    • Won't start due to forearm injury
      Wicks will not make Sunday's scheduled start in Boston due to left forearm tightness, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.

      Advice: Wicks is coming off his best start of the season, but it would appear he picked up an arm injury either during that outing or in a between-starts throwing session. A stint on the injured list seems likely, but the Cubs could offer more on a potential timetable Sunday. Hayden Wesneski will start Sunday in Wicks' place. Rotowire.com 14 minutes ago

    • Jesse Winker hits grand slam in victory over MIA
      Jesse Winker hit a grand slam in the Nationals’ 11-4 victory over the Marlins on Saturday.

      Advice: Winker continues his offensive resurgence, and his grand slam in the fifth inning extended Washington’s lead to 6-1. The 30-year-old is now slashing .291/.404/.465 over the first month of the season; a vast improvement on the offensive numbers he was posting with Seattle and Milwaukee over the last two years. It’s a small sample, but there’s no denying what Winker has done is encouraging. Rotoworld Today, 4:22 pm
       
    • D-backs optimistic Zac Gallen makes next start
      Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo expressed optimism late Friday that Zac Gallen (hamstring) will make his next start.

      Advice: Gallen was removed from Friday’s start against the Mariners in the sixth inning for precautionary reasons after experiencing right hamstring tightness. The 28-year-old righty has dealt with similar hamstring issues in the past, which is why Arizona didn’t want to take any chances. There should be some clarity on his status at some point in a few days when he throws his usual between-starts bullpen session, but for the moment, fantasy managers should plan on him taking the ball on Wednesday against the Dodgers at Chase Field.

    • Picks up eighth save
      Finnegan struck out one in a perfect ninth inning Friday to record his eighth save of the season in a 3-1 win over the Marlins.

      Advice: He needed only six pitches, all strikes, to dispatch the middle of Miami's order. Finnegan hasn't allowed an earned run yet in April, converting all seven of his save chances on the month with a 9:4 K:BB through 9.2 innings. Hunter Harvey, who collected his eighth hold Friday with a clean eighth inning, has been more dominant to begin the season and has a 19:2 K:BB through 13 innings. For now, though, Nats manager Dave Martinez is content to let him handle highest-leverage spots while Finnegan takes care of business in the ninth. Rotowire.com Today, 6:53 am
       
    • Homers during win
      Jimenez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk during Friday's win over the Rays.

      Advice: Jimenez's two-run blast gave Chicago a 7-2 lead in the seventh inning, contributing to an offensive showing that has not been typical of the White Sox so far this season. The 27-year-old has now homered twice in four games and is slashing .286/.355/.607 with eight RBI and five runs scored over his last seven contests. Rotowire.com Today, 6:15 am

    • Collects three hits
      Bohm went 3-for-5 with a double, two runs scored and an RBI in Friday's win over San Diego.

      Advice: Bohm doubled and scored in the first inning and later added an RBI single in the fourth. He has multiple hits in five of his last six games, going 15-for-26 (.577) with seven doubles in the process. Bohm has boosted his slash line to a robust .347/.431/.568 with 14 extra-base hits and 22 RBI through 109 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:37 pm

    • Dealing with hamstring spasms
      Manager Torey Lovullo said Friday that Gallen was removed from his start against the Mariners due to spasms in his right hamstring, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: The Diamondbacks will continue to monitor Gallen's condition, but the expectation is that he will be fine and may not even have to miss his next start, which is slated for Wednesday. The right-hander surrendered three earned runs across five-plus innings Friday before exiting in the sixth frame, giving him a 3.38 ERA through his first six starts. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:29 pm

    • Zac Gallen leaves start with hamstring tightness
      Zac Gallen was pulled from Friday evening’s start against the Mariners mid at-bat in the sixth inning due to tightness in his right hamstring.

      Advice: With as bad as it looked initially on the field, it’s actually encouraging that it’s not an elbow, shoulder or oblique issue that the 28-year-old right-hander is dealing with. The severity of the injury still isn’t known, but there’s a possibility that he may not even require a trip to the injured list. A lot will probably depend on how he wakes up feeling on Saturday, but for now fantasy managers and Diamondbacks’ fans can breathe a sigh of relief. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:50 pm

    • Corbin Burnes holds A’s to one run in no-decision
      Corbin Burnes wasn’t involved in the decision after allowing one run over six innings Friday against the Orioles.

      Advice: Burnes outdueled Ross Stripling and left with a one-run lead, but the A’s let Stripling off the hook for once by scoring a run in the ninth and then winning the game in 10. Baltimore had been 5-0 with Burnes on the mound. The right-hander has a 2.55 ERA and a 32/8 K/BB ratio in 35 1/3 innings. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:33 pm
