    • Could miss four-plus weeks
      Acuna (knee) said Sunday that he wouldn't be surprised if he misses a month, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Acuna told reporters he was going on the 10-day injured list and said the discomfort is more like what he felt in 2018 than what he dealt with in 2021 when he tore his ACL. Acuna had a significant limp as he was moving around the clubhouse after Sunday's game, in which he collapsed in the top of the first inning when trying to go back to second base and needed assistance getting down the dugout stairs. He said he did not hear a pop, but Monday's MRI results still loom large. In Acuna's absence, Jarred Kelenic and Adam Duvall could play more against same-handed pitchers. Rotowire.com 13 minutes ago
    • Wilyer Abreu collects three hits in Boston’s win
      Wilyer Abreu went 3-for-4 with a triple Sunday as the Red Sox edged the Brewers 2-1.

      Advice: Abreu benefitted from having a hit lost in the sun, but he also had a 409-foot triple to center that would have been a homer in 21 ballparks and a lineout with a .630 xBA. Abreu is batting .284/.359/.500 in 167 plate appearances, and while he’s probably overachieving somewhat, he’s certainly worth playing in mixed leagues for now. Rotoworld 23 minutes ago

    • Wyatt Langford (hamstring) expected back Tuesday
      Wyatt Langford (hamstring) is expected to return from the injured list on Tuesday.

      Advice: Langford played in his third game on his minor league rehab assignment at Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday and isn’t expected to need any more at-bats before he’s ready to return to the Rangers’ lineup. Before landing on the shelf on May 6, the 22-year-old phenom was hitting .224/.295/.293 with one homer, 11 RBI and one stolen base over his first 31 games at the big league level.

    • Set for increased playing time
      Duvall went 1-for-5 with a solo home run Sunday against the Pirates.

      Advice: Duvall blasted an eighth-inning 1-0 offering by Pirates reliever Aroldis Chapman over the wall in left-center for his fourth home run of the season. Duvall, who earned the start with lefty Martin Perez starting the game on the hill, is set to earn additional playing time in the near future, as Ronald Acuna left the game with a knee injury and is slated for a stint on the IL.

    • Julio Rodríguez goes 3-for-5, homers in victory
      Julio Rodríguez went 3-for-5 with a homer and four RBI as the Mariners bested the Nationals 9-5 on Sunday.

      Advice: Rodríguez’s three knocks all checked in between 107 and 109 mph. The Mariners had him batting third today after placing him sixth the previous three days. Last year, a drop in the lineup saw him hit two homers in his first game as a No. 5 hitter and resulted in an immediate return to the top of the order. This year’s drop didn’t pay such immediate dividends, but he has now homered on back-to-back days. Rotoworld 42 minutes ago
    • Ty France homers, knocks in three runs
      Ty France had a two-run homer and an RBI single versus the Nationals in Sunday’s win.

      Advice: France seemed to be in line to lose some playing time against righties, but it hasn’t materialized, mostly because sitting Mitch Garver or Mitch Haniger does more for the Mariners defensively. France has also hit a little better than those two anyway, coming in at .243/.301/.384 to date. He still needs to pick it up some from here, though, or acquiring a left-handed-hitting first baseman might be a priority for the Mariners prior to the deadline. Rotoworld 42 minutes ago

    • Johnathan Rodriguez has two hits in win
      Johnathan Rodriguez went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI in a win over the Angels on Sunday.

      Advice: It was a slow start for Rodriguez, but the Guardians’ rookie has been solid his last two times out. Today, he had two of the four hardest-hit balls of the day with a 110.6 mph single and a 107 mph double. It is fair to point out that he also struck out twice and has made three of his four starts against left-handed pitching. That last part is important because it makes it a bit harder to trust that the Guardians will play him over Will Brennan or Kyle Manzaro when they face righties. Rotoworld 46 minutes ago
    • Falls triple short of cycle
      Olson went 3-for-5 with a home run, double, three RBI and a run scored Sunday against the Pirates.

      Advice: Olson's eighth-inning blast off Aroldis Chapman was a no-doubter over the right field wall, clearing the stadium and splashing down in the Allegheny River. Olson had previously added a two-run double and finished the game just a triple short of the cycle. Over his last 13 games, Olson has six multi-hit efforts, batting .308 with four homers, two doubles, 11 RBI and six runs scored in that span. Rotowire.com 48 minutes ago
    • Luis GUillorme has two hits in loss
      Luis Guillorme went 2-for-2 in a loss to the Guardians on Sunday.

      Advice: While Guillorme is most talked about for being thrown under the bus by his manager a week ago, he’s also hitting .280/.333/.380 in a small sample size with the Angels this season. That’s notable because Kyren Paris is hitting just .139/.262/.278 and that’s who Guillorme started over today. The Angels could decide to move Luis Rengifo to second base more often and play Guillorme at third base over Paris. That makes him a player to keep an eye on in AL-only formats but not much more.
