    • Nolan Jones likely headed to IL with back injury
      Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette reports that Nolan Jones (back) is likely headed to the injured list.

      Advice: Jones was removed from Sunday’s game with stiffness in his back. The 25-year-old will be replaced on the roster by prospect Jordan Beck, with the transaction likely announced Tuesday. Jones has been a disappointment this year, and now he’ll miss at least a week while recovering from the back ailment. Rotoworld 36 minutes ago

    • Likely headed to IL
      The Rockies are expected to place Jones (back) on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette reports.

      Advice: Zahlmann notes that outfield prospect Jordan Beck is on track to receive a call-up from Triple-A Albuquerque, and given that he suffered a setback with his lingering back injury in Sunday's 8-2 loss to the Astros, Jones is an obvious candidate to come off the 26-man active roster in a corresponding move. Jones has been removed from games twice within the past week due to back stiffness, so it makes sense for the Rockies to get out in front of the issue and put him on the shelf for at least the next week and a half so he can rest up and recover. After a breakout 20-20 campaign with the Rockies in 2023, Jones has struggled mightily over the first month of the 2024 season, slashing just .170/.243/.277 while contributing one home run and two stolen bases over 103 plate appearances.

    • Early exit Sunday
      Jones was forced to exit Sunday's game against the Rockies in the seventh inning due to back stiffness, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Jones has battled back stiffness since Tuesday and was forced to miss two games with the issue. After managing to play the entirety of Saturday's contest, Jones was back in the starting lineup Sunday but was forced to exit early after going 1-for-2 with a double and a run scored. The team has not yet decided whether Jones will require a stint on the injured list, but manager Bud Black did say that he is concerned that the issue is recurring. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:50 pm

    • Nolan Jones leaves game with stiff back on Sunday
      Nolan Jones was removed from Sunday’s game against the Astros due to stiffness in his back.

      Advice: The 25-year-old outfielder has been battling the back issue for a while now and is very frustrated with his latest flareup on Sunday. Rockies’ skipper Bud Black told reporters on Sunday that they’ll determine over the next couple of days whether or not he’ll require a trip to the injured list. Fantasy managers who are relying on Jones for next week should be sure to have an alternative option in place. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:25 pm

    • Back on bench Sunday
      Ruiz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

      Advice: Ruiz had started in each of the Athletics' last three games and five of the previous six contests, but he'll head to the bench Sunday. With Brent Rooker recently returning from the injured list and with Seth Brown, JJ Bleday and Lawrence Butler seemingly representing greater priorities in the outfield, Ruiz may be the odd man out for a regular spot in the lineup versus right-handed pitching.

    • Idle against lefty
      Frelick isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Saturday's game against the Yankees.

      Advice: The left-handed bat of Frelick will step out of the lineup Saturday as the Brewers prepare to face lefty Carlos Rodon. Joey Wiemer will fill in as Milwaukee's left fielder and bat ninth. Rotowire.com Saturday, 2:29 pm

    • Back in lineup
      Jones (back) is starting in left field Saturday against the Astros.

      Advice: Back stiffness caused Jones to exit Tuesday's game early and has kept him sidelined for the Rockies' last two games. Now seemingly healthy, the 25-year-old will look to turn things around at the dish after starting the year with a .469 OPS through 96 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:22 am

    • Nolan Jones in lineup for Mexico City opener
      Nolan Jones (back) has returned to the lineup for Saturday’s Mexico City series opener against the Astros.

      Advice: Jones is back in left field and batting seventh for Saturday’s showdown in Mexico City’s high-octane offensive environment after sitting out a pair of contests earlier this week due to back stiffness. The 25-year-old outfielder has struggled at the outset of the year, but showed he can be an impact five-category fantasy contributor during last year’s breakout campaign. It’s too early to consider cutting bait, despite his ongoing struggles at the dish. Rotoworld Saturday, 11:09 am

    • Nolan Jones sits out Thursday with back issue
      Nolan Jones (back) remained out of the lineup for Thursday’s series finale against the Padres.

      Advice: It seems like Jones will be ready to return for this weekend’s highly-anticipated series against the Astros in Mexico City after sitting out a pair of contests against the Padres following an early exit from Tuesday’s game due to back stiffness. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. There should be some clarity on his status at some point later this week. Rotoworld Thursday, 4:12 pm
