  • Not starting Saturday
    Noda is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Orioles.

    Advice: Noda will begin Saturday's game in the dugout with the Orioles sending out southpaw Cole Irvin. It marks the third game in a row that Noda hasn't started, though he did pinch hit in each of the Athletics' last two games. Abraham Toro will start at first base Saturday and bat fifth.

  • Back in lineup
    Jones (back) is starting in left field Saturday against the Astros.

    Advice: Back stiffness caused Jones to exit Tuesday's game early and has kept him sidelined for the Rockies' last two games. Now seemingly healthy, the 25-year-old will look to turn things around at the dish after starting the year with a .469 OPS through 96 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 11:22 am

  • Starting Saturday as 27th man
    The Astros appointed Cabbage from Triple-A Sugar Land to be the 27th man for the two-game series against the Rockies in Mexico City, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.

    Advice: Houston was given permission to add a 27th man for its two-game series in Mexico City. The Astros opted to call up Cabbage, who will start in left field Saturday and bat seventh against Rockies right-hander Cal Quantrill. Cabbage played 22 games in the majors last season with the Angels, slashing .208/.321/.553 with three doubles, one stolen base, one home run and seven RBI over 56 plate appearances.

  • Nolan Jones in lineup for Mexico City opener
    Nolan Jones (back) has returned to the lineup for Saturday’s Mexico City series opener against the Astros.

    Advice: Jones is back in left field and batting seventh for Saturday’s showdown in Mexico City’s high-octane offensive environment after sitting out a pair of contests earlier this week due to back stiffness. The 25-year-old outfielder has struggled at the outset of the year, but showed he can be an impact five-category fantasy contributor during last year’s breakout campaign. It’s too early to consider cutting bait, despite his ongoing struggles at the dish. Rotoworld Today, 11:09 am

  • Up from Triple-A
    The Mets recalled Vientos from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Vientos has slashed .302/.388/.525 across 98 plate appearances in Triple-A, and he'll now join the big-league club as Starling Marte (personal) steps away from the team. Vientos will likely head back to Syracuse following Marte's return. Rotowire.com Today, 10:34 am

  • Gets breather Saturday
    Candelario isn't in the Reds' lineup for Saturday's game against the Rangers.

    Advice: Candelario will get a chance to clear his head Saturday after going 0-for-15 with eight strikeouts across his last five games. Santiago Espinal will step in to cover third base instead while batting ninth. Rotowire.com Today, 10:18 am
     
  • Added as 27th man
    The Rockies added Toglia to their active roster Saturday ahead of their series against the Astros in Mexico City.

    Advice: The Rockies were permitted to add an additional position player to their roster for their two-game series in Mexico City, so Toglia will come up from Albuquerque to provide additional flexibility at first base and in the outfield. The 25-year-old has slashed .106/.143/.362 across 49 big-league plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 10:05 am

  • Picks up steal
    Arias went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Friday's 6-2 loss to Atlanta.

    Advice: Arias' last four starts have been evenly split between second and third, providing opportunities for Jose Ramirez and Andres Gimenez to get rest. Arias is off to a solid start this season in a utility role, slashing .278/.304/.426 with three steals, one home run, eight RBI and seven runs scored across 56 plate appearances. He's already played at six different positions this season, so he should be able to be in the lineup semi-regularly despite lacking a single obvious path to playing time. Rotowire.com Today, 9:57 am

  • Placed on injured list
    The Nationals placed Gallo on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a sprained AC joint in his left shoulder, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.

    Advice: Gallo is slashing .122/.286/.311 across 91 plate appearances so far this season, but his shoulder injury will cause him to miss at least the next 10 days. Alex Call was recalled from Triple-A Rochester to replace Gallo as outfield depth. Rotowire.com Today, 9:57 am
