  • Set for MLB debut
    Amador will be recalled from Double-A Hartford on Sunday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: With Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) on his way to the 10-day injured list, Amador will get his first crack at big-league action. The 21-year-old hasn't made it past Double-A yet and although he owns a .194 batting average this season at Hartford, Amador is 14-for-39 (.359) with six home runs and six stolen bases in his last nine games. He figures to share playing time with Alan Trejo at second base. Rotowire.com Today, 4:44 pm

  • Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) heading to 10-day IL
    Rockies’ manager Bud Black told reporters after Saturday’s game that Brendan Rodgers (hamstring) would be placed on the 10-day injured list prior to Sunday’s series finale against the Cardinals.

    Advice: Black also confirmed what Francys Romero had reported earlier, that Adael Amador would be recalled from Double-A Hartford to take his place on the active roster. It’s a tough break for the Rockies, as Rodgers had been swinging a hot bat and had been extremely productive over the past few weeks. No word yet on just how long they expect Rodgers to be sidelined for. Rotoworld Today, 4:40 pm
     
  • To hit injured list
    Rodgers (left hamstring strain) will be placed on the 10-day injured list, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Rodgers was removed from Friday's game against the Cardinals after he had his hamstring tightened up while running out a hit. Further evaluation revealed that the second baseman has a strain in his left hamstring and will need an IL stint. Infielder Adael Amador will be called up from Double-A Hartford to fill Rodgers' spot on the active roster and should share second base duties with Alan Trejo. Rotowire.com Today, 4:35 pm
     
  • Homers, scores twice
    Frazier went 2-for-2 with a home run, a double and two runs scored in Saturday's win over the Mariners.

    Advice: The utility player got extra-base hits in both of his at-bats Saturday, homering in the second and then hitting a leadoff double in the fifth. He was later pulled for pinch hitter Hunter Renfroe in the sixth after the Mariners brought in lefty Kirby Snead. It was Frazier's first multi-hit effort since May 25 and just his second homer of the year. He's been stuck in a part-time role for the most part this season and his line of .227/.322/.320 leaves room for improvement. Rotowire.com Today, 4:22 pm

  • Adam Frazier doubles and homers in win
    Adam Frazier doubled and homered while helping the Royals to an 8-4 win over the Mariners on Saturday.

    Advice: Frazier hit just his second homer of the year when he took Luis Castillo deep in the second inning. His double also came off Castillo and he came around to score on an RBI single off the bat of Nick Loftin. A nice day for Frazier, but there haven’t been many of them as seen in a slash of .227/.322/.320. Rotoworld Today, 3:34 pm

  • Colt Keith exits Saturday with left knee discomfort
    The Tigers announced that Colt Keith was pulled from Saturday’s game against the Brewers due to left knee discomfort.

    Advice: The rookie second baseman collided with outfielder Akil Baddoo while both were chasing a pop up into shallow right field. It sounds like he was fortunate to have avoided any serious injury, but he may end up needing a day or two before he’s ready to return to the Tigers’ lineup. Rotoworld Today, 3:13 pm

  • Resting against southpaw
    Lux isn't in the Dodgers' lineup Saturday against the Yankees.

    Advice: Lux will take a seat as southpaw Nestor Cortes prepares to start on the mound for New York. Miguel Rojas will fill in at the keystone and bat seventh. Rotowire.com Today, 2:50 pm

  • Dealing with knee soreness
    Keith was removed from Saturday's game against Milwaukee with left knee discomfort, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Keith and Akil Baddoo collided in right field while running at full speed, but Keith took the brunt of it and was removed from the contest during the third inning. Considering Keith was able to walk off the field without any assistance, it seems like he avoided a major injury. Still, the Tigers will likely continue to evaluate him throughout Saturday evening. Detroit will finish its three-game series against the Brewers on Sunday ahead of a team off day. Rotowire.com Today, 2:41 pm
