    • Andrew Vaughn dealing with sprained left finger
      Andrew Vaughn is not in Saturday’s lineup due to a sprained left ring finger.

      Advice: Vaughn will miss his second straight contest on Saturday due to an injury that he suffered earlier this week while sliding into third base. The hope is that he’ll avoid a trip to the injured list and be ready to return to Chicago’s lineup at some point early next week. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now.

    • On bench Saturday
      Turner is out of the lineup Saturday versus the Pirates.

      Advice: Turner will head to the bench after he went 2-for-11 with a double, two RBI, four walks and two strikeouts while starting the team's last three contests. Daniel Vogelbach will replace him at designated hitter and bat fifth against Pittsburgh. Rotowire.com Today, 11:08 am

    • Back in lineup Saturday
      Varsho (illness) will start in center field and bat second Saturday versus the Pirates.

      Advice: Varsho will return to the lineup after missing Friday's 5-3 win due to food poisoning. The 27-year-old has struggled to a .157 average with seven extra-base hits, including four homers, over his last 18 contests. Rotowire.com Today, 10:55 am

    • Not starting against lefty
      Cruz isn't in the Pirates' lineup for Saturday's game against the Blue Jays, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

      Advice: With lefty Yusei Kikuchi starting for Toronto, the left-handed bat of Cruz will step out of the lineup Saturday. Nick Gonzales will slide over to play shortstop while Jared Triolo covers the keystone. Rotowire.com Today, 10:23 am
       
    • Sitting Saturday

      Advice: Vaughn will remain on the bench for a second game in a row Saturday. Gavin Sheets will draw another start at first base and bat fifth against Milwaukee. Rotowire.com Today, 9:25 am

    • Battling food poisoning
      Varsho was unavailable for Friday's game against the Pirates due to food poisoning, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

      Advice: Varsho's absence Friday shielded him from facing left-hander Bailey Falter, but the Blue Jays have now revealed they held the 27-year-old out due to illness rather than an unfavorable matchup. Davis Schneider moved from second base to left field Friday to cover for Varsho, and he may continue to do so if Varsho's condition doesn't improve Saturday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:53 pm
       
    • Fans seven in win
      Bibee (4-1) allowed a run on three hits and a walk over 6.1 innings Friday, striking out seven and earning a win over the Nationals.

      Advice: Bibee dominated in six shutout frames before Washington finally pushed home a run in the seventh. He's turned in three straight quality starts, dropping his season ERA from 4.34 to 3.74 during that span. The 25-year-old righty has allowed two or fewer runs in seven of his first 12 starts. He'll carry a 69:18 K:BB into his next start, which is expected to be at home against the Royals next week. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:27 pm
