  • Runs bases Wednesday
    Diaz (calf) ran the bases at Oakland Coliseum on Wednesday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Diaz has been out since late February, first with a groin injury and more recently a calf strain. That he's been cleared to run the bases signals that he shouldn't be too far off from a rehab assignment. Diaz is on the 60-day injured list, so he won't be eligible for activation until late May.

  • Loses out on regular role
    Rivera is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Rivera started in eight consecutive games from April 27 through this past Saturday, but he appears to have lost hold of a regular role in the wake of Jake Burger's recent return from the injured list. He'll be on the bench Wednesday for the fourth consecutive contest. Rotowire.com Today, 10:48 am
     
  • Sitting in third straight
    Wisdom is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Padres.

    Advice: Wisdom is on the bench for the third straight game and looks to be the odd man out of the Cubs' regular lineup following Cody Bellinger's return from the 10-day injured list. The 32-year-old could still play regularly against left-handed pitching. Rotowire.com Today, 10:14 am

  • Athletics place Darell Hernaiz (ankle) on 10-day IL
    Athletics placed SS Darell Hernaiz on the 10-day injured list with a left ankle injury.

    Advice: Hernaiz exited Tuesday’s game against the Rangers when he stepped awkwardly on first base while attempting to beat out an infield hit. The 22-year-old infielder will be sidelined for at least the next week or so. Rotoworld Today, 10:04 am

  • Heading back to bench Wednesday
    Ortiz is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

    Advice: After sitting in four straight games to close out this past weekend, Ortiz picked up starts at second base and third base in the Brewers' first two contests in Kansas City, going 1-for-5 with a solo home run and a walk between those games. The 25-year-old still looks to be the Brewers' preferred option at the hot corner, though he'll give way to Oliver Dunn on Wednesday. Rotowire.com Today, 9:58 am

  • Lands on injured list
    The Athletics placed Hernaiz on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a left ankle injury.

    Advice: Hernaiz suffered the injury during Tuesday's 15-8 loss to the Rangers when he stepped awkwardly on first base while trying to beat out an infield hit. It's not clear at this point how long he might be sidelined. Max Schuemann and Brett Harris could handle shortstop for the Athletics while Hernaiz is out. Rotowire.com Today, 9:45 am

  • Losing grip on regular role
    Biggio is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.

    Advice: Biggio will hit the bench for the fifth time in six games, with three of those absences coming while the Blue Jays have faced left-handed starting pitchers and two coming versus righties. The 29-year-old has maintained a strong-side platoon role at second base for much of the season, but with his OPS sitting at .621 through 29 games, Biggio looks like he could lose work to Davis Schneider moving forward.

  • White Sox select Zach Remillard
    White Sox selected the contract of INF Zach Remillard from Triple-A Charlotte.

    Advice: Remillard was outrighted to the minors last week after he cleared waivers. The 30-year-old doesn’t offer anything for fantasy managers and will continue to be an organizational depth piece for Chicago. Rotoworld Today, 8:19 am
     
  • Swipes first bag of season
    Berti went 2-for-4 with a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Tuesday's 10-3 win over the Astros.

    Advice: Getting the start at third base and batting ninth, Berti nabbed his first steal of the year in the sixth inning. The veteran utility player has started two straight games since returning from a groin injury, both at third base, and with DJ LeMahieu (foot) still lacking a clear timeline for his return, Berti should be in line for consistent work around the Yankees' infield.
