    • Sitting Sunday
      Robert is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against Detroit.

      Advice: White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Sunday that it's a scheduled day off for Robert as the 26-year-old outfielder eases his way back from his IL stint due to a hip flexor strain, per Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times. Since returning from the injured list June 4, Robert is slashing .180/.275/.459 with five home runs and seven RBI over 61 at-bats. Tommy Pham will start in center field while Andrew Benintendi and Gavin Sheets man the corners against Tigers right-hander Reese Olson. Rotowire.com Sunday, 9:37 am
       
    • Jazz Chisholm Jr. returns at DH on Sunday vs. M’s
      Jazz Chisholm Jr. (biceps) is in the lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Mariners.

      Advice: It’s a rare bit of positive injury news for Miami as Chisholm is back at designated hitter for Sunday’s series finale following an early exit from Saturday’s game due to right biceps tightness. It doesn’t sound like a serious concern at the moment and it’s certainly a welcome development for fantasy managers. Rotoworld Sunday, 9:08 am
       
    • Luis Robert Jr. not in Sunday’s lineup vs. Tigers
      Luis Robert Jr. is not in the lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the division-rival Tigers.

      Advice: It appears to be a routine off day for Robert, who has made nine consecutive starts for Chicago dating back to June 13. The 26-year-old is batting .180 (11-for-61) with five homers and two steals in 17 games since returning earlier this month from a lengthy stint on the injured list. Rotoworld Sunday, 9:05 am
       
    • Idle versus lefty
      Carroll is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Phillies, Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona reports.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Carroll will begin Sunday's game in the dugout with Philadelphia sending southpaw Cristopher Sanchez to the mound. Carroll is slashing .257/.373/.386 with 18 runs and five RBI over 70 at-bats in June. Jake McCarthy will start Sunday's game in center field and bat sixth. Rotowire.com Sunday, 6:56 am
       
    • Instrumental in win
      Duran went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Reds.

      Advice: Duran made two big plays in the final innings to spur Boston to a win. In the eighth, he tagged up on a shallow foul out and beat Stuart Fairchild's throw to the plate for the go-ahead run. An inning later, Duran victimized Fairchild again, robbing him of a home run by reaching over the fence to record the second out. The scorching hot Duran is batting .385 (20-for-52) over a 12-game hit streak. Rotowire.com Sunday, 5:56 am
       
    • Jazz Chisholm Jr. leaves game with tight biceps
      Jazz Chisholm Jr. was removed from Saturday’s game against the Mariners due to tightness in his right biceps.

      Advice: The 26-year-old outfielder had been 1-for-2 with a single and a strikeout when Vidal Brujan surprisingly hit for him in the sixth inning. The severity of the injury is not yet known, so be sure to check his status on Sunday. It may be wise for fantasy managers to have a contingency plan in place for next week in the event that Chisholm requires a trip to the injured list. Rotoworld Saturday, 5:12 pm
       
    • Duran has two hits, robs home run in win Saturday
      Jarren Duran went 2-for-4 with a run scored against the Reds on Saturday.

      Advice: Duran won this game for Boston. He singled in the eighth inning and came around to score the go-ahead run. Then in a one-run game in the ninth inning, Duran robbed what would’ve been a home run off the bat of Stuart Fairchild. Duran is hitting .283 with an .826 OPS on the season.

    • Jazz Chisholm Jr. in Saturday’s lineup vs. M’s
      Jazz Chisholm Jr. (hamstring) is in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Mariners.

      Advice: Chisholm is back in center field for the second straight contest after being scratched earlier this week due to right hamstring tightness. It doesn’t look like it’s going to be an issue going forward, but fantasy managers should continue to keep a close eye on his status in the coming days. Rotoworld Saturday, 9:41 am
       
    • Goes yard twice in Pittsburgh
      Lowe went 3-for-5 with two home runs and four RBI in Friday's 10-3 win over the Pirates.

      Advice: The 26-year-old outfielder touched up Luis Ortiz for both his long balls, hooking a third-inning slider out to right field for a solo shot before lofting a fastball to left-center in the sixth for a three-run blast. Lowe has five homers on the season in 27 games, with three of them coming in the last four contests. If he can stay healthy, he seems poised for a big surge heading into the All-Star break.
