    • Josh Rojas homers, reaches four times in victory
      Josh Rojas went 2-for-3 with a homer and three RBI in a win over the Rangers for the Mariners on Saturday.

      Advice: On top of that damage, Rojas also drew two walks. The infielder has been scuffling as of late after a red-hot start to the season, but this was a big day from the 29-year-old. His homer was a solo shot to give Seattle a 5-1 lead, and he singled in two runs in the eighth. Rojas is hitting .263/.336/.395 thus far with four homers and 15 RBI. Rotoworld 31 minutes ago

    • Rehab assignment starting
      Polanco (hamstring) is playing in a rehab game Saturday at High-A Everett, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

      Advice: Polanco will remain at Everett for a few games before continuing his rehab at Triple-A Tacoma. The second baseman has been ramping up over the past week and is feeling good enough to begin playing games Saturday. Polanco is on track for a late June return after straining his right hamstring May 26. Rotowire.com Today, 5:18 pm

    • Colt Keith has four hits, HR in win
      Colt Keith went 4-for-6 with a solo home run in a win over the Astros on Saturday.

      Advice: Keith is now 6-for-9 in the first two games of the series. The home run was his third of the season and accounted for his 20th RBI. While those numbers aren’t anything to write home about, Keith has some legitimate power at the minor league level. After getting hot in May, Keith was banged up in a collision with his own teammate and went cold to start June, but perhaps his bat is heating back up again. Rotoworld Today, 5:17 pm

    • Jorge Polanco (hamstring) begins rehab assignment
      Jorge Polanco (hamstring) will begin a minor league rehab assignment at High-A Everett on Saturday.

      Advice: The 30-year-old second baseman is only expected to need a couple of games to get his timing back before he’s cleared to return to the Mariners’ lineup. Expect him back early next week, which will severely impact the playing time for Ryan Bliss, who has been filling in at second base over the past few weeks. Rotoworld Today, 4:30 pm

    • Resumes playing field
      Drury (hamstring) played second base in a rehab game with Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

      Advice: This was Drury's fourth rehab game, but he had served as the designated hitter in each of the previous three contests. The veteran infielder is working his way back from a left hamstring injury that has kept him from competing for the Angels since May 8. Drury has gone 5-for-13 with three walks and an RBI in his rehab stint thus far and appears very close to rejoining the big-league club. Rotowire.com Today, 3:28 pm

      Lopez is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: The White Sox will turn to Danny Mendick at second base Saturday with southpaw Tommy Henry expected to pitch in bulk relief for Arizona. Lopez is batting .244 with a pair of RBI over 10 games in June. Rotowire.com Today, 3:15 pm

    • Idle versus left-hander
      Valdez will sit Saturday versus the Yankees, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

      Advice: Valdez will take a seat as the Red Sox face left-hander Carlos Rodon. Jamie Westbrook will enter the lineup at second base, batting seventh against New York. Rotowire.com Today, 12:35 pm
       
    • Sitting versus southpaw
      Hamilton is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's matchup with the Yankees, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

      Advice: Hamilton will get a breather as Boston squares off with southpaw Carlos Rodon on the mound. The 26-year-old saw his five-game hit streak come to an end Friday, but he's still batting .308 with two home runs, five RBI, six runs scored and five stolen bases over his last nine games. Ceddanne Rafaela will draw the start at shortstop and bat ninth against New York. Rotowire.com Today, 12:32 pm
       
    • José Caballero (illness) not in Saturday’s lineup
      José Caballero (illness) is not in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Braves.

      Advice: Caballero will get an extra day off to rest and recover following an early exit from Friday’s showdown due to illness. It’ll be Amed Rosario taking a turn at shortstop on Saturday afternoon in his absence. Rotoworld Today, 11:04 am
