  • Acquired by Yankees
    The Yankees acquired J.D. Davis and cash considerations from the Athletics in exchange for Jordan Groshans.

    Advice: After seeing his playing time steadily decrease, Davis was DFA'd by the Athletics on June 17. With the trade Sunday, it marks the third organization Davis has been on this season after he was released by the Giants in March. He appeared in 39 games for the Athletics before being designated for assignment, slashing .236/.304/.366 with four home runs and five RBI over 135 plate appearances. To make room for Davis on the 40-man roster, right-hander Nick Burdi (hip) was transferred to the 60-day injured list. Rotowire.com 26 minutes ago

  • Not starting Sunday
    Hoskins isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Sunday's game versus San Diego.

    Advice: Hoskins has tallied a base hit in each of his last five games, and he'll now get a day to rest versus Michael King and the Padres. Tyler Black will fill in as Milwaukee's first baseman and bat second. Rotowire.com 29 minutes ago
     
  • Idle again Sunday
    Singleton is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Orioles.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Singleton will sit for the second straight game Sunday despite right-hander Albert Suarez taking the mound for Baltimore. With Singleton in the dugout, Yainer Diaz will serve as the designated hitter, Yordan Alvarez will start in left field and Mauricio Dubon will shift to first base. Rotowire.com 50 minutes ago
     
  • Yankees acquire J.D. Davis from A’s in trade
    Yankees acquired INF J.D. Davis from the Athletics for INF Jordan Groshans and cash considerations.

    Advice: Davis provides New York with some additional experienced infield depth moving forward after being designated for assignment earlier this week by Oakland. The 31-year-old corner infielder holds a pedestrian 670 OPS with four homers and five RBI in 135 plate appearances in 39 games this season. He figures to get some time at third base or designated hitter against left-handed pitching while Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) is on the shelf. Rotoworld 51 minutes ago

  • Keeps rolling Saturday
    Soderstrom went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a loss to the Twins on Saturday.

    Advice: Soderstrom squared up on a Bailey Ober offering in the second and sent it 419 feet to center for the Athletics' second and final run of the afternoon. The rookie has slugged five of his first six big-league homers in the last 12 games, a stretch where he's boasting a stellar 1.117 OPS and has averaged exactly one RBI per contest.

  • Big day in rout
    Harper went 4-for-5 with a home run, two runs scored and three RBI in Saturday's 12-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: The 31-year-old superstar launched back-to-back homers with Alec Bohm in the third inning, accounting for half of the Phillies' long balls in the contest. Harper is having one of his patented hot streaks -- he's hit safely in 12 of the last 13 games, slashing .404/.475/.731 over that stretch with five doubles, four homers, seven RBI and 12 runs, chipping in a steal for good measure.

  • Swipes rare bag
    Lowe went 0-for-2 with two walks, a run scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Royals.

    Advice: The first baseman remains stuck in a 32-game power drought -- he launched his last home run May 14 -- but Lowe found a way to contribute. The steal was his second of the season, and while he did pilfer a career-high eight bags in 2021, he's managed only five stolen bases in 373 games since then. Lowe is slashing .214/.294/.262 during his homerless streak with just five doubles, nine RBI and nine runs. Rotowire.com Today, 5:29 am
