  • Back in starting lineup
    Drury (illness) is starting at second base and batting seventh Tuesday, his first start since June 18.

    Advice: After dealing with a hamstring injury, Drury returned from the injured list June 17. However, since then the infielder has been dealing with an illness that has resulted in multiple late scratches and games on the bench. The 31-year-old came off the bench in Sunday's game but went 0-for-2 with a strikeout. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:03 pm
     
  • Idle Tuesday
    Ortiz isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Tuesday's game versus Colorado.

    Advice: Ortiz was held hitless in five at-bats during his return to the lineup Monday after missing the Brewers' last three games due to a neck injury. He'll get a day to regroup Tuesday while Andruw Monasterio starts at the hot corner and bats ninth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:35 pm

  • Jose Altuve back in Tuesday’s lineup vs. Blue Jays
    Jose Altuve is back in the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Altuve received a rare day off during Monday’s series opener following a sizzling-hot June where he batted .333 (34-for-102) with four homers and five steals over 25 contests. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:29 pm
     
  • David Hamilton on the bench Tuesday vs. Marlins
    David Hamilton is not in the lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Marlins.

    Advice: Hamilton grabs a seat on the bench with Marlins rookie Valente Bellozo taking the ball to open Tuesday’s showdown in Miami. The 26-year-old has been forced to split time with fellow youngster Enmanuel Valdez at the keystone over the last few weeks, which probably works well for the Red Sox, but is a thorn in the side for fantasy managers. It’ll be difficult for him to find everyday playing time unless injuries strike Boston’s outfield, which would lead to Ceddanne Rafaela moving from shortstop to center field.

  • Scratched from lineup
    Lopez was scratched from the lineup for Tuesday's game against Boston for unspecified reasons.

    Advice: Lopez was initially slated to play second base and bat sixth Tuesday but was removed from the lineup for unknown reasons. Vidal Brujan will slide to second base while Emmanuel Rivera enters the lineup at third. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:38 pm

  • Out of Boston lineup
    Hamilton is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Miami.

    Advice: Hamilton has started to cool off at the plate a bit with just two hits in his last 18 at-bats. As a result, he's seen his playing time squeezed, as this is the third time he's been on the bench over the Red Sox' last five contests. Enmanuel Valdez and Ceddanne Rafaela will form the middle-infield combo for Boston on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:34 pm
     
  • Marlins scratch Otto Lopez from Tuesday lineup
    Otto Lopez was scratched from the lineup Tuesday against the Red Sox.

    Advice: Lopez was originally scheduled to get the start at second base, but for reasons that haven’t been announced yet, he’s not going to do that. Vidal Brujan (knee) is back in the lineup as the second baseman, and Emmanuel Rivera is starting at third. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:29 pm

  • Sitting against RHP
    Gordon is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox.

    Advice: Gordon is riding a seven-game hit steak, but he'll be idle for a second consecutive contest despite righty Kutter Crawford being on the mound for Boston. Bryan De La Cruz will fill left field and bat second Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:51 am
