  • Yet to get on track
    Suwinski went 1-for-4 with a double, a walk, an RBI and a run scored Thursday against the Brewers.

    Advice: Suwinski delivered an RBI double to tie the game in the fifth inning and came around to score in the same frame to give the Pirates the lead. It was his second consecutive start with a double, but he had only five hits in 24 at-bats across a seven-game homestand. Suwinski has cut his strikeout rate to 17.2 percent -- down from 32.2 percent in 2023 -- but that has yet to lead to positive results as he's hitting .183 with two home runs across 93 plate appearances for the season.

  • Return not imminent
    Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Thursday that Gonzalez (wrist) isn't progressing as hoped and isn't considered close to a return from the 10-day injured list, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

    Advice: Gonzalez was placed on the IL on April 13 with a left wrist sprain, and after an MRI administered a few days later revealed no structural damage, the expectation was that the infielder would be ready rejoin the Red Sox after a minimum-length stay on the shelf. However, with Gonzalez still experiencing stiffness in his wrist and having yet to resume baseball activities, he looks poised to remain out until at least May. Rotowire.com 22 minutes ago

  • Sitting again Friday
    Renfroe is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Tigers.

    Advice: Renfoe isn't starting for the second straight game and for the third time in Kansas City's past four contests. The 32-year-old has a .149/.208/.284 slash line in 72 plate appearances and appears to be losing his grip on an everyday role Adam Frazier will receive a start in right field Friday.

  • Slugs first homer
    Montero went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk Thursday against the Padres.

    Advice: Montero went 6-for-22 across a six-game homestand, though all but one of those hits was a single. His lone extra-base knock came Thursday, which also marked the first home run of his season. Montero is hitting only .233 through 82 plate appearances, but he has cut his strikeout rate to just 14.6 percent and has started 13 of the last 14 games. Rotowire.com 47 minutes ago
     
  • Heads out on rehab assignment
    DeLuca (hand) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham on Thursday, going 0-for-4 with an RBI while playing nine innings in right field in a 14-2 loss to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

    Advice: The 25-year-old outfielder played in his first game since he fractured his right hand in a spring training contest March 10. He'll presumably require a handful of additional rehab games before he'll be ready to return from the 10-day injured list to make his Rays debut. Rotowire.com 50 minutes ago
     
  • Blasts three-run shot
    Bart went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer and two runs scored in Thursday's loss to the Brewers while also drawing a walk.

    Advice: Bart put the Pirates ahead with a three-run shot in the bottom of the first, giving the catcher his third home run in just seven games this season. He also drew a two-out walk in the fifth before coming around to score the tying run on a Jack Suwinski double, marking Bart's first game this season with two runs scored. Furthermore, the backstop has now hit safely in six of his seven games and continues to make a strong case for more playing time with Yasmani Grandal (foot) sitting on the 10-day injured list.

  • Braves activate Ozzie Albies from 10-day IL
    Braves activated 2B Ozzie Albies (toe) from the 10-day injured list.

    Advice: Albies returns to the active roster following a stay on the injured list with a fractured right toe. It’s amazing that the 27-year-old needed just the minimum 10 days on the injured list before making his return with the injury he had. On top of that, he was doing fielding drills this past weekend to get ramped up for live action. He’ll be a boost for the Braves’ offense and for fantasy managers as he’s on pace for a career season with a .317/.386/.492 batting line in his first 15 games. Rotoworld Today, 6:37 am
     
  • Activated from injured list
    Atlanta activated Albies (toe) from the 10-day injured list Friday.

    Advice: Albies missed just the minimum 10 days with a fractured right big toe and will not require a rehab assignment before rejoining his teammates for the weekend series against the Guardians. The 27-year-old has put together a .317/.386/.492 batting line with two home runs and two stolen bases through his first 15 contests this season. Rotowire.com Today, 6:15 am
     
  • Swipes first bag
    Vaught went 2-for-5 with a double, a stolen base and a run scored in Thursday's loss to the Twins.

    Advice: Vaughn singled in his first trip to the plate before also stealing his first base of the season, but was left stranded. He added a double in his next at-bat, then came around to score on a Paul DeJong single to put Chicago up 2-0, marking the first baseman's only multi-hit performance since April 9 against the Guardians. Vaughn is still batting just .167 following the two-hit effort, though he has hit safely in three of his last four games. Rotowire.com Today, 4:37 am
