  • Brewers recall Janson Junk on Saturday
    Brewers recalled RHP Janson Junk from Triple-A Nashville.

    Advice: Junk provides Milwaukee’s bullpen with some extra long relief depth for the remainder of their weekend series against the White Sox. The 28-year-old righty has made three relief appearances this season for the Brewers. Rotoworld Today, 12:17 pm
     
  • Brewers option Tobias Myers to Triple-A
    Brewers optioned RHP Tobias Myers to Triple-A Nashville.

    Advice: Myers retreats to the minors after allowing five runs over 5 1/3 frames on Friday in a no-decision against the struggling White Sox. The 25-year-old righty has intriguing stuff, but it hasn’t translated to the majors yet as he holds a lackluster 5.40 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 27/10 K/BB ratio across 26 2/3 innings (seven appearances, six starts). He remains a work in progress and figures to be up-and-down for Milwaukee over the next few months. Rotoworld Today, 12:16 pm
     
  • Out again Saturday
    Schanuel (thumb) is absent from the Angels' lineup Saturday versus the Mariners, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Schanuel was a late scratch from the lineup ahead of Friday's 5-4 loss and he'll once again take a seat Saturday. Willie Calhoun will slot in a first base for a second straight game, batting fourth against Seattle. Rotowire.com Today, 12:13 pm
     
  • Sent to Triple-A
    The Brewers optioned Myers to Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.

    Advice: Myers was knocked around during his start against the White Sox on Friday, allowing five earned runs in just 4.1 frames, and he will now head back to Nashville in order to right the ship. The 25-year-old owns a 5.40 ERA and 1.46 WHIP through 26.2 innings across seven big-league appearances this season, though he still may be relied upon later in the year if the Brewers run into additional problems with their pitching depth. Janson Junk was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Today, 12:13 pm
     
  • Remains on bench
    Paris will sit Saturday versus Seattle, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Paris will remain on the bench for a second game in a row Saturday. Luis Rengifo will slide over to second base while Luis Guillorme draws another start at third base and bats ninth against the Mariners. Rotowire.com Today, 12:10 pm

  • Takes seat Saturday
    Peralta isn't in the Padres' lineup for Saturday's game against the Royals.

    Advice: Although the Padres are set to face right-hander Alec Marsh on Saturday, Peralta will sit on the bench while Donovan Solano serves as San Diego's designated hitter and bats sixth. Peralta has gone just 3-for-15 with seven strikeouts since joining the Friars on May 22. Rotowire.com Today, 12:08 pm
     
  • Resting Saturday
    Campusano isn't in the Padres' lineup Saturday versus Kansas City.

    Advice: Campusano is still ice-cold at the plate and is now 0-for-19 across his last seven games. He'll give way to Kyle Higashioka on Saturday and may continue to lose playing time if his offensive struggles continue. Rotowire.com Today, 12:04 pm
     
  • Remains sidelined Saturday
    Donovan (neck) isn't in the Cardinals' lineup Saturday against Philadelphia.

    Advice: Neck stiffness caused Donovan to be scratched from St. Louis' lineup before Friday's contest, and the issue seems to still be bothering him Saturday. Alec Burleson, Mike Siani and Dylan Carlson will start across the outfield while Donovan sits, allowing Jose Fermin to serve as the designated hitter. Rotowire.com Today, 11:58 am

  • Getting breather versus lefty
    Frelick isn't in the Brewers' lineup Saturday against the White Sox.

    Advice: With lefty Garrett Crochet set to start on the bump for Chicago, the lefty-hitting Frelick will sit on the bench to begin Saturday's game. Jackson Chourio will fill the opening in right field and bat eighth. Rotowire.com Today, 11:54 am
