    • Struggles in no-decision
      Peralta did not factor into the decision Saturday against the Tigers, allowing four runs (three earned) on four hits and five walks while striking out three over 3.1 innings.

      Advice: Peralta had issues with his command Saturday, with the five walks being tied for his second most this season. He threw 94 pitches to retire just 10 batters as he found himself in constant trouble with a lot of traffic on the bases. It was the 28-year-old's shortest outing yet in 2024 and represents the latest bump in the road after Peralta got off to a strong start to the season. Rotowire.com Today, 5:24 pm
       
    • Throws on flat ground, bullpen next
      Gallen (hamstring) threw a flat-ground session Saturday and is expected to throw a bullpen soon, Jesse Friedman of GoPHNX.com reports.

      Advice: Gallen was cleared for throwing June 3 and was able to complete a flat-ground session Saturday. The next box for Gallen to check in his recovery from a right hamstring strain would be a bullpen, which should occur in the coming days. Gallen will be eligible to return from the injured list June 15, though it's unclear if he'll be ready by then. Rotowire.com Today, 5:18 pm

    • Zac Gallen (hamstring) throws off of flat ground
      Zac Gallen (hamstring) threw off of flat ground without any issues on Saturday.

      Advice: As long as he rebounds fine from that session, he’ll be cleared to throw a bullpen session. Gallen has been shelved since May 31 due to a Grade 1 right hamstring strain. It remains unclear if he’ll require a minor league rehab start or not before rejoining the Diamondbacks’ rotation. Rotoworld Today, 5:04 pm

    • Trevor Megill slams door on Tigers on Saturday
      Trevor Megill slammed the door on the Tigers on Saturday afternoon, working a perfect ninth inning to protect a one-run lead.

      Advice: The 30-year-old right-hander made it look awfully easy again in this one, getting Matt Vierling on a ground ball to shortstop, Riley Greene on a fly ball to right and Mark Canha on a fly ball to center to end it. He has been outstanding overall on the season, posting a 2.12 ERA and a 24/4 K/BB ratio over 17 innings while converting nine of his first 10 save chances. Rotoworld Today, 4:24 pm
       
    • Freddy Peralta struggles with command Saturday
      Freddy Peralta struggled with his command in a no-decision against the Tigers on Saturday afternoon, giving up four runs (three earned) on four hits and five walks in just 3 1/3 innings of work.

      Advice: The right-hander struck out three batters on the day. He had to really labor to get 10 outs in the ballgame, needing 94 pitches (56 strikes) to do so. Most of the damage came during a three-run uprising in the second inning as Carson Kelly and Mark Canha contributed run-scoring singles. Peralta got just five swings and misses in the contest, posting an underwhelming CSW of only 24 percent. He’ll attempt to bounce back as he carries a 3.95 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and a 92/26 K/BB ratio (70 2/3 innings) into Friday’s matchup against the Reds. Rotoworld Today, 4:24 pm
       
    • Sitting Saturday
      Jeffers is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Jeffers has gone 0-for-16 with six strikeouts over his last five games, and he is down to .234/.323/.500 over 218 plate appearances this season. Christian Vazquez will start behind home plate Saturday and bat ninth against Pirates right-hander Carmen Mlodzinski. Rotowire.com Today, 11:12 am
       
    • Not starting Saturday
      Suzuki (oblique) isn't in the Cubs' lineup for Saturday's game against the Reds.

      Advice: Suzuki was hit in the left side by a throw while stealing second base during Friday's loss, and he was later taken out of the game as a precaution after he felt his oblique tighten up. It's still unclear how serious his injury is, but the Cubs will play it safe Saturday and keep him sidelined. His absence will move Christopher Morel into the DH spot while Patrick Wisdom starts at third base. Rotowire.com Today, 11:01 am

    • Seiya Suzuki out Saturday due to side tightness
      Seiya Suzuki (side) is not in the lineup for Saturday’s contest against the Reds.

      Advice: It doesn’t come as a surprise to see the Cubs proceeding cautiously here after Suzuki left Friday’s showdown for precautionary reasons due to left side tightness. The 29-year-old corner outfielder has dealt with oblique issues on both sides over the last few years, so it’s understandable that Chicago doesn’t want to take any chances here. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Today, 10:43 am

    • Mashes homer No. 10
      Westburg went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 6-3 win over the Rays.

      Advice: The 25-year-old took Chris Devenski deep in the eighth inning to give Baltimore some insurance runs. Westburg is batting .298 (14-for-47) over his last 12 games, boosting his slash line on the season to .280/.336/.495 with 10 homers, six steals, 32 runs and 38 RBI in 58 contests.
