  • Could miss multiple days
    Arcia (head) got checked out at a local hospital Tuesday after continuing to feel unwell Monday night, and while tests came back negative, the shortstop could be sidelined for multiple days, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. "We'll probably give him two or three days," manager Brian Snitker said prior to Tuesday's game in St. Louis being rained out.

    Advice: Arcia left Monday's 4-3 loss to St. Louis due to dizziness that was initially attributed to dehydration, although no official diagnosis has been announced. Atlanta is set to play a doubleheader Wednesday against the Cardinals following the rainout, but Arcia could end up sitting for the entire twin bill if he's still not feeling 100 percent. Zack Short will handle shortstop duties until he's ready to return, and Luke Williams was called up from Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday to provide depth at the position.

  • Third homer of June
    Benintendi went 1-for-3 with two walks and a two-run home run Tuesday against the Dodgers.

    Advice: Benintendi helped the White Sox get off to a hot start, as he delivered his home run in the first inning. He has been limited to 11 games in June due to an Achilles injury, but Benintendi has enjoyed a productive month by homering three times, driving in five and scoring five runs while also maintaining a .286 batting average. Despite the productive stretch, he still has just a .249 wOBA and 58 wRC+ across 233 plate appearances on the season. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 10:23 pm
     
  • Brett Wisely finishes 2-for-4 in Giants’ victory
    Brett Wisely went 2-for-4 with a run scored from the leadoff spot in the Giants’ 5-1 defeat of the Cubs on Tuesday.

    Advice: Wisely’s second hit, a 403-foot double to left-center, would have been a homer in 29 of 30 ballparks and really a no-doubter in most of them. Oracle Park isn’t built that way, though. Wisely, who has turned into the Giants’ shortstop versus righties, is batting an impressive .301/.333/.441 in 99 plate appearances. Rotoworld Tuesday, 9:43 pm

  • Trevor Larnach goes 0-for-4 in loss to Arizona
    Trevor Larnach went 0-for-4 and grounded into a double play against the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

    Advice: Larnach hit three balls over 100 mph tonight, but he had no luck with any of them. He’s batting just .218/.254/.382 this month on the heels of an already poor May, and one wonders if the Twins might have him and Matt Wallner, who has been red hot in Triple-A, swap spots in the near future.

  • Benintendi homers as White Sox fall to Dodgers
    Andrew Benintendi went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in Tuesday’s loss to the Dodgers



    Advice: Trailing 1-0 in the bottom of the first after a leadoff homer by Shohei Ohtani, Benintendi put the White Sox on top when he smacked a two-run homer to deep right field to score Tommy Pham and give the White Sox a 2-1 lead. That lead didn’t prove to be enough, as the Dodgers bounced back courtesy of a two-run homer by Freddie Freeman and an RBI single by Ohtani. Benintendi is batting just .203 on the season with six home runs and 22 RBI. He’s well off the fantasy radar at this time. Rotoworld Tuesday, 8:38 pm
     
  • Back in starting nine
    Kepler (neck) will start in right field and bat cleanup in Tuesday's game in Arizona.

    Advice: Kepler missed three starts while battling neck spasms, but he's ready to give it a go following Monday's team off day. The veteran outfielder comes into action Tuesday with just a .548 OPS in June, although he has homered twice in his previous five contests. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:02 pm
     
  • Max Kepler returns to lineup Tuesday vs. D-backs
    Max Kepler (neck) is back in the lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Kepler is back in right field and batting cleanup on Tuesday night out at Chase Field in Arizona following a three-game absence due to neck spasms. The 31-year-old corner outfielder holds a pedestrian .733 OPS with six homers and one steal in 207 plate appearances over 55 games this season. Rotoworld Tuesday, 1:56 pm
     
  • On bench as expected
    Arcia (head) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cardinals.

    Advice: Arcia was expected to miss Tuesday's game after being lifted from Monday's contest due to dizziness. Zack Short will fill in at shortstop and Arcia should be considered day-to-day moving forward. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 1:34 pm
     
  • Taking seat Tuesday
    Urias is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Guardians, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Advice: Urias had drawn three consecutive starts at third base, but he'll give way to Jordan Westburg on Tuesday. During those three starts, Urias went 0-for-10 and snapped a seven-game hit streak. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 11:35 am
