    • Orlando Arcia (dizziness) likely to rest Tuesday
      Orlando Arcia will likely get Tuesday off after leaving Monday’s game with dizziness.

      Advice: The Braves believe he was dehydrated. Zack Short will probably start at shortstop Tuesday, but Arcia might be available off the bench. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:52 pm
       
    • Likely sitting Tuesday
      Manager Brian Snitker stated that the team will probably give Arcia (head) Tuesday off, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

      Advice: Arcia received fluids after leaving Monday's game due to dizziness and didn't appear to be feeling well in the clubhouse afterward, per Toscano. "Just probably dehydrated, I guess," said Snitker. "I don't know. I know they gave him fluids, so we'll probably put him down tomorrow and let him regroup and see where he's at." Zack Short would be the obvious choice for a start at shortstop Tuesday in Arcia's place. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:35 pm
       
    • Brian Anderson out with bacterial infection
      Brian Anderson wasn’t with the Braves for Monday’s game because of a lower body bacterial infection.

      Advice: Anderson hasn’t had an at-bat since June 12, but until tonight, we imagine, that was simply because Brian Snitker hates using his bench players. If Anderson needs to go on the IL, the Braves figure to call up either Luke Williams or J.P. Martinez. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:12 pm
       
    • Renfroe hits seventh home run in win Monday
      Hunter Renfroe went 1-for-2 with a walk and a solo home run against the Marlins on Monday.

      Advice: Signs of life? Renfroe’s home run was his seventh of the year. He’s still only hitting .198 on the year with a .652 OPS. With the Royals optioning Nelson Velasquez to the minors, Renfroe has to understand it’s getting to be that time where he might not keep his job if his numbers don’t improve.

    • Donovan stays hot with three-hit game Monday

      Advice: Donovan’s RBI single in the third inning off Braves starter Spencer Schwellenbach gave the Cardinals a 3-0 lead. He now has a hit in eight consecutive games and 17 of his last 18 games. Donovan is 26-for-71 (.366) with four home runs and 14 RBI in his last 18 games. His season average is up to .269 with a .753 OPS and 39 RBI. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:30 pm

    • Exits due to dizziness
      Arcia left Monday's game against the Cardinals after experiencing dizziness.

      Advice: The club notes that Arcia's removal from the matchup was only precautionary, and he's likely headed for further testing. The starting shortstop will be considered day-to-day until more information comes to light. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:27 pm
       
    • Gabriel Arias ejected from game in ninth
      Gabriel Arias was ejected from Monday’s game in the ninth inning for arguing balls and strikes.

      Advice: Arias brought up the strike two pitch with umpire Jeremy Riggs after swinging and missing at strike three and was thrown out, even though he didn’t seem to say much at all. Arias had a double and a run scored in four at-bats on the night. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:07 pm

    • Available to pinch hit Monday
      Drury (illness) went through a workout before Monday's game against the Athletics and will be available off the bench, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

      Advice: Drury has been held out of the lineup since Saturday due to an upper respiratory virus, but he's close to returning to the starting lineup. Michael Stefanic draws the start at second base Monday with Drury available off the bench. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:33 pm
