  • Nabs fourth steal
    Freeman went 2-for-3 with a double and a stolen base in Monday's 2-1 win over the Tigers.

    Advice: Freeman opened May 1-for-12 across four contests, and his last multi-hit effort before Monday was April 19. The 24-year-old is slashing just .204/.301/.347 this season while adding three home runs, four steals, 12 RBI, 17 runs scored and five doubles across 113 plate appearances. With Steven Kwan (hamstring) landing on the injured list Monday, Freeman should have more job security in center field while Estevan Florial, Ramon Laureano and Will Brennan combine to fill the corner outfield spots.

  • Pops homer in win
    Massey went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Monday's 3-2 win over the Brewers.

    Advice: Massey got the Royals on the board in the seventh inning. The second baseman continues to hit well after a brief stretch to get up to speed following his April 19 season debut. Massey has hit safely in nine straight games and has an extra-base hit in five of the last six contests. He's slashing .294/.308/.529 with three homers, 10 RBI, nine runs scored, three doubles and no stolen bases through 53 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:54 pm
     
  • Out against lefty
    Gorman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets.

    Advice: The Cardinals are facing a left-handed starting pitcher (Sean Manaea) for the second day in a row, so the lefty-hitting Gorman will once again head to the bench. Jose Fermin will fill in for Gorman at second base. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:44 pm
     
  • Draws rare start
    Wendle will start at second base and bat seventh in Monday's game against the Cardinals, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    Advice: Wendle will start for just the ninth time through the Mets' 35 games this season, handling second base while Jeff McNeil gets a look in left field. The 34-year-old will likely to continue seeing light use in his utility role unless the Mets lose one of their regular infielders to injury. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:33 pm
     
  • Back on bench Monday
    Dunn is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals.

    Advice: Dunn started at third base in each of the past four contests and went 5-for-13 with a triple, a walk, three runs and an RBI over that stretch. Despite the run of steady playing time of late, Dunn is still expected to move back into a utility role, as manager Pat Murphy noted Sunday that he wanted to give the rookie a more extended look after he had fallen out of favor in recent weeks. Dunn likely hit well enough to maintain his spot on the 26-man active roster for now, but Joey Ortiz still profiles as the Brewers' top option at the hot corner. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:53 pm
     
  • Pablo Reyes sent outright to Triple-A by Boston
    Red Sox sent INF Pablo Reyes outright to Triple-A Worcester.

    Advice: Reyes was designated for assignment and went unclaimed. The 30-year-old could elect free agency, but he also has the option to just report back to the minors to provide organizational depth. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:36 pm

  • Nolan Gorman sitting out again Monday vs. Mets
    Nolan Gorman is not in the lineup Monday against the Mets.

  • Remains in organization
    The Red Sox outrighted Reyes to Triple-A Worcester on Monday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

    Advice: Reyes no longer has a spot on the 40-man roster, but he'll remain in the organization as utility depth. He's put up a .183/.234/.217 batting line over 61 plate appearances with the big club in 2024. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:20 pm

  • Wenceel Pérez (illness) remains out Monday
    Wenceel Pérez (illness) remains out Monday against the Guardians.

    Advice: The outfielder was scratched from the lineup Sunday, and he will remain out of the lineup Monday while he recovers. The 24-year-old sits with Parker Meadows getting a start in his absence. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:18 pm
