    • Dealing with neck spasms
      Kepler exited Thursday's game against the Rays because of neck spasms, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Kepler tweaked his neck while sliding into first base when he attempted to bunt for a hit in the first inning. He should be considered day-to-day for now, but the Twins could provide more information on Kepler's status after the game. Rotowire.com Thursday, 11:31 am

      Nolan Jones was scratched from the Rockies’ starting lineup on Wednesday night due to illness.

      Advice: Fortunately, he’s not dealing with any serious ailments and should be able to return to action in a day or two. Sean Bouchard will start in his place in left field and will bat sixth for the Rockies against Bobby Miller and the Dodgers. Rotoworld Wednesday, 4:27 pm

    • Scratched Wednesday
      Jones was scratched from the Rockies' lineup before Wednesday's game against the Dodgers due to illness, Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette reports.

      Advice: Jones was reportedly feeling unwell ahead of Wednesday's contest, so he'll step out of the lineup and use the day to recover. Sean Bouchard will instead serve as Colorado's left fielder and bat sixth. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 4:21 pm

    • Nolan Jones scratched from Rockies’ lineup
      Nolan Jones was scratched from the Rockies’ starting lineup on Wednesday.

      Advice: No word given yet on the reason for the late scratch, but it could simply be that they wanted to get Sean Bouchard in there after he was activated from the injured list on Wednesday. Stay tuned, as the Rockies should have an update on his status shortly. Rotoworld Wednesday, 4:04 pm

    • First three-hit game of season
      Jones went 3-for-4 with an RBI on Sunday against the Pirates.

      Advice: Jones started in his second straight game since returning from the injured list and has hit fifth and sixth in the order. He delivered his first three-hit effort and only sixth multi-knock performance of the campaign in 29 starts. That provides some hope that he's now fully healthy and prepared to improve upon his .196 average and .587 OPS. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:56 am

    • Returns for nightcap
      Kepler (elbow) went 1-for-5 in a win over the A's in the second game of Sunday's doubleheader.

      Advice: After being hit by a pitch on the elbow Friday, Kepler was held out Saturday and for the first game of Sunday's twin bill. He was back in the lineup for Game 2, however, and appears to be in the clear moving forward. Trade rumors have followed Kepler for several seasons, but he continues to fill a prominent role against right-handed pitching for Minnesota. The 31-year-old remains an above-average offensive contributor thanks in part to the limited exposure to lefties (.261/.323/.426 overall this season). Rotowire.com Sunday, 9:38 pm

    • Max Kepler (elbow) returns to Twins lineup
      Max Kepler (elbow) returned to the Twins’ starting lineup for the nightcap of Sunday’s doubleheader against the Athletics.

      Advice: Kepler was held out of the team’s starting lineup on Saturday — before that game was washed out by rain. He then sat out the first game of Sunday’s twin bill with a left-hander on the hill for the A’s, but he’s right back in his customary cleanup spot in the order for the second game on Sunday night.
