  • Sitting against lefty
    Gordon is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Gordon will sit for the fourth time in five games, with the Marlins having faced left-handed starting pitchers on each of those four occasions. He'll cede his spot in the lineup to Emmanuel Rivera as the Marlins stock up on an extra right-handed bat to counter Nationals southpaw Mitchell Parker. Rotowire.com Today, 8:25 am
  • Jose Caballero (illness) back in lineup Sunday
    Jose Caballero (illness) is back in the lineup for Sunday’s game against Atlanta.

    Advice: Caballero was removed from Friday’s game due to illness, and didn’t play Saturday. The 27-year-old is feeling well enough to go against Atlanta on Sunday, and he’ll hit ninth and play shortstop against Hurston Waldrep and the ATL pitching staff. Rotoworld Today, 8:11 am
  • Swipes 18th bag
    Rengifo went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a stolen base in Saturday's 4-3 victory versus San Francisco.

    Advice: Rengifo doubled in the first inning but was left stranded at third. In the seventh, he produced the game-winning run on a two-out RBI single that he followed with a stolen base. After swiping just six bases in 126 games last year, Rengifo has taken off with 18 thefts through 54 contests this season. That alone has given him ample fantasy value, and he's boosted his stock with a .315/.360/.437 slash line while adding four homers, 20 RBI and 26 runs. Rotowire.com Today, 8:11 am

  • Clubs three-run homer
    Sosa went 3-for-5 in Saturday's win over Arizona with a double and a three-run home run.

    Advice: Sosa singled in his third trip to the plate and was later thrown out at home on a fielder's choice play. However, he would come right back with a two-out, three-run home run in the following inning to increase the White Sox's lead to five runs while also adding a double in the ninth. It marked the third baseman's first three-hit performance of the season and his fifth multi-hit effort this month, where he's now batting .333 with two homers and seven RBI.

  • Returns to lineup
    Caballero (illness) is in the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

    Advice: After leaving Friday's game due to illness and sitting Saturday, Caballero will return to face rookie right-hander Hurston Waldrep. Taylor Walls has eaten into Caballero's time at shortstop since returning from the injured list, but Caballero is still seeing fairly regular time around the infield for Tampa Bay.

  • On bench again Sunday
    Mateo is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Advice: Mateo will remain on the bench in favor of Ramon Urias -- with Jordan Westburg at second base -- after Urias went 2-for-4 in Saturday's win. While it's a second straight absence for Mateo after four consecutive starts fresh off the 7-day concussion list, there has been no hint of an injury setback. Rotowire.com Today, 7:38 am

  • Extends hitting streak
    Gonzales went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, two RBI and two runs scored Saturday against Colorado.

    Advice: Gonzales tallied Pittsburgh's first run of the game with a solo home run in the fourth inning, his fifth long ball of the season. That knock also extended his hitting streak to six games, and he's hitting .292 with nine RBI and five runs scored across 12 contests in June. Rotowire.com Today, 7:08 am
  • Resumes all activity
    Rodgers (hamstring) has engaged in all baseball activities in recent days, MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Rodgers has been running and hitting soft toss, though he took another step forward by doing light fielding drills Saturday. The team has said they expect Rodgers to return shortly after he's eligible and his current level of activity suggests he remains on track. Rotowire.com Today, 7:00 am
  • Lenyn Sosa homers, drives in three in blowout win
    Lenyn Sosa went 3-for-5 with a three-run homer to help the White Sox to a 9-2 victory over the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

    Advice: Sosa nearly doubled the lead for the White Sox with a three-run homer to make it 7-2 in the seventh. The 24-year-old also doubled and singled. There have been some flashes for Sosa thus far in 2024 — albeit inconsistent ones — and the three-hit game improves his slash to .250/.291/.392. He remains much more a long-term option than a quality one for the remainder of this campaign. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:08 pm
