    • Logs steal in loss
      Ahmed went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Angels.

      Advice: Ahmed has gone 3-for-7 over two games since he returned from a five-week absence due to a wrist injury. It looks like he'll reclaim a starting job at shortstop, though the Angels have faced a pair of southpaws since Ahmed's return. The righty-hitting infielder was starting prior to his injury, but lefty-hitting Brett Wisely has batted .311 and saw a large share of playing time while Ahmed was out. Ahmed is slashing .248/.282/.299 with no home runs, one steal, 11 RBI and 10 runs scored over 126 plate appearances this season and is primarily valued for his defense rather than his bat.

    • Stays warm with three-hit game
      Rafaela went 3-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Saturday's 8-4 win over the Yankees.

      Advice: This was Rafaela's third multi-hit effort over his last four games. He's gone eight contests without an RBI, though he also has just two extra-base hits in that span. The 23-year-old continues to trend in the right direction -- his .230 batting average is the highest mark he's achieved since April 7. He's added a .634 OPS, seven home runs, eight stolen bases, 37 RBI and 33 runs scored through 70 games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:00 pm
       
    • Nick Gonzales lifts homer in blowout loss to COL
      Nick Gonzales homered and drove home two runs in a loss to the Rockies on Saturday.

      Advice: Gonzales tied the game at 1-1 with a solo homer off Ty Blach in the fourth frame. The former top prospect has been able to pick up five homers in his 117 at-bats, and that roundtripper along with an RBI on a fielder’s choice give him 25 on the year.

    • Homers in loss
      Sosa went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 6-2 loss to the Orioles on Saturday.

      Advice: Sosa gave the Phillies an early 2-0 lead when he homered off Grayson Rodriguez in the second inning. Sosa hit .306 in May with three home runs, but he has gone just 8-for-37 with one long ball in June. According to Matt Gelb of The Athletic, Trea Turner's return is looming, which means Sosa will likely return to a bench role in the coming days. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:54 pm
       
    • Edmundo Sosa goes yard in loss to Orioles
      Edmundo Sosa went 1-for-4 with a solo homer against the Orioles on Saturday.

      Advice: Sosa led off the second inning with a solo shot off Grayson Rodriguez for the second of two runs the Phillies would score on the day. The 28-year-old infielder is hitting a solid .280/.343/.512 with five homers, 24 runs scored, 19 RBI, and two steals across 138 plate appearances as he fills in for Trea Turner at shortstop.

    • On bench Saturday
      Lopez is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: The White Sox will turn to Danny Mendick at second base Saturday with southpaw Tommy Henry expected to pitch in bulk relief for Arizona. Lopez is batting .244 with a pair of RBI over 10 games in June. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:15 pm

    • Cut by Angels
      Adrianza (back) was released by the Angels on Saturday.

      Advice: Adrianza has been out since early May with back spasms and he'll now have to prove his health before potentially signing with a new team down the road. In a corresponding move, the Angels selected the contract of Jose Marte from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:24 pm
       
    • Angels release infielder Ehire Adrianza
      Angels released INF Ehire Adrianza.

    • Absent from lineup
      Lopez is not in the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Nationals.

      Advice: Lopez has been operating as the Marlins' primary second baseman, but his production has slowed in June with just a .477 OPS. He'll get a day off to regroup while Vidal Brujan handles the keystone. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:58 am
