    • On bench against southpaw
      Massey is out of the lineup for Sunday's game agains the Guardians.

      Advice: Massey will be joined on the bench by fellow left-handed hitters MJ Melendez and Kyle Isbel as the Guardians send southpaw Logan Allen to the hill. Vinnie Pasquantino will replace Massey as the Royals' designated hitter. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:01 am
       
    • Massey belts seventh home run in loss Saturday
      Michael Massey went 2-for-3 with a solo home run against the Guardians on Saturday.

      Advice: Massey’s home run was his seventh of the season. He’s quietly been one of the best hitters for the Royals this year. His home run off Tanner Bibee gave the Royals a 2-1 lead in the second inning, but it wouldn’t last. Massey is hitting .293 with an .843 OPS and 24 RBI in 116 at-bats with Kansas City this year.

    • Not in Friday's lineup
      Massey is absent from the lineup for Friday's game against the Guardians.

      Advice: Massey was hit by a pitch in Thursday's game, so it's possible he's a bit sore. Salvador Perez will be the Royals' designated hitter while Freddy Fermin does the catching. Rotowire.com Friday, 12:59 pm
       
    • Sitting out Wednesday
      Massey is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Marlins.

      Advice: Massey started the first two games of the series at designated hitter upon his activation from the 10-day injured list, but he will begin the Wednesday afternoon tilt on the bench. Vinnie Pasquantino will serve as the Royals' DH on Wednesday while Salvador Perez gets a start at first base. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:11 am
       
    • DH only for now
      Massey will be available only as a designated hitter for the time being as he returns from a back injury, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Massey was activated from the 10-day injured list Monday after missing time with a low-back ligament sprain, which was the second time this season he's missed time with a back issue. While the 26-year-old is feeling good physically, he needs some time before he's ready to play second base again. The Royals shifted Maikel Garcia over to second base and started CJ Alexander at third base Monday. Nick Loftin should also see plenty of reps at second base on days Garcia plays third, a position more familiar to him. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 6:41 am
       
    • Returns from injured list
      The Royals activated Massey (back) from the 10-day injured list Monday. He'll serve as the Royals' designated hitter and No. 5 batter in Monday's game against the Marlins.

      Advice: Massey has been limited to just 29 games this season because of a pair of back-related absences. He responded well to a recent pain-killing injection, however, and is ready to rejoin the Royals after completing a five-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Omaha this past week. There's certainly risk in another aggravation of the back issue, but Massey is worth picking up in fantasy leagues where available given how well he had been hitting before getting hurt (.835 OPS in 110 plate appearances with Kansas City).

    • Royals activate Michael Massey from injured list
      Royals activated 2B Michael Massey from the 10-day injured list.

      Advice: Massey wasn’t expected to return just yet, but the Royals are bringing him back early with Adam Frazier down. Massey, who missed a month with a sprained back ligament, had played in five Double-A rehab games, going 4-for-21 with no extra-base hits, but he was still being limited to DH duties. He may spend some time there for the Royals, too. Rotoworld Monday, 1:34 pm
