  • Activated from injured list
    The Nationals activated Robles (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

    Advice: Robles missed more than a month of action with a strained left hamstring but has been cleared to return after a six-game rehab stint with Triple-A Rochester during which he went 7-for-20 with one stolen base. Jacob Young has performed well in center field for the Nats, so Robles' playing time is not assured. Rotowire.com 5 minutes ago
     
  • Moves up to leadoff spot Tuesday
    Carroll will start in center field and bat leadoff in Tuesday's game in Cincinnati.

    Advice: It's the first time since April 22 that Carroll has hit higher than seventh. The reigning National League Rookie of the Year did have two base knocks and two RBI in Monday's game, his first multi-hit effort since April 19. Rotowire.com 12 minutes ago

  • Receiving first day off
    Ward is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

  • On bench again
    Moreno is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Reds, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

  • Outrighted after clearing waivers
    Trammell was outrighted to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

    Advice: Trammell cleared waivers after being DFA'd by the Yankees on Saturday and will stick in the team's system and the Triple-A level. Considering he hasn't batted over .200 in the big leagues in his career, Trammell will likely have to light it up in Triple-A to return to the majors. Rotowire.com 26 minutes ago
     
  • Not in Tuesday's lineup
    Rojas is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Brandon Marsh will slide over to center field, while Whit Merrifield will get a start in left. Rojas is slashing just .125/.146/.225 over his last 10 games. Rotowire.com 34 minutes ago
