    • Pirates recall Alika Williams on Saturday
      Pirates recalled INF Alika Williams from Triple-A Indianapolis.

      Advice: Williams gets the call back to Pittsburgh with Ke’Bryan Hayes landing on the injured list with back inflammation. The 25-year-old infielder doesn’t offer any appeal for fantasy managers moving forward as he holds a .549 OPS with zero homers and one steal in 61 contests in the majors over the last two seasons.

    • Gets breather Saturday
      Stanton is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

      Advice: Stanton went 2-for-4 in the series opener Friday. Trent Grisham will start in center field Friday while Aaron Judge shifts to DH against Rays right-hander Zack Littell. Rotowire.com 9 minutes ago
       
    • Ke’Bryan Hayes to IL with back inflammation
      Pirates placed 3B Ke’Bryan Hayes on the 10-day injured list with back inflammation.

      Advice: So much for it being a non-issue. Clearly, the Pirates don’t want to take any chances here after Hayes missed a couple contests earlier this week with a lingering back issue. The 27-year-old will likely wind up missing at least a couple weeks to ensure that it doesn’t become a recurring issue. Rotoworld 10 minutes ago
       
    • Sitting against another righty
      Senzel is not in Saturday's lineup against the Red Sox.

      Advice: He will sit for a second day in a row with the Nationals facing a righty, and on both occasions Victor Robles picked up the start in the outfield with Jesse Winker sliding to designated hitter. Senzel is hitting .214 with a 42.4 percent strikeout rate in 28 at-bats this month. Rotowire.com 11 minutes ago

    • Kodai Senga (shoulder) remains in holding pattern
      Mets manager Carlos Mendoza told reporters Saturday that Kodai Senga (shoulder) will need a few more bullpen sessions before progressing to facing hitters.

      Advice: Mendoza added that Senga remains in the process of tweaking his throwing mechanics, which is the reason he hasn’t faced hitters yet. It’s unclear whether this latest development will push back his season debut, but it’s a notable wrinkle as he continues his rehabilitation process. Rotoworld 12 minutes ago

    • Sitting Saturday as expected
      Schwarber (back) will sit for Saturday's game against the Marlins, as expected.

      Advice: He left Friday's game in the ninth inning with a sore back and told reporters he'd probably take Saturday off, which is indeed the case. Cristian Pache draws the start in left field with Whit Merrifield starting at third base and Alec Bohm getting the nod at designated hitter. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago
       
    • Kyle Schwarber (back) not in Saturday’s lineup
      Kyle Schwarber (back) is absent from the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Marlins.

      Advice: As expected, Schwarber will take a seat during Saturday’s showdown against the Marlins with lefty Jesús Luzardo toeing the rubber, following an early exit from Friday’s contest due to back soreness. The 31-year-old slugger might be ready to return later this weekend, but isn’t expected to require a lengthy absence. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now.

    • Garrett Whitlock to make rehab start Wednesday
      Garrett Whitlock (oblique) will make a minor league rehab start on Wednesday for Triple-A Worcester.

      Advice: Whitlock landed on the injured list back in mid-April with a left oblique issue and should be ready to return to Boston’s starting rotation mix prior to the end of May. Rotoworld 20 minutes ago
       
    • Scratched with back tightness
      Anderson was scratched from Saturday's lineup against the Phillies with lower-back tightness, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.

      Advice: Vidal Brujan will shift to shortstop while Otto Lopez enters the lineup at second base. Rotowire.com 21 minutes ago
