    • Avoids serious injury, still on IL
      An MRI on Friday revealed Heyward is dealing with a left knee contusion that will require a stint on the injured list, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Heyward got some good news Friday, as the MRI showed no structural damage in his left knee. Still, Heyward will hit the IL, leaving a roster spot for open for James Outman. Although he'll be out for over a week, Heyward could be back after the All-Star break. Rotowire.com Today, 4:27 pm

    • Rejoins big-league club
      The Dodgers recalled Outman from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: With Jason Heyward (knee) headed for the injured list, Outman will get the call back to Los Angeles in order to replenish the Dodgers' outfield depth. Since being demoted to Triple-A in May, the 27-year-old has slashed .285/.396/.556 with 10 homers and 22 RBI in 182 plate appearances. He isn't likely to see regular playing time while Heyward is sidelined, but there's a chance Outman makes an occasional start against right-handed pitchers in order to give one of the usual starters a breather.

    • Getting Friday off
      Bauers isn't in the Brewers' lineup for Friday's game versus the Dodgers.

    • Not facing lefty
      Kjerstad is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Athletics.

      Advice: Kjerstad will take a seat Friday with southpaw Hogan Harris on the mound for Oakland. Austin Hays, Colton Cowser and Anthony Santander will fill the outfield from left to right. Rotowire.com Today, 4:16 pm
       
    • Idle vs. southpaw
      O'Hearn is not in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against the Athletics.

      Advice: O'Hearn will retreat to the bench Friday with Oakland sending southpaw Hogan Harris to the mound. O'Hearn is coming off an 0-for-4 appearance with two strikeouts in Thursday's 7-3 loss to the Mariners, but since June 1 he is slashing .326/.381/.516 with four home runs and 19 RBI over 95 at-bats. Adley Rutschman will serve as the designated hitter Friday and bat second. Rotowire.com Today, 4:16 pm

    • Dodgers recall James Outman from Triple-A OKC
      Dodgers recalled OF James Outman from Triple-A Oklahoma City.

      Advice: The 27-year-old outfielder will replace the injured Jason Heyward (knee) on the Dodgers’ active roster. Outman really struggled during his time with the Dodgers to start the season (slashing .147/.250/.266 in 109 at-bats), but we’ve seen what he’s capable of during his breakout 2023 season. If he sees regular action against right-handed pitching while Heyward is shelved, he could be worth a look in deeper mixed leagues. Rotoworld Today, 4:16 pm
       
    • Dodgers place Jason Heyward (knee) on IL
      Dodgers placed OF Jason Heyward on the 10-day injured list with a left knee contusion.

      Advice: Heyward underwent a precautionary MRI exam on Friday that showed his meniscus and ligaments are intact, but the Dodgers still thought it was best to allow him a couple of weeks to heal up. James Outman was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City in a corresponding move on Friday. Rotoworld Today, 4:15 pm

    • Idle against southpaw
      Mullins is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Oakland.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Mullins will avoid a matchup with LHP Hogan Harris on Friday, giving way to Colton Cowser in center field. Mullins is slashing .220/.265/.388 with nine homers and 16 stolen bases across 268 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 4:13 pm
       
    • Heston Kjerstad sits against left-hander on Friday
      Heston Kjerstad is not in the Orioles’ starting lineup for Friday night’s battle against the Athletics in Oakland.

      Advice: Once again the 25-year-old slugger finds himself on the sideline with an opposing left-hander on the hill. Austin Hays will start in left field for the Orioles on Friday night and will bat sixth against Hogan Harris and the Athletics. Rotoworld Today, 4:07 pm
