  • Kody Clemens (back) scratched from lineup Sunday
    Kody Clemens was scratched from the Phillies’ starting lineup for Sunday night’s battle against the Cardinals due to back spasms.

    Advice: Whit Merrifield will replace Clemens at second base against right-hander Lance Lynn and the Cardinals. Clemens should be considered day-to-day and is likely to return to the Phillies’ starting lineup early next week. Rotoworld 18 minutes ago

  • Luis Arraez exits game Sunday with apparent injury
    Luis Arraez was removed from Sunday afternoon’s game against the Royals due to an apparent injury.

    Advice: Arraez was thrown out at second base attempting to stretch a single into a double in the top half of the fifth inning. He remained in the game for another inning defensively, but was ultimately replaced by Tyler Wade when the Padres took the field in the sixth inning. It looked like he may have done something to his right arm, but it’s difficult to speculate. Expect the Padres to provide an update on his status shortly. Rotoworld Today, 1:03 pm
     
  • Brendan Donovan (neck) remains out vs. Phillies

    Advice: Donovan will miss another game after being scratched from Friday’s lineup with stiffness in his neck. Masyn Winn remains in the leadoff spot, and Alec Burleson gets the start in left field. Rotoworld Today, 12:56 pm

  • Starting, but playing time falling
    Goodman will start in left field and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

    Advice: Goodman concluded last weekend's series versus the Phillies by making his sixth start in eight games, but his playing time has fallen off over the past week. Before drawing back into the lineup Sunday, Goodman started just once in the Rockies' preceding five games. With Kris Bryant settling in primarily at designated hitter and Sean Bouchard and Charlie Blackmon typically serving as Colorado's starters in the corner outfield, Goodman has found himself as the odd man out of late.

  • Sitting again Sunday
    Donovan (neck) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

    Advice: The 27-year-old will be withheld from the starting nine for the third consecutive game due to neck stiffness. According to John Denton of MLB.com, Donovan is expected to take swings in the batting cage Sunday and could be back in action Monday against the Astros. Alec Burleson will start in left field for the series finale while Matt Carpenter receives a turn at designated hitter. Rotowire.com Today, 12:50 pm

  • Taking seat against lefty
    Brooks is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.

    Advice: Though he'll take a seat while southpaw Nestor Cortes takes the hill for the Yankees, the lefty-hitting Brooks appears to have settled in as the strong side option of a platoon at first base with the right-handed-hitting Wilmer Flores. Brooks has started in the Giants' last three matchups with righties and has gone 1-for-6 with two walks and two runs in four games overall since he was called up from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday following LaMonte Wade's (hamstring) placement on the injured list.

  • Absence continuing Sunday
    Schanuel (thumb) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.

    Advice: It's the third straight absence for Schanuel as he manages soreness in his left thumb. Willie Calhoun will receive another start at first base for the Halos. Rotowire.com Today, 12:03 pm
     
  • Out Sunday with finger injury
    Vaughn (finger) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

    Advice: Vaughn will be on the bench for a third game in a row with a sprained left ring finger. The White Sox continue to view Vaughn as day-to-day, and with a team off day Monday, Vaughn could be ready to go for the start of the team's two-game series with the Cubs on Tuesday. Gavin Sheets will fill in at first base for Vaughn on Sunday. Rotowire.com Today, 11:16 am
