    • 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 Today, 6:25 pm

    • Slump continues
      Carroll batted seventh and went 0-for-4 in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Mariners.

      Advice: Carroll, who was dropped in the order Wednesday following a day off amid a slump, has hit seventh or eighth over the last four contests. It hasn't helped awake the bat. Carroll is 0-for-13 in those four games and is 1-for-25 with 11 strikeouts over the last seven. He's sitting at .189/.295/.236 with just five RBI over 27 games. Rotowire.com Today, 5:49 pm
       
    • Rests against lefty
      Julien is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Julien will retreat to the bench with southpaw Reid Detmers on the hill for the Angels. Kyle Farmer will step in for Julien at second base. Rotowire.com Today, 11:22 am
       
    • Returns to lineup Sunday
      Cruz (ankle) is starting at shortstop and batting third Sunday against the Giants, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

      Advice: Cruz was held out of the lineup Saturday after he tweaked his ankle in Friday's series opener, but he's back in the starting nine Sunday. The 25-year-old is without a home run since April 13 and has a .205/.286/.250 slash line and 38.8 percent strikeout rate during that 13-game stretch. Rotowire.com Today, 10:53 am
       
    • On bench again Sunday
      Melendez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

      Advice: After he surprisingly found himself on the bench Saturday against right-hander Casey Mize, the lefty-hitting Melendez's absence from the lineup Sunday is more expected with ace southpaw Tarik Skubal starting for Detroit. Melendez still looks to have a hold on a strong-side platoon role in the Kansas City outfield, though his grip on a regular job may be loosening in the wake of his poor start to the season. He enters Sunday's contest slashing .198/.278/.407 on the campaign through 90 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 8:28 am
       
    • Adds another steal
      Ramirez went 1-for-4 with one RBI, a walk, a stolen base and one run scored in Saturday's 4-2 extra-innings win over Atlanta.

      Advice: Ramirez didn't run much early in the campaign, but he's gotten back to it with all four of his steals this year coming over the last eight games. He's gone 9-for-32 (.281) in that span while adding nine RBI and four extra-base hits. Overall, the star third baseman is doing fine with a .259/.276/.455 slash line, five home runs, 24 RBI and 19 runs scored over 116 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 12:05 am
       
    • Clubs third homer
      Rutschman went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 7-0 win over the Athletics.

      Advice: Rutschman is on fire with an eight-game hitting streak, going 15-for-36 (.417) in that span with two homers, nine RBI and four runs scored. The catcher's surge has him up to a .324/.368/.438 slash line with three homers, 16 RBI, 16 runs scored and three doubles through 25 games. Rutschman's power numbers are more or less in line with his first two seasons and he's making more contact, but he's also posted a 6.1 percent walk rate so far. He's locked in as the Orioles' No. 2 hitter. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:06 pm
       
    • Oneil Cruz sits with injured ankle on Saturday
      Oneil Cruz was held out of the Pirates’ starting lineup on Saturday due to an injured ankle.

      Advice: The dynamic 25-year-old shortstop tweaked his ankle during Friday night’s game against the Giants and was given a night off on Saturday to rest it. For the time being, he’s considered day-to-day. Alika Williams will start in his place at shortstop and will bat ninth against Jordan Hicks and the Giants on Saturday evening in San Francisco.

    • Adley Rutchman goes yard in win over A’s
      Adley Rutchman went 1-for-4 with a solo homer against the Athletics on Saturday.

      Advice: Incredibly, Rutchman has had only five games this season in which he did not record a hit. He extended his current streak to eight games with a solo homer in the fifth inning off of JP Sears. The 26-year-old star catcher is batting .324/.368/.438 with three homers, 16 runs scored, and 16 RBI across 114 plate appearances. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:27 pm
