  • Justin Lawrence activated off paternity list
    Rockies activated RHP Justin Lawrence off the paternity list.

    Advice: Lawrence was away from the team for three days. He’ll likely return to the closing role with Angel Chivilli heading back to Double-A Hartford with Lawrence back. Rotoworld 21 minutes ago
     
  • Retreating to bench Monday
    Miranda is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners.

    Advice: Miranda should be an indirect beneficiary from a playing-time standpoint while Byron Buxton (knee) is on the 10-day injured list, as Miranda had started at third base in each of the previous three games while Willi Castro moved to the outfield to help cover for Buxton's absence. However, Castro will draw the start at the hot corner Monday, opening up center field for Manuel Margot. Rotowire.com 22 minutes ago
     
  • Taking seat Monday
    Machado is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.

    Advice: It's a rare day off for Machado, who had started nine straight after returning from paternity leave. Donovan Solano will handle third base Monday in his first start with the Padres. Rotowire.com 24 minutes ago
     
  • Cubs activate Steele (hamstring) for start Monday
    Cubs activated Justin Steele off the 15-day injured list.

    Advice: Steele is off the IL and will be the starter for the Cubs on Monday against the Royals. The left-hander made one rehab start while recovering from his hamstring trouble, but he should be stretched out enough to provide fantasy value in the coming weeks. Rotoworld 25 minutes ago

  • Won't start Monday
    Jeffers is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners.

    Advice: Jeffers had started each of Minnesota's last three games -- two at catcher and one at designated hitter -- so his absence from the lineup Monday is likely just a rest day. Christian Vazquez will fill in behind the dish and will bat eighth. Rotowire.com 25 minutes ago
     
  • Brice Turang out of lineup Monday vs. Royals
    Brice Turang is out of the starting lineup against the Royals on Monday.

    Advice: Turang will get a rare day off with Joey Ortiz getting a start at second base while he rests. In 2024, Turang has given the Brewers and fantasy teams 14 stolen bases, which has been a pleasant surprise. Rotoworld 29 minutes ago
     
  • Getting Monday off
    Turang is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.

    Advice: Turang -- who is tied for second in the majors with 14 stolen bases -- will hit the bench for just the third time all season in what looks to be a maintenance day. Joey Ortiz will fill in for Turang at the keystone and will bat second. Rotowire.com 31 minutes ago
     
  • Gary Sanchez getting first start since Tuesday
    Gary Sanchez is hitting sixth and catching Monday against the Royals.

    Advice: Sanchez, 31, will make his first start since he was removed from Tuesday’s game with hamstring tightness. The veteran backstop will give William Contreras a break from catching with Contreras leading off as the designated hitter. Rotoworld 31 minutes ago
     
  • Checks in behind plate Monday
    Sanchez (hamstring) will start at catcher and bat sixth in Monday's game against the Royals.

    Advice: Sanchez will make a start for the first time since exiting last Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Rays with right hamstring tightness, but he had been available off the bench for the last few days and served as a late-inning defensive replacement at first base in Friday's 3-1 win over the Cubs. He'll be back behind the dish Monday while No. 1 catcher William Contreras gets a day off from catching and serves as the Brewers' designated hitter. Rotowire.com 38 minutes ago
