  • Gavin Sheets doubles and scores in loss
    Gavin Sheets went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored on Sunday against the Tigers.

    Advice: Sheets has been something of a bright spot in what’s otherwise been a very dim White Sox season. His strikeout rate has gone down for the fourth consecutive season and his .739 OPS leads the team. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:42 pm
     
  • Hitting streak up to 16
    Diaz went 3-for-4 with a solo home run Sunday against the Pirates.

    Advice: Diaz tagged Pirates starter Paul Skenes early, depositing the first pitch of the game off the foul pole in right field for his sixth homer of the season. He later led off the eighth with his third hit, which eventually saw pinch runner Jose Caballero cross the plate with the go-ahead run. Diaz extended his hitting streak to 16 games in the process, collecting his ninth multiple-hit effort during that stretch and fourth multi-hit game over the last five. He's batting 26-for-71 (.366) during the streak. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:25 pm
     
  • Luke Raley with three hits, homer in loss
    Luke Raley went 3-for-4 with a home run, two RBI, and two runs scored on Sunday against the Marlins.

    Advice: The Mariners were down 6-0 early Sunday and Raley did everything he could to drag them back in the game. He’s put a miserable April behind him and brought his full-season slash line up to .263/.310/.463 with nine home runs and five stolen bases. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:25 pm
     
  • Ben Rice with two hits in loss
    Ben Rice went 2-for-3 on Sunday against the Braves.

    Advice: Rice has been totally fine in his first week of play with a .294 average and the same number of walks as strikeouts. He’s yet to find his first extra-base hit yet but does not seem over-matched by major league pitching. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:07 pm
     
  • Battling elbow inflammation
    Fry was removed from Sunday's game against Toronto due to right elbow inflammation, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Fry ripped an RBI single during the first inning of Sunday's contest before being replaced behind the plate by Bo Naylor in the third. The Guardians are currently viewing Fry as day-to-day, though he will likely undergo further testing to determine the extent of his injury. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:16 pm

  • David Fry leaves game with elbow inflammation
    David Fry was removed from Sunday’s game against the Blue Jays due to right elbow inflammation.

    Advice: The positive news here is that Fry’s early exit isn’t related to a possible head injury or concussion. The bad news is that he’s probably going to be sent for some further evaluation and imaging to determine the extent of the issue. The 28-year-old backstop has been an unexpected revelation this season for fantasy managers, so the hope here is that his exit was merely for precautionary reasons. He’s presumably day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Yesterday, 12:09 pm

  • David Fry leaves game Sunday with possible injury
    David Fry made an early exit from Sunday’s game against the Blue Jays with a potential injury.

    Advice: MLB.com’s Henry Palattella adds that Fry was apparently struck in the head by a practice swing from Danny Jansen in the opening frame, so it’s highly likely he’s been lifted from the contest for precautinary reasons to undergo testing for a possible concussion. There should be an update on his status shortly. Rotoworld Yesterday, 11:34 am

  • Acquired by Yankees
    The Yankees acquired Davis and cash considerations from the Athletics on Sunday in exchange for infielder Jordan Groshans.

    Advice: After seeing his playing time steadily decrease, Davis was DFA'd by the Athletics on Monday. The Yankees will make room on the 40-man roster for Davis, marking the third organization he's been with since the start of spring training after the Athletics previously signed him following his release from the Giants in March. He appeared in 39 games for the Athletics before losing his roster spot, slashing .236/.304/.366 with four home runs and five RBI over 135 plate appearances. To make room for Davis on the 40-man roster, the Yankees transferred right-hander Nick Burdi (hip) to the 60-day injured list. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:06 am
     
  • Not starting Sunday
    Hoskins isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Sunday's game versus San Diego.

    Advice: Hoskins has tallied a base hit in each of his last five games, and he'll now get a day to rest versus Michael King and the Padres. Tyler Black will fill in as Milwaukee's first baseman and bat second. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:03 am
