  • 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.

  • Held out of Tuesday's lineup
    Seager (wrist) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Padres.

    Advice: The 30-year-old has had X-rays and an MRI come back negative since being struck in the left wrist by a pitch Saturday in Baltimore, but he'll still sit for the second straight game Tuesday. Josh Smith will receive another start at shortstop as Seager continues to heal up. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 1:05 pm
     
  • Corey Seager (hand) out of lineup Tuesday vs. SD
    Corey Seager (hand) is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Padres.

    Advice: Seager could possibly be available off the bench after imaging came back negative on his left hand, but that’s not known at this time. The shortstop will take a seat to begin Tuesday’s tilt with Josh Smith getting the start at shortstop and Jonathan Ornelas at third base. For now, consider Seager day-to-day.

  • 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 Tuesday, 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 Tuesday, 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 Tuesday, 12:29 pm

  • Absent from lineup
    Arcia is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Giants.

    Advice: Arcia missed two games last week due to dizziness before returning to play the last four contests. He hasn't suffered any known setback, so this would appear to be a routine day of rest. Zack Short will fill in at shortstop. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 12:12 pm
     
  • Orlando Arcia out of lineup Tuesday vs. Giants
    Orlando Arcia is not in the lineup for Tuesday’s tilt against the Giants.

    Advice: Arcia is on the bench with Zack Short playing shortstop for Atlanta. It could be a day of rest for the 29-year-old, but it’s worth pointing out that he missed time while dealing with an illness last week. There’ll be an injury update if necessary, but for now Arcia shouldn’t be in lineups for Tuesday’s contest. Rotoworld Tuesday, 12:07 pm
     
  • MRI negative on Corey Seager’s hand
    An MRI on Corey Seager’s injured left hand came back negative, leaving the shortstop day-to-day.

    Advice: Seager left Saturday’s game after being hit by a pitch and didn’t play Sunday. With no damage inside the hand, he’ll be able to play as soon as he feels comfortable gripping and swinging a bat. Rotoworld Monday, 3:23 pm
