    • George Springer returns from illness Wednesday
      George Springer is back in right field for Wednesday’s game against the Orioles.

      Advice: Springer wasn’t going to start Tuesday, but that game was rained out. He missed three of the previous four games due to an illness. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:30 am
       
    • Returns to lineup
      Springer (illness) will start in right field and bat leadoff in Wednesday's game in Baltimore.

      Advice: Springer has been ill and was set to sit out Tuesday for the fourth time in five games before that game was rained out, but he's feeling well enough to rejoin the starting nine Wednesday. The 34-year-old enters play Wednesday slashing just .140/.170/.160 with a 32.1 percent strikeout rate since April 25. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:21 am
       
    • George Springer (illness) out again on Tuesday
      George Springer (illness) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Orioles.

      Advice: Springer is sitting out for the second straight contest and fourth time in the last five contests due to an ongoing viral illness. It’ll be on-base machine Davis Schneider, who also boasts the fifth-best barrel percentage in baseball this season, taking over the leadoff spot in his continued absence.

    • Sitting again Tuesday
      Springer (illness) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game at Baltimore.

      Advice: Springer returned to action Sunday after missing two games with an illness, and he's out of the lineup again Tuesday for the second straight day. It's unclear if he's expected to be back in action for Wednesday's series finale. Cavan Biggio is starting in right field versus the Orioles. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:15 pm
       
    • Austin Riley sitting out again Tuesday vs. Cubs
      Austin Riley (side) remains absent from the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Cubs.

      Advice: The Braves received positive news earlier this week when an MRI revealed only left side inflammation rather than an oblique strain. The 27-year-old fantasy stalwart remains day-to-day and appears likely to avoid a trip to the injured list at the moment. He should benefit from Thursday’s off-day giving him additional time to rest and recover, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see him return for Friday’s series opener against the Padres.

    • In lineup as DH on Tuesday
      Morel (toe) will start at designated hitter and bat cleanup in Tuesday's game in Atlanta.

      Advice: Morel had to exit Monday's contest after fouling a ball off his left foot, but he's fine. It's his first start at DH in more than a week, which will free up third base for Patrick Wisdom on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 1:49 pm

    • Remains out Tuesday
      Riley (side) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cubs.

      Advice: Atlanta received good news when an MRI revealed merely inflammation in Riley's left side rather than a strain. However, he is likely still sore and will miss a second straight start. With a scheduled off day coming Thursday, it wouldn't be a surprise to see Atlanta hold Riley out until Friday just to be safe. Zack Short is getting another start at third base Tuesday.

    • Homers in consecutive games
      Bogaerts went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Rockies.

      Advice: Bogaerts has doubled his homer total for the year from two to four by going deep in each of the last two games. Prior to the power uptick, he endured an 0-for-15 slump over four contests. The veteran infielder is still battling inconsistency with a .212/.264/.318 slash line, 13 RBI, 23 runs scored, two stolen bases and six doubles through 182 plate appearances this season. He's never posted an OPS lower than .659 in a full campaign, and there's plenty of time for Bogaerts to turn things around in 2024. Rotowire.com Monday, 10:29 pm
       
    • Xander Bogaerts hits fourth homer versus Rockies
      Xander Bogaerts hit his fourth homer Monday in a losing cause against the Rockies.

      Advice: Sure, Bogaerts doesn’t get many hits, but at least two of his three in the last week have been homers. It’s been a scary decline from the 31-year-old, who is both striking out more and hitting the ball less hard than usual. We’re still hopeful that he’ll figure it out, but we were more optimistic a couple of weeks ago. Rotoworld Monday, 9:52 pm
