  • Records 10th steal Friday
    Moore went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in a win over the Rangers on Friday.

    Advice: One night after striking out four times in his return from a brief paternity leave, Moore made contact on all four plate appearances and followed his one hit with his 10th steal of the season. The veteran's swipe locked in his fifth double-digit tally in that category across six big-league seasons, but the knock was only his fifth across 38 plate appearances in June.

  • Sitting Saturday
    Schneider is not in the starting lineup Saturday versus the Guardians, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Advice: Schneider will take a seat after he went 3-for-8 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored over the team's last two contests. Daulton Varsho will slot in at left field while Kevin Kiermaier (knee) returns to the lineup in center field and bats ninth against Cleveland. Rotowire.com Today, 8:31 am
     
  • Sitting Saturday
    Gelof is not in the starting lineup Saturday against the Twins.

    Advice: Gelof will take a seat after going 0-for-6 with a walk and three strikeouts over the first two games of the series. Abraham Toro will slide over to second base while J.D. Davis enters the lineup at the hot corner, batting sixth versus Minnesota. Rotowire.com Today, 8:21 am

  • Stuck in small-side platoon
    Rosario went 1-for-4 with a double and an RBI on Friday against Atlanta.

    Advice: With both Brandon Lowe and Taylor Walls back healthy, Rosario has found his playing time coming almost exclusively against lefties. He's hit well in the role, maintaining a .393 average with three RBI and four runs scored across his last 10 games, but he's started only one of the Rays' last six matchups against righties.

  • Joey Ortiz walks three times Friday in return
    Joey Ortiz (hamstring) went 0-for-2 with an RBI and also walked three times on Friday in his return to the lineup.

    Advice: Ortiz was back at third base and batting seventh on Friday night agains the Reds following a two-game absence due to right hamstring soreness. It doesn’t sound like a serious concern moving forward for the 25-year-old infielder, who is in the midst of a true breakout season in his Brewers debut. Rotoworld Today, 4:11 am

  • Edouard Julien batting .171 at Triple-A St. Paul
    Edouard Julien went 2-for-4 with a walk on Friday for Triple-A St. Paul.

    Advice: Julien has struggled to a .171 (7-for-41) average with one homer in 10 games since being demoted to the minors earlier this month. The 25-year-old second baseman is going to get some extended time to iron things out in the minors and doesn’t appear close to returning to Minnesota at the moment. Rotoworld Today, 3:51 am

  • Homers in comeback win
    Rojas went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run in Friday's 4-3 win over the Royals.

    Advice: Rojas sparked the Dodgers' comeback with his fifth-inning homer off Cole Ragans. The long ball was Rojas' first since April 3. The infielder has three multi-hit efforts over his last eight games, but he's also gone hitless three times in that span. For the season, he's at a .280/.330/.449 slash line with three homers, 14 RBI, 13 runs scored and three stolen bases over 115 plate appearances. Rojas appears to be out of the mix for time at third base following the Dodgers' trade for Cavan Biggio. It's likely Rojas will settle into a short-side platoon role at second base going forward, sharing the position with Gavin Lux. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:52 pm

  • Miguel Rojas blasts two-run homer vs. Royals
    Miguel Rojas hit a two-run homer in a 4-3 win over the Royals on Friday.

    Advice: Rojas got the Dodgers back in the game with a two-run shot off an otherwise-effective Cole Ragans. The 35-year-old is better known for his glove than his bat, but this is his third homer of 2024, and his slash of .280/.339/.449 is nothing to sneeze at. That .779 OPS is over 100 points over his career mark of .667, so it’s hard to fathom this keeps up in the second half of the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:19 pm

  • Enmanuel Valdez plates lone run in loss to Yankees
    Enmanuel Valdez doubled and drove in the Red Sox’ lone run in Friday night’s loss to the Yankees.

    Advice: The 25-year-old infielder smacked an RBI double off of the center field wall off of Luis Gil in the fourth inning, pulling the Red Sox to within two runs at 3-1. That would be as close as they would get. He also drew a walk in the contest, finishing the night 1-for-2. On the season, Valdez is hitting just .203/.246/.407 with five homers and 23 RBI.
