  • Feeling better
    Rendon (hamstring) has progressed to walking on an incline on the treadmill, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Rendon is taking baby steps in his recovery from a left hamstring strain but said Monday that he's feeling a bit better. There remains no timetable for his return and he's not eligible for activation for another month after being shifted to the 60-day injured list. Rotowire.com 5 minutes ago

  • On bench for Game 2
    Merrill is out of the lineup for Game 2 of Monday's doubleheader in Atlanta.

    Advice: Merrill started in center field in Game 1 and went 1-for-4 with two RBI, as he brought home San Diego's first two runs on a groundout and a single. Jose Azocar will take over in center field for the nightcap. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago

  • Mets release Joey Wendle
    Mets released INF Joey Wendle.

    Advice: Wendle was designated for assignment last week after hitting .222/.243/.250 in 37 plate appearances for the Mets. He’ll probably resurface with another club this summer, though he might have to take a minor league deal initially. Rotoworld 31 minutes ago

  • Sitting again Monday
    Garver is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Yankees.

    Advice: Garver returned to action Friday after missing a couple games due to back spasms, but he now finds himself on the bench for a second straight contest. Mitch Haniger will serve as the designated hitter while Luke Raley receives a start in the outfield. Rotowire.com 32 minutes ago
     
  • Won't be activated Monday
    Astros manager Joe Espada said that McCormick (hamstring) will not be activated from the 10-day injured list prior to Monday's game versus the Angels, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: However, McCormick is with the Astros at Minute Maid Park and will go through a pregame workout. His activation will come "soon," per Espada, with Tuesday seeming like a distinct possibility. McCormick has been out for all of May with a right hamstring injury. Rotowire.com 42 minutes ago

  • Mitch Garver out of lineup for second straight day
    Mitch Garver is sitting again Monday, with Mariners manager Scott Servais saying he plans to mix in his lefty bats more frequently.

    Advice: Servais said Garver, Mitch Haniger and Ty France could all sit occasionally with Dominic Canzone and Luke Raley both playing against righties. Garver has been the worst performer of the trio so far this season, so he’s sat on consecutive days. Rotoworld 43 minutes ago
     
  • Jorge Polanco (hamstring) available off bench
    Jorge Polanco, again out of the lineup with his hamstring tightness, will be available off the bench Monday, according to manager Scott Servais.

    Advice: It’s his sixth straight day out of the lineup, which is a lot for “tightness.” Luis Urías continues to fill in for him, with Josh Rojas moving from third to second. Rotoworld 48 minutes ago

  • Available off bench
    Mariners manager Scott Servais said that Polanco (hamstring) will be available off the bench Monday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

    Advice: Polanco is missing a sixth straight start Monday, but he's progressed enough with his right hamstring issue that he could enter mid-game, if needed. It would appear he'll have a shot to be back in the lineup Tuesday. Rotowire.com 48 minutes ago

    Sam Haggerty is out for the year after suffering a ruptured Achilles in a Triple-A game.

    Advice: Haggerty was hurt Saturday while trying to make a catch in center and planting his foot in the padded wall. The utilityman had been demoted from the majors just three days earlier. He’s a lifetime .232/.312/.351 hitter in parts of six seasons in the majors. Rotoworld Today, 1:56 pm
