  • Commences baseball activities
    Muncy took some groundballs Tuesday as he started up baseball activities after his recent oblique strain, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: The Dodgers placed Muncy on the 10-day injured list Friday due to a Grade 1 right oblique strain. According to manager Dave Roberts, Muncy sustained the strain in batting practice prior to Thursday's game. Before hitting the injured list, the third baseman was slashing .223/.323/.475 with nine home runs and 28 RBI over 167 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:10 pm

  • 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 Yesterday, 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 Yesterday, 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 Yesterday, 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 Yesterday, 1:51 pm
     
  • Running bases
    Lewis (quadriceps) ran the bases Monday, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Advice: After starting with some light running last week, Lewis was able to run the bases for the first time Monday as he continues to rehab from a right quad strain. It's expected that Lewis will need a rehab assignment before returning, which could push his timetable for return into early June. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:42 pm
     
  • Austin Riley remains out Tuesday vs. Cubs
    Austin Riley (side) is not in the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Cubs.

    Advice: No surprise here as Riley will miss his eighth straight contest due to an ongoing side issue after sitting out both contests of Monday’s doubleheader. There’s been zero indication that he’ll wind up requiring a trip to the injured list, despite the fact that he’s yet to resume swinging a bat. It’s a frustrating situation for fantasy managers, but it doesn’t sound like the Braves are going to make a roster move at this juncture. It’ll be Zack Short drawing another start at the keystone on Tuesday night at Wrigley Field. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:41 pm
     
  • Remains out of lineup
    Riley (intercostal) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Cubs.

    Advice: Riley hasn't played since May 12 because of left intercostal inflammation. Atlanta has resisted putting its third baseman on the 10-day injured list so far, and at this point, it would appear the team will continue to wait things out. He was cleared to take soft swings in the batting cage Tuesday, per Mark Bowman of MLB.com, so Riley at least appears to be making progress in his recovery. Zack Short will again be at the hot corner Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:39 pm
     
  • Royce Lewis (quad) making progress in recovery
    Royce Lewis (quad) progressed to running the bases on Monday.

    Advice: Lewis will be re-evaluated later this week to determine where he’s at in his rehabilitation process from a severe right quad strain that he suffered back on Opening Day. The 24-year-old is getting close to starting a minor league rehab assignment and could return at some point next month, barring any setbacks. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:35 pm
