  • Phillies transfer Dylan Covey to 60-day IL
    Phillies transferred RHP Dylan Covey to the 60-day injured list.

  • Andrew Vaughn dealing with sprained left finger
    Andrew Vaughn is not in Saturday’s lineup due to a sprained left ring finger.

    Advice: Vaughn will miss his second straight contest on Saturday due to an injury that he suffered earlier this week while sliding into third base. The hope is that he’ll avoid a trip to the injured list and be ready to return to Chicago’s lineup at some point early next week. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now.

  • Remains out Saturday
    Canha (hip) is not in the starting lineup Saturday versus the Red Sox, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Advice: Canha was a late scratch from Friday's lineup due to left hip soreness and he'll be forced to sit out again Saturday. Colt Keith will slot in at designated hitter while Zach McKinstry enters the lineup at second base and bats seventh against Boston. Rotowire.com Today, 10:33 am

    Brendan Donovan (neck) remains absent from the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Phillies.

    Advice: Donovan remains out after being scratched from Friday’s lineup due to neck stiffness. It’ll be rookie Masyn Winn, who has recorded at least one hit in 18 straight games that he’s started since May 6, taking over atop St. Louis’ lineup in his absence. Rotoworld Today, 9:48 am

  • Sitting Saturday
    Vaughn is not in the starting lineup Saturday versus the Brewers.

  • Roughed up in no-decision
    Myers did not factor into the decision in Friday's 12-5 win over the White Sox, allowing five runs on seven hits and one walk over 4.1 innings. He struck out four.

    Advice: Myers entered this start on a hot streak, firing a 1.93 ERA and 12:4 K:BB over 9.1 innings in his last three outings, but struggled against a weak White Sox lineup. He allowed just one homer -- a 417-foot solo shot to Paul DeJong -- but failed to reach multiple strikeouts in a start for the first time this season. The Brewers' rotation plans are murky, currently as DL Hall (knee) has been making rehab starts and could return soon. If Myers remains in the rotation for another start, it would come against the Phillies on the road next week. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:01 pm
     
  • Sal Frelick reaches five times in blowout win
    Sal Frelick went 3-for-4 and scored three runs in a blowout win over the White Sox on Friday.

    Advice: Felich reached five times Friday, and he also drove in a run. The 24-year-old has swung the bat well as of late, and this makes seven hits over his last five games to see his average rise to .266 from .242 in the process. Frelick won’t hit for much power, but he has a chance to be a helper in a few categories even without hitting the ball over the fence. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:06 pm
