  • Not starting Saturday
    Burger isn't in the Marlins' lineup for Saturday's game against Seattle.

    Advice: Burger will get a day to clear his head Saturday after going just 1-for-21 at the plate over his last five games. Emmanuel Rivera will take over at the hot corner and bat eighth in Burger's place. Rotowire.com Today, 11:07 am

  • Resting Saturday
    Renfroe is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Rangers.

    Advice: Renfroe will take a rest Saturday after returning from the injured list Friday, going 0-for-3 with one walk and two strikeouts. The lefty-hitting Adam Frazier will start in right field Saturday and bat in the leadoff spot against Rangers right-hander Jon Gray. Rotowire.com Today, 11:02 am
     
  • Day off Saturday
    Joe isn't in the Pirates' lineup for Saturday's game versus Tampa Bay.

    Advice: Joe has gone 0-for-13 with four strikeouts in his last four games, and he'll now get a day to regroup Saturday. His absence will open up a spot in right field for Edward Olivares to start while batting seventh. Rotowire.com Today, 10:56 am

  • Optioned to Triple-A
    The Red Sox optioned Dalbec to Triple-A Worcester on Saturday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    Advice: The move corresponds with Wilyer Abreu (ankle) being reinstated from the injured list. Dalbec has struggled from the plate since being recalled by the Red Sox on June 2, going 4-for-30 with four RBI and a 44.1 percent strikeout rate. He'll look to get his swing right in Triple-A, where he is slashing .245/.330/.529 with eight home runs and 21 RBI over 115 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 10:10 am

  • Starting assignment Sunday
    Wade (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Wade has been on the injured list since the end of May due to a Grade 2 left hamstring strain. San Francisco has not yet said how long Wade will remain in the minors, but considering he has been sidelined for nearly a month, it's likely he'll need to play a handful of games with the River Cats before rejoining the big-league club.

  • Red Sox option Bobby Dalbec to Triple-A
    Red Sox optioned INF/OF Bobby Dalbec to Triple-A Worcester.

    Advice: Dalbec heads back to the minors with Wilyer Abreu returning from the injured list ahead of Saturday’s game against the Reds. The 28-year-old has added some defensive versatility to his game, but his slashing .133/.217/.193 with one homer and three steals across 93 plate appearances this season in the majors. It’s not what you want. Rotoworld Today, 10:04 am

  • Provides only offense Friday
    Guerrero went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's loss to the Guardians.

    Advice: The first baseman took Carlos Carrasco deep in the fourth inning, but it was all the offense the Blue Jays could muster in a 7-1 loss. Guerrero hadn't gone yard since June 6, and while he continues to scald the ball -- he's in the 99th percentile in average exit velocity and hard-hit rate -- a 5.9 degree average launch angle is costing him power. On the season, he's batting .281 with a career-low .406 SLG, eight homers and 31 RBI in 75 games. Rotowire.com Today, 8:56 am
     
  • Drives in three Friday
    Soderstrom went 2-for-2 with an RBI single, a two-run double, a walk and a run in a win over the Twins on Friday.

    Advice: Soderstrom's stellar night at the plate began with a first-inning RBI single that plated Abraham Toro (hamstring) and was followed up by his timely two-bagger in the fifth that drove home Miguel Andujar and Brent Rooker. The rookie has been on a tear at the plate since early June, producing a .314/.397/.588 slash line with six extra-base hits, 11 RBI and an acceptable 20.7 percent strikeout rate across the 58 plate appearances covering his last 15 games.

  • Sitting Saturday
    Vientos isn't in the Mets' lineup Saturday against the Cubs.

    Advice: Vientos will get a day to regroup Saturday after going 0-for-9 with three strikeouts over his last two games. Jose Iglesias will get the nod at the hot corner instead while batting ninth. Rotowire.com Today, 8:25 am
