    • Ian Happ hits rare opposite-field homer in loss
      Ian Happ had a two-run homer and a bases-loaded walk Friday to supply three of the Cubs’ four runs against the Reds.

      Advice: Happ’s 364-foot homer, hit as a left-hander to the most generous part of Wrigley in left-center, was his first to the opposite field since 2022. He has four homers in six games after totaling just two in 47 games to start the year. Rotoworld Today, 2:40 pm

    • Lars Nootbaar (oblique) to miss several weeks
      Cardinals’ manager Oli Marmol told reporters on Friday that Lars Nootbaar is dealing with a moderate oblique strain and is expected to miss several weeks.

      Advice: It won’t be a minimum stint on the injured list for the 26-year-old outfielder this time around. It sounds like he’s looking at an extended absence and will then require a minor league rehab assignment before he’s able to return to the Cardinals’ outfield. Look for Alec Burleson to see increased action in Nootbaar’s absence. Rotoworld Today, 1:40 pm
       
    • Facing long-term absence
      Manager Oli Marmol said Friday that Nootbar (oblique) is expected to miss several weeks, John Denton of MLB.com

      Advice: On top of what seems to be a multi-week absence, Nootbar will need at least a week-long rehab assignment in the minors, meaning the 26-year-old may miss the entirety of June. While he's sidelined, Alec Burleson should serve as St. Louis' everyday right fielder while Matt Carpenter should see the brunt of the DH work. Rotowire.com Today, 1:29 pm
       
    • Cardinals placed OF Lars Nootbaar on 10-day IL
      Cardinals placed OF Lars Nootbaar on the 10-day IL with an oblique strain.

      Advice: The move is retroactive to May 30th. Nootbaar felt something in his side after taking a swing and was removed from Wednesday’s game. Now he lands on the injured list and will be sidelined for at least 10 days. Alec Burleson and Dylan Carlson will see increased playing time in the outfield in Nootbaar’s stead.

    • Lands on IL with oblique strain
      The Cardinals placed Nootbaar on the 10-day injured list Friday, retroactive to May 30, with a left oblique strain.

      Advice: Nootbaar suffered the injury on a check swing during Wednesday's win over the Reds. It's the outfielder's second stint on the IL this season, as he previously missed time with two fractured ribs. The timing is poor, as Nootbaar was slashing .313/.418/.552 with four home runs over his last 79 plate appearances. With Nootbaar out, Alec Burleson will play more in the outfield and Matt Carpenter will see time at designated hitter. Rotowire.com Today, 9:10 am
       
    • Triple, three RBI in win
      Soto went 1-for-3 with a triple and three RBI in Thursday's win over the Angels while also drawing two walks.

      Advice: The right fielder walked in his second plate appearance before coming around to score on a home run from Aaron Judge. Soto would later add a bases-loaded triple in the seventh as he reached base three times for the second consecutive game. He's up to 24 RBI in the month of May, and his 49 RBI on the season have him tied for second in MLB with Marcell Ozuna, behind only Jose Ramirez's 57. Rotowire.com Today, 6:47 am

    • Juan Soto triples home three against Angels
      Juan Soto hit a three-run triple to help the Yankees to a win Thursday over the Angels.

      Advice: Soto also drew a pair of walks. The three-run triple extended New York’s lead to 7-1, and gave the 25-year-old 49 RBI; tying him for second in the majors. Soto has been outstanding in his first year in pinstripes, and there’s loads of reasons to believe he’ll continue this good run over the next 100-plus games. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:24 pm

    • Sitting Thursday
      McCormick isn't in the Astros' lineup for Thursday's game against Seattle, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: McCormick had sat out three games in a row before returning to Houston's lineup Wednesday, but an 0-for-4 performance will put him back on the bench for Thursday's series finale. Yordan Alvarez, Jake Meyers and Mauricio Dubon will start across the outfield while McCormick sits. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:37 am

    • Logs ninth steal
      Fraley went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Cardinals.

      Advice: Fraley swiped his ninth base of the season while extending a hit streak to five games (6-for-19). He's on pace for a second consecutive 20-steal season but has just seven extra-base hits in 134 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:22 am
