    • Sitting against lefty
      Sanchez is not in the lineup for Friday's contest in Philadelphia.

      Advice: Left-hander Cristopher Sanchez is toeing the slab for the Phillies, so the lefty-hitting Sanchez will take a seat. Dane Myers will patrol right field for the Marlins. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:26 pm
       
    • Idle again Friday
      Laureano is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Laureano will be out of the starting nine for a second consecutive contest, giving way to Adam Duvall in right field once again. Laureano had started in each of Atlanta's previous seven games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:19 pm
       
    • Sitting Thursday
      Laureano isn't in Atlanta's lineup for Thursday's game against the White Sox.

      Advice: Laureano has slashed .257/.257/.457 with a homer and four RBI in 35 plate appearances since joining Atlanta on June 15. He'll get a breather versus Chad Kuhl and the Sox, allowing Adam Duvall to start in right field and bat eighth. Rotowire.com Thursday, 11:12 am
       
    • Out of lineup against lefty again
      Peralta is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Peralta will take a seat for the third game in a row, with the Padres having faced left-handed starting pitchers in each of those contests. The Padres should still have a regular spot in the lineup for Peralta against right-handed pitching, and Fernando Tatis' (quadricep) recent move to the injured list likely gives Peralta a longer leash. Peralta has gotten off to a slow start since joining the Padres' active roster May 22, slashing .200/.302/.236 with no home runs over 63 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 12:31 pm
       
    • Sitting amid slump
      Rosario is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Rosario typically hits the bench against left-handed pitching, but he'll take a seat Wednesday while a righty (Dylan Cease) toes the rubber for the Padres. Despite seeing limited exposure to same-handed pitching, Rosario has fallen into a slump at the plate lately, going 6-for-41 while failing to draw a walk in any of his last 12 games. The Nationals added another option at designated hitter to the roster Tuesday in Harold Ramirez, who is in the lineup Wednesday and could challenge Rosario for the top spot on the depth chart.

    • Eddie Rosario on bench against right-hander
      Even though the Nationals are facing a righty, Eddie Rosario is out of the lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Padres.

      Advice: It’s just the third time this year that he hasn’t started against a righty. After a fine May, Rosario has slumped again of late, going 7-for-45 with no homers or walks in his last 13 games. Because of a brutal April, he’s at just .181/.226/.330 overall. Harold Ramírez is starting in his place today. Rotoworld Wednesday, 11:34 am
       
    • Getting fifth straight start
      Loperfido will start in right field and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

      Advice: Loperfido will stick in the starting nine for a fifth straight game after going 4-for-13 with two doubles, one walk, two RBI, one stolen base and one run through his first four games since receiving a call-up from Triple-A Sugar Land. Houston has room in its everyday outfield for both Loperfido and Chas McCormick for the moment, but one of the two will likely lose out on playing time once Kyle Tucker (shin) makes his return from the 10-day injured list, perhaps as soon as next week.

    • Idle Wednesday
      McCormick is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies.

      Advice: After starting each of the last three games, McCormick will be the odd man out of the Astros outfield on Wednesday with Houston clearing a spot in left field for Yordan Alvarez, who typically serves as the team's designated hitter. McCormick could be forced to the bench on a more frequent basis once Kyle Tucker (shin) returns from the injured list, though it's not yet clear when Tucker might rejoin the big club as his rehab program has proceeded more slowly than anticipated.

    • Idle for series finale
      Taveras is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Milwaukee.

      Advice: Derek Hill was called up from Triple-A Round Rock prior to Wednesday's game and will be put to work right away, stepping in as the Rangers' starter in center field for the resting Taveras. After falling into an extended slump at the plate through the first half of June, Taveras seems to have righted the ship of late with six hits -- including a home run -- and two stolen bases in 21 at-bats over his last seven games.
