  • On bench for Game 2
    Merrill is out of the lineup for Game 2 of Monday's doubleheader in Atlanta.

    Advice: Merrill started in center field in Game 1 and went 1-for-4 with two RBI, as he brought home San Diego's first two runs on a groundout and a single. Jose Azocar will take over in center field for the nightcap. Rotowire.com 27 minutes ago

  • Mets release Joey Wendle
    Mets released INF Joey Wendle.

    Advice: Wendle was designated for assignment last week after hitting .222/.243/.250 in 37 plate appearances for the Mets. He’ll probably resurface with another club this summer, though he might have to take a minor league deal initially. Rotoworld 39 minutes ago

  • Jorge Polanco (hamstring) available off bench
    Jorge Polanco, again out of the lineup with his hamstring tightness, will be available off the bench Monday, according to manager Scott Servais.

    Advice: It’s his sixth straight day out of the lineup, which is a lot for “tightness.” Luis Urías continues to fill in for him, with Josh Rojas moving from third to second. Rotoworld 56 minutes ago

  • Available off bench
    Mariners manager Scott Servais said that Polanco (hamstring) will be available off the bench Monday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

    Advice: Polanco is missing a sixth straight start Monday, but he's progressed enough with his right hamstring issue that he could enter mid-game, if needed. It would appear he'll have a shot to be back in the lineup Tuesday. Rotowire.com 56 minutes ago

  • Sam Haggerty ruptures Achilles in Triple-A
    Sam Haggerty is out for the year after suffering a ruptured Achilles in a Triple-A game.

    Advice: Haggerty was hurt Saturday while trying to make a catch in center and planting his foot in the padded wall. The utilityman had been demoted from the majors just three days earlier. He’s a lifetime .232/.312/.351 hitter in parts of six seasons in the majors. Rotoworld Today, 1:56 pm

  • Hitting in batting cage
    Drury (hamstring) will hit in the batting cage Monday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

    Advice: Drury is ready to begin reincorporating baseball activities as he works his way back from a left hamstring strain. Running will certainly be a bigger test than hitting, though, and it's not clear when he might be ready to do that. Rotowire.com Today, 1:52 pm

  • Out with torn Achilles
    Haggerty was diagnosed with a torn Achilles on Monday and will miss the rest of the 2024 season, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports. He was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday.

    Advice: The 29-year-old was optioned to Tacoma last week but suffered the injury over the weekend in just his second game back with the affiliate. Haggerty went 1-for-15 during a brief run in the big leagues this season and will likely be sidelined for the start of the 2025 campaign. Rotowire.com Today, 1:41 pm

  • Sitting out versus lefty
    Turang is not in the lineup for Monday's contest in Miami.

    Advice: The Marlins are rolling with southpaw Ryan Weathers, so the left-handed hitting Turang will take a seat. Andruw Monasterio will occupy second base for the Brewers. Rotowire.com Today, 1:35 pm

  • Will be primary third baseman
    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Monday that LeMahieu (foot) will be the team's primary third baseman when he returns, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

    Advice: LeMahieu will be eased into everyday duty, though, after missing so much time with a right foot injury. The veteran infielder is a couple games into the resumption of his rehab assignment and isn't expected to be activated for at least another week or so. Once LeMahieu returns, Oswaldo Cabrera and Jon Berti will fill utility roles. Rotowire.com Today, 1:30 pm
