    • Kyle Tucker (shin) ‘close’ to resuming running
      Kyle Tucker (shin) progressed to taking swings on Sunday and could resume running within the next few days.

      Advice: The revelation comes courtesy of a team statement. It’s a welcome relief for fantasy managers as we were honestly starting to wonder whether Tucker was dealing with something more serious than merely a shin contusion. He’ll need at least a couple minor league rehab contests to get back up to speed after he’s ready to get back into game action, but it doesn’t sound like he’s too far away from making it back to Houston.

    • Takes swings, could run soon
      Tucker (shin) took swings off a tee Sunday and could be cleared to begin running soon, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Tucker's recovery from a right shin contusion has dragged on longer than anticipated, but it looks like he's finally turned a corner as he resumes baseball activities. He's more than three weeks removed from suffering the injury and still has some hoops to jump through, so he could require a rehab assignment before rejoining the Astros' active roster.

    • Not in Tuesday's lineup
      Suwinski is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Reds, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

      Advice: Suwinski started the previous four games but will sit after going 2-for-14 with a double and an RBI during that stretch. Michael Taylor will start in center field against Cincinnati righty Hunter Greene on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:55 pm
       
    • Likely to miss 2-to-3 weeks
      Reds manager David Bell said Monday that he expects Friedl (hamstring) to return from the 10-day injured list in 2-to-3 weeks, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

      Advice: Cincinnati placed Friedl on the IL on Monday after he aggravated a left hamstring strain in Sunday's 7-4 loss to Boston. The Reds called up Levi Jordan from Triple-A Louisville in a corresponding move to burnish their depth in the outfield, but Stuart Fairchild could be given the first opportunity to replace Friedl as the club's everyday center fielder.

    • Back to IL with strained hamstring
      The Reds placed Friedl on the 10-day injured list Monday with a right hamstring strain.

      Advice: Friedl initially tweaked the hamstring a week ago and missed two games before returning to action, but he aggravated the injury in Sunday's 7-4 loss to Boston. The trip to the IL is the third this season for Friedl, who also missed time with wrist and thumb injuries. It's not clear how long he might be sidelined. Rotowire.com Monday, 1:14 pm

    • Reds put TJ Friedl on IL with hamstring strain
      Resd placed OF TJ Friedl on the 10-day injured list with a right hamstring strain.

      Advice: This is Friedl’s third IL stint of the season. The center fielder had been in a little 2-for-23 slump while dealing with the injury originally suffered at the beginning of last week, but he’ll be missed at the top of the Reds’ lineup. Nick Martini and Stuart Fairchild will pick up at-bats in his place, with Will Benson likely to slide to center. Rotoworld Monday, 1:13 pm

    • TJ Friedl goes 0-for-5 in loss to Red Sox
      TJ Friedl went 0-for-5 from the leadoff spot Sunday against the Red Sox, leaving him 2-for-23 in his last six games.

      Advice: Friedl got off to a hot start this month, but he’s gone hitless in five of his last six starts, putting him back down to .208/.309/.354 for the season. The Reds will likely keep leading him off for now, but they do have an alternative in Jonathan India sporting a .390 OBP this month and a .356 OBP for the year. Rotoworld Sunday, 2:30 pm

    • Ends hitless skid
      Friedl went 2-for-5 in Saturday's 4-3 loss to Boston.

      Advice: Friedl's fifth-inning single snapped an 0-for-16 run. Later in the same inning, Friedl was thrown out at home trying to score on an infield grounder -- one of three baserunning miscues in the game. After missing most of the first two months of the season due to injuries, Friedl is healthy and has started 19 of the 21 games since returning from a second stint on the injured list in late May.

    • Still no baseball activity
      Tucker (shin) ran on a treadmill Friday but still has not resumed on-field work, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Manager Joe Espada was optimistic that Tucker would ramp up his activity over the weekend, though that has yet to occur. Tucker will likely miss the entirety of Houston's series against the Rockies to start next week. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:35 pm
