  • Cardinals activate Matt Carpenter on Saturday
    Cardinals activated DH Matt Carpenter from the 10-day injured list.

    Advice: Carpenter rejoins St. Louis’ struggling offensive mix following a five-week absence recovering from a right oblique strain. The 38-year-old can be safely ignored in all fantasy formats at this stage of his career. Rotoworld 19 minutes ago

  • Cardinals option José Fermín to Triple-A

  • Josh Lowe sitting against lefty on Saturday
    Josh Lowe is not in the lineup for Saturday’s showdown against the Yankees.

    Advice: Lowe has gone 4-for-13 through four contests since making his season debut earlier this week. He’ll take a seat on Saturday afternoon with crafty left-hander Nestor Cortes on the mound for New York. The 26-year-old fantasy stalwart figures to continue sitting against southpaws, but will do enough damage against right-handed pitching to make up for it. Rotoworld 25 minutes ago

  • Jung Hoo Lee (foot) not in Saturday’s lineup
    Jung Hoo Lee (foot) remains absent from the lineup for Saturday’s contest against the Reds.

    Advice: There was optimism Lee would be ready to return this weekend, but it sounds like he’s going to get some extra time to rest and recover from some lingering foot soreness. The positive news here is that the 25-year-old rookie outfielder hasn’t landed on the injured list, but he’s out of the lineup for a third straight contest. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. It’ll be Tyler Fitzgerald drawing another start in center field. Rotoworld 29 minutes ago
