  • Free agent after opting out
    The Twins released Kemp on Monday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Advice: Kemp had a July 1 opt-out clause in his minor-league contract and decided to exercise it. The utility player slashed .279/.358/.436 with six homers in 46 games with Triple-A St. Paul. He'll now look to latch on in another organization. Rotowire.com Today, 2:09 pm

  • Twins release Tony Kemp from minor league deal
    Twins released INF/OF Tony Kemp.

    Advice: Kemp opted out of his deal with the Twins after hitting .279/.358/.436 in 46 games for Triple-A St Paul. His next organization will be his fourth since exiting Oakland as a free agent; he was let go by the Reds this spring and the Orioles in April. Rotoworld Today, 2:06 pm

  • Sitting against southpaw
    Garcia is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets.

    Advice: With southpaw David Peterson on the bump for the Mets, the lefty-hitting Garcia will head to the bench in the series opener. Ildemaro Vargas will fill in for Garcia at the keystone. Rotowire.com Today, 12:42 pm
     
  • Brewers designate Owen Miller for assignment
    Brewers designated INF/OF Owen Miller for assignment.

    Advice: With Garrett Mitchell coming off the 60-day IL, the Brewers needed an extra spot on the 40-man roster, so they decided to move on from Miller, who had been sent to Triple-A at the end of May. Miller had started the year strong for Milwaukee but is hitting just .185 on the season with a 39 percent strikeout rate. He’ll hope to get a shot with another organization. Rotoworld Today, 11:37 am

  • Brewers send Tyler Black to minors (again)
    Brewers optioned INF Tyler Black to Triple-A Nashville.

    Advice: Black got his second chance with the Brewers this season but rarely played, going 3-for-11 and sitting this entire week before being demoted to make room for Garrett Mitchell to come off the IL. Black has the tolls to be a useful fantasy player, but he might not get the opportunity this season. Rotoworld Today, 11:31 am

  • Late entrant into lineup
    Clement will start at third base and bat ninth in Monday's game against the Astros.

    Advice: Clement wasn't in the Blue Jays' initial lineup, but he'll get his third straight start after he was a late addition in place of Vladimir Guerrero (finger), who was scratched. Guerrero is considered day-to-day, and once he's able to rejoin the lineup, Clement will likely return to his usual bench role. Rotowire.com Today, 10:19 am

  • Exits 40-man roster
    The Brewers designated Miller for assignment Monday.

    Advice: The 27-year-old has spent most of his time this season in the minors, having slashed just .185/.185/.222 across 27 plate appearances during his time in the majors in 2024. Miller offers some defensive versatility and has flashed at times offensively, so it's possible he draws some interest via trade or waivers. Rotowire.com Today, 9:47 am

  • Tallies three hits in loss
    Hernandez went 3-for-4 with a double and a run Sunday in a loss to San Francisco.

    Advice: Hernandez accounted for three of the Dodgers' eight hits in the contest as he recorded his first multi-hit performance since May 29. The utility man has remained an inconsistent part of the team's lineup despite injuries to Max Muncy (oblique) and Mookie Betts (wrist). Hernandez has started just three of the Dodgers' past seven games, and he carries a mediocre .208/.274/.312 slash line along with four homers and 12 RBI over 190 plate appearances on the campaign.

  • Ready for rehab assignment
    Amador (oblique) was sent to Double-A Hartford on Sunday to begin a rehab assignment.

    Advice: Amador has been on the 10-day injured list for a little over a week with a strained oblique but has been cleared to return to game action. He should be ready to be activated soon, but with Brendan Rodgers beating him back from the IL, Amador is likely to remain with Hartford upon his activation rather than returning to the Rockies.
