    • Return this weekend possible
      Hoskins (hamstring) could be activated as soon as this weekend's series versus the White Sox, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Hoskins has ramped up his running in recent days and is nearly ready to play in games. It's possible the Brewers will ask him to play a few rehab games with Single-A Wisconsin this weekend, and it that happens, it would set Hoskins up for a return Monday at his old stomping grounds in Milwaukee. Hoskins has missed the last two weeks of action with a right hamstring strain. Rotowire.com Today, 9:11 am

    • Braves place A.J. Minter on IL
      Braves placed LHP A.J. Minter on the 15-day IL with left hip inflammation.

      Advice: Minter struggled at the beginning of the month but is coming off five straight scoreless appearances to lower his season-long ERA to 2.95. There is no indication yet how long Minter will be sidelined, but the Braves will likely turn to Aaron Bummer as their main lefty out of the bullpen in the meantime. Righty Jimmy Herget was called up in a corresponding move. Rotoworld Today, 6:38 am

    • Out with hip injury
      Atlanta placed Minter on the 15-day injured list Thursday with left hip inflammation.

      Advice: Minter tossed a scoreless inning in Wednesday's win over the Nationals but evidently must have injured his hip during the appearance. The left-hander will be eligible to return from the IL on June 14, although it's not yet clear whether he will be ready for activation at that time. Rotowire.com Today, 6:25 am

    • Starting Sunday
      Gomber (arm) will start Sunday's game against the Dodgers, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

      Advice: General arm soreness caused Gomber to be scratched from his scheduled start Monday versus Cleveland, but he is now set to make his next outing during the weekend coming off plenty of rest. The 30-year-old southpaw has impressed early in the year with a 2.76 ERA and 1.11 WHIP across 58.2 innings through his first 10 starts. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:45 pm
       
    • Resting Wednesday
      Jansen is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the White Sox.

      Advice: Jansen will get some routine maintenance in the series finale after he started at catcher in each of the Blue Jays' last three games. Alejandro Kirk will spell Jansen behind the dish. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:48 pm
       
    • Sitting against left-hander
      Nimmo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Dodgers.

      Advice: Southpaw James Paxton is on the hill for the Dodgers, so the left-handed-hitting Nimmo will open Wednesday's game on the bench. Tyrone Taylor will patrol left field while Nimmo rests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:48 am

    • Slugs game-winning homer
      Ozuna went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 2-0 win over the Nationals.

      Advice: The veteran slugger broke open a scoreless tie when he took Jacob Barnes deep in the seventh inning, continuing his most recent hit streak. Ozuna has reached base safely in 21 straight games, a stretch in which he's slashing .324/.409/.662 with seven homers and 16 RBI. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:43 am

    • Five hits in twin bill
      Freeman went 5-for-8 with a walk, a double, a home run and three RBI across both games of Tuesday's doubleheader sweep of the Mets.

      Advice: The first baseman reached base three times in each contest, but most of his production came in the matinee, including a two-run shot off Jorge Lopez in the 10th inning. Freeman is heating up again, slashing .333/.381/.590 over the last 10 games with four doubles, two homers, five runs and nine RBI. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:52 am

    • Fans eight in quality start
      Glasnow came away with a no-decision in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader sweep of the Mets, allowing two runs on two hits and four walks over seven innings. He struck out eight.

      Advice: The right-hander produced his eighth quality start of the season while fanning at least eight batters for the sixth time in his last seven trips to the mound, but Glasnow exited the game in line for the loss before the Dodgers rallied late and eventually won it in the 10th inning. Glasnow will take a 3.04 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 95:21 K:BB through 74 innings into his next outing, which lines up to come early next week in Pittsburgh. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:29 am
