  • Luis Rengifo (illness) not in lineup again Tuesday
    Luis Rengifo (illness) remains absent from the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Phillies.

    Advice: Rengifo remains out of the lineup for the fourth consecutive contest due to illness. The versatile 27-year-old remains day-to-day for the moment. It’ll be Brandon Drury at the keystone and Cole Tucker at the hot corner once again on Tuesday night. Rotoworld 5 minutes ago

  • Alek Thomas to undergo MRI on left hamstring
    Alek Thomas will undergo an MRI after experiencing renewed left hamstring discomfort.

    Advice: Thomas hasn’t felt right since Sunday’s rehab game with Triple-A Reno and will undergo some additional testing to determine the extent of the issue. The 24-year-old outfielder has been on the shelf since early April recovering from a left hamstring strain. There should be an update on his status at some point later this week, if not sooner.

  • Wenceel Pérez returns to lineup Tuesday vs. Guards
    Wenceel Pérez (illness) has returned to the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Guardians.

    Advice: Pérez is back in center field and batting second for Tuesday’s contest at Progressive Field following a two-game absence due to illness. The 24-year-old has gotten off to an encouraging start in his big-league debut, batting .296 with three homers and two steals in 19 games since being called up back in early April.

  • Taking batting practice
    Thomas (knee) will take full batting practice on the field Tuesday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    Advice: It will be his first time doing so since he went down with a left MCL sprain in his knee two weeks ago. Thomas will need to do some running and other drills before being cleared for a rehab assignment, but he seems to be making nice progress. Rotowire.com 24 minutes ago

  • Mark Canha out Tuesday due to illness
    Mark Canha is absent from Tuesday’s lineup due to illness.

    Advice: Canha is apparently under the weather and will sit out Tuesday’s showdown against the Guardians. It’ll be Riley Greene taking over in left field and Ryan Vilade drawing a start in right field for his season debut. Rotoworld 25 minutes ago

  • Status uncertain following setback
    Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Tuesday that Thomas is headed back to Phoenix to be reevaluated after feeling renewed discomfort in his left hamstring while on a rehab assignment, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

    Advice: Thomas had appeared poised to be activated from the 10-day injured list soon, but now his status is cloudy again following a setback. He first injured the hamstring back on March 31 and had played four rehab games with Triple-A Reno. More clarity on Thomas' situation should be available later this week. Rotowire.com 26 minutes ago

  • Cubs activate Cody Bellinger for Tuesday return
    Cubs activated 1B/OF Cody Bellinger from the 10-day injured list.

    Advice: Bellinger will make his return to Chicago’s lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Padres following a two-week absence due to a rib fracture. The 28-year-old slugger was off to a bit of a slow start at the dish this season, batting .226/.320/.440 with five homers and 17 RBI in 97 plate appearances over 22 contests before a collision with the center-field wall back on April 23 resulted in a rib injury. Fantasy managers should make sure he’s back in their respective lineups moving forward. Rotoworld 35 minutes ago

  • Not facing lefty
    Carpenter is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Cleveland.

    Advice: As per usual, Carpenter will slide to the bench with southpaw Logan Allen on the mound for the Guardians. Instead, Ryan Vilade will make his 2024 debut and fill in at right field. Rotowire.com 37 minutes ago
