    • Checking back into starting nine
      Hamilton (side) will start at shortstop and bat second in Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

      Advice: Hamilton is back in the lineup after he was withheld from the starting nine Tuesday due to the left side injury he suffered in Monday's 7-3 win in the series opener. Despite opening Tuesday's 4-3 victory on the bench, Hamilton still made an impact with his legs, entering the game as a pinch runner in the eighth inning and contributing a stolen base and a run. With Hamilton checking out fine following his brief cameo Wednesday, he'll get the green light to start the series finale and will occupy a prominent spot in the batting order.

    • David Hamilton (side) returns to lineup Wednesday
      David Hamilton (side) returned to the Red Sox’ starting lineup for Wednesday’s matchup against the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Hamilton left Monday’s game with discomfort in his left side, but he was able to appear as a pinch-runner in Tuesday’s game — swiping a pair of bases and scoring a run late in the game. He’s starting at shortstop and batting second against Kevin Gausman and the Jays on Wednesday evening in Toronto. Rotoworld Wednesday, 1:22 pm
       
    • Trea Turner gets scheduled rest versus Padres
      The Phillies said Trea Turner is getting a planned day off Wednesday after starting his first two games back from the IL.

      Advice: That’s as expected, but the confirmation is nice. Edmundo Sosa is playing shortstop for the Phillies today. Rotoworld Wednesday, 9:46 am
       
    • Getting rest Wednesday
      Turner is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres.

      Advice: Turner's absence for Wednesday's day game is likely part of a predetermined maintenance plan for the veteran shortstop, who returned from a six-week stay on the 10-day injured list Monday. The 30-year-old exhibited no apparent signs of being nagged by his left hamstring while starting Monday and Tuesday and going 3-for-10 with a run scored between those contests. Edmundo Sosa will spell Turner at shortstop in the series finale versus San Diego. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 7:45 am
       
    • Trea Turner takes seat Wednesday
      After starting at shortstop in his first two games back from the IL, Trea Turner is out of the lineup for Wednesday’s matinee.

      Advice: No official word yet, but this is probably a planned day off for Turner after he returned from his hamstring strain without a rehab assignment. He went 4-for-7 the last two days. Edmundo Sosa is playing shortstop today. Rotoworld Wednesday, 7:29 am
       
    • Enters as pinch runner
      Hamilton (side) entered Tuesday's game as a pinch runner, stole a base and scored a run in a 4-3 come-from-behind win over the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Hamilton was held out of the starting lineup after exiting Monday's game with discomfort in his side. He eventually entered as a pinch runner in the eighth inning and scored the game-winning run after stealing his 19th bag of the season (fifth in MLB). Ten of those 19 steals have come in the last 11 games. Boston manager Alex Cora told Ian Browne of MLB.com there's a good chance Hamilton will return to the starting lineup for Wednesday's series finale. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 5:58 am
       
    • Trea Turner tallies two hits on Monday in return
      Trea Turner went 2-for-5 with a run scored on Monday in his return to the Phillies lineup.

      Advice: Turner made an instant impact on Monday in his return to Philadelphia’s lineup following a six-week absence recovering from a left hamstring strain. The 30-year-old speedster’s stolen base totals may take a temporary hit as the Phillies keep a bit of a governor on his running for now, but his return is a much-needed lift for fantasy managers as injuries continue to pile up league-wide.

    • Dodgers expect Betts (hand) to miss 6-8 weeks
      The Dodgers’ current guess is that Mookie Betts will miss 6-8 weeks with a fractured left hand.

      Advice: Sounds about right. The Dodgers will mostly go with Miguel Rojas at shortstop for now; manager Dave Roberts said he’d start three of the four games in Colorado this week. Enrique Hernández figures to get the nod in the other. Rotoworld Monday, 5:23 pm

    • Likely to miss 6-to-8 weeks
      Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Monday that the expectation is Betts (wrist) will be sidelined 6-to-8 weeks, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: The timeline is a rough estimate, as Roberts noted that much will depend on how Betts' fractured left wrist heals in the coming weeks. If Roberts' suggested timetable holds true, that means Betts will be out at least until late July. Miguel Rojas is expected to be the Dodgers' regular shortstop while Betts is on the shelf.
