    • Riley Greene homers twice in win
      Riley Greene went 4-for-5 with two home runs, six RBI and two runs scored in a 13-5 win over the Astros on Saturday.

      Advice: Greene didn’t hit for a ton of power last year while recovering from a shoulder injury, so there was a narrative that he was more of a slap hitter, but that was never the case. The 23-year-old is now up to 14 home runs on the season to go along with 36 RBI and a .836 OPS. He looks to be in the midst of a full-on breakout and has a bright fantasy future ahead of him.

    • Has Grade 2 hamstring strain
      Harris has a Grade 2 left hamstring strain and there isn't a timetable for return, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports Saturday.

      Advice: Harris was placed on the 10-day IL earlier Saturday after sustaining a strained hamstring in Friday's game against the Rays. However, an MRI revealed that Harris' strain is Grade 2, which likely indicates he'll be sidelined for more than the minimum 10 days. Ramon Laureano was called up to take Harris' 26-man roster spot, though J.P. Martinez should handle most of the work in center field. Rotowire.com Today, 4:31 pm
       
    • Michael Harris II diagnosed with Grade 2 strain
      Michael Harris II has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 left hamstring strain.

      Advice: If it wasn’t bad enough that the 23-year-old outfielder landed on the injured list with his hamstring strain, his MRI exam revealed it to be a more serious strain, which means that he’ll be sidelined for even longer. The Braves have yet to provide a timeline for his recovery, but it’s going to be longer than just a couple of weeks. Expect Ramon Laureano to see increased action in the Braves’ outfield in the meantime. Rotoworld Today, 4:22 pm
       
    • Aiming for return in late June
      Contreras (forearm) is targeting a return in late June, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports reports.

      Advice: Contreras has resumed taking batting practice and hopes to be cleared to begin a rehab assignment early next week. If that happens, a return sometime during the Cardinals' June 22-30 homestand is likely. It would be at least a couple weeks quicker than he was initially expected back following surgery in early May to repair a fractured forearm. Rotowire.com Today, 11:04 am
       
    • More BP, then games
      Contreras (forearm) came out of his Friday's batting practice session with no issues and will repeat the step for the next few days, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: It was the first time Contreras had taken BP since he had surgery on his fractured left forearm in early May. The hope is that he will be ready for a rehab assignment after a few days of batting practice, but he will need to gain medical clearance first. Contreras is tracking toward an earlier-than-expected return, but there's no target date just yet. Rotowire.com Today, 9:45 am
       
    • Placed on 10-day IL
      Harris (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday.

      Advice: As expected, Harris will now be sidelined for at least 10 days while nursing a strained left hamstring. Ramon Laureano was selected from Triple-A Gwinnett to replace Harris on the major-league roster while Spencer Strider (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list in corresponding moves.

    • Michael Harris II hits IL with hamstring strain
      Braves placed OF Michael Harris II on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain.

      Advice: No word yet on the severity of the injury, but fantasy managers should anticipate Harris missing at least a couple weeks, even in a best-case scenario. The 23-year-old upper-echelon fantasy contributor, who hits the shelf with a .653 OPS with five homers and eight steals across 278 plate appearances through 67 contests, suffered the injury during the opening frame of Friday’s contest against the Rays while running the bases. There should be some clarity on his return timeline in the coming days. Rotoworld Today, 7:32 am
       
    • Joey Ortiz walks three times Friday in return
      Joey Ortiz (hamstring) went 0-for-2 with an RBI and also walked three times on Friday in his return to the lineup.

      Advice: Ortiz was back at third base and batting seventh on Friday night agains the Reds following a two-game absence due to right hamstring soreness. It doesn’t sound like a serious concern moving forward for the 25-year-old infielder, who is in the midst of a true breakout season in his Brewers debut. Rotoworld Today, 4:11 am

    • Jackson Chourios knocks in two against Reds
      Jackson Chourio singled twice and knocked in two runs against the Reds on Friday.

      Advice: Chourio would surely be back in the minors at this point if he hadn’t signed a long-term deal this spring, but it’s not like he’s embarrassing himself with a .229/.280/.365 line as a 20-year-old in a season in which offense has been hard to come by. His long-term outlook hasn’t diminished at all, even if he still doesn’t seem like a very good bet in mixed leagues over the rest of 2024. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:24 pm
