    • William Contreras gets day off Sunday vs. Padres
      William Contreras is not in the lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Pirates.

      Advice: It appears to be a routine off day for Conteras after handling the catching duties in three consecutive contests. The 26-year-old has put together a phenomenal season so far, batting .293/.354/.443 with nine homers and five steals across 339 plate appearances over 75 contests. It’ll be Gary Sánchez behind the plate in his absence. Rotoworld Sunday, 10:47 am
       
    • Back in lineup Sunday
      Rodriguez is starting in center field and batting third in Sunday's game against Miami.

      Advice: Rodriguez received a scheduled day off Saturday, but he's back for the series finale Sunday. On the season, he's batting .264/.313/.352 with seven home runs and 29 RBI over 329 plate appearances while stealing 16 bases. Rotowire.com Sunday, 10:32 am
       
    • Lourdes Gurriel Jr. returns to lineup on Sunday
      Lourdes Gurriel Jr. (elbow) has returned to the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Phillies.

      Advice: Gurriel is back in Arizona’s lineup to face Phillies southpaw Cristopher Sánchez during Sunday’s series finale following a brief one-game absence due to left elbow soreness. It’s a positive sign that he’s ready to return so quickly and it doesn’t sound like it’s going to be a lingering issue moving forward. Rotoworld Sunday, 7:02 am
       
    • Back in lineup Sunday
      Gurriel (elbow) is starting in left field and batting third in Sunday's series finale against the Phillies, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports..

      Advice: Gurriel returns to the lineup Sunday after sitting out of Saturday's 12-1 loss to Philadelphia. He left in the seventh inning of Friday's contest with left elbow soreness, but the injury wasn't severe enough to warrant an X-ray. For the month of June, Gurriel is slashing .333/.352/.536 with four home runs and 12 RBI over 69 at-bats. Rotowire.com Sunday, 6:52 am

The slugger has hit seven of his 16 long balls this season over 17 games in June, batting .359 (23-for-64) in that span. He's up to a .292/.363/.525 slash line, 41 RBI, 43 runs scored and three stolen bases over 74 contests. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:07 pm

    • Yordan Alvarez homers as Astros top Orioles
      Yordan Alvarez hit a two-run homer to help the Astros defeat the Orioles on Saturday.

      Advice: Alvarez hit his 16th homer of the season when he connected on an offering from Corbin Burnes. The pair of RBI gives the 26-year-old slugger 41 on the season. Alvarez remains one of the best power threats in baseball and that’s not going to change any time soon. Rotoworld Saturday, 3:31 pm

    • Not starting Saturday
      Rodriguez is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Marlins.

      Advice: Rodriguez will be in the dugout Saturday for what is a scheduled off day for the 23-year-old outfielder, per Daniel Kramer of MLB.com. For the month of June, Rodriguez is slashing .260/.325/.397 with 12 runs, three home runs and eight RBI over 73 at-bats. Dylan Moore, Dominic Canzone and Luke Raley will man the outfield Saturday.

    • Sitting Saturday
      Gurriel (elbow) isn't in Arizona's lineup for Saturday's game against the Phillies.

      Advice: Gurriel was removed from Friday's game due to a sore left elbow, and it is seemingly bothering him enough to keep him from playing Saturday, though the D-backs don't believe his injury to be anything too serious. Jake McCarthy will slide over to left field while Gurriel recovers, allowing Randal Grichuk to start in right field while batting sixth. Rotowire.com Saturday, 10:51 am
       
    • Julio Rodríguez gets rare day off on Saturday
      Julio Rodríguez is not in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Marlins.

      Advice: It’s an extremely rare off day for Rodríguez, who has been struggling a bit at the dish over the last few weeks, batting .237 (14-for-59) with only two homers and two steals over his last 15 games. Hopefully an extra day of rest will enable him to get back on track at the plate. Rotoworld Saturday, 10:16 am
