    • Begins hitting, fielding
      Perdomo (knee) has started to take live at-bats, hit in the cages and field ground balls, Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports reports.

      Advice: Perdomo, who's putting in five-to-seven hours per day while rehabbing at Salt River Fields, expressed optimism that he'll return by the end of the month. Arizona manager Torey Lovullo is not ready to put a timeline on the shortstop's return, but acknowledged Perdomo looks good executing the work he's currently doing. Next up, per the manager, is getting spikes on Perdomo's feet and having him run, cut, make turns and the agility to start and stop. Rotowire.com Today, 3:14 am

    • Hammered by Atlanta
      Taillon (3-1) took the loss Tuesday, surrendering seven runs (two earned) on seven hits and three walks over four innings as the Cubs fell 7-0 to Atlanta. He struck out two.

      Advice: The right-hander's own fielding error in the fourth inning softened the blow to his ERA, but Taillon's final line was by no means undeserved as he served up homers to Michael Harris and Matt Olson in his last frame. It's the first time in five starts Taillon has been taken deep multiple times, and he'll take a 1.61 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 18:8 K:BB through 28 innings into his next outing, which is scheduled to come at home this weekend against the Pirates.

    • Taillon doomed by poor 4th inning in loss to ATL
      Jameson Taillon allowed seven runs (two earned) on seven hits in four innings in a loss to the Braves on Tuesday.

      Advice: Taillon allowed just one run on four hits in the first three innings, with three of those hits coming in the first. He started off the fourth inning by allowing a home run to Michal Harris II but then Taillon committed a fielding error and would later throw a wild pitch, both of which extended the inning and caused the right-hander to throw more pitches, allow more hits, and more unearned runs. It was a sloppy inning that overshadowed Taillon’s impressive 28 percent whiff rate with 12 whiffs coming on 43 swings. His sweeper and cutter were particularly strong on the day, but he struggled with his command and the Braves made him pay. Taillon will carry a 1.61 ERA into a start against the Pirates this weekend and is a strong streaming candidate for that game. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:43 pm
       
    • Joey Meneses goes 4-for-4 in win over White Sox
      Joey Meneses went 4-for-4 with a pair of RBI to lead the Nationals to a 6-3 win over the White Sox in the opening contest of Tuesday’s doubleheader.

      Advice: Meneses put Washington ahead in the fifth inning with a two-run single to left field off White Sox starter Chris Flexen. He capped off a four-hit effort with a leadoff single in the eighth inning before being lifted for a pinch-runner. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:31 pm
       
    • Jason Heyward starts up rehab assignment Tuesday
      Jason Heyward (back) will start a minor league rehab assignment on Tuesday with Triple-A Oklahoma City.

      Advice: Heyward’s impending return is likely to force the Dodgers to make a tough decision between Chris Taylor and James Outman on the active roster in the coming days with rookie Andy Pages proving that he should be playing everyday at the moment. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:03 pm

    • Austin Riley sitting out again Tuesday vs. Cubs
      Austin Riley (side) remains absent from the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Cubs.

      Advice: The Braves received positive news earlier this week when an MRI revealed only left side inflammation rather than an oblique strain. The 27-year-old fantasy stalwart remains day-to-day and appears likely to avoid a trip to the injured list at the moment. He should benefit from Thursday’s off-day giving him additional time to rest and recover, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see him return for Friday’s series opener against the Padres.

    • Will return to lineup Wednesday
      Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Tuesday that Harper (migraine) will return to the lineup Wednesday against the Mets, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Harper was a late scratch from Tuesday's lineup after he developed a migraine, but his symptoms abated as the game versus the Mets went along and would have been available in a pinch-hitting capacity. He was not used off the bench, as it turned out, but he will be ready to roll for Wednesday's tilt. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:36 pm

    • Expected back Wednesday
      Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Tuesday that he expects Realmuto (knee) to return to the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Mets, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Realmuto missed a third straight start Tuesday because of right knee soreness. However, he got in a productive workout pregame, and as long as he doesn't have any sort of setback, it appears he'll be back in there for Wednesday's tilt in Philadelphia.

    • J.T. Realmuto (knee) likely to return Wednesday
      Phillies manager Rob Thomson told reporters J.T. Realmuto (knee) will return to the lineup on Wednesday.

      Advice: Realmuto sat out Tuesday’s showdown against the Mets at Citi Field due to an ongoing right knee issue, but it sounds like he’ll be ready to go for Wednesday’s matchup, barring something unexpected. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:31 pm
