    • Jarren Duran homers, steals two bags
      Jarren Duran went 2-for-5 with a home run, two RBI, and two stolen bases against the Blue Jays on Wednesday.

      Advice: Duran’s long ball gave the Red Sox a lead and they wouldn’t let go as he continued his do-it-all season in this one. He’s pacing for about 15 homers, 40 steals, 100 runs scored, and 70 RBI in what would be a phenomenal year for the young outfielder. Rotoworld Wednesday, 7:11 pm
       
    • Charlie Blackmon (hamstring) held out on Wednesday
      Charlie Blackmon (hamstring) was held out of the Rockies’ starting lineup on Wednesday.

      Advice: Blackmon was pulled from Tuesday’s devastating loss to the Dodgers due to tightness in his right hamstring. It sounds like he’ll need at least a couple of days until he’s ready to return. Elehuris Montero will function as the team’s designated hitter and will bat eighth against Bobby Miller and the Dodgers on Wednesday evening at Coors Field. Rotoworld Wednesday, 1:26 pm
       
    • Sitting out Wednesday
      Blackmon (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette reports.

      Advice: Blackmon exited Tuesday's 11-9 loss with right hamstring tightness and is considered day-to-day. With Blackmon on the bench Wednesday, Jake Cave will start in right field and Elehuris Montero will serve as the Rockies' designated hitter. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 1:16 pm
       
    • Logs three hits in loss
      Brennan went 3-for-5 with one RBI and one run scored in Tuesday's 8-5 loss to the Mariners.

      Advice: Brennan has three multi-hit efforts over his last four games. The outfielder has been limited to a strong-side platoon role this season, though he's been little more than average for much of the year. He's at a .249/.306/.386 slash line with six home runs, 22 RBI, 24 runs scored and three stolen bases through 62 contests. Brennan is likely to share right field with Johnathan Rodriguez for now, as David Fry should settle in as the Guardians' main designated hitter following Kyle Manzardo's demotion to Triple-A Columbus earlier Tuesday.

    • Will Brennan has three hits in loss
      Will Brennan went 3-for-5 with a run and an RBI in a loss to the Mariners on Tuesday.

      Advice: Brennan is playing against all right-handed pitchers and is now 12-for-37 (.324) in 12 games in June. He has six home runs and three steals on the season, so he doesn’t bring tons of fantasy value to the table, but his consistent spot in the middle of the Guardians’ lineup gives him some value in deeper formats.

    • Battling hamstring tightness
      Blackmon exited Tuesday's game against the Dodgers due to right hamstring tightness, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

      Advice: Blackmon was seen grabbing at his hamstring while running into third base during the first inning of Tuesday's game, and he eventually had to come out of the game during the second frame. The Rockies have not offered any information regarding the severity of the 37-year-old's injury, but it's possible he sits out at least a game or two to avoid playing with any lingering soreness.

    • Charlie Blackmon leaves game with hamstring injury
      Charlie Blackmon was removed from Tuesday’s game against the Dodgers with right hamstring tightness.

      Advice: Blackmon was lifted for a pinch-hitter after going first-to-third and scoring a run in the opening frame. The 37-year-old veteran will head for some additional evaluation and testing to determine the severity of the issue. It’s within the realm of possibility he could wind up requiring a trip to the injured list. Rotoworld Tuesday, 6:41 pm
       
    • Sitting against lefty
      Melendez isn't in the Royals' lineup for Tuesday's game versus Oakland.

      Advice: The A's will send Hogan Harris to the mound to begin Tuesday's contest, so the left-handed bat of Melendez will remain on the bench to begin the game. Garrett Hampson will fill the opening in left field while batting eighth. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:40 pm

    • Reaches three times in loss
      Greene went 1-for-2 with two walks and an RBI in Monday's 2-1 loss to Atlanta.

      Advice: Greene didn't get much support from the rest of the lineup but it was still a good day for the young outfielder. He's been locked in this month with a .305 batting average across 15 games, and that's pushed his overall average to .254. Greene is a dynamic talent who can really take off if he keeps making consistent contact at the plate like he's done recently. Rotowire.com Monday, 7:22 pm
