  • Jasson Dominguez (undisclosed) placed on 7-day IL
    Jasson Dominguez was placed on the 7-day IL by Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

    Advice: It’s not known why Dominguez was placed on the injured list at this time. The outfielder did miss the first two months of the season while recovering from Tommy John surgery, and it’s possible there’s a correlation there. Dominguez is one of the best fantasy prospects in baseball, and assuming good health, he has a chance to be a contributor at some point this summer. Stay tuned. Rotoworld 23 minutes ago
     
  • Placed on IL at Triple-A
    Dominguez (undisclosed) was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday, Conor Foley of YES Network reports.

    Advice: It's unclear at this stage what is ailing the 21-year-old. He was just formally activated from the 60-day injured list by the Yankees earlier this week after a long recovery from Tommy John surgery, and subsequently optioned down to Triple-A. Rotowire.com 34 minutes ago
     
  • On bench for matinee
    Gelof is not in the lineup for the first game of Sunday's doubleheader against the Twins.

    Advice: Gelof will get an extended breather of sorts, having also sat out Saturday, but he will likely be back in there to face Chris Paddack in the nightcap. After breaking out to the tune of an .841 OPS, 14 homers and 14 steals in just 69 games last season, Gelof has struggled to a .558 OPS, five homers and seven steals through 52 games in 2024.

  • Sitting Sunday
    Murphy is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.

    Advice: Murphy will rest for the series finale after he started behind the plate Friday and Saturday while going 2-for-7 with a walk and a run scored. Travis d'Arnaud will garner the start at catcher Sunday. Rotowire.com Today, 8:07 am
     
  • Extends hitting streak
    Gonzales went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, two RBI and two runs scored Saturday against Colorado.

    Advice: Gonzales tallied Pittsburgh's first run of the game with a solo home run in the fourth inning, his fifth long ball of the season. That knock also extended his hitting streak to six games, and he's hitting .292 with nine RBI and five runs scored across 12 contests in June. Rotowire.com Today, 7:08 am

  • Belts 11th homer
    Olson went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run in a 9-2 win against Tampa Bay on Saturday.

    Advice: Olson was part of a big fifth inning for Atlanta, swatting the team's third and final homer in the frame. The first baseman extended his hitting streak to nine contests, a stretch during which he is batting .361 (13-for-26) with two home runs and five RBI. Olson's 11 homers are second-most on Atlanta but are well off the pace of the 54 long balls he belted last season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:04 pm
     
  • Nick Gonzales lifts homer in blowout loss to COL
    Nick Gonzales homered and drove home two runs in a loss to the Rockies on Saturday.

    Advice: Gonzales tied the game at 1-1 with a solo homer off Ty Blach in the fourth frame. The former top prospect has been able to pick up five homers in his 117 at-bats, and that roundtripper along with an RBI on a fielder’s choice give him 25 on the year. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:59 pm

  • Earns 12th save
    Estevez struck out two in a perfect ninth inning to earn the save in a 4-3 win over the Giants on Saturday.

    Advice: Called upon in the ninth inning for the second night in a row, Estevez needed just 12 pitches to secure his 12th save of the season. Estevez has not allowed a baserunner in five June appearances and has now converted six consecutive save opportunities dating back to May 20. On the season, Estevez is 12-for-15 in save chances with a 3.68 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 22:3 K:BB in 22 innings. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:04 pm
     
  • Homers twice in win
    Santander went 2-for-2 with two home runs and four RBI in a 6-2 win over the Phillies on Saturday.

    Advice: Santander tied the game on a solo home run in the fourth inning then gave the Orioles the lead on a sacrifice fly in the sixth. He later added a two-run homer in the eighth. Santander continued his June power binge; he's homered eight times in 15 contests this month. On the season, Santander is now slashing .231/.307/.498 with 17 home runs and 42 RBI while hitting in the heart of one of the league's best lineups. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:53 pm
