  • Drives in two
    Mendick went 2-for-4 with a single and a two-RBI double during Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Mendick entered Tuesday's contest 1-for-14 (.071) in four games since coming off the IL. The 30-year-old delivered a two-RBI double in the eighth inning off Tim Mayza to provide the White Sox with some insurance runs. Mendick has been serving as the White Sox's everyday third baseman with Bryan Ramos (quad) sidelined. Rotowire.com Today, 8:22 pm

  • Stays hot Tuesday
    Keith went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Tuesday's 10-3 loss to the Royals.

    Advice: While the Tigers struggled as a team, Keith continued to roll. The rookie is batting a robust .441 over his last 10 contests and he's recorded three or more hits in a game three times already this month. Keith came into May batting just .154 but he's pushed that up to .230, and the 22-year-old has a prospect pedigree that suggests he'll be able to sustain this level of play.

  • Triples, drives in two Tuesday
    Vierling went 2-for-4 with a triple, a run scored and two RBI in Tuesday's 10-3 loss to the Royals.

    Advice: Vierling picked up the start at third base and recorded his first multi-hit game in two weeks. The 27-year-old has shifted back to a utility role with Gio Urshela healthy once again, though the Tigers will continue to find spot starts for Vierling to keep the veteran Urshela healthy. Vierling's fantasy value is reduced in this setup, but he can still deliver some decent numbers on days when he's in the lineup. Rotowire.com Today, 7:28 pm
     
  • Matt Vierling drives in two in loss to Royals
    Matt Vierling went 2-for-4 with two RBI in the Tigers’ loss to the Royals.

    Advice: Vierling drove in two of the Tigers’ three runs they scored in the fourth inning. His one-out triple brought home Wencel Pérez and Mark Canha and helped cut into what was an 8-0 deficit at the time. Vierling has now driven in 18 runs on the season while also adding three homers. He’s hit safely in five of his last six games but doesn’t provide enough to make him worth starting outside the deepest of leagues. Rotoworld Today, 7:07 pm
     
  • Mark Vientos has two hits, HR in loss to Guardians
    Mark Vientos went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in a loss to the Guardians on Tuesday.

    Advice: Vientos got a rare start against a right-handed pitcher and delivered a double and a home run on the night. The home run was admittedly on a hanging breaking ball that just sat at the top of the zone, but Vientos still crushed it 430 feet at 111 mph off the bat. He followed that up in the next inning with a 106.5 mph double, which gave him the two hardest-hit balls of the night. With Brett Baty struggling, there’s a chance that Vientos will have an opportunity to claim the starting third base role in New York, so he deserves to be added while he’s swinging the bat like this.

  • Losing work to Toro
    Harris isn't in the Athletics' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies.

    Advice: Harris will be sitting on the bench while Abraham Toro starts at third base for the fourth time in Oakland's last five games. Harris hasn't tallied a hit since May 11 and is batting just .128 since coming up from Triple-A Las Vegas on May 3. Rotowire.com Today, 3:01 pm

  • Beginning assignment Tuesday
    Ramos (quad) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    Advice: Ramos was placed on the injured list Friday (retroactive to Wednesday) with a strained left quad, and the fact he is already beginning an assignment in Charlotte means he will almost certainly be activated when eligible Saturday. The 22-year-old infielder was 9-for-32 with two RBI through his first 10 games in the majors before getting hurt. Rotowire.com Today, 2:53 pm

  • Bryan Ramos (quad) starts rehab assignment
    Bryan Ramos (quad) will start a minor league rehab assignment on Tuesday for Triple-A Charlotte.

    Advice: Ramos landed on the injured list last weekend with a left quad strain and is only expected to require a minimum stay. He should be ready to roll later this week or early next week. Rotoworld Today, 2:32 pm

  • Out of Tuesday's lineup
    Urshela is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game at Kansas City.

    Advice: Urshela has gone 4-for-19 with two doubles in six games since he returned from the injured list last week, and he'll take a seat for Tuesday's contest. Matt Vierling will handle the hot corner and bat fifth. Rotowire.com Today, 1:51 pm
