  • Ketel Marte absent from Diamondbacks lineup Friday
    Ketel Marte is absent from the Diamondbacks’ starting lineup for Friday night’s series opener against the Phillies in Philadelphia.

    Advice: It appears to be nothing more than a routine day of rest for the hard-hitting second baseman. Blaze Alexander will draw a rare start at second base in his place and will bat eighth for the Diamondbacks against Taijuan Walker and the Phillies on Friday evening in Philadelphia.

  • Bryson Stott sits against southpaw on Friday night
    Bryson Stott is not in the Phillies’ starting lineup for Friday night’s showdown against the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: With left-hander Jordan Montgomery toeing the slab for the Diamondbacks, the Phillies will use it as an opportunity to give Stott a breather. Fellow left-handed hitters Brandon Marsh, David Dahl and Garrett Stubbs also find themselves on the pine for the start of this one. Edmundo Sosa will start in Stott’s place at second base and will bat sixth for the Phillies on Friday night. Rotoworld 25 minutes ago

  • Out of Friday's lineup
    Amador (oblique) is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the Nationals.

    Advice: Amador had to be pulled from Thursday's game against the Dodgers with a mild oblique issue. It seems at this point to be more of a day-to-day situation, but between the injury, his slow start and Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) due back soon, Amador looks like an easy drop in most redraft leagues.

  • On bench Friday
    Gordon is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Mariners.

    Advice: Gordon will take a seat Friday, giving way to Bryan De La Cruz in left field despite a right-hander being on the mound for Seattle. It'll be the fifth time in nine games that Gordon isn't starting. Rotowire.com Today, 12:14 pm

  • Not in Friday's lineup
    Marte is absent from the lineup for Friday's game in Philadelphia.

    Advice: Marte served as the Diamondbacks' designated hitter Thursday and is now out of their lineup altogether, although there's no indication at this point that this is anything other than a routine day off. Blaze Alexander is handling second base Friday. Rotowire.com Today, 10:22 am
  • Continues power surge Thursday
    Merrill went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 7-6 win over Milwaukee on Thursday.

    Advice: Merrill hit the second of back-to-back homers with Manny Machado in the first inning to give San Diego an early lead. The long ball was the second in as many days for Merrill, who has surged in the power department of late, with six of his nine homers on the campaign coming over his past eight games. All six of those long balls have been of the solo variety, but it's still a positive development for Merrill's fantasy managers after he went deep just three times over his first 68 games.

  • Belts walk-off homer
    Cronenworth went 2-for-5 with a walk-off solo home run and an additional run in Thursday's 7-6 win against the Brewers.

    Advice: Cronenworth became the latest ninth-inning hero for the Padres when he swatted a 401-foot solo blast to give the team its third straight walk-off win. The long ball was the 11th of the season through 74 games for the infielder, who has already surpassed his total of 10 homers over 127 contests last year. Cronenworth is on pace to exceed his career-best totals of 21 home runs and 71 RBI, which he established in 2021. Rotowire.com Today, 9:58 am
  • Sitting again versus lefty
    McNeil is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Cubs.

    Advice: McNeil has been out of the lineup for two straight games and seven times over the last eight occasions that the Mets have faced a left-hander, and he's pretty clearly in a platoon at second base with Jose Iglesias. Iglesias and his teammates will try to solve southpaw Shota Imanaga on Friday. Rotowire.com Today, 8:17 am
  • Three hits, three RBI in win
    Donovan went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double and three RBI in Thursday's win over the Giants.

    Advice: Donovan continued to rake Thursday, posting his fourth three-hit game of the campaign and his third multi-hit performance in his last four contests. The outfielder's two-run blast in the first inning gave the Cardinals an early 3-0 lead, while his two-out, RBI single in the fifth added what would prove to be a pivotal insurance run. Donovan is up to seven long balls on the season, with three coming this month and two coming over his last three games. He's batting .299 in June with 11 RBI and seven runs scored.
