    • Scratched from lineup
      Abrams was scratched from Wednesday's lineup versus the Diamondbacks, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

      Advice: The Nationals haven't provided an explanation for why Abrams was scratched, but it's worth noting that he collided with Arizona's Corbin Carroll on the latter's stolen-base attempt in Tuesday's 5-0 loss. The team should provide more information on Abrams' condition later Wednesday. Nasim Nunez will pick up a start at shortstop Wednesday. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 12:44 pm
       
    • CJ Abrams scratched from Nationals lineup
      CJ Abrams was scratched from Wednesday’s lineup for the game against the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: No reason was immediately given. Nasim Nuñez is playing shortstop in his place. He went into the ninth spot, so everyone else moved up one place in the lineup. Rotoworld Wednesday, 12:40 pm
       
    • Out of lineup Wednesday
      Westburg (hip) isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees.

      Advice: Westburg was forced from Tuesday's 4-2 loss with a bruised left hip following a collision on the infield with Yankees outfielder Juan Soto. He's considered day-to-day, and it's possible he'll be available off the bench for Wednesday's contest. Ramon Urias will fill in for Westburg at third base. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 12:21 pm
       
    • Considered day-to-day
      Manager Brandon Hyde said that Westburg was diagnosed with a bruised left hip following Tuesday's loss to the Yankees, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

      Advice: Westburg collided with Juan Soto during the first inning of Tuesday's contest and eventually had to leave the game in the second. He appears to have avoided any significant damage, and it's possible he'll return to Baltimore's lineup Wednesday without missing any games. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 7:30 pm
       
    • Jordan Westburg day-to-day with hip soreness
      Jordan Westburg is day-to-day with left hip soreness.

      Advice: Orioles manager Brandon Hyde told reporters following Tuesday’s loss to the Yankees that Westburg is pretty sore, but it doesn’t sound like he suffered a significant injury when he collided at an awkward angle with Juan Soto during the opening frame of the contest, which led to his early exit. The 25-year-old infielder will likely sit out a couple games moving forward, but it doesn’t appear that he’s headed to the injured list. Rotoworld Tuesday, 7:16 pm
       
    • Jordan Westburg leaves game with hip discomfort
      Jordan Westburg was removed from Tuesday’s game against the Yankees with left hip discomfort.

      Advice: Westburg collided awkwardly with Yankees slugger Juan Soto while fielding a first-inning grounder at third base and was lifted from the contest in the ensuing frame. It sounds like his early exit was merely for precautionary reasons, but he’ll presumably undergo some additional testing to rule out anything serious. The 25-year-old holds an .836 OPS with 11 homers and six steals in 275 plate appearances this season. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Tuesday, 5:19 pm
       
    • Exits early with hip injury
      Westburg left Tuesday's contest with the Yankees in the bottom of the second inning with left hip discomfort, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Westburg struck out swinging to open the game in the top of the first inning and he was later removed from the contest in the bottom of the second. Westburg will certainly undergo imaging on his hip to determine the severity of the injury, but in the meantime, Ramon Urias has replaced him at third base against New York.

    • Blasts homer in loss
      Turang went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Monday in a loss to the Angels.

      Advice: Turang plated the final run of the contest with his 419-foot solo shot in the fifth inning. The second-year infielder has gone deep four times through 68 games this season after hitting six homers in 137 contests last year. Turang's skill set is more centered on speed than power, so anything fantasy managers get in the homer department is a nice bonus. The speedster has made a big impact on the rosters of fantasy managers who had the foresight to pick him up late in fantasy drafts or on the waiver wire, as he's slashing .291/.359/.406 on the season with 25 RBI, 35 runs and 26 stolen bases in 27 attempts.

    • Dodgers expect Betts (hand) to miss 6-8 weeks
      The Dodgers’ current guess is that Mookie Betts will miss 6-8 weeks with a fractured left hand.

      Advice: Sounds about right. The Dodgers will mostly go with Miguel Rojas at shortstop for now; manager Dave Roberts said he’d start three of the four games in Colorado this week. Enrique Hernández figures to get the nod in the other. Rotoworld Monday, 5:23 pm
