  • Rangers place Jonah Heim on paternity list
    Rangers placed C Jonah Heim on the paternity list.

    Advice: The hard-hitting 28-year-old backstop will be away from the team for a few days to welcome a new addition to his family. Sam Huff was recalled from Triple-A Round Rock and will help share the load behind the plate while Heim is away. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:04 pm
     
  • Day off Saturday
    Trevino is not in the starting lineup Saturday versus the Red Sox.

    Advice: Trevino will get a day off after he went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 8-1 win. Austin Wells will take over at catcher and bat eighth against Boston. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:59 pm
     
  • Aiming for return in late June
    Contreras (forearm) is targeting a return in late June, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports reports.

    Advice: Contreras has resumed taking batting practice and hopes to be cleared to begin a rehab assignment early next week. If that happens, a return sometime during the Cardinals' June 22-30 homestand is likely. It would be at least a couple weeks quicker than he was initially expected back following surgery in early May to repair a fractured forearm. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:04 am
     
  • Out of lineup again Saturday
    Campusano is not in the lineup for Saturday's contest versus the Mets.

    Advice: He will give way to Kyle Higashioka at catcher for the second day in a row and the third time over the Padres' last four contests. Campusano has just a .541 OPS since the beginning of May. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:11 am
     
  • Breather Saturday
    Bailey is not in the starting lineup Saturday against the Angels.

    Advice: Bailey will get a breather after he went 5-for-17 with a double, two RBI and a run scored while starting each of the team's last five contests. Curt Casali will take over behind the plate and bat ninth versus Los Angeles. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:06 am
     
  • More BP, then games
    Contreras (forearm) came out of his Friday's batting practice session with no issues and will repeat the step for the next few days, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: It was the first time Contreras had taken BP since he had surgery on his fractured left forearm in early May. The hope is that he will be ready for a rehab assignment after a few days of batting practice, but he will need to gain medical clearance first. Contreras is tracking toward an earlier-than-expected return, but there's no target date just yet. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:45 am
     
  • Joining team in Colorado
    Delay is headed to Colorado to join the Pirates, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Advice: Henry Davis had to exit Friday's game with concussion-like symptoms, and while nothing has been determined yet regarding his roster status, Delay will be around in case he's needed. Delay was optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis earlier this month after completing a rehab assignment following knee surgery. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:57 am
     
  • Goes deep Friday
    Trevino went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in an 8-1 win against Boston on Friday.

    Advice: Trevino homered in his final at-bat of the contest, taking Red Sox reliever Chase Anderson deep to left field. The long ball was the catcher's second in his past two starts and his seventh overall this season, putting him well on pace to surpass the career-best mark of 11 that he established in 2022. Austin Wells entered the campaign as the slight favorite for primary catching duties with New York, but Trevino has seized that role with a strong season at the plate, as he's complemented his homer total with 18 runs, 24 RBI and a .271/.319/.434 slash line through 142 plate appearances.

  • Salvador Perez exits Friday with knee discomfort
    Salvador Perez was removed from Friday’s game against the Dodgers with right knee discomfort.

    Advice: Perez exited Friday’s contest in the eighth inning and told reporters afterwards that he felt a tweak in his right knee earlier in the game when he stood up quickly to catch a high fastball from Royals ace Cole Ragans. The 34-year-old ironman will presumably head for some additional testing and imaging to determine the severity of the issue if he’s not feeling better this weekend. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for the moment. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:57 am
