  • Returns to lineup
    Diaz (hand) is in the Rockies' lineup Tuesday versus the Athletics.

    Advice: Diaz missed four consecutive games for the Rockies due to a hand injury, and he had an additional day to recover with the team day off Monday. Jacob Stallings was starting in his place, but the former will return to the bench Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 2:33 pm
     
  • Willson Contreras optimistic on earlier return
    Willson Contreras (fractured forearm) has already had his cast removed.

    Advice: The exact date is uncertain, but Contreras has been cast-less since at least last Friday, May 17. It may have been as early as May 11. “I’m really happy with how the process is going and how well I’m recovering,” Contreras said late last week. “The way I feel, I could say, it’s not going to be (until) the All-Star break. It could be earlier than that. I’m not going to say something that is going to get above the doctors’ opinion, but if you’re asking me how I’m feeling, I’m feeling great.” The Cardinals have yet to comment on Contreras potentially beating his All-Star week return projection, but it is now definitely within the realm of possibility.

  • Cleared to return to action
    Bailey (concussion) was cleared to return to action after being examined by Dr. Mickey Collins on Tuesday, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Advice: Collins, who is a concussion expert, cleared Bailey for baseball activities this past Friday and has now given the go-ahead for the catcher to play in games. While the Giants have not yet made a roster move involving Bailey, it would appear imminent. The 24-year-old has played just one game since May 4 because of concussion issues.

  • Taking seat Tuesday
    Rortvedt is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox.

    Advice: Despite right-hander Cooper Criswell being on the mound for Boston, the lefty-hitting Rortvedt will give way to righty Alex Jackson behind the dish. Rortvedt has two hits in his last 23 at-bats. Rotowire.com Today, 12:05 pm
     
  • Tallies third stolen base
    Lee went 1-for-3 with an RBI, a walk and a stolen base Monday against the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Lee has had a poor start to the White Sox's current road trip, as he's struck out eight times across 13 plate appearances. However, he's been surprisingly aggressive when he's reached base, attempting three stolen bases across in his last five contests and succeeding twice. Lee has slowly taken over the primary catcher role, though he still alternates time behind the dish with Martin Maldonado. Rotowire.com Today, 8:10 am
     
  • Three hits in nightcap
    D'Arnaud went 3-for-4 with an RBI in the second game of Monday's doubleheader split with the Padres.

    Advice: The veteran catcher sat out Sunday's game and Monday's matinee after taking a foul tip off his facemask Friday, but d'Arnaud cleared the concussion protocol and looked none the worse for wear in his return to the lineup. He's slashing .274/.350/.509 through 120 plate appearances this season with five homers and 17 RBI, but with Sean Murphy (oblique) expected to begin a rehab assignment this week, d'Arnaud's stint as Atlanta's No. 1 backstop could come to a close by the end of the month.
