  • Brewers call up C Eric Haase from Triple-A
    Brewers selected the contract of C Eric Haase from Triple-A Nashville.

    Advice: Haase will be making his season debut after hitting .279/.367/.503 in 41 games in Triple-A. The veteran was originally signed by the Brewers to serve as William Contreras’s backup, but he lost the gig when Gary Sánchez came on board this spring. He’ll place the ailing Sánchez for at least the next eight days. Rotoworld 11 minutes ago

  • Contract selected
    The Brewers selected Haase's contract from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Haase will be the Brewers' backup catcher behind William Contreras while Gary Sanchez (calf) is out and could see the occasional start at designated hitter versus left-handed pitching. The 31-year-old has an .870 OPS with nine homers at Nashville this season. Rotowire.com 13 minutes ago

  • Remains on bench Wednesday
    Bouchard (back) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

    Advice: Bouchard will miss out on a third straight start while he contends with back tightness, though even if healthy, he might not have been in store for regular playing time. The 28-year-old has provided a .625 OPS over 102 plate appearances in the majors this season. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago
     
  • Gains regular spot in lineup vs. RHPs
    Cave will start in right field and bat eighth in Wednesday's game against the Astros.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Cave looks to have moved into a strong-side platoon role in the Colorado outfield. He'll pick up a start in the outfield Wednesday for the Rockies' eighth straight matchup with a right-handed starting pitcher. The 31-year-old owns a .250/.303/.326 slash line with no home runs and two stolen bases over 145 plate appearances on the season, so he'll likely struggle to deliver much meaningful fantasy value even if he continues to see steady playing time versus righties.

  • Taking seat Wednesday
    Goodman is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

    Advice: Goodman is on the bench Wednesday, but he seems to have settling into a near-everyday role of late while moving between designated hitter and catcher. He had started in nine of the Rockies' previous 10 games, going 10-for-37 with five home runs, one double, 10 RBI and seven runs over that stretch. Rotowire.com 25 minutes ago

  • Jake Fraley scratched with leg contusion
    Jake Fraley was scratched from Wednesday’s lineup because of a lower leg contusion.

    Advice: We assume that makes him day-to-day. Levi Jordan has replaced him in the Reds outfield for the game against the Pirates. Rotoworld 41 minutes ago

  • Rangers select Derek Hill’s contract from Triple-A
    Rangers selected the contract of OF Derek Hill from Triple-A Round Rock.

    Advice: Hill’s first stint with the Rangers ended prematurely earlier this month because the team wanted to add an infielder due to Corey Seager being banged up. He’ll get another look as a reserve outfielder now. The former first-round pick was hitting .350/.415/.631 with eight homers and seven steals in 42 games for Round Rock. He was 2-for-9 in 2 1/2 weeks with the Rangers before being dropped June 7. Rotoworld 52 minutes ago
     
  • Rangers demote Ezequiel Duran to Triple-A
    Rangers optioned INF/OF Ezequiel Duran to Triple-A Round Rock.

    Advice: We thought this might happen when Josh Jung came off the IL, but the Rangers declined to wait that long. Duran was hitting .256/.294/.324 in 187 plate appearances this season, and with Josh Smith thriving, he wasn’t going to play much following Jung’s return. A stint in Triple-A shouldn’t hurt.

  • Joining roster, in lineup Wednesday
    The Rangers selected Hill's contract from Triple-A Round Rock on Wednesday.

    Advice: Hill was outrighted off the 40-man roster following a brief stint in the majors earlier this season, but he's back with the big club and will start in center field and bat eighth Wednesday in Milwaukee. The 28-year-old sports a career .591 OPS over parts of five major-league seasons. Rotowire.com Today, 9:16 am
