  • Placed on injured list
    Drury (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday.

    Advice: Drury exited Wednesday's game after dealing with tightness in his hamstring, an issue he first dealt with in mid-April. He'll be sidelined for at least the next 10 days, leaving Luis Guillorme as the Angels' projected starting second baseman in the short term. Rotowire.com Today, 6:36 pm

    Angels recalled INF Kyren Paris from Double-A Rocket City.

  • Yankees option Ron Marinaccio to Triple-A
    Yankees optioned RHP Ron Marinaccio to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

    Advice: Marinaccio draws the metaphorical short straw with Nick Burdi set to return from the injured list for Friday’s series opener against the Astros. The 28-year-old righty boasts a stellar 1.42 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 10/5 K/BB ratio across 12 2/3 innings (nine appearances) this season in the big leagues. Rotoworld Today, 6:21 pm
     
  • Optioned to minors
    Marinaccio was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes/Barre on Thursday.

    Advice: Marinnacio made eight appearances in the majors since being recalled April 13 and posted a 1.42 ERA and 0.79 WHIP with an 10:5 K:BB across 12.2 innings. Despite being effective, he'll head back to the minors to make room for Nick Burdi (hip). Rotowire.com Today, 6:13 pm
     
  • Yordan Alvarez goes deep in win over Yankees
    Yordan Alvarez went 2-for-5 with a solo homer on Thursday, powering the Astros to a 4-3 victory over the Yankees.

    Advice: Alvarez kicked off the scoring in the opening frame by taking Yankees starter Marcus Stroman deep for his eighth round-tripper of the season. It was the first time he’s left the yard since a two-homer explosion back on April 27, snapping a nine-game homerless drought. The 26-year-old four-category fantasy superstar is batting .245/.325/.448 with 21 runs scored, eight homers and 19 RBI through 163 plate appearances. Rotoworld Today, 5:07 pm
     
  • Aaron Judge clobbers gargantuan 473-foot homer
    Aaron Judge walloped a 473-foot solo homer on Thursday in the Yankees’ loss to the Astros.

    Advice: Judge’s tape-measure shot to left-center field off Astros relief ace Ryan Pressly slashed New York’s deficit to just a single run in the eighth inning. The 32-year-old former AL MVP Award winner has started to heat up at the dish with three big flies in his last four contests. It’s going to take a while for his surface stats to fully recover from his frosty start, but he’s up to .236/.362/.493 with 19 runs scored, nine homers, 25 RBI and two steals through 175 plate appearances.
