    • Nolan Gorman takes a seat on Thursday
      Nolan Gorman is not in the Cardinals’ starting lineup on Thursday.

      Advice: With the Cardinals facing a lefty, Gorman will head to the bench and the team will turn to Jose Fermin at second base. Gorman has been a good source of power this season with 16 home runs, but he’s also hitting .191 on the season with a 36 percent strikeout rate and has been worse in June with a .148 average and 38 percent strikeout rate in 24 games. However, he also has four steals in June, which has saved his fantasy value a bit, but he’s hard to roster in batting average leagues if you have ample power because of the drain he puts on your team with his average.

    • Not starting against southpaw
      Carpenter isn't in the Cardinals' lineup for Thursday's game versus the Reds, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

      Advice: St. Louis will match up against left-handed starter Andrew Abbott on Thursday, so the lefty-hitting Carpenter will step out of the lineup. Willson Contreras will take over as the DH while Pedro Pages starts at catcher and bats ninth. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago
       
    • Idle against southpaw
      Siani isn't in the Cardinals' lineup for Thursday's game against the Reds, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

      Advice: Left-hander Andrew Abbott will take the mound Thursday for the Reds, so the lefty-hitting Siani will retreat to St. Louis' bench. Dylan Carlson will get the nod to start in center field instead, batting seventh. Rotowire.com 21 minutes ago
       
    • Resting versus LHP
      Gorman isn't in the Cardinals' lineup for Thursday's game against the Reds, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

      Advice: Gorman and his .596 OPS against southpaws will take a seat Thursday as the Reds prepare to send lefty Andrew Abbott to the mound. Jose Fermin will take over at second base and bat eighth. Rotowire.com 23 minutes ago
       
    • Out of Philadelphia lineup
      Marsh is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Marlins.

      Advice: It's southpaw Trevor Rogers toeing the rubber for Miami, so the left-handed hitting Marsh will take a seat. Cristian Pache will be in center field and Kyle Schwarber will cover left. Rotowire.com Today, 11:50 am
       
    • Out again versus lefty
      Stott is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Marlins.

      Advice: Stott was out of the lineup Tuesday against a lefty and will also begin this one on the bench as the Marlins send southpaw Trevor Rogers to the hill. He did pinch hit in Tuesday's contest, so perhaps another mid-game appearance is possible. Whit Merrifield is handling second base for the Phillies on Thursday. Rotowire.com Today, 11:48 am

    • Bryson Stott gets a day off on Thursday
      Bryson Stott is not in the Phillies’ starting lineup on Thursday.

      Advice: Stott will get a routine day off on Thursday with left-handed Trevor Rogers on the mound. Edmundo Sosa will start at shortstop and bat sixth with Whit Merrifield starting at 2B. Trea Turner is also at DH with Kyle Schwarber moving to left field as David Dahl sits against a lefty. Rotoworld Today, 11:45 am

    • Jorge Mateo starts third straight game at 2B
      Jorge Mateo is starting at second base and hitting ninth for the Orioles on Thursday against the Rangers.

      Advice: Mateo has now started three straight games and four of the last five. However, he’s hitting just .240/.282/.453 with five home runs, 12 steals, and a 23 percent strikeout rate. However, he’s hitting just .225 in June and Coby Mayo is on fire in Triple-A, so Mateo might need to go on a hot streak to keep getting starting opportunities. Rotoworld Today, 11:39 am

    • Anthony Santander getting a day off on Thursday
      Anthony Santander will get a day off on Thursday with Colton Cowser starting in left field and batting eighth against the Rangers.

      Advice: Santander is on fire in June with 12 home runs in 25 games. He’ll rest, and we’ll get to see Colton Cowser and Heston Kjerstad in the lineup at the same time. Rotoworld Today, 11:36 am
