  • 66-81-3 8th Place
    • Mashes 14th homer
      Riley went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, a walk and an additional run scored Sunday against the Mets.

      Advice: Riley entered Sunday's contest mired in a 2-for-21 slump but collected two hits, including his 14th dinger of the season. Riley left the yard for the fifth time this month but still carries a substandard slash line of .254/.323/.452 over 381 plate appearances and remains on pace to finish with fewer than 30 homers for the first time in four seasons.

    • Reynaldo López (forearm) set to undergo MRI exam
      Reynaldo López will undergo an MRI exam to determine the severity of his forearm injury.

      Advice: The 30-year-old right-hander was pulled from Sunday’s start against the Mets after three scoreless innings after experiencing tightness in his right forearm. The Braves were concerned enough that they immediately sent him for imaging to figure out exactly what’s going on there. Fantasy owners in leagues that set weekly lineups should be sure to have a contingency plan in place in the event that López won’t be able to give it a go next week. Rotoworld Today, 2:01 pm
       
    • Austin Riley on base three times, homers in win
      Austin Riley went 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored, two RBI, and a walk in the Braves’ lopsided 9-2 victory over the Mets on Sunday.

      Advice: Riley rudely greeted new Met reliever Ryne Stanek with a towering home run that nearly hit the facing of the second deck in the seventh inning to all but put this game away. Suddenly, Riley has his OPS up to .771 after it sat at a lowly .618 on June 13th. Rotoworld Today, 1:35 pm
       
    • Cubs officially acquire Isaac Paredes from Rays
      Cubs acquired INF Isaac Paredes from the Rays for INF/OF Christopher Morel, RHP Hunter Bigge and RHP Ty Johnson.

      Advice: The 25-year-old slugger returns to the organization where he began his professional career and should add some immediate thump to the middle of a Cubs’ lineup that has been lacking power. Paredes — who is under team control through the 2027 season — has slashed a healthy .247/.355/.438 with 16 homers and 55 RBI on the season. He should function as the team’s everyday third baseman for the foreseeable future. Rotoworld Today, 1:21 pm

    • Sitting out Sunday
      Tellez (back) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at Arizona.

      Advice: The 29-year-old was removed from Friday's contest due to back spasms and will sit Sunday for the second straight game. Connor Joe will receive another start at first base for the Pirates in Tellez's place. Rotowire.com Today, 1:07 pm

    • Sitting again Sunday
      Gelof is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

      Advice: Gelof has a .579 OPS and 32.1 percent strikeout rate over 73 at-bats in July and will sit Sunday for the second consecutive game. Abraham Toro will receive another start at second base Sunday, while Tyler Nevin makes a start at third. Rotowire.com Today, 12:43 pm
       
    • Exits with forearm tightness
      Lopez was removed from Sunday's start against the Mets as a precaution due to right forearm tightness.

      Advice: Lopez threw 57 pitches over three scoreless innings before being lifted from Sunday's contest due to the injury. The right-hander should be considered day-to-day for now, and his availability for the next turn through the rotation is up in the air as he's scheduled to undergo an MRI, per Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

    • Reynaldo López leaves with forearm tightness
      Reynaldo López left Sunday’s start against the Mets with right forearm tightness.

      Advice: López threw three scoreless innings before leaving the game with two strikeouts and three hits allowed. The right-hander’s exit is being deemed precautionary, but obviously this is something fantasy managers have to keep a close eye on. Dylan Lee has replaced López on the mound.

    • Tellez (back) remains out of lineup vs. Padres
      Rowdy Tellez (back) is not in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Padres.

      Advice: Tellez is dealing with back spasms, and the infielder will miss another game with the ailment. Connor Joe will play first base, Andrew McCutchen is the designated hitter and Jack Suwinski gets the start in left field. Consider Tellez day-to-day. Rotoworld Today, 12:09 pm
