X-rays on hand negativeX-rays on Altuve's left hand came back negative following his removal from Friday's game versus Minnesota, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.
Advice: Altuve made an early exit from Friday's game in the eighth inning after taking a pitch off his hand, but he managed to escape the incident with only a bruise. It's possible he sits out a game or two in order to give his hand a chance to properly recover, but an extended absence isn't likely. The 34-year-old is slashing .387/.457/.516 with a homer and five RBI over his last seven games. Rotowire.comJose AltuveHOU - 2BL, 2-3 @MIN -
Jose Altuve diagnosed with left hand contusionThe Astros got good news after Friday night’s victory over the Twins as the X-rays on the injured left hand of Jose Altuve came back negative for any fractures.
Advice: Altuve was diagnosed with a left hand contusion and is considered day-to-day. It wouldn’t be surprising to see him get a day off on Saturday to be on the safe side, but the 34-year-old infielder shouldn’t be looking at any sort of extended absence. RotoworldJose AltuveHOU - 2BL, 2-3 @MIN -
Jose Altuve (hand) leaves game after hit by pitchJose Altuve was removed from Friday night’s battle against the Twins after being hit by a pitch on his left hand.
Advice: Altuve was clipped by a 94.3 mph sinker from Josh Winder. The 34-year-old superstar second baseman was grimacing and looked to be in obvious pain on the field. He’ll head for X-rays to see if he’s dealing with any fractures. The Astros should have an update on his status after that imaging is complete. In the meantime, all fantasy managers can do is wait and hope for the best. RotoworldJose AltuveHOU - 2BL, 2-3 @MIN -
Colt Keith’s first multi-homer game powers TigersColt Keith homered twice and drove in three runs on Friday night, powering the Tigers to a 5-4 victory over the Reds in Cincinnati.
Advice: It’s the first multi-homer game of the 22-year-old rookie’s big-league career. Keith obliterated a 413-foot (104.2 mph EV) solo shot off of Carson Spiers in the third inning that extended the Tigers’ lead to 2-0. He furthered that advantage with a 415-foot (108.8 mph EV) two-run bomb in the fifth inning that made it 4-0. Keith has picked up the pace offensively in recent weeks and is now hitting .240/.285/.361 with seven homers and 28 RBI on the season. RotoworldColt KeithDET - 2B,3BW, 5-1 @CIN -
Exits after HBPAltuve was removed from Friday's game against the Twins after getting by a pitch, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Advice: Altuve took a 94 mph sinker off his left hand/wrist during the eighth inning of Friday's contest and was taken out of the game after conferring with a trainer. He'll presumably undergo imaging in the clubhouse, and the Astros should offer an update on his status after the game. Rotowire.comJose AltuveHOU - 2BL, 2-3 @MIN -
Nicky Lopez plates two as White Sox filet MarlinsNicky Lopez went 2-for-3 with a walk, a pair of doubles and two RBI on Friday night, leading the White Sox to a 3-2 victory over the Marlins.
Advice: Lopez opened the scoring in the ballgame in the second inning with a run-scoring double off of Bryan Hoenig that scored Paul DeJong. He then added a ground-rule double in the fifth inning that plated Eloy Jimenez and would have driven in an additional run had the ball not taken an unfortunate bounce into the crowd. With his two-hit attack, the light-hitting second baseman is now hitting .247/.302/.292 with zero homers, 12 RBI and three stolen bases on the season. RotoworldNicky LopezCWS - 2B,3B,SSL, 4-7 @MIA -
Managing groin tightnessTorres exited Friday's game against the Red Sox due to right groin tightness.
Advice: Torres suffered a similar injury to his right groin a few weeks ago, and he seems to have aggravated the issue while legging out an infield single during Friday's contest. The Yankees don't have any plans in place to take him in for imaging at the moment, which suggests the team doesn't believe his latest flareup is anything too severe. However, it remains possible the 27-year-old sits out Saturday's contest as a precaution. Rotowire.comGleyber TorresNYY - 2BL, 0-3 vs BOS -
Gleyber Torres leaves game with groin tightnessGleyber Torres was pulled from Friday’s contest against the Red Sox in the fourth inning due to right groin tightness.
Advice: It’s the same injury that has been bothering Torres for a while now, but the Yankees announced that they don’t believe it’s severe enough to require imaging. If that’s the case, it seems unlikely that he’ll require a trip to the injured list. For now, he should be considered day-to-day, but a lot may depend on how he’s feeling when he wakes up on Saturday. RotoworldGleyber TorresNYY - 2BL, 0-3 vs BOS -
Exits with apparent injuryTorres was removed from Friday's game versus Boston with an apparent leg injury, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.
Advice: Torres came up limping after beating out an infield single in the fourth inning, and he was immediately replaced on first base by Oswaldo Cabrera. Torres missed a few games in June due to a groin issue. The details of his latest injury will come once the Yankees are able to take a closer look at him.
