    • Survives wild outing
      Kopech allowed two walks and struck out one across a scoreless ninth inning in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Nationals.

      Advice: Kopech entered the game in the ninth inning with a four-run lead and successfully closed out the game. It was his first appearance since May 9, and he struggled with his control, walking a pair and also throwing a pair of wild pitches. Despite being shaky in this appearance, Kopech has now allowed only one earned across his last 7.1 innings. Rotowire.com Today, 7:07 am
       
    • Byron Buxton (knee) starting rehab assignment
      Byron Buxton (knee) will begin a minor league rehab assignment on Wednesday with Triple-A St. Paul.

      Advice: Buxton should be ready to return to Minnesota’s lineup at some point later this week after getting into a couple rehab contests. The 30-year-old center fielder has been out since early May due to right knee inflammation. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:20 pm

    • Byron Buxton (knee) nearing rehab assignment
      Byron Buxton (knee) is close to starting a minor league rehab assignment.

      Advice: Twins manager Rocco Baldelli told reporters Buxton will test out his right knee on Tuesday at Target Field before the club determines whether he’s ready to head out on a rehab assignment. The 30-year-old center fielder landed on the injured list back in early May with right knee inflammation and figures to be back before the end of the month. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:44 pm

    • Rehab games required
      Buxton (knee) is expected to begin a minor-league rehab assignment later this week before being activated from the 10-day injured list, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Buxton is eligible to return from the IL on Tuesday, but the Twins want to give him some time to get in some minor-league at-bats before summoning him to the big leagues. He shouldn't be in line for an extended rehab assignment, so fantasy managers can expect Buxton to return from the IL as soon as this weekend. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:43 pm

    • Expected back Wednesday
      Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Tuesday that he expects Realmuto (knee) to return to the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Mets, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Realmuto missed a third straight start Tuesday because of right knee soreness. However, he got in a productive workout pregame, and as long as he doesn't have any sort of setback, it appears he'll be back in there for Wednesday's tilt in Philadelphia.

    • J.T. Realmuto (knee) likely to return Wednesday
      Phillies manager Rob Thomson told reporters J.T. Realmuto (knee) will return to the lineup on Wednesday.

      Advice: Realmuto sat out Tuesday’s showdown against the Mets at Citi Field due to an ongoing right knee issue, but it sounds like he’ll be ready to go for Wednesday’s matchup, barring something unexpected. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:31 pm
       
    • Taking seat Tuesday
      Burger is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Detroit.

      Advice: Burger has had trouble finding his rhythm since returning from the injured list, going just 2-for-29 at the plate. He'll get a day off to reset. Tristan Gray will handle third base in Burger's stead. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:27 pm
       
    • Absent from lineup
      Kirilloff is not in the lineup for Tuesday's tilt against the Yankees.

      Advice: Kirilloff will begin this one on the bench as the Yankees send lefty Carlos Rodon to the hill. Austin Martin is getting the start in left field. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:15 pm
       
    • Works out pregame Tuesday
      Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Realmuto (knee) did some work on the field and in the batting cage pregame Tuesday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Thomson noted that Realmuto's right knee is feeling better, but the skipper was not ready to commit to the catcher returning to the lineup Wednesday. Realmuto is missing a third straight start Tuesday. Garrett Stubbs has been filling in behind the plate for the Phils. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:34 am
