Activated and optionedThe Pirates activated Bae (wrist) from the 10-day injured list Monday and optioned him to Triple-A Indianapolis, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Advice: Bae has recovered from the sprained right wrist that sent him to the IL earlier this month, but the Pirates have elected to keep him at Indianapolis, where he had been on a rehab assignment. He's gone 5-for-24 at the plate this season for the Pirates and has missed time with hip and wrist problems. Pittsburgh will proceed with a platoon of Jack Suwinski and Michael Taylor in center field. Rotowire.comJi Hwan BaePIT - 2B,OFL, 5-11 @CIN -
Hitless out of leadoff spot SundayLoftin went 0-for-4 in Sunday's 4-0 loss to the Rangers.
Advice: Though Loftin didn't provide any noteworthy production Sunday, he occupied the leadoff spot for the Royals for the second time in four games. While Kansas City hasn't yet settled on a permanent option atop the batting order, manager Matt Quatraro seems to have at least temporarily pulled the plug on the slumping Maikel Garcia as the club's leadoff hitter. With Garcia batting seventh and eighth in the final two games of the series in Texas, both Loftin and Adam Frazier received looks in the leadoff spot, though Loftin's assignment Sunday might have been a byproduct of Frazier missing the game with a thumb sprain. Even if Loftin sets the table for Kansas City again Monday versus Marlins, he may not stick in the everyday lineup for long. Michael Massey (back) is nearing a return from the 10-day injured list and likely to take back a regular spot at second base. Rotowire.comNick LoftinKC - 2BW, 4-1 vs MIA -
Notches fifth stealOrtiz went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Padres.
Advice: Ortiz logged his second multi-hit effort in a row after going 11 contests without one. The infielder has maintained a strong .278/.383/.449 slash line with six home runs, five steals, 27 RBI, 31 runs scored, 13 doubles and two triples over 244 plate appearances this season. While the overall numbers are good, he has just three extra-base hits across 20 games in June. Rotowire.comJoey OrtizMIL - 2B,3BW, 6-3 vs TEX -
Sitting SundayClement is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.
Advice: Clement will begin Sunday's game in the dugout after going 0-for-4 with one strikeout in Saturday's 6-3 loss. Addison Barger will start at the hot corner Sunday and bat sixth against Cleveland right-hander Triston McKenzie. Rotowire.comErnie ClementTOR - 2B,3B,SSL, 6-7 @BOS -
Scratched Sunday with thumb sprainFrazier was scratched from Sunday's lineup against the Rangers due to a right thumb sprain, Joel Goldberg of Bally Sports Kansas City reports.
Advice: Frazier was slated to serve as the designated hitter and bat from the leadoff spot Sunday, but Nelson Velazquez will step in as the DH instead. Frazier sustained a right thumb sprain after colliding with Garrett Hampson in the outfield in Saturday's 6-0 loss to the Rangers. Frazier is slashing .226/.273/.419 with one solo home run across 31 at-bats in June. Rotowire.comAdam FrazierKC - 2B,OFW, 4-1 vs MIA -
Adam Frazier scratched from Sunday’s lineupAdam Frazier has been scratched from Sunday’s lineup.
Advice: No word yet on the reason for the change. It’ll be Nelson Velásquez taking over at designated hitter and Nick Loftin moving up to the leadoff spot in Frazier’s absence during Sunday’s game against the Rangers. RotoworldAdam FrazierKC - 2B,OFW, 4-1 vs MIA -
Smacks second homerLux went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Saturday's win over the Angels.
Advice: Lux drew nine pitches in his first at-bat before clobbering a solo shot off Zach Plesac to put the Dodgers on the board. The second baseman would also add an RBI single in the fifth, giving him just his third multi-hit performance this month. Lux has now hit safely in three of his last four contests, posting three RBI and three runs over that brief stretch. Saturday also marked the first time in his last six games that he didn't strike out. Rotowire.com -
Busy day in winLopez went 3-for-4 with an RBI, a run scored and a stolen base in a 5-1 win over the Tigers on Saturday.
Advice: Lopez singled in the third inning then hit an RBI double in the fourth to give the White Sox a 2-0 lead. In the sixth frame, he singled, stole second and came around to score on a single by Lenyn Sosa. Lopez entered the contest just 10-for-50 in June. The second baseman is now hitting .239 with six RBI and three steals over 209 at-bats this season. Rotowire.comNicky LopezCWS - 2B,3B,SSL, 0-3 vs LAD -

Advice: Drury had been scratched from the starting lineup on back-to-back nights, but he won't be listed as a starter for Saturday's series finale due to illness. He'll have a team day off Sunday to recover before Monday's matchup with Oakland. Luis Guillorme will play second base and bat ninth Saturday. Rotowire.comBrandon DruryLAA - 1B,2BW, 5-1 vs OAK
