  • Nick Gordon out against southpaw Sunday
    Nick Gordon is not in the lineup for the Marlins on Sunday against the Mets.

    Advice: The Marlins are loading up with right-handed bats against Sean Manaea, so Gordon and Jesus Sanchez are getting the day off. Dane Myers is starting in right field while Emmanuel Rivera also enters the lineup as the third baseman. Rotoworld 15 minutes ago

  • Out of lineup Sunday
    Cabrera is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

    Advice: The third-year major leaguer will start from the dugout in the second straight game as the Yankees close out their series with Chicago. Jon Berti will get the start at third base and bat ninth in place of Cabrera. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago

  • Heads to bench Sunday
    Gorman is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

    Advice: Gorman has homered in back-to-back games, but the strikeouts are piling up. He's struck out 10 times in his last 16 at-bats, bringing his K-rate to 35 percent through 157 plate appearances this season. Brendan Donovan will start at second base Sunday as Alec Burleson takes over in left field and Matt Carpenter starts at DH. Rotowire.com 24 minutes ago

  • Oswaldo Cabrera taking seat Sunday vs. White Sox
    Oswaldo Cabrera is not in the starting lineup Sunday against the White Sox.

    Advice: Cabrera, 25, also sat out Saturday after going 0-for-4 Friday. The infielder will be a bench option with Jon Berti hitting ninth and manning the hot corner for the series finale. Austin Wells also is on the bench Sunday with Jose Trevino lined up as the starting backstop. Rotoworld 31 minutes ago

  • Extends hitting streak to 17 games
    Marte went 1-for-4 with an RBI triple and a run scored in Saturday's loss to the Tigers.

    Advice: Marte went down on strikes in each of his first two at-bats before driving in the first run of the game with a one-out triple in the bottom of the sixth. He would come home to score as well on a Joc Pederson single in the following at-bat, though the effort would fall short as Detroit stormed back in the seventh to take the lead. The triple was Marte's second of the season and extended his hitting streak to 17 games. However, he's recorded only one multi-hit game over that stretch and is batting just .246 in May with four homers, 10 RBI and seven runs scored. Rotowire.com 58 minutes ago
     
  • Two more weeks for return
    Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said Perdomo (knee) should return from the injured list in a couple of weeks, Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports reports.

    Advice: Perdomo took grounders and batting practice at Chase Field on Saturday in what looked like a typical pre-game routine. That prompted Lovullo to echo the two-week time frame estimated by the injured shortstop last Wednesday. Perdomo, who is working his way back from a right meniscus tear, has not yet run at full speed nor performed quick adjustments or turns. Rotowire.com Today, 5:53 am

  • Triples twice, drives in four
    Perez went 2-for-4 with two triples, a run scored and four RBI in Saturday's 8-3 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Perez batted third and continued his strong start to the season, as he boosted his batting average to an even .300 and his OPS to .906. The versatile 24-year-old has settled in as the team's primary center fielder with Parker Meadows demoted to the minors. Perez should hold onto fantasy value as long as he's seeing regular playing time and swinging a hot bat. Rotowire.com Today, 5:49 am
     
  • Provides offense Saturday
    Morel went 1-for-3 with an RBI in Saturday's 1-0 win over the Pirates.

    Advice: Morel's line drive to center in the bottom of the ninth inning brought in Cody Bellinger with the game-winning run. It was a nice effort for Morel, who's been productive this month despite batting just .220 in May. The production has come mostly in the power department, as the 24-year-old has five home runs this month across 17 games. Morel came into May with only four long balls over his first 29 contests.

  • Spencer Steer goes 0-for-3 in loss to Dodgers
    Spencer Steer went 0-for-3 with a strikeout on Saturday in the Reds’ shutout loss at the hands of the Dodgers.

    Advice: It’s probably too early to panic, but Steer is batting just .165 (18-for-109) with one homer and eight steals over his last 30 games. The 26-year-old’s plate skills remain solid and his underlying Statcast batted ball metrics point to some regression on the way. Rotoworld Today, 3:48 am
