  • Out again versus lefty
    Stott is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Marlins.

    Advice: Stott was out of the lineup Tuesday against a lefty and will also begin this one on the bench as the Marlins send southpaw Trevor Rogers to the hill. He did pinch hit in Tuesday's contest, so perhaps another mid-game appearance is possible. Whit Merrifield is handling second base for the Phillies on Thursday. Rotowire.com 2 minutes ago
  • Jorge Mateo starts third straight game at 2B
    Jorge Mateo is starting at second base and hitting ninth for the Orioles on Thursday against the Rangers.

    Advice: Mateo has now started three straight games and four of the last five. However, he’s hitting just .240/.282/.453 with five home runs, 12 steals, and a 23 percent strikeout rate. However, he’s hitting just .225 in June and Coby Mayo is on fire in Triple-A, so Mateo might need to go on a hot streak to keep getting starting opportunities. Rotoworld 10 minutes ago

  • Lamonte Wade Jr. coming off IL on Thursday
    According to MLB.com’s Maria I. Guardado, the Giants will activate 1B/OF Lamonte Wade Jr. (hamstring) from the 10-day IL on Friday.

    Advice: The veteran was placed on the IL at the end of May and will have missed about four weeks. Wade has a tremendous on-base percentage and will return to an everyday role against right-handed pitching. That will send David Villar back to the bench. Rotoworld 22 minutes ago

  • Returning Thursday
    Arcia (head) will start at shortstop Thursday, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Advice: Arcia has been held out of action since being pulled from Monday's game due to dizziness. Now that the issue has subsided, he'll return to his role as Atlanta's shortstop and look to get back on track after going just 1-for-19 with seven strikeouts across his last six contests.
