  • O’Hearn blasts ninth home run Saturday
    Ryan O’Hearn went 2-for-4 with two runs scored and a solo home run against the Rays on Saturday.

    Advice: O’Hearn’s home run was his ninth of the year. He’s been a decent source of power in deeper formats. O’Hearn hits in the middle of one of the best lineups in the league against right-handed pitching. He’s hitting .285 with nine home runs and 21 RBI this year. Rotoworld 9 minutes ago

  • Rowdy Tellez homers, drives in three vs. Twins
    Rowdy Tellez went 2-for-4 with a solo homer and three RBI to lead the Pirates to a 4-0 win over the Twins on Saturday.

    Advice: Tellez broke a scoreless game in the seventh inning with a solo blast off Simeon Woods-Richardson to give the Pirates the lead. He then drove in two runs with a base hit in the eighth, bringing three of the Pirates’ four runs in to score. The home run was just the second home run of the season for the 29-year-old first baseman. He’s slashed a disappointing .208/.268/.285 with 15 RBI across 157 plate appearances.

  • Potentially significant injury
    Manager Scott Servais said post-game that he was "concerned" about the heel injury that held France out of Saturday's 8-4 loss to the Royals, Shannon Drayer of Seattle Sports 710 AM reports.

    Advice: France was scratched from Saturday's lineup with what was initially deemed a foot injury. However, Servais shared that France is actually dealing with a heel injury that stems from the first baseman being hit by a pitch Friday. France will continue to be evaluated and a status update is expected to be delivered sometime Sunday. Rotowire.com 32 minutes ago

  • Slated for rehab stint next week
    Drury (hamstring) has responded well to recent baseball activities and is likely to head out on a rehab assignment during the week of June 10, per MLB.com.

    Advice: Drury hasn't played since injuring his left hamstring May 8, but he's recently progressed to running and participating in full baseball activities, including taking groundballs and hitting on the field. The veteran infielder hasn't had any setbacks while taking part in that work and thus appears just about ready to head out on a rehab stint. It's not clear how many minor-league games Drury will play in, but he could be back with the Angels by the end of next week. Rotowire.com Today, 12:20 pm

  • Sitting Saturday
    Bauers isn't in the Brewers' lineup Saturday versus Detroit.

    Advice: Bauers will take a seat after going 0-for-4 with a walk and a run scored during Milwaukee's win in Friday's series opener. Rhys Hoskins will start at first and Christian Yelich will serve as the DH, allowing Jackson Chourio to start in left field. Rotowire.com Today, 12:08 pm
