    • Returns to lineup Tuesday
      Nootbaar (hamstring) will start in right field and bat second in Tuesday's game in Cincinnati.

      Advice: Nootbaar missed two starts after tweaking his hamstring in Saturday's game against the Cubs, but he worked out prior to Monday's contest and is ready to roll Tuesday. The 26-year-old has a 1.096 OPS with two homers over his last eight games. Rotowire.com 3 minutes ago
       
    • DFA'd by Oakland
      The Athletics designated Nevin for assignment on Tuesday.

      Advice: Nevin had a strong start to his campaign for the Athletics with an .875 OPS through his first 25 games, but a 1-for-43 slump will end up costing him his place on the 26-man active roster and 40-man roster. Aledmys Diaz (calf) was reinstated from the 60-day injured list in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com 18 minutes ago

    • Activated from IL
      Diaz (calf) was reinstated from the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

      Advice: Diaz has missed the first two months of the 2024 campaign with a strained right calf he sustained in early March. He appeared in 10 games at Triple-A during his rehab assignment and slashed .154/.313/.308 with six walks and five strikeouts in 32 plate appearances. He figures to compete with Max Schuemann and Abraham Toro for work at shortstop and third base. Rotowire.com 20 minutes ago

    • Tyler Nevin removed from 40-man roster by A’s
      Athletics designated INF Tyler Nevin for assignment.

      Advice: Nevin hit .220 with four homers and a .649 OPS while he was with Oakland. He now hits the waiver wire, and if he goes unclaimed he’ll likely report back to Triple-A Las Vegas. Rotoworld 23 minutes ago

    • Athletics reinstate Aledmys Díaz off 60-day IL
      Athletics reinstated INF Aledmys Díaz off the 60-day injured list.

      Advice: Díaz will have a chance to play after missing the first two months of the season with a calf strain. The 33-year-old returns for Oakland, and Tyler Nevin was designated for assignment to make room for him on the active and 40-man roster. Rotoworld 24 minutes ago

    • Takes part in light running Monday
      Nootbaar (hamstring) hit in the batting cage and did some light running prior to Monday's game against the Reds, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Nootbaar tweaked his hamstring while legging out a triple in Saturday's game against the Cubs and has since sat out the last two games. The outfielder told Denton that he should be ready to return to the lineup whenever the Cardinals give him the green light. The Cardinals are slated to face a left-hander starter Tuesday and have an off day Thursday, factors which could weigh into their decision as to when to reinsert Nootbaar into the lineup.

    • Chris Taylor playing third base against Mets
      Chris Taylor is starting at third base and hitting seventh for the first game of a doubleheader against the Mets on Tuesday.

      Advice: Taylor is starting at the hot corner for the first time in 2024. The 33-year-old veteran has been atrocious so far in 2024 with a .101 average and .338 OPS over the first third of the campaign. Enrique Hernandez takes a seat for the first game of the twin-billing.

    • On bench for matinee
      Bader is out of the lineup for Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Dodgers, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: The 29-year-old has a .281/.361/.391 slash line through 21 games in May and will sit for the first game of Tuesday's twin bill. Tyrone Taylor will instead start in center field, though Bader will likely rejoin the lineup for Game 2. Rotowire.com Today, 9:46 am

    • Gaining playing time at shortstop
      Wisely went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Monday's 8-4 win over the Phillies.

      Advice: After being called up from Triple-A Sacramento on May 11, Wisely started in just one of the ensuing 10 games, but the 25-year-old since appears to have moved into the strong side of a platoon at shortstop with Marco Luciano. Wisely has started in each of the last three games and in three of the Giants' previous four matchups with right-handed starting pitchers, going a collective 9-for-15 with a home run, a double, a stolen base, five RBI and three runs during that stretch. So long as he's swinging a hot bat, Wisely should continue to play ahead of Luciano until Nick Ahmed (wrist) is reinstated from the injured list. Rotowire.com Today, 8:31 am
