  • Takes seat against southpaw
    Larnach is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: Larnach is one of many Twins players in a platoon, leaving DH duties to Ryan Jeffers, who's batting second. Larnach is amidst an ugly slump, going hitless in his last 17 at-bats. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago

  • On bench again

    Advice: The Twins are facing a lefty for the second straight day, meaning Kepler will give way to the righty-hitting Manuel Margot in right. Kepler is slashing .303/.352/.505 across 108 plate appearances this season. Rotowire.com 22 minutes ago

  • Knocks fourth homer Monday
    Canzone went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and an RBI sacrifice fly in a win over the Yankees on Monday.

    Advice: Canzone was instrumental to the one-run win, igniting the Mariners' comeback from a 3-0 deficit with his 426-foot solo shot to center in the eighth inning. The 26-year-old then delivered a game-tying sacrifice fly in the following frame, giving him his third multi-RBI effort of the season. Canzone's homer also was his first since April 9, with a month-long stay on the injured list due to a shoulder injury largely to blame for the extended drought. Rotowire.com Today, 10:22 am
     
  • Lane Thomas starting rehab assignment in Double-A
    Lane Thomas (knee) is beginning a rehab assignment Tuesday with Double-A Harrisburg.

    Advice: Thomas has been on the injured list since near the end of April due to a sprained left MCL. The outfielder will likely need a week or so of rehab appearances, but then could return to the Washington lineup near the end of May. Thomas got off to a slow start prior to the injury, but was a solid fantasy option in 2023. Rotoworld Today, 5:43 am

    Advice: Fry plated two of Cleveland's three runs with a single in the first inning. He has been swinging a hot bat in May, slashing .353/.488/.647 with three homers, seven RBI and 10 runs along with an 8:8 BB:K over 43 plate appearances.

  • Pops homer in Monday's loss
    McCarthy went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Dodgers.

    Advice: McCarthy has two homers over 16 games in May, but he's collected just five hits over his last eight contests. The outfielder is up to two homers on the season while slashing .283/.357/.414 over 114 plate appearances. He's added three stolen bases, 12 RBI, 15 runs scored, five doubles and a triple. Pavin Smith has been the biggest threat to McCarthy's playing time in right field lately, and Randal Grichuk is also in the mix to poach some at-bats versus southpaws. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:36 pm
