractures.

      Advice: Altuve was diagnosed with a left hand contusion and is considered day-to-day. It wouldn’t be surprising to see him get a day off on Saturday to be on the safe side, but the 34-year-old infielder shouldn’t be looking at any sort of extended absence. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:50 pm

    • Jose Altuve (hand) leaves game after hit by pitch
      Jose Altuve was removed from Friday night’s battle against the Twins after being hit by a pitch on his left hand.

      Advice: Altuve was clipped by a 94.3 mph sinker from Josh Winder. The 34-year-old superstar second baseman was grimacing and looked to be in obvious pain on the field. He’ll head for X-rays to see if he’s dealing with any fractures. The Astros should have an update on his status after that imaging is complete. In the meantime, all fantasy managers can do is wait and hope for the best. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:00 pm

    • Exits after HBP
      Altuve was removed from Friday's game against the Twins after getting by a pitch, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

      Advice: Altuve took a 94 mph sinker off his left hand/wrist during the eighth inning of Friday's contest and was taken out of the game after conferring with a trainer. He'll presumably undergo imaging in the clubhouse, and the Astros should offer an update on his status after the game. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:40 pm

    • Jeff McNeil homers off Paul Skenes
      Jeff McNeil went 1-for-3 with a solo home run on Friday against the Pirates.

      Advice: McNeil is looking for any signs of life he can and going deep off Skenes is one. He had three hard-hit balls in total and can quickly become relevant again since he’s still in the Mets’ lineup nearly every game. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:23 pm
       
    • Athletics release veteran infielder Aledmys Díaz
      Athletics released INF Aledmys Díaz.

      Advice: The 33-year-old infielder had been designated for assignment earlier in the week and predictably passed through waivers unclaimed. He’s now free to explore employment opportunities elsewhere if he so chooses. Díaz hit a paltry .103/.133/.103 in 29 at-bats with the Athletics this season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:54 pm
