    • Nolan Jones dealing with right knee soreness
      Nolan Jones (back) has paused a minor league rehab assignment with Triple-A Albuquerque due to right knee soreness.

      Advice: Jones underwent a precautionary MRI that came back clean, but will still have his rehab assignment paused for at least a few days to rest and recover before getting back into game action. The 26-year-old slugger has been on the shelf since late April due to a lower back strain after slashing a lackluster .170/.243/.277 with one homer and two steals in 26 contests.

    • Rehab halted
      Jones (back) has had his rehab assignment at Triple-A Albuquerque paused because of right knee soreness stemming from a slide, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: A MRI came back clean for Jones, who hasn't played for Albuquerque since Friday. The outfielder was placed on the 10-day injured list April 30 with a lower-back strain and had just started his rehab assignment Wednesday. It seemed like the 26-year-old was nearing a return and was trending toward being activated after Albuquerque's game Sunday, but this latest development scuttled that timeline.

    • Taking seat Tuesday
      Carter is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Carter will avoid a matchup with southpaw Ranger Suarez on Tuesday. Instead, Ezequiel Duran, Leody Taveras and Derek Hill will fill the outfield. Rotowire.com Today, 12:41 pm
       
    • Lane Thomas starting rehab assignment in Double-A
      Lane Thomas (knee) is beginning a rehab assignment Tuesday with Double-A Harrisburg.

      Advice: Thomas has been on the injured list since near the end of April due to a sprained left MCL. The outfielder will likely need a week or so of rehab appearances, but then could return to the Washington lineup near the end of May. Thomas got off to a slow start prior to the injury, but was a solid fantasy option in 2023. Rotoworld Today, 5:43 am

    • Could be activated Friday
      Thomas (knee) will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Harrisburg on Tuesday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

      Advice: Thomas is set to play Tuesday and Wednesday before being reevaluated. Assuming all goes well, it would set him up to be activated ahead of the Nationals' weekend series against the Mariners. Thomas has missed nearly a month of action with a Grade 2 MCL sprain of his left knee. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:18 pm

    • On base three times Sunday
      Springer went 1-for-2 with two walks, a double, two runs scored and an RBI in Sunday's win over the Rays.

      Advice: Dropped to sixth in the batting order over the weekend, Springer responded to the move by getting on base three times, leading to his first multi-run performance since April 14. The veteran outfielder hasn't had a multi-hit game since April 24 though, slashing .156/.214/.203 in 17 contests since then without a homer. Until his bat wakes up, Springer will likely remain in the bottom half of the order. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:20 am

    • Hitless in return
      Carter started in left field and went 0-for-4 in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Angels.

      Advice: Carter returned to the starting lineup for the first time since May 8 after dealing with lower-back soreness. He had served as a pinch hitter in each of the previous two games and played left field for the final six innings of Saturday's 13-inning win. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:42 am
       
    • Back in lineup Sunday
      Carter (back) is in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

      Advice: Carter has been available off the bench for the last two games against Los Angeles, but he will return to left field for the first time since May 8 as Texas finishes out its series. The lefty-batting outfielder is slashing .211/.301/.406 with 15 RBI and five home runs across 142 plate appearances so far this season. Rotowire.com Sunday, 8:47 am
       
    • Evan Carter returns to lineup against Angels
      Evan Carter (back) is hitting seventh and playing left field against the Angels on Sunday.

      Advice: Carter will be back in the lineup after missing over a week with a lower-back issue. The rookie has been up-and-down thus far in 2024, but has the talent to be a major fantasy contributor as long as he’s healthy enough to do so. Rotoworld Sunday, 8:34 am
