    • Gerrit Cole doesn’t expect to land on injured list
      Gerrit Cole told reporters Tuesday that he doesn’t expect to require a trip to the injured list.

      Advice: It’s further confirmation that Cole, who added that he isn’t dealing with an arm issue, isn’t expected to face a lengthy absence after being scratched from Tuesday’s scheduled start against the Phillies due to general body fatigue. Nothing official from the Yankees yet, but the fantasy ace figures to be ready to take the ball again in a couple days, if not sooner. Rotoworld 26 minutes ago
       
    • Scratched from start due to fatigue
      Cole has been scratched from Tuesday's scheduled start in Philadelphia due to general body fatigue, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: If the descriptor of the injury is indeed accurate, Cole's fantasy managers shouldn't be overly worried. If Cole's turn in the rotation is skipped entirely, he would be lined up to pitch next Tuesday against the Angels on what would be 12 days' rest. Will Warren will start for the Yankees on Tuesday in what will be his major-league debut. Rotowire.com 57 minutes ago
       
    • Gerrit Cole (fatigue) scratched from Tueday start
      Gerrit Cole has been scratched from Tuesday’s start against the Phillies with general body fatigue.

      Advice: General body fatigue might be the most relatable injury on the planet. Cole was not good in his last start against the Mets on Wednesday with six earned runs, and the Yankees will give the 33-year-old an extra day or two — to be determined — of rest before putting last year’s Cy Young winner on the mound. Will Warren will make the start in Cole’s absence. Rotoworld Today, 12:44 pm
       
    • Batting second in team debut
      Thomas will start in right field and bat second in Tuesday's game against the Tigers.

      Advice: Thomas will be thrown right into the fire after being acquired via trade from the Nationals on Monday. He should serve as the Guardians' everyday right fielder down the stretch but also offers the flexibility to play some center field, if needed. Rotowire.com Today, 7:48 am
       
    • Lane Thomas hitting second in debut with Guardians
      Lane Thomas is hitting second and playing right field against the Tigers on Tuesday.

      Advice: Thomas is making his debut with Cleveland a day after being traded to the Guardians in a deal with the Nationals. The outfielder has been much more effective against lefties, and Tyler Holton will be on the mound to begin this contest for the Tigers. Thomas offers the potential to help in several fantasy categories and does see his stock go up as a member of the Cleveland lineup. Rotoworld Today, 7:46 am
       
    • Goes deep twice in rout
      Chisholm went 2-for-4 with a pair of home runs, three total RBI and a walk in Monday's 14-4 win against the Phillies.

      Advice: Chisholm made his first career start at third base Monday and excelled at the plate, swatting his first two homers since joining New York via trade Saturday. Though Chisholm started in center field in his first contest with his new club, manager Aaron Boone said Sunday that the veteran could see ample time at third base, which is a big need for the team's offense given DJ LeMahieu's struggles this season. Chisholm has gone 3-for-9 with Monday's two long balls over his first two games as a Yankee. Rotowire.com Today, 12:04 am
       
    • Goes deep in win
      Friedl went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer in Monday's 7-1 win over the Cubs.

      Advice: Friedl blew the game open with a three-run shot in the fifth inning that chased started Jameson Taillon. Friedl has been in and out of the lineup due to injuries, and he just picked up his fifth home run in his 30th game. The 28-year-old just needs to stay healthy, but he can be a solid contributor, hitting at the top of the Reds lineup down the stretch. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:41 pm

    • TJ Friedl crushes three-run homer to defeat Cubs
      TJ Friedl walloped a three-run homer on Monday, sparking the Reds to a 7-1 victory over the Cubs.

      Advice: It’s been an injury-plagued season for Friedl so far, but his power/speed combination has been on display (when healthy) as he’s up to five homers and six steals in just 30 games. The 28-year-old outfielder delivered a pivotal fifth-inning homer off Cubs starter Jameson Taillon to give Cincinnati some additional breathing room. He’s gone 2-for-13 in four games since returning last week from a one-month stint on the injured list. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:03 pm

    • Jazz Chisholm Jr. homers twice against Phillies
      Jazz Chisholm Jr. went 2-for-4 with two homers and three RBI on Monday in the Yankees’ blowout win over the Phillies.

      Advice: Chisholm is making quite the first impression in New York as he looked capable in a couple chances at the hot corner in his professional debut there, and also injected some life into New York’s lineup with his first multi-homer effort of the season, in just his second game in Pinstripes. He kicked things off with a second-inning solo shot off Phillies ace Zack Wheeler before taking backup catcher Garrett Stubbs deep for a two-run blast in the ninth inning. As we’ve been saying for decades now, garbage time homers count just as much for fantasy purposes. The dynamic 26-year-old speedster is up to 15 big flies this season and appears poised for a strong final two months as part of New York’s formidable lineup. It feels like only a matter of time before he’s moved up to the leadoff spot, but he’ll presumably continue batting in the middle of the order for now. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:37 pm
