    • Hit hard by Minnesota
      Severino (7-4) took the loss Wednesday, surrendering six runs on six hits and two walks over three innings as the Mets fell 8-3 to the Twins. He struck out two.

      Advice: Three of the hits off the right-hander went for extra bases, including a solo homer by Byron Buxton in the second inning and a two-run blast by Matt Wallner in the third. Severino has given up only four runs and zero homers in his last three starts combined, but he remains prone to poor outings -- he's been tagged for at least six runs in three of his last eight trips to the mound, stumbling to a 5.32 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 36:14 K:BB through 45.2 innings over that stretch. He could have a hard time righting the ship in his next start, which is scheduled to come on the road early next week in Coors Field. Rotowire.com Today, 5:16 pm
       
    • Jake Cronenworth sits against southpaw Wednesday
      Jake Cronenworth is absent from the Padres’ starting lineup on Wednesday night against the Dodgers.

      Advice: Cronenworth will get a rare night off with left-hander Clayton Kershaw taking the mound for the Dodgers. Donovan Solano will start in his place at first base and will bat fifth for the Padres on Wednesday evening in San Diego. Rotoworld Today, 1:41 pm
       
    • Sitting against left-hander
      Cronenworth is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Dodgers.

      Advice: Left-hander Clayton Kershaw will be the starting pitcher for the Dodgers, offering an opportunity for the lefty-hitting Cronenworth to get a little rest. Donovan Solano will play first base for the Padres. Rotowire.com Today, 1:35 pm
       
    • Byron Buxton slugs 13th homer vs. Mets
      Byron Buxton went 1-for-3 with a home run and two runs scored against the Mets on Wednesday.

      Advice: Buxton got the scoring started Wednesday with a solo homer off Luis Severino in the second inning. He was later hit by a pitch to lead off the eighth and scored on a groundout. The 30-year-old outfielder is hitting a solid .278/.332/.512 with 13 homers, 48 runs scored, 44 RBI, and six steals across 307 plate appearances. Rotoworld Today, 1:06 pm
       
    • Luis Severino hit for six runs in loss to Twins
      Luis Severino allowed six runs over three innings in a loss to the Twins on Wednesday.

      Advice: Severino worked a clean first inning, then surrendered a solo homer to Byron Buxton in the second. The Twins then put together five straight hits to start the third inning, including a two-run homer by Matt Wallner, to drive in five runs. Severino would get out of the frame and that would be it. The 30-year-old right-hander will look to bounce back when he takes a 3.93 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, and a 96/44 K/BB ratio across 123 2/3 innings into a start against the Rockies in Colorado on Tuesday.

    • Day off Wednesday
      Wong is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest versus the Mariners, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

      Advice: Wong had caught each of the previous five games for the Red Sox, so he will get some rest during Wednesday's afternoon tilt. Danny Jansen will start behind the dish. Rotowire.com Today, 9:38 am

    • Touches 97 mph in live BP
      Garrett (elbow) has been cleared to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday after touching 97 mph in a live batting practice session Wednesday, Joe Pantorno of amNewYork Metro reports.

      Advice: Garrett has been sidelined since mid-July with right elbow inflammation but looks to be healthy again. Given the short absence, Garrett might require just the one rehab appearance before rejoining the Mets' bullpen. Rotowire.com Today, 9:13 am

    • Drives in three Tuesday
      Moore went 2-for-3 with a three-run double, another two-bagger, a stolen base and a walk in a win over the Red Sox on Tuesday.

      Advice: The hot-hitting Moore delivered a clutch double in the fifth inning with the Mariners having just forged a one-run lead, driving home Jorge Polanco, Victor Robles (hip) and Randy Arozarena. The double pushed Moore's RBI total to seven over his last five games, while also extending his hitting streak to five games. The 31-year-old has started putting good wood on the ball again following a quiet stretch earlier in July, as he's laced four doubles in the last three contests alone. Rotowire.com Today, 8:15 am

    • Close to facing hitters
      Schmidt (lat) is expected to be cleared to throw live batting practice soon, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Schmidt is moving along slowly but surely in his throwing program as he works his way back from a right lat strain. The hurler will need to face hitters at least a couple times before being cleared for a rehab assignment. He's still several weeks away from a return but is progressing well.
