    • 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 4 minutes ago
       
    • On bench versus lefty
      Smith is not in the starting lineup Saturday versus the Yankees, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

      Advice: Smith will take a seat as the Red Sox face left-hander Carlos Rodon on the mound. Bobby Dalbec will draw the start at first base and bat eighth against New York. Rotowire.com 7 minutes ago
       
    • Cut by Angels
      Adrianza (back) was released by the Angels on Saturday.

      Advice: Adrianza has been out since early May with back spasms and he'll now have to prove his health prior to being signed by a new team down the road. In a corresponding move, the Angels selected the contract of Jose Marte from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday. Rotowire.com 12 minutes ago
       
    • Angels release infielder Ehire Adrianza

    • Inks minors deal with Nationals
      The Nationals signed Ramirez to a minor-league contract, MMark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

      Advice: Ramirez was released by the Rays earlier this week after hitting just .268/.284/.305 in 48 games. The 29-year-old is a career .287/.325/.408 hitter and has slashed .322/.357/.445 against left-handed pitching. Ramirez will report to Triple-A Rochester for now but is a good bet to be added to the Nationals' roster sooner rather than later, especially with Joey Gallo (hamstring) expected to miss significant time.

    • 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

    • Absent from lineup
      Lopez is not in the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Nationals.

      Advice: Lopez has been operating as the Marlins' primary second baseman, but his production has slowed in June with just a .477 OPS. He'll get a day off to regroup while Vidal Brujan handles the keystone. Rotowire.com Today, 10:58 am

    • Nationals ink Harold Ramírez to minor league pact
      Nationals signed OF Harold Ramírez to a minor league contract.

      Advice: It certainly didn’t take long for Ramírez to find a new opportunity after being released earlier this week by the Rays. However, it’s a bit surprising that he was forced to settle for a minor league deal. The 29-year-old corner outfielder boasts a solid .287/.325/.408 triple-slash line with 37 homers and 18 steals in 511 games in the majors since 2019. He’s batted .300 with 19 homers and 13 steals over the last three season for Tampa Bay and represents a solid depth addition for the rebuilding Nationals. It wouldn’t be surprising to see him in Washington very soon. Rotoworld Today, 10:58 am
       
    • On bench Saturday
      Calhoun is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's contest against the Giants, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

      Advice: Calhoun will remain on the bench for a third game in a row Saturday. Taylor Ward will draw another start at designated hitter while Kevin Pillar enters the lineup in left field and bats fourth versus San Francisco. Rotowire.com Today, 10:49 am
