  • Sits versus southpaw
    Carpenter is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.

    Advice: Carpenter is in the midst of a 3-for-25 slump and will sit Sunday as lefty Nestor Cortes takes the mound for New York. Wenceel Perez will shift to right field while Parker Meadows starts in center. Rotowire.com 2 minutes ago
     
  • Remains out with illness
    Rengifo (illness) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

    Advice: He'll be withheld from the starting nine for the second day in a row while recovering from an illness. Rengifo has been playing on a near-everyday basis of late while toggling between second base and third base, but he'll give way to Brandon Drury at the keystone and Cole Tucker at the hot corner for Sunday's series finale.

  • Retreating to bench
    Adrianza is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

    Advice: Adrianza had started each of the past three games at third base while going 1-for-11 with a solo home run. Even with Miguel Sano (knee) on the injured list and with Luis Rengifo (illness) out of the lineup for the second game in a row, Adrianza will cede the hot corner to Cole Tucker in the series finale.

  • Sitting against southpaw
    Keith is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Keith will retreat to the bench while southpaw Nestor Cortes takes the hill for the Yankees. Andy Ibanez will step in at second base in place of Keith, who has recorded an RBI in three straight games but still has just eight on the season while hitting .155 across his first 107 big-league plate appearances.

  • Back in lineup Sunday
    Baez will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Yankees.

    Advice: Per Chris McCosky of The Detroit News, Baez has been dealing with lingering low-back soreness, which may explain why the Tigers held him out of the lineup for Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Yankees. The sore back doesn't look as though it'll be anything that forces Baez to the 10-day injured list, but he could start receiving more frequent days off, especially if he continues to underwhelm at the plate. After turning in a .671 OPS and .592 OPS in the 2022 and 2023 campaigns, respectively, Baez has declined further so far in his third season in Detroit. He carries a .183/.228/.258 slash line into Sunday's contest. Rotowire.com 12 minutes ago
     
  • Anthony Rizzo sitting Sunday vs. Tigers
    Anthony Rizzo is not in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Tigers.

    Advice: Rizzo will get a day off a day after hitting a three-run homer. The 34-year-old will get a break with Oswaldo Cabrera getting a start across the diamond at first base and Jon Berti handling third. Rotoworld 13 minutes ago
     
  • Four hits in team debut
    Arraez went 4-for-6 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Saturday's win over the Diamondbacks.

    Advice: Arraez wasted no time in establishing a good first impression with his new team, smacking a leadoff double on the second pitch he saw from Brandon Pfaadt in the opening frame before coming around to score San Diego's first run of the contest. The newly-acquired infielder would add another three singles on the night, with the latter one leading to an eight-run seventh inning for the Padres. It marked Arraez's second game this season with four hits and he's now registered at least one knock in seven straight. Rotowire.com 13 minutes ago
     
  • Receiving Sunday off
    Rizzo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

    Advice: Rizzo started the Yankees' first 35 games of the season but will receive his first day off Sunday, giving him two straight days of rest since a team day off follows Monday. Oswaldo Cabrera is stepping in at first bas while Jon Berti starts at the hot corner. Rotowire.com 16 minutes ago
     
  • On bench in second straight
    Wells is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

    Advice: After sitting against Tigers right-hander Casey Mize in Saturday's 5-3 win, the lefty-hitting Wells will remain on the bench Sunday with southpaw Tarik Skubal on the hill for Detroit. The Yankees may be opting for more of a timeshare at catcher between Wells and the right-handed-hitting Jose Trevino rather than a true platoon, given that Trevino has been the better performer of the two this season. Trevino heads into Sunday's game with a .719 OPS, more than 100 points higher than Wells' mark (.592). Rotowire.com 22 minutes ago
