    • Picks up steal Saturday
      Gimenez went 1-for-2 with a walk, a hit-by-pitch, a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Gimenez has been running well recently, picking up four steals over his last 10 games, but he's hit just .179 (7-for-39) with two walks in that span. The second baseman is up to 13 steals on 16 attempts this year. He's added a .255/.311/.353 slash line with five home runs, 37 RBI, 39 runs scored, 10 doubles and a triple over 303 plate appearances. Gimenez's playing time remains steady, but a significant drop in power and slight decline in speed have lowered his ceiling for fantasy purposes. Rotowire.com 32 minutes ago
       
    • Cruz blasts 10th home run in win Saturday
      Oneil Cruz went 1-for-3 with two runs scored, a walk and a solo home run against the Rays on Saturday.



      Advice: Cruz’ home run was his 10th of the year. The solo shot came against Rays starter Zach Eflin in the first inning with two outs. It was Cruz’ first home run since June 8th. While he hits the ball hard when he connects, Cruz’ 32 percent strikeout percentage is still quite high. Maybe he’ll get his power stroke going in the second half of the year to help prop up all the strikeouts.

    • Oneil Cruz homers, scores twice in win over Rays
      Oneil Cruz homered and scored two runs in a 4-2 win for the Pirates on Saturday.

      Advice: Cruz obliterated a Zack Eflin pitch for a 445-foot dinger to tie the game at 1-1 in the first. The 25-year-old also drew a walk and came around to score a few batters later. There are going to be ups and downs with Cruz, but the power is obviously legitimate, and helps mitigate some of the contact issues. Rotoworld Today, 3:16 pm
       
    • Idle Saturday
      Tatis (triceps) is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against Milwaukee.

      Advice: Tatis was hit by a pitch during Friday's game and was lifted from the contest. He'll remain on the bench to begin Saturday's game and is dealing with a bruised triceps. David Peralta will bat sixth and play right field. Rotowire.com Today, 1:16 pm
       
    • Fernando Tatis Jr. (triceps) held out of lineup
      Fernando Tatis Jr. (triceps) was held out of the Padres’ starting lineup for Saturday’s contest against the Brewers.

      Advice: The 25-year-old superstar was plunked on the left triceps with a pitch during Friday night’s affair against the Brewers. He walked away with only a contusion, but it sounds like he’ll need a day or two before he’s ready to return to the starting lineup. David Peralta will start in his place in right field and bat sixth for the Padres against Carlos Rodriguez and the Brewers. Rotoworld Today, 1:10 pm
       
    • Grifol: Eloy Jiménez (hamstring) might return Monday
      White Sox manager Pedro Grifol told reporters Eloy Jiménez (hamstring) could return on Monday.

      Advice: Jiménez has gotten a couple games under his belt in the Rookie-level Arizona Complex League and appears poised to return to Chicago early next week. The 27-year-old slugger has been out since mid-May due to a left hamstring strain. Rotoworld Today, 11:36 am

    • Could return Monday
      White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Saturday that Jiminez (hamstring) could be reinstated off the injured list as soon as Monday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

      Advice: Grifol noted that Jimenez is "up to 90 [percent] running, he's passed the test" when it comes to his left hamstring strain. Jimenez began his rehab assignment with the rookie-level Arizona Complex League White Sox on June 13, and across six outings he's gone 8-for-18 with one double, one home run and five RBI. Jimenez was one a five-game hitting streak and slashed .286/.359/.457 over his last 10 major-league games before the injury. Rotowire.com Today, 11:33 am

    • Kyle Tucker (shin) hasn’t resumed baseball activity
      MLB.com’s Brian McTaggart reports Kyle Tucker (shin) has yet to resume baseball activities.

      Advice: Tucker is still walking with a limp and has yet to resume any baseball activities at this juncture. There was some optimism earlier this week that he was getting close, but clearly is still going to need some extra time to recover. There isn’t a definitive timeline for his return to Houston’s lineup at this point. He’s been out since early June recovering from a shin contusion. It’s fair to wonder if he’s dealing with something more serious like a hairline fracture at this point. There should be some clarity on his status at some point in the near future.

    • Lands on IL
      The Diamondbacks placed Moreno on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a sprained left thumb, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

      Advice: Moreno's X-rays came back negative after he exited Friday's game due to his injured thumb, but the damage seems to still be severe enough to warrant keeping him out for the next 10 days. While he recovers, Tucker Barnhart will take over as Arizona's primary catcher and Jose Herrera will come up from Triple-A Reno to provide additional depth at catcher. Rotowire.com Today, 10:23 am
