  • Sitting versus southpaw
    Brown will sit Saturday versus Atlanta.

    Advice: Brown will get a breather as the Athletics square off with left-hander Chris Sale on the mound Saturday. Daz Cameron will draw the start in right field and bat fifth against Atlanta. Rotowire.com Today, 10:15 am

  • Remains on bench
    Davis is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's matchup with Atlanta.

    Advice: Davis will remain on the bench for the fourth consecutive contest Saturday. He appears to have fallen out of favor as the primary option at first base with Oakland. Aledmys Diaz will draw the start first and bat eighth against Atlanta. Rotowire.com Today, 10:13 am

  • Brendan Donovan (neck) out Saturday vs. Phillies
    Brendan Donovan (neck) remains absent from the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Phillies.

    Advice: Donovan remains out after being scratched from Friday’s lineup due to neck stiffness. It’ll be rookie Masyn Winn, who has recorded at least one hit in 18 straight games that he’s started since May 6, taking over atop St. Louis’ lineup in his absence. Rotoworld Today, 9:48 am

    Advice: Vaughn will remain on the bench for a second game in a row Saturday. Gavin Sheets will draw another start at first base and bat fifth against Milwaukee. Rotowire.com Today, 9:25 am
     
  • Mark Canha undergoes additional testing on hip
    Tigers manager A.J. Hinch told reporters after Friday’s loss to the Red Sox that Mark Canha underwent additional testing on his injured left hip.

    Advice: Canha was a late scratch from Friday’s lineup with the hip issue — which apparently has been bothering him for some time now and finally told the Tigers that he couldn’t play through it any longer. We’ll wait and see what the test results yield, but there’s a chance that the 35-year-old outfielder may wind up on the injured list. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:10 pm

  • Seth Brown strikes out four times in loss
    Seth Brown struck out all four times he was up in Friday’s loss to the Braves.

    Advice: It’s probably about time for the A’s to give up on Brown. He was a solid role player in 2021 and ’22, but his slugging fell off last year, and his exit velocity numbers have really slipped while he’s hit .201/.242/.329 this season. Lawrence Butler seems like a better option in his spot. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:25 pm

  • Scratched with sore thumb
    Schanuel was scratched from the Angels' lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Mariners due to left thumb soreness.

    Advice: Schanuel was originally set to start at first base and bat in the leadoff spot Friday, but thumb problems will prevent him from doing so. Willie Calhoun will cover first base in Schanuel's place, moving Matt Thaiss into the DH spot while batting seventh. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:19 pm
     
  • Nolan Schanuel scratched Friday with sore thumb
    Nolan Schanuel was scratched from the Angels’ starting lineup on Friday night due to a sore left thumb.

    Advice: No word yet on the extent of the injury, but since he was in the initial lineup it’s unlikely to be too serious. Willie Calhoun will cover first base in his absence while Matt Thaiss will enter the lineup as the team’s designated hitter against Bryan Woo and the Mariners on Friday night.
