    • Jesse Winker leaves game with apparent leg injury
      Jesse Winker was removed from Saturday’s ballgame against the Marlins in the third inning with an apparent leg injury.

      Advice: The 30-year-old outfielder awkwardly rounded second base before pulling up and retreating during the first inning. He stayed in the game initially, but was ultimately lifted two innings later. Expect the Nationals to provide an update on his status shortly. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:48 pm

    • Absent from lineup versus lefty
      Garcia is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Marlins.

      Advice: It will be southpaw Trevor Rogers on the hill for Miami, so the left-handed-hitting Garcia will begin the contest on the bench. Switch hitter Ildemaro Vargas will occupy second base. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:06 am
       
    • Charlie Blackmon homers, doubles twice in loss
      Charlie Blackmon homered and doubled twice in a 5-2 loss for the Rockies to the Pirates on Friday.

      Advice: It comes in a losing effort, but it’s another big offensive game for Blackmon. The veteran outfielder was hitting .224 on May 26, and that number is now .266 after the three-hit night. The homer came off David Bednar in the ninth, and Colorado trailed 5-2 after the solo blast. Still counts. Blackmon’s a name to keep an eye on based on how he’s played since the end of May, and because he gets to play his home games in a very silly park. Rotoworld Friday, 10:11 pm
       
    • Cracks three extra-base hits
      Blackmon went 3-for-4 with a solo homer, two doubles and two runs scored in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Pirates.

      Advice: The 37-year-old collected two doubles off bulk reliever Luis Ortiz before capping his evening with a 412-foot solo homer against David Bednar in the ninth. Blackmon has shown signs of life in June, hitting .347 (17-for-49) over 12 games this month. He sports a .266/.335/.411 slash line with three homers, five steals, 32 runs scored and 26 RBI on the season. Rotowire.com Friday, 9:01 pm
       
    • Notches save Friday
      Iglesias recorded one out to earn a save over the Rays on Friday.

      Advice: Iglesias came into the game with two runners on base and two outs. He quickly finished the 7-3 win with just three pitches. He's now converted 10 straight saves and is 18 for 20 in save chances this season. Iglesias is sporting a 2.10 ERA with a 17:5 K:BB. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:11 pm
       
    • Jose Altuve doubles twice as Astros defeat Tigers
      Jose Altuve went 2-for-3 with a pair of doubles and a run scored on Friday evening, helping to lead the Astros past the Tigers.

      Advice: Altuve got a rally started with a leadoff double off of Tarik Skubal to begin the sixth inning. He then scored the game’s first run on Alex Bregman’s ensuing RBI triple. Altuve also drew a walk in the ballgame, reaching base safely in three of his four plate appearances. With his two-hit attack, the 34-year-old second baseman is now slashing an outstanding .298/.349/.453 to go along with 10 homers, 26 RBI and nine stolen bases on the season.

    • Raisel Iglesias grabs 18th save
      Raisel Iglesias got one out on three pitches to earn the save on Friday night in the Braves’ win over the Rays.

      Advice: Iglesias was called upon after Dylan Lee got into trouble in the ninth inning and earned the save after throwing just three pitches. It’s been a bizarre season for Iglesias with a 2.10 ERA and just a 16.9 K%. Beware of possible regression coming. Rotoworld Friday, 7:05 pm
       
    • Astros release 1B Jose Abreu
      Astros released 1B Jose Abreu.

      Advice: The 37-year-old from Cuba has accomplished a lot in his career. Abreu is a three-time All-Star, three-time Silver Slugger award winner, won the Rookie of the Year award in 2014 and Most Valuable Player award in 2020. It’s undeniable that his production has fallen off a cliff over the last two seasons, though. Abreu hit .237/.296/.383 in 141 games last year and his average fell to .124 in 113 at-bats this year. He’s in the second year of a three-year $58.3 million deal, but the Astros recognized the sunk cost and will be on the hook for the remainder of the money still owed to Abreu.

    • Cut loose by Astros
      The Astros released Abreu on Friday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Abreu was in the second year of a three-year, $58.5 million contract with Houston but will hit the open market after a dreadful start to the 2024 season. In 120 big-league plate appearances, Abreu posted a .362 OPS with a career-worst 23.3 percent K rate and a 3.4 percent walk rate. Amid his struggles, Abreu spent nearly a month in the minors, beginning at the Astros' FCL affiliate before being brought up to Triple-A Sugar Land, where he went hitless in seven at-bats. Although the 37-year-old didn't show much to indicate improvements are coming, he's still just three years removed from a 30-homer season and is a former AL MVP, making him an intriguing reclamation project as a free agent.
