Wade (hamstring) is playing first base and batting second Friday against the Dodgers, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Advice: Wade will make his return from a Grade 2 hamstring strain he sustained in late May on Friday. The first baseman played three rehab games and went 1-for-7 with three runs scored, four walks and two strikeouts. Rotowire.comToday, 3:48 pm
Jeimer Candelario (knee) expected to return Sunday
Reds’ manager David Bell told reporters on Friday that Jeimer Candelario (knee) is expected to return to the starting lineup on Sunday.
Advice: Candelario has missed each of the team’s last three games due to a knee issue and he’ll sit on Saturday as well. The team doesn’t want him to miss a full 10 days though and they’re very hopeful that he’ll be able to return to action on Sunday. Fantasy mangers may still want to sit him through the weekend though to be on the safe side if alternative options are available. RotoworldToday, 3:24 pm
Brandon Drury (illness) remains out of Angels lineup
Brandon Drury (illness) remains out of the Angels’ starting lineup for Friday night’s showdown against the Tigers.
Advice: It’s the eighth consecutive game that Drury has missed due to illness — though he’s said to be making progress and getting closer to a return. Luis Guillorme will start in his place at second base on Friday night and will bat ninth against Kenta Maeda and the Tigers. RotoworldToday, 3:20 pm
Nevin is not in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against the Diamondbacks.
Advice: Nevin will begin Friday's contest in the dugout after going 1-for-7 with three walks, one home run and two RBI over the recent three-game series against the Angels. Armando Alvarez will start at third base and bat seventh against Diamondbacks right-hander Slade Cecconi. Rotowire.comToday, 3:08 pm
Drury (illness) is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Detroit, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Advice: Drury hasn't played since June 18 due to an upper-respiratory illness and will be on the bench again Friday. Luis Guillorme will play second and bat ninth. Drury is considered day-to-day but a timeline for his return has yet to be offered. Rotowire.comToday, 3:08 pm
Candelario (hamstring) is on track to play Sunday against the Cardinals, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.
Advice: Candelario hasn't played since Tuesday as he tends to hamstring tendinitis. However, he's set to make his return for the series finale Sunday and will avoid a stint on the IL. In his stead, Noelvi Marte should continue to start at third base while Spencer Steer handles first base work. Rotowire.comToday, 2:50 pm
Bauers is not in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against the Cubs.
Advice: Despite Chicago sending right-hander Jameson Taillon to the mound Friday, the lefty-hitting Bauers will begin the game in the dugout. For the month of June, Bauers is slashing .263/.378/.447 with two home runs and eight RBI over 38 at-bats. Rhys Hoskins will start at first base Friday while Christian Yelich serves as the designated hitter. Rotowire.comToday, 2:46 pm
Raley (shoulder) is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Twins.
Advice: Raley was scratched from Wednesday's game with shoulder soreness and, despite Thursday's team off day, he'll remain out of the starting nine for the series opener against Minnesota. Up to this point, all indications are that the injury isn't of concern. Dominic Canzone, Julio Rodriguez and Mitch Haniger fill the outfield Friday. Rotowire.comToday, 2:31 pm
Tyler Black is once again riding the pine for Friday night’s matchup against the Cubs in Milwaukee.
Advice: It’s the fourth consecutive game that the 23-year-old has found himself on the Brewers’ bench for, and with a southpaw on tap for Saturday, you can bet that his streak will extend to five straight games. Unfortunately, it’s looking like the Brewers aren’t going to give him a shot at everyday at-bats. Andruw Monasterio will draw a start at third base and will bat ninth for the Brewers on Friday night against Jameson Taillon and the Cubs. RotoworldToday, 2:30 pm
