  • Starts at first base, bats third
    Miranda will start at first base and bat third in Tuesday's game against the Yankees.

    Advice: Miranda has been the Twins' primary third baseman for the last few weeks, but that position will be unavailable most days now with Royce Lewis back from the injured list. However, it would appear to be a good sign for Miranda that he remains in the lineup in a prominent spot with Lewis back in the fold. Miranda has an .883 OPS with four home runs over his last 50 plate appearances. Rotowire.com 29 minutes ago
     
  • Marlins reinstate Bethancourt from bereavement list
    Marlins reinstated C Christian Bethancourt from the bereavement list.

    Advice: Bethancourt was away from the time since Saturday while dealing with a personal matter. The Marlins optioned Jhonny Pereda back to Triple-A Jacksonville to clear space on the roster. Rotoworld 30 minutes ago
     
  • Idle Tuesday
    Wells is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Minnesota.

    Advice: Wells won't start Tuesday's game despite the Twins trotting out a right-handed pitcher. Instead, Jose Trevino will catch and bat eighth. Rotowire.com 31 minutes ago
     
  • Vladdy Jr. playing third base again Tuesday
    Vladimir Guerrero Jr. is hitting third and playing third base Tuesday against the Orioles.

    Advice: That will make two of three games that Guerrero Jr. is playing third base. The infielder has been swinging the bat better as of late, and Toronto is giving him a chance to handle the hot corner. Justin Turner is playing first base and Daniel Vogelbach will operate as the designated hitter while hitting fourth. Rotoworld 32 minutes ago
     
  • Absent from lineup
    Jeffers is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Yankees.

    Advice: It looks to be a routine day off for Jeffers, who is just two off his career high with 12 home runs this season. Christian Vazquez will do the catching for Bailey Ober on Tuesday. Rotowire.com 32 minutes ago
     
  • Won't face lefty
    McNeil is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting McNeil will once again give way to Jose Iglesias at second base with a left-handed pitcher (DJ Herz) on the mound for the opposition. Iglesias will bat eighth in place of McNeil, who should continue to see the bulk of the playing time at the keystone when the Mets oppose right-handers. Rotowire.com 34 minutes ago

  • Tyler O’Neill (knee) could be activated Wednesday
    Tyler O’Neill (knee) will start a rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Worcester.

    Advice: If that game goes well, Red Sox manager Alex Cora told reporters that O’Neill could be activated off the injured list prior to Wednesday’s game against Atlanta. There’s also a chance they could wait one more day if they feel the outfielder needs a little more time, but either way, the activation is close. It’d be a significant return for the Red Sox, especially after Wilyer Abreu was placed on the injured list with his ankle sprain. Fantasy managers who roster O’Neill should be ready to bring him back up. Rotoworld 38 minutes ago

  • Playing in rehab game Tuesday
    O'Neill (knee) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.

    Advice: The Red Sox remain optimistic that O'Neill will be ready for activation when first eligible Wednesday, but they've decided to give him a rehab game first. O'Neill has been out since late May due to right knee inflammation. Rotowire.com 39 minutes ago

  • Sitting again
    Kiermaier is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles.

    Advice: Kiermier isn't starting for the third time in the last four games despite the Blue Jays facing a right-handed pitcher. Daulton Varsho will slide to center field Tuesday, while Davis Schneider and George Springer fill the corners. Rotowire.com 39 minutes ago
