  • Erick Fedde hurls six scoreless to beat Guardians
    Erick Fedde struck out three over six shutout innings on Thursday in a win over the Guardians.

    Advice: Fedde scattered six hits over six strong frames and got more than enough run support from Chicago’s lineup to pick up his third win of the year. It was a nice bounce-back effort after walking five batters and allowing five runs his last time out against the Cardinals. He’ll bring a solid 3.00 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 44/14 K/BB ratio across 45 innings (eight starts) into a home outing on Tuesday against the Nationals. Rotoworld Today, 8:03 pm

  • Ben Lively goes 5 2/3 frames in loss to White Sox
    Ben Lively allowed three runs over 5 2/3 innings on Thursday in a loss to the White Sox.

    Advice: Lively got into trouble right away as Andrew Vaughn, Paul DeJong and Tommy Pham got to him for run-scoring hits in the first two frames, which was more than enough to saddle him with a loss. He struck out two and also issued three walks. The 32-year-old journeyman has been an unexpected bright spot for Cleveland this season, registering a sparkling 2.63 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 26/9 K/BB ratio across 27 1/3 innings (five starts). He’ll face the defending World Series champion Rangers on Tuesday in his next outing. Rotoworld Today, 8:03 pm

  • Does fielding drills
    Bryant (back) did infield drills and hit in the batting cage prior to the Rockies' game against the Giants on Wednesday, Patrick Saunders of the Denver Post reports.

    Advice: Bryant has progressed slowly since landing on the injured list, and it has since been disclosed that he has disc and arthritis issues in his lower back. He took a step forward Wednesday, making his first participation in baseball activities since being sidelined. Manager Bud Black noted that Bryant will likely need a rehab assignment, meaning there's a good chance he won't be activated until at least late May. Rotowire.com Today, 8:00 pm

  • Promoted to majors
    Paris was recalled from Double-A Rocket City on Thursday.

    Advice: With both Brandon Drury (hamstring) and Luis Rengifo (illness) sidelined, the Angels were shorthanded along the infield. Paris boasts enough defensive versatility to help the team in that regard, as he is capable of playing second base and shortstop as well as in the outfield. His ability to contribute as a hitter is far less clear, as he was striking out at a 39.1 percent clip across 92 plate appearances with Rocket City prior to his promotion.

  • Sidelined by illness
    Rengifo (illness) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday.

    Advice: Rengifo has been held out of the lineup for five straight games with the illness, so his stint on the injured list will be retroactive to May 6. Kyren Paris was recalled from Double-A Rocket City in the corresponding move and should take over in a utility role while Rengifo is sidelined. Rotowire.com Today, 6:40 pm

  • Placed on injured list
    Drury (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday.

    Advice: Drury exited Wednesday's game after dealing with tightness in his hamstring, an issue he first dealt with in mid-April. He'll be sidelined for at least the next 10 days, leaving Luis Guillorme as the Angels' projected starting second baseman in the short term. Rotowire.com Today, 6:36 pm

  • Angels recall shortstop Kyren Paris on Thursday
    Angels recalled INF Kyren Paris from Double-A Rocket City.

    Advice: Paris provides Los Angeles with some emergency infield depth with both Luis Rengifo (viral infection) and Brandon Drury (hamstring) hitting the injured list. The 22-year-old shortstop got into 15 games last year for the Angels. Rotoworld Today, 6:32 pm
     
  • Angels put Brandon Drury (hamstring) on 10-day IL
    Angels placed INF Brandon Drury on the 10-day injured list with a left hamstring strain.

    Advice: No word yet on the severity of the injury, which will determine how long Drury remains on the shelf. The 31-year-old suffered the injury during Wednesday’s contest against the Pirates and figures to miss at least a couple weeks. Rotoworld Today, 6:30 pm

  • Luis Rengifo (viral infection) lands on 10-day IL
    Angels placed INF Luis Renfigo on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to May 6, with a viral infection.

    Advice: Rengifo finally heads to the injured list following a five-game absence due to a viral infection. The 27-year-old infielder should be ready to return when first eligible to be activated later next week. Rotoworld Today, 6:28 pm
