    • Out of Sunday's lineup
      Loperfido is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Loperfido started six straight games before taking a seat for Saturday's contest, and he finds himself on the bench again Sunday. He collected three hits in his first game back from the injured list June 21 but has gone 1-for-15 in the ensuing five contests. Mauricio Dubon will take over in left field as Jon Singleton receives a start at first base. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:57 am
       
    • Garrett Mitchell not likely to join Brewers Sunday
      Brewers’ manager Pat Murphy said after Saturday’s loss to the Cubs that he didn’t expect Garrett Mitchell to join the big league roster on Sunday.

      Advice: It’s curious, as Murphy told reporters after Friday’s game that there was no plan to option Mitchell to Triple-A Nashville once his rehab assignment came to an end on Saturday. Something has to give. It sounds like the 25-year-old outfielder is going to remain at the Triple-A level for the time being instead of adding to an already crowded outfield mix in Milwaukee.

    • Back in action Saturday
      Winker (knee) is starting in left field and batting third Saturday against the Rays.

      Advice: Winker was battling knee problems after getting his foot caught in the outfield grass during the first inning of Friday's game, but he appears to be in good enough shape to play Saturday. The 30-year-old has slashed .260/.377/.412 through 302 plate appearances this season, though he may see limited work in the outfield after top prospect James Wood officially joins the Nationals for his MLB debut Monday.

    • Resumes taking swings
      Bryant (oblique) took swings in the batting cage prior to Friday's game, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Bryant has rib and oblique injuries and has been sidelined since June 3. He took positive steps Friday, but he remains without a timeline to return to the field. Rotowire.com Saturday, 10:53 am

    • Sitting again Saturday
      Butler is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Even with Arizona sending right-hander Zac Gallen to the mound Saturday, the lefty-hitting Butler will begin the game in the dugout. Daz Cameron will start in right field and bat fifth. Rotowire.com Saturday, 10:47 am
       
    • Jesse Winker in Saturday’s lineup against Rays
      Jesse Winker (knee) is in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Rays.

      Advice: Winker is back in left field and batting third for Saturday’s showdown after suffering a right knee contusion during the bottom of the first inning of Friday’s game when he attempted to catch a fly ball near the left-field wall. His right cleat got caught in the turf, causing him to stumble and fall into the wall, which led to his exit from the contest. He’s apparently feeling well enough to get back in the lineup, which is a relief for the Nationals, and fantasy managers as well. Rotoworld Saturday, 10:37 am

    • Joey Loperfido on the bench Saturday vs. Mets
      Joey Loperfido is not in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Mets.

      Advice: Loperfido sits for the first time in seven contests since returning last week from Triple-A Sugar Land. The 25-year-old slugging prospect has just four hits in 19 at-bats during that stretch. Rotoworld Saturday, 10:34 am
       
    • Sitting Saturday
      Loperfido is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets.

      Advice: Loperfido has started in each of the Astros' last six games, going 4-for-19 with two doubles and two RBI while striking out seven times. Yordan Alvarez will shift to left field against Mets right-hander Tylor Megill, as Yainer Diaz serves as the designated hitter and Cesar Salazar starts behind the plate.

    • Sitting vs. lefty
      Varsho is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Yankees.

      Advice: With the Yankees sending left-hander Nestor Cortes to the mound Saturday, Varsho will retreat to the bench. Varsho returned to the starting lineup Thursday after sitting the three games prior due to a back injury, and he's gone 0-for-8 with five strikeouts over his last two starts. Kevin Kiermaier will start in center field Saturday and bat ninth. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:38 am
