  • Perez has two-hit game in win Thursday
    Salvador Perez went 2-for-3 against the Guardians on Thursday.

    Advice: Perez has hit safely in four consecutive games. He’s seen his average drop from .321 at the end of May to .283. The Royals lineup desperately needs his bat to wake up again. This was only his third multi-hit game in June, but maybe it’s the start of a hot streak. Rotoworld Today, 7:44 pm
     
  • McArthur picks up 14th save against Royals
    James McArthur tossed a scoreless ninth inning and picked up the save against the Guardians on Thursday.

    Advice: The save was his 14th of the season. McArthur has a 4.41 ERA after another scoreless outing. There’s no question that he’s the Royals’ best option for saves going forward. Rotoworld Today, 7:36 pm
     
  • Snags seventh win
    Neris (7-2) tossed a scoreless ninth inning with two strikeouts to earn the win in Thursday's 5-3, 10-inning victory over the Giants.

    Advice: Neris went through a rough patch earlier this month but he's pitched better lately, tossing scoreless innings in consecutive outings with four total strikeouts. The veteran once again didn't see a save opportunity, as that went to Porter Hodge on Thursday, but it was encouraging to see Neris still work in a high-leverage spot. He figures to remain Chicago's closer moving forward, though he could be replaced if his struggles resurface. Rotowire.com Today, 7:23 pm
     
  • Expecting to play Friday
    Correa (wrist) anticipates that he will be in the lineup Friday against the Mariners, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Advice: Correa was hit in the wrist by a pitch Thursday in the seventh inning and immediately left the game. X-rays came back clean, and he told reporters after the game that he's confident he'll be in the lineup to start the Twins' series against Seattle on Friday. There has not been confirmation from the team the Correa will start. Rotowire.com Today, 4:31 pm

  • Could be back Friday
    Manager Aaron Boone said there's a "good chance" Torres returns to the lineup Friday, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

    Advice: Torres has been out of the lineup Wednesday and Thursday after slumping both at the plate and with the glove of late. Boone did not commit to any specific plan, so it will be important to check the official lineup before Friday's 7:07 pm ET first pitch. Rotowire.com Today, 4:21 pm
     
  • X-rays negative
    X-rays on Correa's right forearm/wrist came back negative after he was removed from Thursday's game against the Diamondbacks, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Correa immediately made his way into the Twins' clubhouse after getting hit in the arm by a pitch during the seventh inning, but it appears he managed to escape the incident with minimal damage. The team has officially labeled his injury a right wrist contusion, and he is viewed as day-to-day. Should the Twins decide to give the 29-year-old a day or two to heal, Kyle Farmer and Willi Castro would be the next options at shortstop. Rotowire.com Today, 3:40 pm

  • X-rays negative on Carlos Correa’s right wrist
    X-rays came back negative on Carlos Correa’s right wrist.

    Advice: It’s the best-case scenario outcome for Correa after he was drilled on the right forearm by a 94-mph fastball during Thursday’s blowout against the Diamondbacks. The 29-year-old shortstop is officially day-to-day with a right wrist contusion. It’s still possible he could wind up requiring a trip to the injured list in a few days, if the pain and swelling don’t subside. The Twins will most likely have top prospect Brooks Lee on their taxi squad for the next few days, just in case. Rotoworld Today, 3:33 pm

  • Exits after HBP
    Correa was removed from Thursday's game against the Diamondbacks after taking a pitch off his right forearm, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Advice: Correa was visibly in a lot of pain after getting hit by a 94-mph sinker during the seventh inning, and he immediately made his way into the Twins' dugout while holding his right arm. The 29-year-old shortstop will certainly undergo imaging to determine the severity of his injury, and Minnesota should have an update in the near future. Rotowire.com Today, 3:25 pm

  • Carlos Correa (arm) exits game after hit by pitch
    Carlos Correa left Thursday’s game against the Diamondbacks after being hit by a pitch on the right forearm.

    Advice: This one didn’t look good at all. Correa took a 94-mph fastball off his right forearm during the seventh inning of Thursday’s blowout in Arizona. He immediately left the contest shaking his head and holding that arm in a great deal of pain. The 29-year-old shortstop will head for additional evaluation and X-rays to determine the extent of the damage. Any sort of extended absence would likely result in top prospect Brooks Lee getting the call to the majors. Rotoworld Today, 3:05 pm
