    • Tommy Pham has three hits in loss to Yankees
      Tommy Pham went 3-for-5 on Friday with a double and a run scored.

      Advice: Pham has been scalding hot since being activated by the White Sox with a .338 average and .866 OPS. All he’s ever done is hit and will have every opportunity to do so as he leads off and plays every day for this dismal White Sox team. Rotoworld 48 minutes ago

    • Colton Cowser drives in two as Orioles crush M’s
      Colton Cowser singled, doubled, walked and drove in a pair of runs on Friday night as the Orioles crushed the Mariners.

      Advice: Cowser clubbed a two-run double off of Bryce Miller in the first inning, extending the Orioles’ early advantage to 4-0. With his two-hit attack, the 24-year-old outfielder is now hitting .263/.348/.509 with six homers, 22 RBI and three stolen bases over 40 games on the season. Rotoworld Today, 6:38 pm

    • Back in starting lineup
      Heyward (back) is starting in right field and batting eighth in Friday's game against the Reds, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

      Advice: Heyward appeared in just five games for the Dodgers, going 3-for-14 with two RBI before landing on the 10-day injured list April 3 due to lower-back tightness. It took about a month for the 34-year-old to return to baseball activities, and he appeared in two games with Triple-A Oklahoma City earlier in the week, going 0-for-6 with one walk and two strikeouts. The move corresponds with Max Muncy being placed on the 10-day IL with a right oblique strain. Rotowire.com Today, 3:22 pm
       
    • Dodgers activate Jason Heyward (back) from IL
      Dodgers activated OF Jason Heyward from the 10-day injured list.

      Advice: As anticipated, the 34-year-old slugger will slot right back into the Dodgers’ lineup on Friday night — starting in right field and batting eighth against Reds’ right-hander Frankie Montas. No word yet on the corresponding move to activate Heyward, but it’s definitely not Andy Pages, who is starting in center field and batting seventh for the Dodgers on Friday night.

    • Evan Carter (back) available off bench on Friday
      Evan Carter (back) was held out of the Rangers’ starting lineup once again on Friday night, but will be available off the bench.

      Advice: The 21-year-old outfielder has been sidelined since Saturday due to stiffness in his lower back. The good news is that he’s progressing and won’t require a trip to the injured list, and likely wouldn’t have been in the starting lineup anyways on Friday with left-hander Tyler Anderson taking the ball for the Angels. Expect Carter to return to the starting lineup at some point over the weekend. Rotoworld Today, 2:30 pm

    • Available off bench Friday
      Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said that Carter (back) is available off the bench for Friday's series opener against the Angels, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Carter hasn't played since May 10 against the Rockies due to lower-back inflammation. He received a cortisone shot Monday, and while he won't be starting Friday, he could make a return to the lineup over the weekend. Carter is slashing .216/.303/.416 with six doubles, five home runs and 15 RBI over 142 plate appearances this season. Rotowire.com Today, 2:23 pm

    • Joey Gallo (shoulder) rejoins Nationals on Friday
      Nationals activated 1B/OF Joey Gallo from the 10-day injured list.

      Advice: The 30-year-old slugger had been sidelined since late April with an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder. Prior to landing on the shelf, he was hitting just .122/.286/.311 with three homers, five RBI, one stolen base and a 43/15 K/BB ratio across 91 plate appearances. He’ll start at first base and bat cleanup against Zack Wheeler and the Phillies on Friday evening in Philadelphia. Rotoworld Today, 2:05 pm

    • Not starting Friday
      Jankowski is not in the lineup for Friday's matchup against the Angels.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting outfielder will start from the bench as the Rangers take on lefty Tyler Anderson. With Evan Carter (back) banged up, Jankowski started the last three games in left field for the Rangers, going 3-for-10 in that stretch. Though Ezequiel Duran will take left field and bat seventh against Los Angeles. Rotowire.com Today, 2:02 pm

    • Full baseball activities
      Garcia (hamstring) has progressed to full baseball activities, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: It's been nearly three weeks since Garcia landed on the injured list with a left hamstring strain. He would appear close to starting a rehab assignment, with a return before the end of May possible. Rotowire.com Today, 1:55 pm
