  • Out of Sunday's lineup
    Canzone is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

    Advice: Canzone will hit the bench Sunday for a second straight day after starting the previous six contests. He's gone 2-for-16 with 10 strikeouts since he collected four hits June 22 in Miami. Dylan Moore will start in left field Sunday, pushing Luke Raley to right. Rotowire.com Today, 12:17 pm
     
  • Hitting bench Sunday
    McKinstry is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

    Advice: With southpaw Tyler Anderson on the hill for the Angels, the lefty-hitting McKinstry will duck out of the lineup. Ryan Kreidler will step in for McKinstry at shortstop. Rotowire.com Today, 12:12 pm

  • Garrett Mitchell not likely to join Brewers Sunday
    Brewers’ manager Pat Murphy said after Saturday’s loss to the Cubs that he didn’t expect Garrett Mitchell to join the big league roster on Sunday.

    Advice: It’s curious, as Murphy told reporters after Friday’s game that there was no plan to option Mitchell to Triple-A Nashville once his rehab assignment came to an end on Saturday. Something has to give. It sounds like the 25-year-old outfielder is going to remain at the Triple-A level for the time being instead of adding to an already crowded outfield mix in Milwaukee.

  • Idle Saturday
    Canzone is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Twins.

    Advice: Canzone will get the night off Saturday after making six consecutive starts. Instead, Mitch Haniger will fill right field and bat eighth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:47 pm
     
  • Dealing with knee soreness
    Hays is dealing with swelling and soreness in his knee, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

    Advice: Hays jammed his knee while making a play in the outfield Tuesday and hasn't appeared in a game since. He could be available off the bench Saturday, but there's a chance the Orioles wait until his knee has fully recovered before putting him back in a game. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:07 pm

  • Austin Hays sits due to soreness in right knee
    Austin Hays was held out of the Orioles’ starting lineup once again on Saturday due to soreness and swelling in his right knee.

    Advice: Hays jammed his knee near the wall while patrolling the outfield earlier in the week, which is the reason that he has been held out of action since Tuesday. There’s a chance that he could be available off the O’s bench during Saturday night’s tilt against the Rangers. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:57 pm

  • Taking seat Saturday
    Taveras isn't in the Rangers' lineup for Saturday's game against the Orioles.

    Advice: Taveras will get a breather Saturday after going 3-for-7 with an RBI through the first two games of the series. Derek Hill will fill the void in center field and bat ninth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:54 pm
     
  • Finishing month on upswing
    Taveras went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and an RBI in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Orioles.

    Advice: Taveras had a bases-loaded walk and swiped his ninth bag in the loss. He's set up for a fourth consecutive season of double-digit steals. The outfielder was having a brutal month, but he's finishing June on an upswing. After enduring a 2-for-45 (.044) stretch over 14 games, Taveras has hit safely in seven of the subsequent 10 contests, going 9-for-29 (.310) with three steals, a home run, five RBI and an additional three runs scored.

  • Records fifth steal
    Schuemann went 1-for-3 with two RBI and one stolen base in Friday's 9-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Schuemann supplied a sacrifice fly in the fourth inning and an RBI single in the eighth. The 27-year-old has gone 21 games without a multi-hit effort since his 4-for-4 performance in Atlanta on June 1. He was hitting .266 after that game, but he's at .226 now while adding a .630 OPS, three home runs, 15 RBI, 26 runs scored and five steals across 61 contests. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:07 pm
