  • 35-31-4 5th Place
    • Reinstated from IL
      Alexander (ribs) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

      Advice: Alexander was placed on the 15-day injured list at the end of March with a left rib contusion. The left-hander fired a scoreless seventh inning with a strikeout in his most recent rehab assignment for Triple-A Las Vegas. With his return, Tyler Ferguson was optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move Tuesday. Rotowire.com 5 minutes ago
       
    • A’s activate Scott Alexander for Tuesday return
      Athletics activated LHP Scott Alexander from the 15-day injured list.

      Advice: Alexander will make his Oakland debut following a seven-week stint on the injured list at the outset of the season recovering from a stress reaction in his left ribs. The 34-year-old southpaw figures to pitch in middle relief intially, but could find himself in the late-inning mix at some point. Rotoworld 12 minutes ago
       
    • Plays catch Tuesday
      Almonte was seen playing catch Tuesday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Almonte has been dealing with a right shoulder strain but has resumed throwing after being shut down for nearly two weeks. It's unclear if he'll need a rehab assignment, but he'll likely be out for at least another week. Rotowire.com 12 minutes ago
       
    • Cleared for batting practice
      Conforto (hamstring) has been cleared to take on-field batting practice, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

      Advice: Conforto landed on the 10-day injured list just over a week ago a right hamstring strain. Taking batting practice is certainly a positive step in his recovery, although running will be a bigger hurdle for him to clear and it's uncertain when he might be ready for that. Conforto is eligible for activation Wednesday, but it would appear he'll need a little more time than that. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago
       
    • Starting rehab assignment
      Palencia (shoulder) will begin his rehab assignment Tuesday at Triple-A Iowa, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Palencia was placed on the IL on May 7 with a shoulder strain and will make his first in-game appearance since sustaining the injury. It's unclear how many rehab appearances Palencia will need before being able to return. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago
       
    • Luis Matos batting third on Tuesday vs. Pirates
      Luis Matos is batting third on Tuesday against the Pirates.

      Advice: Giants manager Bob Melvin has bumped a sizzling-hot Matos up to the heart of the order for the first time this season. The 22-year-old former top prospect has batted a sublime .385 (10-for-26) with two homers and a staggering 16 RBI in seven contests since returning to the majors back on May 12. He’s absolutely worthy of a speculative roster spot in all fantasy formats, despite some lackluster underlying quality of contact metrics. Rotoworld 16 minutes ago
       
    • Making rehab start
      Smyly (hip) will make a rehab start Tuesday with High-A South Bend, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Smyly is set for his first rehab appearance since suffering a pinched nerve in his right hip back in April. It's unclear how long of a rehab stint is required, but Smyly should be on pace to return in late May or early June. Rotowire.com 17 minutes ago

    • Idle against lefty
      Yastrzemski is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Yastrzemski will avoid a matchup with southpaw Martin Perez on Tuesday. Instead, Ryan McKenna will bat seventh and play right field. Rotowire.com 23 minutes ago
