    • Absence continues as expected
      Riley (side) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Atlanta manager Brian Snitker said Friday that Riley likely won't return to action until Monday versus Washington, so it's no surprise the third baseman will sit for the 13th straight game due to an intercostal strain. Zack Short will receive another start at the hot corner in the series finale at Pittsburgh. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:44 am

    • Austin Riley (side) remains out of lineup Sunday
      Austin Riley (side) is not in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Pirates.

      Advice: That makes 13 straight games that Riley will miss due to his side soreness. The infielder will take a seat again with Zack Short drawing another start at the hot corner. Riley’s next chance to start will come Monday against the Nationals. Rotoworld Sunday, 7:34 am

    • Still out Sunday
      Candelario (neck) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

      Advice: Candelario will miss out on a second straight start due to neck stiffness, but he said he'll be available off the bench for the series finale, per Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer. Santiago Espinal will fill in at third base for Candelario. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:10 am
       
    • Jeimer Candelario out Sunday with neck issue
      Jeimer Candelario (neck) is out Sunday against the Dodgers.

      Advice: Candelario was scratched from the lineup Saturday with stiffness in his neck, and he’ll miss at least one more game. Santiago Espinal gets the start in Candelario’s absence. Rotoworld Sunday, 7:08 am
       
    • Scratched Saturday
      Candelario was scratched from the Reds' lineup Saturday due to neck stiffness.

      Advice: The Reds haven't provided any information on the severity of Candelario's injury, but it is apparently bothering him enough to hold him out of Saturday's contest. Santiago Espinal will enter the lineup to cover third base while batting ninth. Rotowire.com Saturday, 3:21 pm
       
    • Jeimer Candelario scratched due to neck stiffness
      Jeimer Candelario was scratched from the Reds’ starting lineup on Saturday due to stiffness in his neck.

      Advice: The issue is believed to be minor and the 30-year-old infielder is considered day-to-day. Santiago Espinal will start in his place at the hot corner and will bat ninth for the Reds against Walker Buehler and the Dodgers on Saturday evening in Cincinnati.

    • Austin Riley (side) out for 12th consecutive game
      Austin Riley (side) remains out of the lineup for Saturday’s showdown against the Pirates.

      Advice: Yikes. Riley has progressed to taking batting practice without any issues, but it appears the Braves don’t want to take any chances here. Atlanta manager Brian Snitker told reports Friday that he doesn’t expect Riley back until Monday’s series opener against the Nationals. The 27-year-old fantasy star hasn’t played since May 12 and will miss his 12th consecutive contest on Saturday afternoon at PNC Park. It’ll be Zack Short drawing another start at the hot corner in his absence. Rotoworld Saturday, 10:14 am

    • Sitting as expected
      Riley (side) isn't in Atlanta's lineup for Saturday's game against the Pirates.

      Advice: Manager Brian Snitker said Friday that Riley is likely to sit out until Atlanta begins its series against the Nationals on Monday, so the third baseman's absence Saturday isn't too surprising. Zack Short will continue starting at third base while Riley misses his 12th consecutive game. Rotowire.com Saturday, 10:10 am
