  • Not starting Tuesday
    Alexander is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Reds, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    Advice: Alexander will give up the shortstop spot to Kevin Newman for a second straight game. The pair should continue to split work until Geraldo Perdomo (knee) returns. Rotowire.com Today, 12:32 pm
     
  • Sitting again Tuesday
    Rengifo (illness) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

    Advice: Rengifo hasn't been in the lineup since Friday due to the illness, and his absence will extend to four games Tuesday. Cole Tucker will receive another start at the hot corner for the Halos. Rotowire.com Today, 12:25 pm

  • On bench against ChiSox
    Rosario is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox.

  • Getting day off
    Winn is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

    Advice: It's a day off for Winn, who is just 4-for-28 at the dish over his last eight games. Brandon Crawford will get the start at shortstop for the Cardinals against the Mets' Jose Butto. Rotowire.com Today, 11:26 am
     
  • Taking seat against southpaw
    Cruz is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Angels.

    Advice: The left-handed hitting Cruz was in the lineup each of the previous two times the Pirates faced a southpaw, but he will begin Tuesday's game on the bench as the Angels send lefty Patrick Sandoval to the hill. Alika Williams will occupy shortstop and bat ninth. Rotowire.com Today, 11:00 am

  • Resumes hitting
    Diaz (calf) has resumed taking batting practice but is not yet running the bases, MLB.com reports.

    Advice: The veteran began a light running program in mid-April, but as this latest report indicates, he hasn't progressed to carrying it out fully just yet. The fact Diaz is back to swinging a bat is certainly a positive, however, yet he appears to be at least a month away from his season debut given the expected length of the rehab assignment he'll require.

  • Beginning rehab assignment
    Peraza (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Tampa on Tuesday.

    Advice: Peraza is finally ready to test things out in a game setting after working his way back from a right shoulder strain which he initially suffered back in late February. Given how much time he's missed, he will presumably require more than a handful of rehab games. Peraza also isn't a given to immediately be added to the big-league roster, although the status of DJ LeMahieu (foot) will be a factor. Rotowire.com Today, 9:59 am

  • Goes deep Monday
    Neto went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Monday's loss to Pittsburgh.

    Advice: Batting out of the No. 9 slot in the order, Neto produced the Angels' only run of the game with his sixth-inning solo shot to center field. It was the third homer of the campaign for the shortstop, all of which have come over his past 11 games. Neto was batting just .167 after an 0-for-3 effort April 21, but he's turned things around since, slashing .356/.370/.667 over his past 13 contests. Rotowire.com Today, 9:31 am
