Mike Yastrzemski was removed from Thursday’s game against the Cardinals with left side tightness.
Advice: Yastrzemski appeared to suffer some sort of side issue during the early stages of Thursday’s contest at historic Rickwood Field in Birmingham, Alabama, prior to leaving the game with a trainer in the fourth inning. He was 1-for-1 with a run scored before his early exit. There should be an additional update on his status following the contest. RotoworldToday, 5:51 pm
Wilyer Abreu (ankle) is likely to return for Friday’s series opener against the Reds.
Advice: Abreu hammered a pair of solo homers on Wednesday in a minor league rehab game for Triple-A Worcester and is expected to rejoin the club for the start of a series out in Cincinnati. The 24-year-old has been on the shelf since early June when he suffered a right ankle sprain when he slipped on the dugout steps. His return will provide a lift for the Red Sox, who are riding a five-game winning streak. RotoworldToday, 5:37 pm
Angels sent INF/OF Cole Tucker outright to Triple-A Salt Lake.
Advice: Tucker batted .180/.263/.300 with three steals in 57 plate appearances over 24 games in a brief stint with the Angels and wound up going unclaimed after being designated for assignment earlier this week. The 27-year-old appears likely to stick around as extra organizational depth for now. RotoworldToday, 5:26 pm

Aaron Judge went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer and three RBI on Thursday in the Yankees’ blowout loss to the Orioles.
Advice: Judge returned to the Yankees lineup for Thursday afternoon’s showdown against Baltimore after missing only one game with left hand contusion. The home run was his 27th of the season and he’s already up to 67 RBI. Fantasy managers can exhale with the return of one of the best hitters in the game and based on this contest, it doesn’t seem like the hand is bothering him at all. RotoworldToday, 4:49 pm
Anthony Santander went 2-for-5 with a walk and a three-run home run against the Yankees on Thursday.
Advice: Santander’s home run was his 19th of the season. He’s hit a ridiculous 10 home runs in 19 games in June. Santander’s hitting .230 with a .806 OPS and 48 RBI on the season. RotoworldToday, 4:36 pm
McCarthy went 3-for-4 with two runs scored and two stolen bases Thursday against the Nationals.
Advice: McCarthy collected three singles for his third multi-hit performance in the last four games and his 13th of the season, lifting his batting average to .298 in the process. He also added a couple of steals to lift his season total to 12, while the two runs scored now gives him 25 across 188 plate appearances. Rotowire.comToday, 4:29 pm
Chourio isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Thursday's game against the Padres.
Advice: Chourio will take a seat Thursday after going 4-for-16 with five RBI and two runs scored over his last five games. While he sits, Christian Yelich, Blake Perkins and Sal Frelick will start in the outfield with Rhys Hoskins in as the DH, opening up first base for Tyler Black. Rotowire.comToday, 3:55 pm
Fernando Tatis Jr. is in the lineup for Thursday’s game against the Brewers.
Advice: Tatis got a day off earlier this week to address a lingering quad issue that he’s been playing through for the last few weeks. It’s possible the nagging issue has impacted his performance recently as he’s batting .130 (3-for-23) over his last seven games. RotoworldToday, 3:00 pm
