    • Homers in return
      Gurriel went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Mets.

      Advice: Gurriel, who was scratched from Saturday's game, made an immediate impact in his return to the starting lineup. He and Ketel Marte put Arizona up early with solo homers in the first inning. The home run was Gurriel's seventh of the season and first in 11 games. He's slumped since the end of April, batting just .182 with two home runs and 10 RBI over the last 32 games. Rotowire.com Today, 5:10 am
       
    • Collects three hits in loss
      Bellinger went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Reds.

      Advice: Bellinger played well but the rest of Chicago's lineup could only muster five hits overall, which limited his ability to collect counting stats. The 28-year-old is batting .318 over his last 10 games with a home run, four runs scored and five RBI. If Bellinger gets more support from his teammates, he could really take off across the board, though he should have plenty of fantasy value either way given his ability to hit the ball over the fall and swipe a base on occasion.

    • Idle against lefty
      Merrill is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Merrill will watch from the bench as lefty Cole Ragans gets the start for Kansas City. Jose Azocar will fill in for Merrill in center field. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:40 am
       
    • Taking seat against southpaw
      Pederson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.

      Advice: Pederson will end up hitting the bench for the final two games of the series while the Mets brought left-handed starters to the hill Saturday (Sean Manaea) and Sunday (Jose Quintana). With Pederson out of the lineup, Eugenio Suarez will get a day off in the field and will serve as Arizona's designated hitter. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:59 am
       
    • Good to go Sunday
      Gurriel (illness) will start in left field and bat third Sunday against the Mets.

      Advice: The veteran outfielder was scratched from Saturday's lineup due to flu-like symptoms, but he's back in the starting nine for Sunday's series finale in Queens. Gurriel had a rough time at the plate in May and finished the month with a .213/.245/.287 slash line in 25 games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:48 am
       
    • Reaches twice in loss
      Greene went 2-for-4 with a run scored and an RBI in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Red Sox.

      Advice: That's consecutive two-hit games for Greene, who has his batting average up to .244. While that's a dip from the .288 figure he recorded last season, he's sitting with an identical .796 OPS so far thanks to an early power surge. Greene has blasted 10 home runs across 57 games after going deep only 11 times in 99 games last year. The 23-year-old seems primed to set a new career high in long balls in 2024, and it could happen soon if he stays locked in at the plate. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:00 am
       
    • Scratched Saturday
      Gurriel was scratched from Arizona's lineup ahead of Saturday's game versus the Mets.

      Advice: It isn't immediately clear why Gurriel was taken out of the lineup, but the Diamondbacks should provide more information on his status relatively soon. In the meantime, Jake McCarthy will start in left field and bat eighth. Rotowire.com Saturday, 10:45 am
       
    • Lourdes Gurriel Jr. scratched from Saturday’s lineup
      Lourdes Gurriel Jr. has been scratched from Saturday’s lineup.

      Advice: No word yet on the reason for the change. It’ll be Jake McCarthy taking over in left field on Saturday afternoon against the Mets at Citi Field. Rotoworld Saturday, 10:42 am
       
    • Idle against southpaw
      Pederson isn't in Arizona's lineup for Saturday's game against the Mets.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Pederson will retreat to the dugout Saturday as lefty Sean Manaea draws the start on the mound for New York. Ketel Marte will fill in as the D-backs' DH while Blaze Alexander starts at second base. Rotowire.com Saturday, 9:38 am
