    • Zack Gelof picks up three hits, steal in victory
      Zack Gelof stole a base and went 3-for-4 in a win over the Diamondbacks on Friday.

      Advice: Gelof also scored two runs and drew a walk for a big fantasy night for the second-year 24-year-old. One of the hits was a triple — his second of the season — and his steal gives him nine of the season. it’s nice to see some success for Gelof as a reminder that there’s some long-term potential in his bat, as a .205/.259/.352 slash doesn’t exactly scream fantasy upside.

    • Brandon Drury (illness) remains out of Angels lineup
      Brandon Drury (illness) remains out of the Angels’ starting lineup for Friday night’s showdown against the Tigers.

      Advice: It’s the eighth consecutive game that Drury has missed due to illness — though he’s said to be making progress and getting closer to a return. Luis Guillorme will start in his place at second base on Friday night and will bat ninth against Kenta Maeda and the Tigers. Rotoworld Friday, 3:20 pm

    • Absent from lineup
      Drury (illness) is out of the lineup for Friday's game against Detroit, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Drury hasn't played since June 18 due to an upper-respiratory illness and will be on the bench again Friday. Luis Guillorme will play second base and bat ninth. Drury is considered day-to-day but doesn't have a clear timeline for his return. Rotowire.com Friday, 3:08 pm

    • Not in lineup Friday
      Ortiz (neck) is not in the starting lineup for Friday's series opener against the Cubs.

      Advice: Ortiz has been dealing with a neck injury since last week's series against the Angels, and he was removed in the sixth inning of Wednesday's game against the Rangers after going 0-for-2. Despite having a day off Thursday, Ortiz will be in the dugout for at least the series opener against Chicago. Andruw Monasterio will start at third base Friday and bat ninth against Cubs right-hander Jameson Taillon. Rotowire.com Friday, 2:37 pm
       
    • Tyler Black riding the pine again on Friday night
      Tyler Black is once again riding the pine for Friday night’s matchup against the Cubs in Milwaukee.

      Advice: It’s the fourth consecutive game that the 23-year-old has found himself on the Brewers’ bench for, and with a southpaw on tap for Saturday, you can bet that his streak will extend to five straight games. Unfortunately, it’s looking like the Brewers aren’t going to give him a shot at everyday at-bats. Andruw Monasterio will draw a start at third base and will bat ninth for the Brewers on Friday night against Jameson Taillon and the Cubs. Rotoworld Friday, 2:30 pm

    • Jose Iglesias remains on bench Friday
      Jose Iglesias is out of the Mets lineup in favor of Jeff McNeil for a fifth straight game Friday.

      Advice: McNeil had a sac fly in five plate appearances during last night’s 12-2 rout, buying him at least another week of starts. Iglesias is hitting .400/.447/.457 in 38 plate appearances, the last of which came six days ago. He probably will get a start Saturday with the Mets due to face a lefty.

    • Exits starting nine
      Schneider is absent from the lineup for Friday's game against the Yankees.

      Advice: Spencer Horwitz will handle second base and Addison Barger will be in left field for the Blue Jays. Schneider is slashing just .171/.229/.316 in June. Rotowire.com Friday, 12:14 pm

    • Brandon Drury out again Thursday due to illness
      Brandon Drury (illness) remains out of the lineup for Thursday’s game against the Tigers.

      Advice: It’s honestly a total mystery why Drury hasn’t been placed on the injured list yet since he’s set to miss his seventh consecutive contest since last Wednesday due to an ongoing battle with a respiratory virus. At this point it’s unclear when he’ll be ready to return. Rotoworld Thursday, 2:55 pm

    • Not starting Thursday
      Drury (illness) isn't in the Angels' lineup for Thursday's game against the Tigers, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Drury will be missing his seventh consecutive game as he continues to fight off an upper-respiratory virus. There hasn't been any sort of indication from the Angels that they will place him on the injured list, so the 31-year-old should still be considered day-to-day. Luis Rengifo will start at second base Thursday with Miguel Sano at third. Rotowire.com Thursday, 2:54 pm
