  • Checks out of starting nine
    Moore is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: After starting each of the past four games at shortstop while producing three hits and adding two stolen bases and one run over 12 at-bats, Moore will give way to Leonardo Rivas in the series finale. Moore should still see the bulk of the starts at shortstop for the duration of J.P. Crawford's (oblique) stay on the injured list. Rotowire.com Today, 11:37 am

  • Rests against lefty

  • Takes seat Sunday
    Alexander is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.

    Advice: Alexander has gone 9-for-24 with five doubles, a homer, nine RBI and four runs over his past seven games, but he'll head to the bench Sunday. Kevin Newman will start at shortstop in the series finale at Seattle. Rotowire.com Today, 11:21 am
     
  • Out of lineup Sunday
    Rodgers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros in Mexico City.

  • Streak of 11 straight starts ends
    Espinal is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

    Advice: Thanks to both Jonathan Indian and Jake Fraley recently missing multiple games due to illness, Espinal has held down a regular spot in the Cincinnati infield. He started each of the last 11 games, going 7-for-34 (.206 average) with a home run and a stolen base. Now that India and Fraley are both back to full strength, Espinal is expected to move into more of a part-time role. Rotowire.com Today, 10:50 am
     
  • Out of Sunday's lineup
    Caballero is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Advice: Caballero will head to the bench Sunday after he posted a .217/.250/.370 slash line and 26.5 percent strikeout rate while starting the previous 12 games. Amed Rosario will shift to shortstop and bat third. Rotowire.com Today, 9:39 am
     
  • On bench against lefty
    Gordon is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Gordon will stay on the bench for the second game in a row while the Marlins face another southpaw (Patrick Corbin) on Sunday. Bryan De La Cruz will step in for Gordon in left field and will bat second. Rotowire.com Today, 9:30 am

  • Draws third straight start
    Brujan will start at third base and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: Brujan will make his third consecutive start at third base and appears set to get an extended look at the position while Jake Burger (oblique) is on the injured list. Over 33 plate appearances this season, Brujan has hit .200 with zero home runs or stolen bases, one RBI and three runs. His fantasy appeal could remain largely limited to NL-only leagues for the duration of Burger's absence. Rotowire.com Today, 9:28 am
     
  • Moves to bench Sunday
    Garcia is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

    Advice: With southpaw Ryan Weathers on the hill for Miami, the lefty-hitting Garcia will hit the bench for the first time since April 14 while Ildemaro Vargas steps in at second base. While manning the keystone for each of the last 11 games, Garcia went 11-for-42 (.262 average) with one home run, four stolen bases, five RBI and one run. Rotowire.com Today, 9:02 am
