    • Franciso Alvarez out Saturday with elbow soreness
      Francisco Alvarez is not in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Pirates due to left elbow soreness.

      Advice: Alvarez took a 99-mph fastball from Pirates starter Paul Skenes off his left elbow during Friday’s showdown, so it makes sense that he’s going to get some extra time to rest and recover. It’ll be Luis Torrens handling the catching duties on Saturday afternoon in his place. The 22-year-old backstop is probably fine, but it’s something to keep an eye on over the rest of the weekend.

    • Absent from lineup Saturday
      Alvarez (elbow) is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Alvarez went 1-for-3 in Friday's 14-2 loss to Pittsburgh, during which he was struck in the left elbow by a 99 mph fastball from Paul Skenes in the fourth inning, per Pat Ragazzo of SI.com. Luis Torrens will start behind home plate Saturday and bat sixth against Pirates southpaw Bailey Falter. Rotowire.com Today, 10:03 am
       
    • Sitting vs. lefty
      Suwinski is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets.

      Advice: Suwinski went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's series opener, but he will begin Saturday's contest in the dugout with left-hander David Peterson on the mound. Michael Taylor will start in center field and bat ninth. Rotowire.com Today, 9:16 am
       
    • Gleyber Torres out Saturday with groin injury
      Gleyber Torres (groin) is absent from the lineup for Saturday’s contest against the Red Sox.

      Advice: Yankees manager Aaron Boone told reporters Torres could be available off the bench on Saturday afternoon following an early exit from Friday’s game against the Red Sox due to right groin tightness after legging out a fourth-inning infield single. The 27-year-old infielder has been playing through a lingering minor groin issue for the last few weeks. It’ll be Oswaldo Cabrera at the keystone in his absence. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Today, 7:15 am

    • Sitting Saturday
      Torres (groin) isn't in the Yankees' lineup for Saturday's game against the Red Sox.

      Advice: Torres made an early exit from Friday's game due to groin tightness. Although he won't start Saturday, the Yankees are hopeful that the 27-year-old could be available off the bench, per Bryan Hoch of MLB.com. Oswaldo Cabrera will get the nod at the keystone and bat eighth. Rotowire.com Today, 7:11 am

    • Fighting slump
      Candelario went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Friday's 5-4 loss to Detroit.

      Advice: The steal was the fourth of the season for Candelario, who swiped a career-high eight bags in 2023. The corner infielder/designated hitter, who reversed a season-opening slump in June, is back on the skids. Candelario is 3-for-28 with a 30-percent strikeout rate over the last seven games.

    • Marlins release Tim Anderson on Friday
      Marlins released SS Tim Anderson.

      Advice: No team was willing to take on the remainder of Anderson’s salary after he was waived earlier this week by the Marlins. After two consecutive dismal campaigns at the dish, it’s possible he won’t get another shot in the majors moving forward. It’s been a sudden precipitous decline for the 31-year-old shortstop, who was one of the premier performers at his position just a few years ago. He might be able to latch on somewhere on a minor league deal, but that’s probably it at this stage of his career. Rotoworld Today, 4:49 am

    • Bobby Witt Jr. scores run, picks up two hits in loss
      Bobby Witt Jr. went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in a loss to the Rockies on Friday.

      Advice: Witt Jr. has doubled 25 times in 2024, and he came around to score after his two-bagger Friday on a single by Salvador Perez. He came up just short in the All-Star voting, but barring something completely unforeseeable he’ll definitely be involved in the game with a slash of .321/.371/.559 over his 90 games.

    • Power ticking up
      Suwinski went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk Friday against the Mets.

      Advice: Suwinski has had a disappointing season, but he's shown signs of turning things around in a very limited recent sample. Friday's long ball was his eighth of the season, and he now has three extra-base hits across his last four games. Suwinski still has just a .148 ISO and 67 wRC+ for the season, though he's remained in the starting lineup against righties. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:51 pm
