  • 63-51-6 2nd Place
    • Returning Thursday
      Arcia (head) will start at shortstop Thursday, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

      Advice: Arcia has been held out of action since being pulled from Monday's game due to dizziness. Now that the issue has subsided, he'll return to his role as Atlanta's shortstop and look to get back on track after going just 1-for-19 with seven strikeouts across his last six contests.

    • Cubs move Yency Almonte to 60-day IL
      Cubs transferred RHP Yency Almonte (shoulder) to 60-day IL

      Advice: Almonte has a shoulder strain and has not been progressing, which has led the Cubs to seek other opinions on a recovery process. The move doesn’t change his ambiguous timeline but frees up a roster spot that allows the Cubs to add reliever Vinny Nittoli to the active roster. Rotoworld Today, 10:53 am
       
    • Orlando Arcia back in the starting lineup
      Orlando Arcia is back in the starting lineup for the Braves on Thursday against the White Sox.

      Advice: Arcia had missed the last two days while battling an illness, but he’s back in the lineup and hitting ninth on Thursday. The veteran is a consistent presence in the Braves’ lineup, but he’s not playing well this season, hitting .212/.243/.343 with six home runs in 292 plate appearances. He can be left on waiver wires in most leagues. Rotoworld Today, 10:45 am
       
    • Moved to 60-day IL
      The Cubs transferred Almonte (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Thursday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

      Advice: Almonte suffered a setback in his recovery from a right shoulder strain this past week. He remains without an updated return timeline, but his move to the 60-day IL suggests the 30-year-old righty isn't expected back relatively soon. The Cubs signed Vinny Nittoli to an MLB deal Thursday to fill the open spot on the 40-man roster. Rotowire.com Today, 10:12 am
       
    • Fans seven in no-decision
      Wesneski did not factor into the decision in a loss to the Giants on Wednesday, allowing three runs on two hits and one walk over four innings while striking out seven.

      Advice: Wesneski got off to a solid start, striking out four of the first six batters he faced before surrendering back-to-back home runs to Michael Conforto and David Villar in the second. The right-hander would go 1-2-3 through the next two innings before being relieved by Drew Smyly to open the fifth, though the former would still finish with his second-highest strikeout total of the season. It also marked Wesneski's longest outing since May 8 against the Padres when he went six innings. Rotowire.com Today, 6:03 am
       
    • Hayde Wesneski strikes out seven in no-decision
      Hayden Wesneski surrendered three runs with seven strikeouts over four innings in a no-decision against the Giants on Wednesday.

      Advice: All three of the runs Wesneski allowed came on a pair of homers in the second inning. With a runner on, Michael Conforto took him deep for a two-run shot to put the Giants on the board. David Villar followed with a solo shot to go back-to-back. Wesneski retired all six batters in the third and fourth innings before his day was done. He struck out seven. The 26-year-old right-hander owns a 3.60 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, and a 44/16 K/BB ratio across 45 innings. He’ll likely revert to the bullpen for long relief duties. Rotoworld Yesterday, 9:13 pm
       
    • Receiving start Wednesday
      Cubs manager Craig Counsell said Wesneski will start Wednesday's game in San Francisco, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

      Advice: Wesneski has previously made three starts for the Cubs this season, though none have come since May 8. While he'll be available on four days' rest after having made his last relief appearance Friday, Wesneski probably isn't built up enough to handle a traditional starter's workload. The Cubs are likely to move Wesneski back to the bullpen following Wednesday's game, as he was merely added to the rotation this week to give left-hander Shota Imanaga an extra day of rest between starts.

    • Sitting Game 2
      Arcia (head) is out of the lineup for Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Cardinals.

      Advice: The 29-year-old exited Monday's contest due to dizziness and won't start the night game of Wednesday's twin bill. Luke Williams will start at shortstop in place of Arcia for the nightcap. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:14 pm
       
    • Needs another rehab start
      White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Wednesday that Clevinger (elbow) will make another rehab start with Triple-A Charlotte, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.comreports.

      Advice: The veteran right-hander threw 71 pitchers over 4.2 innings during his third rehab outing Sunday, and he'll continue building up his workload at Triple-A. Assuming that next outing goes well, Clevinger could step into Chicago's rotation during the first week of July. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:00 pm
