  • Masataka Yoshida starting rehab assignment this weekend
    Red Sox manager Alex Cora confirmed Tuesday that Masataka Yoshida (thumb) is expected to start a minor league rehab assignment this weekend.

    Advice: Yoshida has been on the shelf since the start of May due to a left thumb strain, but managed to avoid surgery. The 30-year-old is going to need some time to get back up to speed in the minors before returning to Boston’s lineup mix at designated hitter. Rotoworld Today, 1:36 pm

  • Kyle Tucker (shin) absent from Tuesday’s lineup
    Kyle Tucker (shin) is absent from the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Cardinals.

    Advice: The encouraging development here for fantasy managers is that X-rays came back negative for any fractures and Tucker hasn’t been placed on the injured list yet following an early exit from Monday’s series opener after fouling a ball off his right shin. It’ll be Mauricio Dubón taking over in right field on Tuesday evening in his absence. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for the moment. Rotoworld Today, 1:29 pm

  • On bench vs. southpaw
    Lowe is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Marlins.

    Advice: Lowe was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Monday after missing time with an oblique issue, but he's not in the lineup for his first game back since lefty Jesus Luzardo is starting for Miami. Randy Arozarena, Jose Siri and Jonny DeLuca will start across the outfield while Harold Ramirez serves as the designated hitter. Rotowire.com Today, 1:27 pm

  • Out of lineup Tuesday
    Bouchard isn't part of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Cincinnati.

    Advice: Bouchard will give way to the lefty-hitting Jake Cave in left field Tuesday with RHP Frankie Montas on the mound for the Reds. While Bouchard remains the Rockies' preferred left fielder with Jordan Beck (hand) sidelined, he's still expected to cede work to Cave and Hunter Goodman on occasion. Rotowire.com Today, 1:04 pm
