• Not in Sunday's lineup
    Haniger is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at Houston.

    Advice: Haniger started the previous five games but will hit the bench Sunday after he went 2-for-20 during that stretch. Josh Rojas will receive a start in the outfield while Luis Urias starts at third base. Rotowire.com 9 minutes ago
     
  • Gets third straight start
    Miranda will start at third base and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

    Advice: Carlos Correa's return from the 10-day injured list Monday appeared to have pushed Miranda back into a reserve role, but the 25-year-old has since seen his playing time pick back up after Byron Buxton (knee) landed on the IL on Friday. With Willi Castro shifting to the outfield to cover for Buxton, Miranda has started at the hot corner in all three games this weekend. Rotowire.com 11 minutes ago
     
  • Out of Sunday's lineup
    Gorman is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

    Advice: Gorman is 1-for-17 with four walks and five strikeouts over his past six games, and he'll receive a day to reset Sunday. Jose Fermin is starting at the keystone and batting eighth in the series finale versus Chicago. Rotowire.com 12 minutes ago

  • Not starting Sunday
    Benintendi is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

  • Managing adductor issue
    Lopez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox and is dealing with adductor soreness, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    Advice: Manager Pedro Grifol indicated Lopez could have played through the issue, but the skipper decided to provide a day off. The 29-year-old should be considered day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener in Tampa Bay. Braden Shewmake is manning the keystone while Bryan Ramos starts at third base Sunday.

  • Will pitch Sunday
    Jansen, who hasn't pitched the last six days, will be used in Sunday's game against the Twins, Peter Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

    Advice: The Red Sox have a day off Monday and will prevent Jansen from the absence extending any further, so the closer is expected to pitch one way or another. He's pitched just once over the last nine days. Rotowire.com 27 minutes ago
  • Nelson (elbow) off injured list to start Sunday
    Diamondbacks activated RHP Ryne Nelson off the 15-day injured list.

    Advice: Nelson is back to make a start Sunday against the Padres. The right-hander ended up missing the minimum amount of time while dealing with a bruise on his right elbow. Nelson was shaky in his starts prior to the injury, and fantasy managers should probably look elsewhere for a streaming option. Rotoworld 28 minutes ago

  • Diamondbacks option Brandon Hughes to Triple-A
    Diamondbacks optioned LHP Brandon Hughes to Triple-A Reno.

    Advice: Hughes was just recalled Tuesday, but the Diamondbacks need a roster spot for Ryne Nelson after Nelson was activated off the 15-day injured list. Hughes is still on the 40-man roster, so he could see another chance with the D-Backs before the end of 2024. Rotoworld 31 minutes ago
  • Throws bullpen session
    Whitlock (oblique) threw a bullpen session Saturday, Peter Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

    Advice: Whitlock emerged from the session without issue and will embark on a throwing program. Red Sox manager Alex Cora said, "it's just the beginning," when discussing the right-hander's status. Whitlock was placed on the injured list April 17 and seemingly would need at least one rehab start. Rotowire.com 33 minutes ago
