    • Anthony Rendon to face live pitching next week
      Angels’ manager Ron Washington told reporters on Friday that Anthony Rendon will face live pitching late next week.

      Advice: The 34-year-old third baseman is nearing the end of his recovery from a torn left hamstring and is closing in on a return to the Angels’ lineup. Prior to landing on the injured list in April, Rendon had been hitting .267/.325/.307 with zero homers, three RBI and three stolen bases through his first 83 plate appearances on the season.

    • Not starting Friday
      Malloy is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Angels.

      Advice: Malloy will begin Friday's contest in the dugout after going 0-for-3 with one strikeout in Thursday's 5-0 loss. Over his last 10 games, he's gone just 2-for-25 with a 40.7 percent strikeout rate. Colt Keith will serve as the designated hitter Friday while Andy Ibanez starts at second base against Angels right-hander Zach Plesac. Rotowire.com Today, 3:32 pm
       
    • Jeimer Candelario (knee) expected to return Sunday
      Reds’ manager David Bell told reporters on Friday that Jeimer Candelario (knee) is expected to return to the starting lineup on Sunday.

      Advice: Candelario has missed each of the team’s last three games due to a knee issue and he’ll sit on Saturday as well. The team doesn’t want him to miss a full 10 days though and they’re very hopeful that he’ll be able to return to action on Sunday. Fantasy mangers may still want to sit him through the weekend though to be on the safe side if alternative options are available. Rotoworld Today, 3:24 pm
       
    • Swing test pushed back
      Jung (wrist) will have his swing test pushed back to Saturday, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

      Advice: Jung was slated to swing a bat Friday, but he'll have that evaluation pushed back a day. He has been on the injured list since April 2 with a fractured right wrist, and his rehab program with Triple-A Round Rock was shut down due to tendon inflammation. Jung could be activated off the injured list soon if his swing test Saturday goes well, though he'll likely be eased back into the action with planned off days if he does return.

    • Sitting Friday
      Nevin is not in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Nevin will begin Friday's contest in the dugout after going 1-for-7 with three walks, one home run and two RBI over the recent three-game series against the Angels. Armando Alvarez will start at third base and bat seventh against Diamondbacks right-hander Slade Cecconi. Rotowire.com Today, 3:08 pm

    • Aiming for Sunday return
      Candelario (hamstring) is on track to play Sunday against the Cardinals, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Candelario hasn't played since Tuesday as he tends to hamstring tendinitis. However, he's set to make his return for the series finale Sunday and will avoid a stint on the IL. In his stead, Noelvi Marte should continue to start at third base while Spencer Steer handles first base work. Rotowire.com Today, 2:50 pm
       
    • Not in lineup Friday
      Ortiz (neck) is not in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against the Cubs.

      Advice: Ortiz has been dealing with a neck injury since last week's series against the Angels, and he was removed in the sixth inning of Wednesday's game against the Rangers after going 0-for-2. Despite having the day off Thursday, Ortiz will be in the dugout for at least the series opener. Andruw Monasterio will start at third base Friday and bat ninth against Cubs right-hander Jameson Taillon. Rotowire.com Today, 2:37 pm

    • Tyler Black riding the pine again on Friday night
      Tyler Black is once again riding the pine for Friday night’s matchup against the Cubs in Milwaukee.

      Advice: It’s the fourth consecutive game that the 23-year-old has found himself on the Brewers’ bench for, and with a southpaw on tap for Saturday, you can bet that his streak will extend to five straight games. Unfortunately, it’s looking like the Brewers aren’t going to give him a shot at everyday at-bats. Andruw Monasterio will draw a start at third base and will bat ninth for the Brewers on Friday night against Jameson Taillon and the Cubs. Rotoworld Today, 2:30 pm
