    • Keeps mashing
      Gonzales went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run during Thursday's 11-7 loss to the Dodgers.

      Advice: The second baseman launched his fourth homer of the season in the third inning, plating Oneil Cruz with a long ball off Walker Buehler. Gonzales has been red hot of late, gong 11-for-30 (.367) with two homers, two doubles and eight RBI in his last seven games. Rotowire.com Today, 7:16 am
       
    • Nick Gonzales hits fourth homer Thursday in loss
      Nick Gonzales went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer on Thursday in the Pirates’ loss to the Dodgers.

      Advice: Gonzales took Dodgers starter Walker Buehler deep in the early stages of the contest for his fourth long ball of the season. The 25-year-old infielder has been an unexpected revelation for Pittsburgh, batting .315 (28-for-89) with four homers and two steals in 24 games since arriving back in the majors last month.

    • Drives in four
      Gonzales went 2-for-3 with a two-RBI double, a sacrifice fly and an RBI single during Wednesday's 10-6 win over the Dodgers.

      Advice: Despite the Pirates putting up a 10-spot, Gonzales' two-RBI double in the second inning was Pittsburgh's lone extra-base hit on the day. His four RBI tied his career high, which was set May 24 against Atlanta. Before that, the 25-year-old hadn't generated more than two RBI in a game in his career. Wednesday's contest added to Gonzales' breakout campaign, as he's slashing .310/.355/.500 with 20 RBI, 12 runs and two stolen bases in 94 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:31 pm
       
    • Nick Gonzales knocks in four in win over Dodgers
      Nick Gonzales drove in four runs with a double, a single and a sac fly Wednesday as the Pirates bested the Dodgers 10-6.

      Advice: Gonzales is now tied for third on the Pirates with 20 RBI, even as he’s a distant 11th on the team with 90 plate appearances. The Pirates started him at shortstop for the second time tonight, as Oneil Cruz was sitting against a lefty. Gonzales definitely seems better off at second, but the versatility helps, especially since he probably isn’t going to keep up this pace offensively. Rotoworld Wednesday, 7:00 pm
       
    • Moving to second base
      Castro started at second base and went 0-for-2 with a walk in Tuesday's loss against the Yankees.

      Advice: Castro has played several positions this season and has moved frequently during games, but he's now set to start mostly at second base due to Edouard Julien being sent to Triple-A. He'll likely soon accumulate enough games at second base (three games played at second this season) to qualify at another position in most formats. (He's already played more than 10 games at third base, shortstop and outfield.) Rotowire.com Wednesday, 6:59 am

    • Rejoins starting nine
      Donovan (neck) will start in left field and bat sixth in Monday's game against the Astros.

      Advice: Donovan is back in action Monday after a stiff neck kept him out of the entirety of the Cardinals' three-game series with the Phillies over the weekend. The 27-year-old had been serving as the Cardinals' leadoff man against right-handed pitching prior to suffering the neck injury, but Donovan may have lost that role to Masyn Winn. The second-year shortstop will bat atop the order in the series opener in Houston while Donovan drops to sixth against Astros righty Justin Verlander. Rotowire.com Monday, 3:10 pm

    • Rare day off Monday
      McMahon is out of the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Reds, Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette reports.

      Advice: McMahon will get a breather for just the second time all season as the Rockies open up a three-game set with the Reds. Alan Trejo will receive a start at third base Monday against lefty Andrew Abbott while McMahon rests up. Rotowire.com Monday, 12:56 pm

    • Brendan Donovan returns to Cards’ lineup on Monday
      Brendan Donovan (neck) returned to the Cardinals’ starting lineup for Monday’s series opener against the Astros.

      Advice: Donovan missed the club’s entire weekend series against the Phillies due to stiffness in his neck. He’ll start in left field and bat sixth for the Cardinals against Astros’ right-hander Justin Verlander on Monday evening in Houston. He returns to a .245/.326/.382 slash line with four homers and 25 RBI through his first 233 plate appearances on the season. Rotoworld Monday, 12:52 pm

    • Ryan McMahon reaches three times in loss
      Ryan McMahon singled and drew a pair of walks as the Rockies were shut out by Gavin Stone and a host of Dodgers’ relievers on Sunday afternoon in Los Angeles.

      Advice: As a team, the Rockies totaled just five hits in the contest, with only one of them (a double by Charlie Blackmon) going for extra bases. McMahon continues to have a terrific season in the middle of the Rockies’ lineup — slashing .284/.371/.470 with 10 homers and 34 RBI. Rotoworld Sunday, 5:12 pm
