• Idle against lefty
    Kirilloff is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: As per usual, Kirilloff will take a seat with Minnesota facing a left-handed pitcher (Patrick Corbin). Willi Castro will bat sixth and play left field. Rotowire.com 2 minutes ago
     
  • Taking seat Tuesday
    Taylor is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Giants.

    Advice: Ji Hwan Bae -- who was recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis earlier Tuesday -- will get the start in center field. Taylor has just a .544 OPS and a 35.8 percent strikeout for Pittsburgh this season. Rotowire.com 3 minutes ago
  • Takes seat against southpaw
    Julien is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: Julien will yield to Kyle Farmer at second base with lefty Patrick Corbin on the mound for the Nationals. Julien is 0-for-12 with five strikeouts since May 15. Rotowire.com 3 minutes ago
  • Sitting versus righty
    Tellez is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Giants.

    Advice: It's notable because the Pirates are facing a right-hander in Logan Webb. Tellez has started all but two games versus righties this season, but the two times he wasn't in the lineup have both come over the last week. With a .181/.250/.233 batting line in 44 contests this season, Tellez's time in Pittsburgh might be running out. Connor Joe will handle first base Tuesday. Rotowire.com 5 minutes ago
  • On bench again
    Kepler is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: The Twins are facing a lefty for the second straight day, meaning Kepler will give way to the righty-hitting Manuel Margot in right. Kepler is slashing .303/.352/.505 across 108 plate appearances this season. Rotowire.com 6 minutes ago
  • Boone: DJ LeMahieu ‘on track’ for May 28 return
    Aaron Boone told the Talkin’ Yanks podcast that he believes DJ LeMahieu (foot) is on track to return May 28.

    Advice: That would be next Tuesday, for those curious. LeMahieu has been out for the entirety of 2024 while recovering from his foot fracture. The 35-year-old is currently on a rehab assignment, and he’ll likely continue that assignment through the end of the week. LeMahieu hasn’t been a valuable fantasy player over the last few years, but hitting in the New York lineup does add some intrigue. Rotoworld 19 minutes ago

  • Elects free agency
    Crismatt elected free agency on May 17 after refusing an outright assignment by the Dodgers.

    Advice: Crismatt accepted an outright assignment by the Dodgers once earlier this season but decided not to do it again. He holds a 2.57 ERA and 6:0 K:BB over seven innings in the majors this season and is now free to sign with another organization. Rotowire.com 27 minutes ago
