    • Moving to bullpen Wednesday
      Allen will be available out of the bullpen for Wednesday's game against the Royals, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Allen had originally been in line to start Wednesday, but Cleveland will instead give the ball to Nick Sandlin for the first inning. Allen was lit up for seven earned runs in just 1.2 innings during his last start against Colorado and will presumably work in bulk relief against a Royals offense that ranks fourth in the American League with a .724 OPS.

    • Springer homers in blowout loss to Orioles
      George Springer went 1-for-3 with a home run in Tuesday’s loss to the Orioles.

      Advice: The Blue Jays continue to struggle at the plate, with Springer’s home run, his fifth of the season, serving as their only run on the day. Springer is batting just .213 on the season but is 10-for-26 in his last eight games, with two homers and four RBI over that span. Rotoworld 23 minutes ago
       
    • Royce Lewis homers against Yankees in return
      Royce Lewis clubbed a solo homer and walked twice on Tuesday in the Twins’ loss to the Yankees.

      Advice: Of course. Lewis made an immediate impact in his return to Minnesota’s lineup on Tuesday night in New York, taking Yankees veteran reliever Tommy Kahnle deep for a seventh-inning solo shot to left field. The 25-year-old reached base safely in all three of his plate appearances and has two homers in just two games played on the year. The central question for fantasy managers moving forward is whether he can stay on the field for an extended period to establish himself as an elite fantasy contributor at the hot corner.

    • Tommy John surgery scheduled
      Javier (forearm) is scheduled to undergo Tommy John surgery Thursday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: The right-hander landed on the injured list in late May due to right forearm discomfort and is now set to miss the rest of the 2024 campaign. Javier will also be sidelined until at least the second half of 2025 as he rehabs from the surgery. It's been a rough week for Houston pitchers, as Jose Urquidy (elbow) is also in danger of needing the procedure. Rotowire.com Today, 3:47 pm
       
    • Cristian Javier to undergo Tommy John surgery
      The Athletic’s Chandler Rome reports Cristian Javier will undergo Tommy John surgery.

      Advice: It’s a significant hit to Houston’s already razor-thin starting pitching depth as Javier has been a mainstay in their starting rotation for the last three seasons and boasts a stellar 3.59 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 27 percent strikeout rate over 501 innings (116 appearances, 82 starts) in the majors since 2020. Given the timing of the procedure, he’s likely to miss the overwhelming majority of the 2025 campaign as well. Rotoworld Today, 3:46 pm
       
    • Absent from Tuesday's lineup
      Raleigh is not in the Mariners' lineup Tuesday versus the Athletics.

      Advice: Raleigh had a three game hit streak, but will begin Tuesday's matchup from the bench. He did not start May 29 against the Astros, but did come off the bench for two plate appearances. In his place, Mitch Garver has the start behind the plate and Mitch Haniger is the DH. Rotowire.com Today, 3:40 pm
       
    • Kyle Tucker (shin) absent from Tuesday’s lineup
      Kyle Tucker (shin) is absent from the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Cardinals.

      Advice: The encouraging development here for fantasy managers is that X-rays came back negative for any fractures and Tucker hasn’t been placed on the injured list yet following an early exit from Monday’s series opener after fouling a ball off his right shin. It’ll be Mauricio Dubón taking over in right field on Tuesday evening in his absence. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for the moment. Rotoworld Today, 1:29 pm

    • CJ Abrams returns to lineup Tuesday against Mets
      CJ Abrams (shoulder) is back in the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Mets.

      Advice: Abrams is back at shortstop and leading off on Tuesday night at Nationals Park following a three-game absence due to shoulder soreness. The 23-year-old probably could’ve used a few days off since he’s been mired in a mini-slump at the dish recently. He’s been phenomenal overall this season with nine homers and eight steals through 53 contests. Rotoworld Today, 1:08 pm

    • Out Tuesday, still DTD
      Tucker (lower leg) isn't part of the Astros starting lineup Tuesday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Tucker will get the day off after fouling a ball off his right shin Monday night. While X-rays came back negative and manager Joe Espada said Tucker is "feeling better", the outfielder will continue to have his leg examined to ensure that he's merely dealing with a bruise. The Astros could opt to sit Tucker on Wednesday considering it has a team day off Thursday. Rotowire.com Today, 12:48 pm
