  • David Fry leaves game Sunday with possible injury
    David Fry made an early exit from Sunday’s game against the Blue Jays with a potential injury.

    Advice: MLB.com’s Henry Palattella adds that Fry was apparently struck in the head by a practice swing from Danny Jansen in the opening frame, so it’s highly likely he’s been lifted from the contest for precautinary reasons to undergo testing for a possible concussion. There should be an update on his status shortly. Rotoworld Sunday, 11:34 am

  • Sitting down Sunday
    Flores isn't in the Giants' lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Advice: Flores will sit for a second consecutive game Sunday after going 2-for-15 with a double and an RBI over his last five contests. Trenton Brooks will instead start at first base and bat eighth during the series finale. Rotowire.com Sunday, 9:08 am

  • Keeps rolling Saturday
    Soderstrom went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a loss to the Twins on Saturday.

    Advice: Soderstrom squared up on a Bailey Ober offering in the second and sent it 419 feet to center for the Athletics' second and final run of the afternoon. The rookie has slugged five of his first six big-league homers in the last 12 games, a stretch where he's boasting a stellar 1.117 OPS and has averaged exactly one RBI per contest.

  • Big day in rout
    Harper went 4-for-5 with a home run, two runs scored and three RBI in Saturday's 12-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: The 31-year-old superstar launched back-to-back homers with Alec Bohm in the third inning, accounting for half of the Phillies' long balls in the contest. Harper is having one of his patented hot streaks -- he's hit safely in 12 of the last 13 games, slashing .404/.475/.731 over that stretch with five doubles, four homers, seven RBI and 12 runs, chipping in a steal for good measure.

  • Healthy, but still on assignment
    Angels manager Ron Washington said Saturday that Sano (knee) has been medically cleared to return from the 10-day injured list but will remain on assignment with Triple-A Salt Lake for the time being, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports. "We don't have a place for him [on the active roster] right now," Washington said.

    Advice: Sano's poor performance during his rehab assignment may be a factor in the Angels' decision to delay his activation, as he's gone 4-for-27 with two walks and 12 strikeouts in seven games since moving up to Salt Lake on June 14 after five games in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League. The Angels should eventually have a spot for Sano if he can find more success at Triple-A, but he won't necessarily be stepping back into an everyday role once activated.

  • Idle Saturday
    Drury (illness) is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Dodgers.

    Advice: Drury had been scratched from the starting lineup on back-to-back nights, but he won't be listed as a starter for Saturday's series finale due to illness. He'll have a team day off Sunday to recover before Monday's matchup with Oakland. Luis Guillorme will play second base and bat ninth Saturday. Rotowire.com Saturday, 4:36 pm

  • Brandon Drury remains out of lineup on Saturday
    Brandon Drury (illness) remained out of the Angels’ starting lineup for Saturday night’s battle against the Dodgers.

    Advice: It’s the third straight game that Drury has missed due to illness. With the Angels off on Sunday, he’ll have plenty of time to rest up in time for Monday’s series opener against the Athletics. Luis Guillorme will start in his place at second base and bat ninth against Tyler Glasnow and the Dodgers on Saturday night. Rotoworld Saturday, 4:31 pm

  • Harper blasts 18th home run, has four hits in win
    Bryce Harper went 4-for-5 with a home run, two runs scored and three RBI against the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

    Advice: Harper’s home run was his 18th of the year. He blasted a two-run shot into the second deck in right field off Arizona starter Tommy Henry in the third inning. Harper now has a seven-game hitting streak and three home runs in his last three games. He’s up to .294 with a .951 OPS and 51 RBI on the season. Rotoworld Saturday, 3:53 pm
     
  • Tyler Soderstrom hits solo homer in blowout loss
    Tyler Soderstrom hit a solo homer in a blowout loss to the Twins on Saturday.

    Advice: Even in a blowout loss, Soderstrom was able to impress as he has for the overwhelming majority of June. What was a slash of .182/.308/.318 coming into the month now sits at .250/.353/.480, and the blast was his sixth homer of the season. Soderstrom was a first-round pick for a reason, and he deserves some attention from those who need help at the corner-infield spot. Rotoworld Saturday, 3:43 pm
