    • Moves rehab to Triple-A
      Foscue (oblique) was transferred to Triple-A Round Rock on Thursday to continue his rehab assignment.

      Advice: Foscue went 7-for-17 with one home run in six games with the Rangers' Arizona Complex League affiliate after missing two months with a left oblique strain. He could be ready for activation soon, but Foscue isn't a given to rejoin the major-league roster at that time. Rotowire.com 33 minutes ago

    • Resting against lefty
      Biggio is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Rockies.

      Advice: Biggio will join fellow left-handed hitters Gavin Lux and Jason Heyward on the bench for the series finale in Colorado while the Rockies send southpaw Ty Blach to the hill. Enrique Hernandez will enter the lineup at third base as Biggio's replacement. Rotowire.com Today, 9:39 am

    • Exiting lineup Thursday
      Cabbage is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the White Sox, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

      Advice: Chas McCormick will get the nod in right field Thursday, and he and Cabbage have now picked up six starts apiece at the position since Kyle Tucker bruised his right shin earlier this month and eventually landed on the injured list. Houston should continue to deploy a timeshare between the lefty-hitting Cabbage and the righty-hitting McCormick at the position until Tucker is back in action, but manager Joe Espada doesn't seem to be running a strict platoon.

    • Tyler Locklear starting at 1B on Thursday
      Tyler Locklear is playing first base for the Mariners on Thursday.

      Advice: With the Mariners facing left-hander Logan Allen, Locklear will play first base and Ty France will be at designated hitter with Luke Raley sliding to the bench. The Mariners kept Locklear on the roster with France being activated, so it appears Locklear will be in the starting lineup against left-handed pitchers moving forward. The Mariners will also start Victor Robles in left field and Ryan Bliss at second base with Dominic Canzone and Josh Rojas moving to the bench against a lefty. Rotoworld Today, 8:07 am
       
    • Sitting against lefty
      Raley is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Guardians.

      Advice: With lefty Logan Allen on the hill for Cleveland, Raley and fellow left-handed-hitting regulars Dominic Canzone and Josh Rojas will retreat to the bench. Victor Robles will step in for Raley as the Mariners' starting left fielder. Rotowire.com Today, 7:55 am
       
    • Lifts fourth homer
      Urias went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 7-6 extra-inning win over the Yankees.

      Advice: Urias went deep in the fifth inning for his first homer since June 3. The infielder has hit safely in his last six games, going 8-for-23 (.348) in that span. He had to settle for a utility role early in the year, but he's been staking a larger claim with strong hitting in June. For the season, Urias is slashing .252/.298/.421 with four homers, 10 RBI, 15 runs scored and no stolen bases over 114 plate appearances. He may be set for a short-term bump in playing time if Jordan Westburg (hip) has to sit out more games following his injury Tuesday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:12 pm

    • Spencer Horwitz with two hits out of lead-off spot
      Spencer Horwitz went 2-for-4 with a walk on Wednesday against the Red Sox.

      Advice: The Blue Jays are giving Horwitz an opportunity at the top of their lineup as he’s hit first or second in all 10 of his starts since being called-up. He’s done well there, too with more walks than strikeouts and a .353/.450/.412 slash line so far. There isn’t much power, but getting on base at the top of any lineup is valuable.

    • Brandon Drury scratched with illness on Wednesday
      Brandon Drury was scratched from the Angels’ starting lineup on Wednesday night due to illness.

      Advice: The 31-year-old infielder had just returned from the injured list on Monday, so it’s encouraging to hear that it’s just an illness keeping him out of action and not a recurrence of his hamstring issue. He should be considered day-to-day. Rotoworld Yesterday, 4:43 pm
       
    • Scratched with illness
      Drury was scratched from the Angels' lineup ahead of Wednesday's game versus Milwaukee due to an illness, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Drury has gone 1-for-6 with a walk since returning from the injured list Monday, but he'll be sidelined once again Wednesday as he fights off an illness. Luis Guillorme will instead start at the keystone and bat ninth versus right-hander Freddy Peralta. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:38 pm
