    • Jake Burger tallies two hits, homers in losing effort
      Jake Burger went 2-for-4 with a solo homer on Tuesday in the Marlins’ loss to the Red Sox.

      Advice: Burger was one of the few bright spots in this one as his fifth-inning solo shot off Red Sox starter Kutter Crawford was one of just three hits for Miami through six innings. The 28-year-old slugger has homered twice in his last five games and is now up to eight big flies on the season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:15 pm

    • Exits with groin tightness
      Lewis was removed from Tuesday's game versus the Tigers due to left groin tightness, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: It's unclear exactly when Lewis suffered the injury, though it's possible he may have tweaked his groin running out of the batter's box during his last at-bat in the third inning. The Twins are considering him day-to-day, so there's a chance he was simply removed as a precaution given his injury history. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:12 pm

    • Royce Lewis exits game with groin tightness
      Royce Lewis was removed from Tuesday’s game against the Tigers with left groin tightness.

      Advice: Here we go again. The Twins are calling Lewis day-to-day following his early exit from Tuesday’s series opener against the Tigers, so it’s possible his removal was merely out of an abundance of caution. We’ll see. The injury-plagued 25-year-old burgeoning fantasy star was 1-for-2 with a two-run double off Tigers ace Tarik Skubal prior to leaving the contest. There should be some clarity on his status prior to Wednesday’s showdown. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:59 pm

    • IKF week-to-week with right knee sprain
      Isiah Kiner-Falefa is week-to-week with a right knee sprain.

      Advice: Blue Jays manager John Schneider told reporters Tuesday that Kiner-Falefa is going to require more than a minimum stay on the injured list after suffering a right knee sprain. There isn’t an official timeline for his return, but the absence of any sort of clarity means he’s most likely out until after the All-Star break. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:35 pm

    • Optioned to Triple-A
      The Diamondbacks optioned Alexander to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.

      Advice: With Gabriel Moreno (thumb) and Alek Thomas (hamstring) returning from the injured list Tuesday, Alexander and Tucker Barnhart will both be pushed back to the minors. In his first season in the big leagues, Alexander has slashed .259/.328/.361 with three homers and 21 RBI across 175 plate appearances. Should the Diamondbacks run into any problems with their infield depth, it's likely the 25-year-old would be one of the first choices for a return to Arizona. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:37 pm
       
    • D-backs option Blaze Alexander to Triple-A
      Diamondbacks optioned SS Blaze Alexander to Triple-A Reno.

      Advice: Alexander got off to a strong start this season in place of an injured Geraldo Perdomo, but there isn’t exactly a spot for him in Arizona at the moment with everyone back healthy in the starting lineup. The 25-year-old rookie holds a respectable .688 OPS with three homers and three steals across 175 plate appearances. He’ll continue to play everyday back at Triple-A Reno until another opportunity arises. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:32 pm
       
    • Sitting Tuesday
      Biggio isn't in the Dodgers' lineup Tuesday versus the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Biggio continues to split time at third base with Chris Taylor until Max Muncy (oblique) returns. Biggio has struggled with Los Angeles, batting .188 with a 33.3 percent strikeout rate in 12 games since being acquired from the Blue Jays. Taylor has the start at third Tuesday and is batting eighth. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:20 pm

    • Athletics recall Brett Harris on Tuesday
      Athletics recalled 3B Brett Harris from Triple-A Las Vegas.

      Advice: Harris has struggled at the plate in a handful of contests this season for Oakland, but he’s going to get another shot with veteran Aledmys Díaz being designated for assignment. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:18 pm
       
    • Athletics designate Aledmys Díaz for assignment
      Athletics designated INF Aledmys Díaz for assignment.

      Advice: Díaz has been jettisoned from Oakland’s roster to make room for younger players to come up and get an opportunity moving forward. The 33-year-old veteran infielder signed a two-year, $14.5 million deal prior to last year and finishes his tenure in Oakland with a disastrous .585 OPS with four homers and one steal in 374 plate appearances over 121 games.
