  • Getting Sunday off
    Anderson isn't in the Marlins' lineup for Sunday's game versus Seattle.

    Advice: After going 0-for-3 on Saturday to end his brief five-game hitting streak, Anderson will get a breather during Sunday's series finale. Vidal Brujan will fill the opening at shortstop and bat eighth. Rotowire.com Today, 9:49 am
     
  • Amed Rosario available off the bench on Sunday
    Amed Rosario (face) is not in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Pirates.

    Advice: Rosario told reporters he’s available off the bench, if needed. He also added that he isn’t experiencing any pain or related soreness, after being hit in the face by a pitch during Saturday’s game that resulted in a cut that required stitches. It sounds like he’s going to be ready to return in a couple days, if not sooner. Rotoworld Today, 8:44 am

  • Suspended 80 games for PED use
    Martinez was suspended for 80 games for violating the league's drug prevention and treatment program, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Advice: Two days after making his major-league debut against the Guardians on Friday, Martinez was suspended by the league after testing positive for clomiphene. In a statement following Martinez's suspension, Toronto general manager Ross Atkins fully supported the league's suspension of the 22-year-old prospect and said that the Blue Jays "will do everything in our power to ensure [Martinez] has learned from this mistake," per Davidi. The suspension will keep Martinez out of action until the tail end of the season, with a possible return date of Sept. 23 lining up with the start of the Blue Jays' penultimate series of the season against the Red Sox.

  • Orelvis Martinez hit with 80-game PED suspension
    Blue Jays top prospect Orelvis Martinez has received an 80-game suspension after testing positive for a performance enhancing substance.

    Advice: Wow. According to a team statement, Martinez tested positive for clomiphene, a performance-enhancing substance. Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins added “We were both surprised and disappointed to learn of Orelvis Martinez’s suspension. We will do everything in our power to ensure Orelvis has learned from this mistake. Orelvis has our support and we know he will get through this.” The 22-year-old top prospect made his big-league debut earlier this week, going 1-for-3 at the dish, after posting an .867 OPS with 16 homers across 63 games this season for Triple-A Buffalo. He can be dropped in all re-draft formats as his season is ostensibly over. Rotoworld Today, 8:23 am

  • Reds recall infielder Livan Soto on Sunday
    Reds recalled INF Livan Soto from Triple-A Louisville.

    Advice: Soto was claimed off waivers back in mid-April from the Orioles and will be making his Cincinnati debut when he gets into a contest. The 24-year-old infielder got into 22 games for the Angels from 2022 to 2023. He’s a non-factor for fantasy purposes, but represents a solid bench depth option in the big leagues.

  • Recalled to majors
    The Reds recalled Soto from Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.

    Advice: Soto has remained at Louisville since he was claimed off waivers from Baltimore in April, slashing .299/.393/.372 with 19 RBI across 191 plate appearances. He doesn't have a clear path to playing time in Cincinnati's infield, so he'll likely occupy the bench as a depth piece. Austin Wynns was designated for assignment in order to clear a spot on the active roster. Rotowire.com Today, 8:08 am
     
  • Recalled by Yankees
    The Yankees recalled Peraza from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

    Advice: The move comes with Giancarlo Stanton placed on the 10-day IL due to a left hamstring strain. Peraza began the season on the injured list with a shoulder injury sustained in spring training, and since returning to Triple-A on May 19, he's slashed .178/.313/.215 with one home run and 11 RBI over 107 at-bats. Peraza appeared in 52 games for the Yankees in 2023, slashing .191/.267/.272 with two home runs and 14 RBI over 191 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 7:16 am

  • Yankees summon Oswald Peraza on Sunday
    Yankees recalled INF Oswald Peraza from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

    Advice: Peraza will be making his season debut for New York when he gets into a game after missing the first couple months of the year due to a shoulder strain that he suffered back in spring training. It’s easy to recall his struggles at the highest level over the last few years as he’s failed to carve out a permanent role for the Yankees, but he’s still just 24 years old. It’s too early to give up completely. Still, fantasy managers can take a wait-and-see approach for now to see if he finally puts it together. Rotoworld Today, 7:09 am
