  • Avoids structural damage to knee
    Winker, who is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins, said an MRI on his right knee showed no structural damage, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    Advice: Winker noted, however, that he's still dealing with some stiffness in his right knee, which he injured while running the bases in the first inning of Saturday's 4-0 win before he was pulled in the third inning. The 30-year-old said that he expects to be good to go after a couple of days of rest, and he'll benefit from the Nationals being off Monday before the team begins a three-game set with the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

  • Idle against southpaw
    Rosario is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Rosario will take a seat for the second day in a row while the Marlins bring another left-hander (Jesus Luzardo) to the hill. Though he's turned in an unremarkable .520 OPS thus far in June, Rosario still seems to have a hold on a near-everyday role against right-handed pitching. Rotowire.com 33 minutes ago

  • Not starting Sunday
    Winker (knee) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

  • Sitting against lefty
    Gordon is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Gordon will sit for the fourth time in five games, with the Marlins having faced left-handed starting pitchers on each of those four occasions. He'll cede his spot in the lineup to Emmanuel Rivera as the Marlins stock up on an extra right-handed bat to counter Nationals southpaw Mitchell Parker. Rotowire.com Today, 8:25 am
  • Set to lose work to Marsh
    Dahl will start in left field and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Orioles.

    Advice: Following his June 3 call-up from Triple-A Lehigh Valley, Dahl made six starts in left field and went 5-for-23 with two home runs and two doubles. His time as a regular in the Philadelphia lineup is likely over after Brandon Marsh returned from the 10-day injured list Saturday, but the Phillies have room for both Marsh and Dahl in the outfield Sunday while center fielder Johan Rojas gets the afternoon off.

  • Heading to bench Sunday
    Rojas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

    Advice: Rojas will take a seat for the second time in the series, hitting the bench while Brandon Marsh -- who returned from the injured list Saturday -- covers center field in his stead. Though Marsh will likely see most of his reps in left field moving forward, his return could cost Rojas more time if he continues to languish at the plate and the Phillies want to open up more at-bats for David Dahl, who had served as the primary replacement in left field for Marsh.

  • On bench against righty
    Crow-Armstrong is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Crow-Armstrong be on the bench against a right-handed starting pitcher (Miles Mikolas) for the second time in the series. After he was called up from Triple-A Iowa on May 30, Crow-Armstrong had settled into a near-everyday role in center field while the Cubs eased Cody Bellinger back from the injured list by deploying him more frequently at designated hitter, first base and right field. Now that Bellinger is further removed from a fractured rib cage and with first baseman Michael Busch also seemingly regaining the confidence of manager Craig Counsell, Crow-Armstrong could find himself as the odd man out of the Chicago lineup.

  • Grand slam in win
    Toglia went 2-for-4 with a grand slam and two runs scored in Saturday's win over the Pirates while also drawing a walk.

    Advice: Toglia reached base in each of his first two at-bats, coming around to score Colorado's second run of the game on a Jake Cave double in the fourth. The 25-year-old would then add more insurance runs for the Rockies with a grand slam in the eighth as they ran away with the win at home. Toglia is now batting .300 in June with nine RBI and four runs scored and he's now hit safely in three straight games. Saturday also marked his second two-hit performance of the campaign.
