  • On bench versus lefty
    Lux isn't in the Dodgers' lineup Tuesday versus the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: For the first time this season, Lux will begin the game on the bench for a second consecutive game. This is due to Arizona starting a southpaw for two straight games with Jordan Montgomery on the mound Tuesday. Miguel Rojas will start at second base and bat eighth. Rotowire.com 54 minutes ago

  • Optioned to Triple-A
    The Brewers optioned Miller to Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

    Advice: Miller has appeared in seven games for the Brewers this season, tallying just one hit in 12 at-bats while striking out five times. He'll be forced back to the minors following the addition of Tyler Black to the big-league squad, though Miller could return to Milwaukee if the Brewers need to call on their organizational infield depth.

  • Upping baseball activities
    Edwards (foot) has increased his baseball activities this week, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

  • Not in Tuesday's lineup
    Alexander is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Dodgers.

  • Activated from injured list
    The Tigers activated Ibanez (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

    Advice: Ibanez wound up missing a little more than three weeks of action with a strained left hamstring. The utility player should see some starts for the Tigers against left-handed pitching. Rotowire.com Today, 10:45 am

  • Bats leadoff Monday
    Alexander batted leadoff and went 0-for-1 with three walks and two runs scored in Monday's 8-4 loss to the Dodgers.

    Advice: Alexander served as the leadoff batter for the first time, as manager Torey Lovullo recently tweaked the top of the order. Primary leadoff batter Ketel Marte has been moved to third in the order. Alexander has been adept at getting on base, posting a .406 OBP over 69 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 4:11 am
     
  • Clubs pair of homers
    Turner went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and a solo home run during Monday's 6-5 win over the Royals.

    Advice: Turner dominated Royals starter Jonathan Bowlan -- who was making his second career start -- notching home runs off him in the first and third innings. The contest doubled Turner's 2024 home run total and was his first multi-homer game since June of 2023. Through 28 games, Turner is slashing .311/.390/.533 with 15 RBI and 15 runs scored.
