  • Out again Wednesday
    Urias is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Guardians.

    Advice: After making three straight starts at third base, Urias will hit the bench for the second game in a row. Jorge Mateo will pick up another start in the infield while Urias takes a seat. Rotowire.com Today, 12:42 pm

  • Picking up fifth straight start
    Solano will start at first base and bat second in Wednesday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: Solano will crack the starting nine for the fifth game in a row. The Padres are facing a left-hander (DJ Herz) for a third straight game, but San Diego could have room for both Solano and the lefty-hitting David Peralta in the regular lineup against right-handed pitching after Fernando Tatis' (quadricep) move to the injured list Monday opened up a spot. Since getting a call-up from Triple-A El Paso in early May, Solano is slashing .284/.354/.405 with three home runs and 15 RBI over 130 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 12:26 pm

  • Getting day off
    Dubon is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

    Advice: Dubon will get the afternoon off after he had started in each of Houston's last 15 games. Though he's served mostly as a utility player during that stretch, Dubon appears to have found a home of late at first base, where he made each of his last three starts. Jon Singleton will step in for Dubon on Wednesday. Rotowire.com Today, 10:44 am

  • Held out again Wednesday
    Drury (illness) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Athletics.

    Advice: Drury hasn't played in more than a week due to an upper-respiratory virus. The Angels have resisted placing him on the 10-day injured list thus far, and the team hasn't provided an indication that it has changed its stance, so consider Drury day-to-day. Luis Rengifo will cover second base Wednesday in Drury's stead. Rotowire.com Today, 10:39 am

  • Tyler Black on bench for third straight day
    Tyler Black is on the bench for a third straight game Wednesday against the Rangers.

    Advice: It was expected that Black would sit versus a lefty last night, but two of these three games have been against righties, and the Brewers picked Jake Bauers over him today. Black is 3-for-11 with three walks since being recalled Thursday. Rotoworld Today, 10:34 am

  • Out of lineup again Wednesday
    Black is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Rangers.

    Advice: After starting each of the first four games upon being called up from Triple-A Nashville last Wednesday, Black has now been out of the lineup for three straight contests, with two of them coming against right-handed pitching. Jake Bauers will garner a second straight start at first base. Rotowire.com Today, 10:17 am

  • Tommy Edman (wrist) shut down with ankle sprain
    Tommy Edman, who is working his way back from wrist surgery, suffered a sprained ankle while taking grounders on Tuesday.

    Advice: It sounds like this could be a real setback for Edman, but we’ll know more later. Edman appeared to be getting fairly close to beginning a minor league rehab assignment. Rotoworld Today, 9:30 am

  • Sprains ankle in workout
    Edman (wrist) sprained his ankle while fielding grounders Tuesday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

    Advice: The injury isn't viewed as a major setback, but it's not ideal after Edman had finally been making some real progress in his recovery from right wrist surgery. The Cardinals had been hopeful that Edman would be ready for a rehab assignment soon, and while that still could be the case, the ankle issue could delay him a few days. Rotowire.com Today, 9:26 am

  • Rangers activate Justin Foscue, send him to AAA
    Rangers activated INF Justin Foscue from the 60-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Round Rock.

    Advice: Foscue played in just two games for the Rangers in April before suffering an oblique strain. There’s no room for him on the roster now, but if he excels in Triple-A, perhaps he’ll get a look at DH or maybe even first base later. Rotoworld Today, 9:20 am
