    • Grisham swats fifth home run against Blue Jays
      Trent Grisham went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run against the Blue Jays on Thursday.

      Advice: Grisham provided all of the Yankees offense on Thursday. He hit a two-run home run off Jose Berrios in the fifth inning. It was only his fifth home run of the season, but he should continue to see an increase in playing time in the Yankees outfield with Giancarlo Stanton on the shelf. Rotoworld Today, 6:50 pm
       
    • Manuel Margot drives in pair in blowout victory
      Manuel Margot went 2-for-5 with two RBI in a victory over the Twins on Thursday.

      Advice: He also scored twice in a game where Minnesota crossed the plate 13 times. Margot picked up his RBI with an infield single in the second and a sacrifice fly an inning later. The 29-year-old has been hitting at the top of the lineup against southpaws as of late, but his .238/.307/.325 slash shows he hasn’t really taken advantage of that slot. Rotoworld Today, 4:45 pm

    • Will Brennan to IL with rib cage inflammation
      Guardians placed OF Will Brennan on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to June 25, with rib cage inflammation.

      Advice: Brennan heads to the injured list after missing a couple games earlier this week due to a possible oblique issue. He’s been diagnosed with rib cage inflammation, so the hope here is that he isn’t facing a lengthy absence. There should be an official return timetable in the coming days. Rotoworld Today, 2:38 pm

    • To IL with strained oblique
      The Guardians placed Brennan on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a strained oblique.

      Advice: Brennan last played on Monday and evidently must have tweaked his oblique during that game in Baltimore. He will be eligible to return late next week, but with the severity of the strain not known, it's uncertain how long he'll actually be sidelined. Daniel Schneemann, Gabriel Arias and Jhonkensy Noel could all pick up more at-bats while Brennan is out. Rotowire.com Today, 1:47 pm

    • Idle against southpaw
      Siani isn't in the Cardinals' lineup for Thursday's game against the Reds, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

      Advice: Left-hander Andrew Abbott will take the mound Thursday for the Reds, so the lefty-hitting Siani will retreat to St. Louis' bench. Dylan Carlson will get the nod to start in center field instead, batting seventh. Rotowire.com Today, 12:32 pm
       
    • Sitting Thursday
      Laureano isn't in Atlanta's lineup for Thursday's game against the White Sox.

      Advice: Laureano has slashed .257/.257/.457 with a homer and four RBI in 35 plate appearances since joining Atlanta on June 15. He'll get a breather versus Chad Kuhl and the Sox, allowing Adam Duvall to start in right field and bat eighth. Rotowire.com Today, 11:12 am
       
    • Playing time drying up
      Martin is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Martin had previously made starts in five consecutive games at three different positions from June 16 through June 21, but his playing time has since trended downward while the Twins have had all regular members of their lineup available. He'll be on the bench for the fourth time in five contests and will likely see limited opportunities moving forward, unless an injury opens up a path to a starting role. Rotowire.com Today, 10:31 am

    • Getting regular playing time
      Matos will start in right field and bat sixth Thursday against the Cubs, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

      Advice: Matos is being included in the lineup for the fifth time in six games, and he looks like he'll hang on to a regular role in the corner outfield while Mike Yastrzemski (oblique) is on the injured list. Since getting called up from Triple-A Sacramento last weekend, Matos has gone 6-for-14 with a solo home run. Rotowire.com Today, 10:22 am

    • Resting against lefty
      Wisely is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Cubs, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

      Advice: The lefty-hitting Wisely will take a seat for the second time during the four-game series with the Cubs while Chicago sends another lefty (Shota Imanaga) to the hill. Nick Ahmed will fill in for Wisely at shortstop, while outfielder Austin Slater replaces Wisely atop the batting order. Rotowire.com Today, 10:17 am
