  • Luke Raley (abdomen) remains sidelined Saturday
    Luke Raley (abdomen) remains out of the Rays lineup for the nightcap of Saturday’s twin bill against the Red Sox.

    Advice: There had been optimism earlier in the day that Raley would be good to go for the second game, but apparently whatever the issue is hasn’t improved. Raley is currently undergoing further evaluation. NBCSportsEDGE.com 27 minutes ago

  • Rays activate Shawn Armstrong from 60-day IL
    Rays activated RHP Shawn Armstrong from the 60-day injured list.

    Advice: The right-hander had been shelved since spring training due to tightness in his neck, but he’s now fully recovered and ready to contribute to the Rays’ bullpen. He’ll likely be utilized in the middle innings initially. NBCSportsEDGE.com 30 minutes ago

  • Removed from 40-man roster
    Barrera was designated for assignment by the Cardinals on Saturday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Barrera will hit the waiver wire after appearing in six games with St. Louis following his promotion, and he went hitless in his two at-bats with the club. The Cardinals will announce a corresponding transaction before Sunday's game against the Pirates. Rotowire.com 32 minutes ago

  • Exits with left knee soreness
    Rosario left Saturday's game against the Twins with left knee soreness, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Rosario went 0-for-1 before exiting. The shortstop has been replaced by Tyler Freeman in the field. For now, Rosario should be considered day-to-day at this stage. Rotowire.com 34 minutes ago

  • Wander Franco (hamstring) sits out nightcap
    Wander Franco was held out of the Rays lineup for the nightcap of Saturday’s doubleheader due to a minor hamstring injury.

    Advice: It sounds like the Rays are just proceeding cautiously with their superstar shortstop. Taylor Walls will start in his place at shortstop and bat seventh for the Rays on Saturday evening. NBCSportsEDGE.com 36 minutes ago

  • Rays option Trevor Kelley to Triple-A Durham
    Rays optioned RHP Trevor Kelley to Triple-A Durham.

    Advice: Kelley functioned as the opener in the first game of Saturday’s doubleheader against the Red Sox, but with Robert Stephenson joining the active roster for the nightcap something had to give. He should get another opportunity with the Rays before the summer is through. NBCSportsEDGE.com 40 minutes ago

  • Should return Tuesday
    Orioles manager Brandon Hyde told reporters Saturday that Coulombe (personal) Should return for Baltimore's series against the Brewers starting Tuesday, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

    Advice: Hyde was placed on the bereavement list prior to Saturday's game against the Giants in San Francisco. The reliever should be back on the mound early next week with Josh Lester taking Coulombe's place on the roster in the meantime. Rotowire.com 52 minutes ago
     
  • Likely to join rotation
    Cubs manager David Ross told reporters that the plan is for Wesneski to replace Justin Steele (forearm) in the rotation while Steele is on the 15-day injured list, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    Advice: Ross believes Steele will only miss two turns through the rotation. Wesneski opened the year as a starter for the Cubs, but the right-hander struggled to a 5.03 ERA before being demoted to Triple-A Iowa in the middle of May. Wesneski has shown the ability to miss bats, but he'll be a risky fantasy streamer while he's a member of the rotation, and it doesn't appear this will be a long-term appointment.

  • Justin Turner getting breather on Saturday night
    Justin Turner is not in the Red Sox starting lineup for the nightcap of Saturday's doubleheader against the Rays.

    Advice: Turner went 2-for-5 and delivered a three-run double in the first game on Saturday, so he had earned a breather in the nightcap. Masataka Yoshida will function as the designated hitter in the nightcap while Triston Casas starts at first base for the Red Sox. NBCSportsEDGE.com Today, 5:05 pm
