  • Back in lineup Sunday
    Stephenson (undisclosed) is starting at catcher and batting fifth Sunday against the Red Sox.

    Advice: Stephenson missed two consecutive starts due to an undisclosed injury, though he was able to appear as a pinch hitter during Saturday's loss. He'll now return to his usual place behind the dish and look to turn things around after recording just two hits in his last 10 games. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:44 am
     
  • Sitting Sunday
    Barnhart is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Philadelphia.

    Advice: Barnhart came in for Gabriel Moreno (thumb) in the bottom of the sixth inning in Friday's contest. Barnhart started at catcher Saturday, going 1-for-3 with an RBI in a 12-1 loss, and he will serve as Arizona's primary catcher with Moreno on the injured list. Jose Herrera will start behind home plate Sunday and bat ninth against Phillies southpaw Cristopher Sanchez. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:01 am
     
  • Moves up depth chart
    Barnhart went 1-for-3 with an RBI in Saturday's 12-1 loss to the Phillies.

    Advice: Barnhart drove in Arizona's lone run and has RBI in three of his last four starts. He stepped in as the starting catcher Saturday after the Diamondbacks placed primary backstop Gabriel Moreno (thumb) on the 10-day injured list. Barnhart moves to the top of the depth chart with Jose Herrera called up from Triple-A Reno to serve as the backup. Rotowire.com Sunday, 4:02 am
     
  • Enters as pinch hitter
    Stephenson (undisclosed) fouled out in his only plate appearance during Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Red Sox.

    Advice: Stephenson has been dealing with an undisclosed injury, but he was called upon to pinch hit for Luke Maile on Saturday. While Stephenson wasn't well enough to start the contest, it's certainly encouraging that he was able to take an at-bat. Rotowire.com Saturday, 6:03 pm
     
  • Homers in win
    Lee went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in a 5-1 win over the Tigers on Saturday.

    Advice: Lee singled in the fourth inning then hit a solo home run off reliever Joey Wentz in the sixth. Lee is hitting just .194 in 62 June at-bats but has recorded multi-hit efforts in two of his past four games. On the season, he is slashing .246/.285/.393 with seven homers and 19 RBI in 183 at-bats.

  • Korey Lee has two hits, homers in win over Tigers
    Korey Lee went 2-for-4 with a solo homer on Saturday, lifting the White Sox to a 5-1 victory over the Tigers.

    Advice: Lee’s sixth inning homer — his seventh big fly of the season — off Tigers reliever Joey Wentz gave Chicago a commanding four-run lead at the time, which they wouldn’t relinquish. It was a relatively quiet afternoon for both sides in this one as Kenta Maeda and Drew Thorpe managed to avoid hard contact pretty well into the middle innings. Rotoworld Saturday, 1:14 pm
