  • Evan Carter to miss one month with back injury
    Rangers manager Bruce Bochy told reporters Tuesday that Evan Carter will miss at least one month with a stress reaction in his back.

    Advice: Not great. Bochy added that Carter isn’t dealing with a stress fracture, which would’ve required a much lengthier absence, but he’s facing a lengthier absence than originally anticipated when he hit the injured list last week with a back sprain. The 21-year-old top prospect is likely going to be on the shelf until sometime after next month’s All-Star break, even in a best-case scenario. Fantasy managers in re-draft formats can probably move on, especially in shallow mixed leagues. Rotoworld Today, 1:56 pm

  • Absent from Tuesday's lineup
    Carroll is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Giants.

    Advice: One day after being moved down to the No. 8 spot in the Diamondbacks' batting order, Carroll is now out of the lineup altogether. Both games have come versus left-handers. Carroll is hitting a woeful .192/.280/.281 during his massively disappointing 2024 campaign. Jake McCarthy is in center field Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 1:51 pm

  • Corbin Carroll not in lineup Tuesday vs. southpaw
    Corbin Carroll is absent from the lineup for Tuesday’s contest against the Giants.

    Advice: Carroll was dropped to the eighth spot in Arizona’s lineup earlier this week for the first time this season and will take a seat on Tuesday evening for the first time since May 15 with lefty Kyle Harrison toeing the rubber for San Francisco in this one. The 23-year-old has struggled to a calamitous .561 OPS with two homers and nine steals through 58 games. Rotoworld Today, 1:50 pm

  • Masataka Yoshida starting rehab assignment this weekend
    Red Sox manager Alex Cora confirmed Tuesday that Masataka Yoshida (thumb) is expected to start a minor league rehab assignment this weekend.

    Advice: Yoshida has been on the shelf since the start of May due to a left thumb strain, but managed to avoid surgery. The 30-year-old is going to need some time to get back up to speed in the minors before returning to Boston’s lineup mix at designated hitter. Rotoworld Today, 1:36 pm

  • On bench Tuesday
    Frelick is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Philadelphia.

    Advice: Frelick will avoid lefty Cristopher Sanchez on Tuesday, giving way to Jackson Chourio in right field. Frelick is slashing .253/.335/.333 with a pair of homers and seven stolen bases on the year. Rotowire.com Today, 1:22 pm

  • Taking seat Tuesday
    Bauers is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.

    Advice: As per usual, Bauers will ride the pine with the Brewers facing a left-handed pitcher. Rhys Hoskins will play first while Gary Sanchez fills the DH spot. Rotowire.com Today, 1:21 pm

  • Idle Tuesday
    McCormick is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cardinals, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Advice: McCormick has just one hit in his last 16 at-bats and will take a seat for the second time in four games. Yordan Alvarez, Jake Meyers and Mauricio Dubon fill the outfield from left to right. Rotowire.com Today, 1:13 pm

  • Out of lineup Tuesday
    Bouchard isn't part of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Cincinnati.

    Advice: Bouchard will give way to the lefty-hitting Jake Cave in left field Tuesday with RHP Frankie Montas on the mound for the Reds. While Bouchard remains the Rockies' preferred left fielder with Jordan Beck (hand) sidelined, he's still expected to cede work to Cave and Hunter Goodman on occasion.

  • Tyler O’Neill (knee) could be activated Wednesday
    Tyler O’Neill (knee) will start a rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Worcester.

    Advice: If that game goes well, Red Sox manager Alex Cora told reporters that O’Neill could be activated off the injured list prior to Wednesday’s game against Atlanta. There’s also a chance they could wait one more day if they feel the outfielder needs a little more time, but either way, the activation is close. It’d be a significant return for the Red Sox, especially after Wilyer Abreu was placed on the injured list with his ankle sprain. Fantasy managers who roster O’Neill should be ready to bring him back up. Rotoworld Today, 12:17 pm
