  • Tigers option Buddy Kennedy to Triple-A
    Tigers optioned INF Buddy Kennedy to Triple-A Toledo.

    Advice: Kennedy heads down to the minors after the team activated Andy Ibáñez from the injured list. The 25-year-old posted a .808 OPS in his six games played with Detroit where he racked up four RBI this season. Rotoworld Today, 10:47 am

  • Activated from injured list
    The Tigers activated Ibanez (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

    Advice: Ibanez wound up missing a little more than three weeks of action with a strained left hamstring. The utility player should see some starts for the Tigers against left-handed pitching. Rotowire.com Today, 10:45 am

  • Bangs out first career hit
    Barger went 1-for-4 with a run scored in Monday's win over the Royals.

    Advice: Getting the start at third base and batting ninth, Barger collected his first career big-league hit with a single to lead off the sixth inning. The 24-year-old has gone just 1-for-15 with four strikeouts since his promotion while seeing action at third base and both outfield corners, but he has more errors (two) than hits so far with the Blue Jays, and a return to Triple-A in the near future seems likely if he doesn't turn things around quickly.

  • Optioned to Triple-A
    The Tigers optioned Kennedy to Triple-A Toledo on Monday.

    Advice: Kennedy is being sent out to make room for Andy Ibanez (hamstring), who will be activated from the injured list prior to Tuesday's doubleheader versus the Cardinals. He's 2-for-10 with one homer and one stolen base during his brief time with the big club this season. Rotowire.com Today, 6:17 am

  • Covers first base in win
    Candelario started at first base and went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Monday's 5-2 win over the Padres.

    Advice: Candelario filled in at first base for Christian Encarnacion-Strand (hand), who was available off the bench. His second-inning double put an end to an 0-for-19 skid, and he eventually scored on a balk. The slumping corner infielder has spent just two days this season with average of .200 or better.

  • Delivers run in loss
    Suarez went 1-for-4 with an RBI in Monday's 8-4 loss to the Dodgers.

    Advice: Suarez was involved in Arizona's three-run fifth inning, plating a run with a single. His bat has slumbered to start the season (.229 average, .634 OPS), but the third baseman has managed to deliver with runners on base. Suarez is third on the club with 18 RBI, fueled by a .414 average with runners in scoring position. Rotowire.com Today, 4:26 am
     
  • Tyler Nevin goes 2-for-3, hits third home run
    Tyler Nevin went 2-for-3 with a homer against the Pirates in Monday’s win.

    Advice: It was his third homer. Nevin has a nice .301/.350/.452 line in 80 plate appearances for the A’s, but the exit velocity numbers aren’t really there to back it up and he might find himself out of favor once the A’s get healthier; it’s doubtful he would have been claimed in the first place if not for Miguel Andujar’s injury.

  • Belts homer in win
    De La Cruz went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Monday in a 5-2 victory against the Padres.

    Advice: De La Cruz set the Reds on a positive path with his massive 443-foot solo shot to center field in the first inning. The long ball snapped a four game-stretch during which the dynamic young shortstop didn't knock any extra-base hits and went just 1-for-13 at the plate, though he did maintain valuable production with three thefts during that span. De La Cruz has been one of baseball's most impressive performers early in the campaign, slashing .280/.390/.590 with eight home runs, 19 RBI, 26 runs and a league-leading 18 stolen bases through 118 plate appearances.

  • Clubs pair of homers
    Turner went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and a solo home run during Monday's 6-5 win over the Royals.

    Advice: Turner dominated Royals starter Jonathan Bowlan -- who was making his second career start -- notching home runs off him in the first and third innings. The contest doubled Turner's 2024 home run total and was his first multi-homer game since June of 2023. Through 28 games, Turner is slashing .311/.390/.533 with 15 RBI and 15 runs scored.
