  • Luis Rengifo (illness) not in lineup again Tuesday
    Luis Rengifo (illness) remains absent from the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Phillies.

    Advice: Rengifo remains out of the lineup for the fourth consecutive contest due to illness. The versatile 27-year-old remains day-to-day for the moment. It’ll be Brandon Drury at the keystone and Cole Tucker at the hot corner once again on Tuesday night. Rotoworld 1 minute ago

  • Idle Tuesday
    Arraez is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Chicago.

    Advice: After starting and batting leadoff in each of his first three appearances with the Padres, Arraez will get the day off Tuesday. While it's possible Arraez could cede work against lefties -- the Padres are facing southpaw Shota Imanaga Tuesday -- Arraez was part of the team's lineup Monday against Justin Steele, who's also left-handed. Manny Machado will DH Tuesday while Donovan Solano starts at third base. Rotowire.com 1 minute ago

  • Alek Thomas to undergo MRI on left hamstring
    Alek Thomas will undergo an MRI after experiencing renewed left hamstring discomfort.

    Advice: Thomas hasn’t felt right since Sunday’s rehab game with Triple-A Reno and will undergo some additional testing to determine the extent of the issue. The 24-year-old outfielder has been on the shelf since early April recovering from a left hamstring strain. There should be an update on his status at some point later this week, if not sooner.

  • On bench Tuesday
    Wong is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Atlanta, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

    Advice: It's the second straight game on the bench for Wong, which is surprising given he's been one of the most productive catchers in baseball with a .950 OPS. Reese McGuire went 2-for-4 with a double and stolen base Sunday and is making his second consecutive start behind the plate Tuesday. Rotowire.com 4 minutes ago
     
  • Sliding back to setup role
    Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Tuesday that Ginkel will go back to a setup role upon the return of Paul Sewald (oblique), Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

    Advice: Lovullo wants to throw Sewald back into the closer role immediately, saying that if a save opportunity should arise Tuesday, it would go to Sewald. Ginkel filled in admirably as the temporary closer, going 5-for-7 in save chances while posting a 2.57 ERA and 14:3 K:BB over 14 innings. Certainly, it's a major hit to his fantasy value as he shifts back to being a setup man. Rotowire.com 5 minutes ago
     
  • Jeimer Candelario returns to lineup on Tuesday
    Jeimer Candelario (shin) has returned to the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Candelario is back for Tuesday’s series opener at Great American Ball Park following a one-game absence due to a left shin contusion. It doesn’t sound like a serious concern moving forward. Rotoworld 7 minutes ago
     
  • Darell Hernaiz leaves game Tuesday with injury
    Darell Hernaiz made an early exit from Tuesday’s game against the Rangers with an apparent leg injury.

    Advice: Hernaiz stepped awkwardly on first base while attempting to beat out an infield hit during Tuesday’s one-sided affair against the Rangers and was immediately lifted from the contest. There should be an update on his status shortly. Rotoworld 12 minutes ago

  • Early exit with injury
    Hernaiz was pinch-run for and limped off the field after stepping awkwardly on first base Tuesday against Texas, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Hernaiz's day will be done after sustaining what appeared to be a lower left leg injury trying to beat out an infield hit in the second inning. While he managed to beat the throw, Hernaiz was replaced by Max Schuemann and won't return to Tuesday's contest. The A's have a double-header with the Rangers on Wednesday then will have a day off before a three-game set against the Mariners. Rotowire.com 12 minutes ago

  • Not in Tuesday's lineup
    Mateo is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game at Washington, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Advice: Mateo started the previous four games and will head to the bench after going 3-for-14 with two homers. Jordan Westburg will shift to the keystone while Ramon Urias starts at third base. Rotowire.com 16 minutes ago
