    • Takes seat Wednesday
      Diaz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.

      Advice: Diaz will rest after he had drawn starts in each of the past six games (four at catcher, two at designated hitter). Victor Caratini will replace Diaz behind the dish Wednesday. Rotowire.com 26 minutes ago

    • Jo Adell strikes out four times Wednesday in loss
      Jo Adell went 0-for-5 with four strikeouts on Wednesday in the Angels’ loss to the Phillies.

      Advice: So much for the whole cutting back on strikeouts storyline. Adell appears to have made some legitimate strides in the plate skills department early on this season, but he looked a bit overwhelmed in this one as he fanned twice in three at-bats against Phillies ace Zack Wheeler before tacking on a pair of additional punch outs later in the contest. He’s been on a tear the last two weeks with three homers and two steals in 12 contests since April 17. Rotoworld 31 minutes ago

    • Out again Wednesday
      Encarnacion-Strand (hand) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Padres.

      Advice: He'll miss a fourth straight start due to lingering left hand soreness following a hit-by-pitch. Encarnacion-Strand has been available off the bench the last two days and presumably will be again Wednesday. He could be back in the lineup Friday against the Orioles after the Reds' off day Thursday. Rotowire.com Today, 10:56 am
       
    • Takes seat Wednesday
      Chourio is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rays.

      Advice: The rookie will bow out of the lineup for the series finale while Jake Bauers picks up a start in left field alongside Blake Perkins and Sal Frelick. After opening his big-league career by producing hits in 11 of his first 13 games, Chourio has fallen into a massive slump since mid-April. Over his subsequent 14 games, Chourio has gone 6-for-43 (.140) while getting on base at a .196 clip. Rotowire.com Today, 8:51 am
       
    • Sits again Tuesday
      Encarnacion-Strand (hand) isn't in the Reds' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Padres, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

      Advice: Encarnacion-Strand will sit for the third straight game after taking a pitch off his left hand during Saturday's win over Texas. He was available off the bench Monday and may still be used if needed Tuesday, but Jeimer Candelario will be the one starting at first base while Santiago Espinal covers the hot corner.

    • CES (wrist) to miss third straight game Tuesday
      Christian Encarnacion-Strand (wrist) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Padres.

      Advice: Encarnacion-Strand will miss his third consecutive contest since being drilled on the hand during Saturday’s game against the Rangers. The positive news here is that he didn’t suffer any fractures and should be ready to return at some point this week. It’ll be Santiago Espinal handling the hot corner on Tuesday night in his absence.

    • Not facing lefty
      Carter is out of Tuesday's lineup against the Nationals.

      Advice: Carter has now sat out each of the Rangers' last three games against left-handed pitching and seems to be falling into a platoon. Wyatt Langford will draw the start in left while Davis Wendzel will handle DH duties Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:01 pm

    • On bench for matinee
      Canha is not in the lineup for Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Cardinals.

      Advice: Canha started the previous seven games and hit .407 with three doubles and two homers during that span, but he'll take a seat for Tuesday's matinee. Riley Greene will receive a turn at designated hitter while Wenceel Perez gets a start in the outfield. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:36 am

    • Continues hot stretch
      Adell went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Monday in a 6-5 win against the Phillies.

      Advice: Adell batted out of the No. 2 spot for the first time this season and immediately made his presence felt with a solo homer in the first inning. The long ball was his second in three games, and he's knocked in five runs over that stretch. Adell has been swinging a hot bat since mid-April -- he's reached base safely in 10 straight contests and is slashing .407/.484/.815 with three home runs, eight RBI, five runs and a stolen base during that span.
