  • Wyatt Langford (leg) not in lineup Sunday vs. KC
    Wyatt Langford (leg) is not in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Royals.

  • Good to go Sunday
    Young (back) will start in center field and bat leadoff Sunday against the Blue Jays, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    Advice: The 24-year-old exited Friday's contest due to back spasms and didn't start Saturday, but he'll rejoin the lineup for Sunday's series finale. Young has gone just 2-for-10 over his past four games but has a .311/.354/.378 slash line with 12 steals in 81 plate appearances on the season. Rotowire.com 59 minutes ago
     
  • Reinstated, batting fifth Sunday
    Carlson (shoulder) was activated from the 10-day injured list and is starting in center field and batting fifth Sunday against the White Sox.

    Advice: The 25-year-old missed the first five weeks of the season due to a sprained left shoulder, but he's back with the Cardinals after going 3-for-11 with three walks and a solo homer during a four-game rehab stint with Triple-A Memphis. Carlson should step in as St. Louis' primary center fielder, at least until Tommy Edman (wrist) makes his own return from the injured list. Rotowire.com Today, 8:26 am

  • Out of Sunday's lineup
    Martinez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at Tampa Bay.

    Advice: Manager Carlos Mendoza will continue the trend of sitting Martinez for the series finale, which is now the case for the third straight series since the veteran slugger made his season debut April 26. DJ Stewart will bat fifth as the designated hitter Sunday. Rotowire.com Today, 8:13 am
     
  • Cardinals activate Dylan Carlson off injured list
    Cardinals activated OF Dylan Carlson off the 10-day injured list.

    Advice: Carlson is off the injured list, and the 25-year-old is hitting fifth while playing center field in his debut. The outfielder missed just around a month after injuring his shoulder in a crash during spring training. Carlson helps the Cardinals’ depth, but the former top prospect hasn’t had much offensive success at the highest level just yet. Fantasy managers should take a wait-and-see approach.

  • Nelson Velazquez out of action Sunday vs. Rangers
    Nelson Velazquez is not in the starting lineup for Sunday’s game against the Rangers.

    Advice: Velazquez has not found much success in 2024 with an OPS of just .635 over 92 at-bats, and he’ll retreat to the bench against right-hander Jon Grey on Sunday. Salvador Perez will lineup at designated hitter while hitting in his usual fourth spot in the lineup while Freddy Fermin gets the start behind the plate. Rotoworld Today, 8:08 am
     
  • Steven Kwan out Sunday due to hamstring tightness
    Steven Kwan (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup for Sunday’s game against the Angels.

    Advice: Kwan left Saturday with hamstring tightness, and it’s not surprising to see him out of the lineup for the series finale. With the 26-year-old out of action, the Guardians will have Will Brennan play in left field, which Estevan Florial will act as designated hitter and hit in Kwan’s leadoff spot. For now, he should be considered day-to-day. Rotoworld Today, 8:02 am

  • Won't start Sunday
    Kwan (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

    Advice: Kwan is out of the lineup for just the second time all season, with his absence coming as no surprise after he was removed from Saturday's 7-1 win left hamstring tightness. The 26-year-old is slated to undergo an MRI on Sunday, but the Guardians have yet to provide an update on the findings from those tests. Until the team offers more clarity on his status, Kwan should be viewed as day-to-day heading into Cleveland's upcoming seven-game week. Rotowire.com Today, 7:57 am
