  • Josh Jung (wrist) cleared to resume swinging a bat
    Josh Jung (wrist) has been cleared to resume swinging a bat.

    Advice: Jung remains several weeks away from returning to Texas’ lineup as he continues to work his way back from early-April surgery on his right wrist. He’s not expected to return until at least late June or early July, even in a best-case scenario. Rotoworld 3 minutes ago

  • Willy Adames drives in clutch run to force extras
    Willy Adames went 1-for-4 with an RBI in Tuesday’s loss to the Cubs.

    Advice: Adames came up clutch with a two-out, two-strike single in the bottom of the ninth to drive in Christian Yelich and tie the game at 1-1, forcing extra innings. It was Adames’ lone hit of the night, but it did extend his hitting streak to his seven games. He’s now totaled 10 hits in his last 28 at-bats. Rotoworld 5 minutes ago

  • Michael Busch homers, drives in two in win
    Michael Busch went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Tuesday’s win over the Brewers.

    Advice: Busch got the scoring started for the Cubs in the third when he blasted a solo homer 434 feet to center field. The homer marked Busch’s eighth of the season and his first since May 7th. Busch has hit just two homers since his five-game home run streak ended on April 16th, and he’s hitting just .206/.316/.382 this month. Rotoworld 12 minutes ago

  • Dealing with swollen finger
    X-rays on Lindor's left index finger came back negative after he injured it on a bunt attempt during the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Dodgers, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    Advice: Despite injuring his finger during the first game of Tuesday's action, Lindor was still able to play in the nightcap and go 1-for-4. The 30-year-old shortstop is dealing with a bit of swelling in his finger, so it's possible he sits down for a day or two until the swelling goes down, but a long-term absence seems unlikely.

  • Jose Miranda drives in two in win over Royals
    Jose Miranda went 1-for-4 with two RBI in Tuesday’s win over the Royals.

    Advice: Miranda singled in the bottom of the first two to drive in two runs and gave the Twins an early lead. He’s now driven in four runs in his last two games and has hit safely in 10 of his last 12 games played. The Twins third baseman is slashing a solid .276/.313/.447 on the month and has five homers and 16 RBI on the season. Rotoworld 30 minutes ago
     
  • Hampson drives in one run for Royals in loss
    Garrett Hampson went 1-for-3 with one RBI in Tuesday’s loss to the Twins.

    Advice: Hampson drove in the Royals’ first run of the night when he singled home Nick Loftin in the fifth inning. It was a tough evening for the Royals, as the heart of their order failed to record a hit, leaving Hampson and the lower third of the order to act as run support. Hampson has now hit safely in five straight games but is off the fantasy radar due to his lack of offensive production. He’s driven in just six runs on the year. Rotoworld 35 minutes ago

  • Francisco Lindor dealing with left finger injury
    Francisco Lindor is dealing with a left index finger contusion.

    Advice: The positive news here is that X-rays came back negative on Lindor’s finger after he hurt it attempting a bunt during Tuesday’s doubleheader against the Dodgers. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. It wouldn’t be surprising to see him get a couple days off for the swelling to subside. Rotoworld 35 minutes ago

  • Seager’s homer lifts Rangers over Diamondbacks
    Corey Seager went 1-for-3 with a home run and three RBI in Tuesday’s win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Seager sent his 12th homer of the season 407 feet into the right field stands to give the Rangers a 4-2 lead. It was a three-run homer for Seager, who upped his RBI total to 27 on the season, with 11 of those RBI coming in his last seven games. Seager has now hit safely in 11 straight games, and is slashing an impressive .287/.388/.644 on the month. Rotoworld 42 minutes ago
     
  • Pavin Smith doubles, drives in one in loss
    Pavin Smith went 1-for-2 with a double and an RBI in Tuesday’s loss to the Rangers.

    Advice: Smith doubled off Nathan Eovaldi in the second inning to drive in Christian Walker and give the Diamondbacks an early 1-0 lead. Smith has now tallied four hits in his last 13 at-bats and is well off the fantasy radar at this time. Rotoworld 46 minutes ago
