    Advice: The lefty-hitting Raley will give way to righty Victor Robles again Friday with the Mariners facing another left-handed pitcher. Raley and Robles should continue to platoon, with Raley on the strong side of the split. Rotowire.com Today, 2:02 pm

  • Likely back Saturday
    Kelenic (wrist) is likely to return to Atlanta's lineup Saturday versus the Nationals, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Advice: Kelenic is missing a second straight start Friday after tweaking his right wrist on a diving catch Wednesday. However, he hit in the cage Friday and will be available to pinch hit. Barring any complications, Kelenic should be back in there for Saturday's contest. Rotowire.com Today, 1:54 pm
  • Fielding, could hit Friday
    Mateo (concussion) took ground balls Friday and could participate in batting practice, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Mateo was able to play catch Thursday and took another step forward in his rehab from a concussion he sustained June 2. The second baseman appears to be on track to return next week. Rotowire.com Today, 1:53 pm

  • On bench Friday
    Valdez is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the White Sox, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

    Advice: Valdez will dodge a matchup with southpaw Garrett Crochet, giving way to Jamie Westbrook at second base Friday. Since Vaughn Grissom (hamstring) got hurt on June 1, Valdez is 7-for-20 with three homers, eight RBI and one strikeout. Rotowire.com Today, 1:41 pm
  • Absent from lineup versus lefty
    Naylor is not in the lineup for Friday's game in Miami.

    Advice: With southpaw Ryan Weathers on the hill for the Marlins, the left-handed hitting Naylor will start this one on the bench. Austin Hedges will do the catching for Logan Allen. Rotowire.com Today, 1:39 pm
  • Sitting out after HBP
    Hoerner is not in Friday's lineup in Cincinnati after being hit on the hand by a pitch in Thursday's win over the White Sox, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

    Advice: Hoerner was struck by a pitch in the fourth inning Thursday but stayed in and finished that game. He underwent a precautionary X-ray afterward, which evidently came back clean. However, it could be dealing with some residual soreness, hence his absence from Friday's lineup. Consider him day-to-day. David Bote will handle second base Friday. Rotowire.com Today, 1:22 pm

  • Still out Friday
    Kelenic (wrist) is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: Kelenic will miss a second straight game after injuring his wrist on a diving catch Wednesday. All indications point to the injury being minor, so he should be back in the lineup soon. In the meantime, Adam Duvall will play left field and J.P. Martinez will step into right. Rotowire.com Today, 12:39 pm
