    • Eloy JimĂ©nez (hamstring) facing ‘extended absence’
      White Sox manager Pedro Grifol told reporters Thursday that Eloy Jiménez (hamstring) is facing an extended absence.

      Advice: Grifol didn’t divulge a specific timeline, but it certainly sounds like JimĂ©nez is going to wind up missing at least a couple months due to a left hamstring strain. The 27-year-old hasn’t gotten going at the dish this season after a strong spring training performance, posting a lackluster .668 OPS with five homers in 146 plate appearances. He can be safely dropped in all re-draft fantasy formats at this juncture. Rotoworld 46 minutes ago

    • Due for extended absence
      Manager Pedro Grifol didn't have a specific timeline Thursday for Jimenez's (hamstring) return, but he said it would be an extended absence, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

      Advice: The news of the absence being extended comes with the White Sox finding out Jimenez 's hamstring was beat up a decent amount. Grifol guessed that the absence would be a little shorter than they have been without Luis Robert. Jimenez's injury occurred when he tweaked the hamstring while running the bases in Tuesday's game in Toronto. The 27-year-old was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a left hamstring strain. Rotowire.com 49 minutes ago

    • Not starting Thursday
      Turner isn't in Toronto's lineup for Thursday's game against the Tigers.

      Advice: Turner will get a breather Thursday after reaching base three times during Wednesday's win over the White Sox. Daniel Vogelbach will fill in as the Jays' DH and bat fifth. Rotowire.com Today, 1:05 pm

    • Taking seat Thursday
      Heim is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Phillies.

      Advice: The Rangers are wrapping up their series in Philadelphia with a day game after a night game, so Heim will be given a day of rest. Andrew Knizner will pick up the start at catcher. Rotowire.com Today, 7:34 am

    • Homers in win
      Marte went 2-for-5 with a solo homer in Wednesday's win over the Dodgers.

      Advice: Marte singled in his first at-bat to extend his hitting streak to 23 games and later added a solo homer to lead off the eighth, giving the Diamondbacks a 5-0 lead. The long ball was the second baseman's fifth this month, and he's now recorded at least one RBI in three of his last five games, batting .318 over that brief stretch. Rotowire.com Today, 7:26 am

    • Silences Dodgers over five frames
      Nelson (3-3) earned the win Wednesday, shutting out the Dodgers over five innings while allowing five hits and three walks. He struck out five.

      Advice: The right-hander didn't draw the start but relieved Brandon Hughes with just two outs in the first inning before pitching all the way into the sixth. Nelson struck out three of the first five batters he faced and induced 10 whiffs on the night, while also working his way out of multiple jams against a lethal Dodgers lineup. It was a great bounceback effort for Nelson after allowing a season-high eight runs in his previous outing. He's now won three of his last four decisions (spanning six outings).

    • Ketel Marte homers, extends hit streak to 21 games
      Ketel Marte went 2-for-5 with a solo homer in the Diamondbacks’ 6-0 win over the Dodgers on Wednesday.

      Advice: Marte came into this one riding a 20-game hitting streak. He extended it to 21 games right away with a base hit in the first inning. Marte later took Ryan Yarbrough deep for a solo homer in the eighth inning. The 30-year-old second baseman is hitting .291/.339/.523 with 10 homers, 35 runs scored, and 27 RBI across 221 plate appearances. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:03 pm

    • Ryne Nelson shuts down Dodgers over five innings
      Ryne Nelson tossed five shutout innings with five strikeouts in a win over the Dodgers on Wednesday.

      Advice: Brandon Hughes had recorded the first two outs of the game as the opener. Nelson came in for the final out and shut down the Dodgers over five frames, scattering five hits and three walks with five strikeouts to earn the win. The 26-year-old right-hander ends the day with a 6.03 ERA, 1.83 WHIP, and a 28/10 K/BB ratio across 34 1/3 innings. His next outing should come against the Rangers in Texas next week.

    • Simeon Woods Richardson goes 4 2/3 scoreless
      Simeon Woods Richardson was lifted after throwing 4 2/3 scoreless innings Wednesday against the Nationals.

      Advice: One more out would have put Woods Richardson in line for his second big-league victory, but Rocco Baldelli didn’t trust him to retire CJ Abrams for a third time with no one on base in the fifth. Woods Richardson is 1-0 with a 2.57 ERA in six starts for the Twins. He’ll face the Royals at home next time out. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:36 pm
