  • Swipes fourth bag
    Lee went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base Friday against the Brewers.

    Advice: Lee extended his hitting streak to a modest four games, though he now has both a home run and a steal in that span. He's maintained a solid .273 average and .728 OPS across 127 plate appearances for the season. While he continues to split time with Martin Maldonado behind the plate, Lee has notably started the last two games at DH, giving him starts in 10 of the team's last 13 games.

  • Breather Saturday
    Wong is not in the starting lineup Saturday versus the Tigers, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

    Advice: Wong will take a seat after going 2-for-6 with a double and a run scored over the first two games of the series with Detroit. Reese McGuire will draw the start behind the plate and bat seventh against the Tigers. Rotowire.com Today, 8:39 am
     
  • Recalled to majors
    The Marlins recalled Pereda from Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

    Advice: Pereda has slashed .275/.398/.406 across 83 plate appearances in the minors this season, and he will now come up from Triple-A to give the Marlins additional depth behind the plate while Christian Bethancourt (bereavement) is out. Pereda went 0-for-5 in three games during his first stint in the majors in April. Rotowire.com Today, 8:29 am
     
  • MJ Melendez goes 0-for-4 in loss to Padres
    MJ Melendez finished 0-for-4 while his teammates were combining to score eight runs Friday against the Padres.

    Advice: Melendez will likely turn this around if the Royals stick with him long enough, but at this point, sending him down for 2-3 weeks would make sense. He’s sitting at .172/.233/.337 for the season. Drew Waters wouldn’t necessarily be a better bet, but at least he’d improve the defense in left if given a shot. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:00 pm
     
  • Outrighted to Triple-A
    Reetz was outrighted to Triple-A Sacramento on Friday after clearing waivers.

    Advice: Reetz has struggled in the majors this season, going 1-for-12 while striking out four times across five appearances. He'll remain with the Giants organization and look to find his swing again in the minors. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:57 pm
     
  • Giants send Jakson Reetz outright to Triple-A
    Giants sent C Jakson Reetz outright to Triple-A Sacramento.

    Advice: As anticipated, the 28-year-old backstop passed through waivers unclaimed and will continue to serve as extra catching depth for the Giants at the Triple-A level. Reetz went just 1-for-12 (.083) with a solo homer and four strikeouts during his time with the big league club. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:40 pm
     
  • Out against lefty
    Naylor is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Nationals, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: With Washington sending southpaw Patrick Corbin to the mound for the series opener, the lefty-hitting Naylor will get a break. David Fry will fill in at catcher and bat fifth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:40 am
     
  • Mets designate Omar Narváez for assignment
    Mets designated C Omar Narváez for assignment.

    Advice: Narváez’s days on the Mets roster were likely numbered already with Francisco Alvarez on a rehab assignment. Instead the Mets are swapping him out for the newly acquired Luis Torrens. He batted just .154 in 28 games this season for the Mets. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:00 am
     
  • Designated for assignment
    The Mets designated Narvaez for assignment on Friday, Andy Martino of SNY.tv reports.

    Advice: Narvaez's two years in New York have been a disaster, as he posted a .580 OPS over 49 games in 2023 and has a .154/.191/.185 slash line in 28 games this year. Even with Francisco Alvarez (thumb) not yet back from the injured list, the Mets will look elsewhere for catching depth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:51 am
