Player Notes

  • Out of Sunday's lineup
    Canzone is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

    Advice: Canzone will hit the bench Sunday for a second straight day after starting the previous six contests. He's gone 2-for-16 with 10 strikeouts since he collected four hits June 22 in Miami. Dylan Moore will start in left field Sunday, pushing Luke Raley to right. Rotowire.com 3 minutes ago
  • Hitting bench Sunday
    McKinstry is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

    Advice: With southpaw Tyler Anderson on the hill for the Angels, the lefty-hitting McKinstry will duck out of the lineup. Ryan Kreidler will step in for McKinstry at shortstop. Rotowire.com 8 minutes ago

  • Reds send Peyton Burdick outright to Triple-A
    Reds sent OF Peyton Burdick outright to Triple-A Louisville.

    Advice: Burdick went unclaimed after being placed on the waiver wire. The outfielder will provide outfield depth in the minors for the remainder of 2024. Rotoworld 15 minutes ago
  • Idle against lefty
    Wisely is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Wisely will take a seat in favor of the righty-hitting Tyler Fitzgerald, who will cover second base while the Giants face off against southpaw James Paxton. Though he's still holding down a strong-side platoon role in the middle infield, Wisely's run as the Giants' primary leadoff man versus right-handed pitching has come to an end in the wake of LaMonte Wade's return from the injured list Friday. Wade had actually batted second both of the previous two days against right-handed pitching, but Jorge Soler moved into the leadoff spot while Wisely dropped to eighth in the order.

  • Retreating to bench vs. lefty
    Wade is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

    Advice: The platoon-happy Giants will hold out Wade and fellow lefty-hitting regulars Michael Conforto and Brett Wisely while the Dodgers send a southpaw (James Paxton) to the hill. David Villar will check in at first base in place of Wade, who went 2-for-9 with a double, a walk and a run scored in the first two games of the series following his return from a month-long stay on the injured list due to a hamstring strain.

  • Resting against southpaw
    Conforto is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

    Advice: With southpaw James Paxton toeing the slab for the Dodgers, the lefty-hitting Conforto will be given the afternoon off. Luis Matos will fill in for Conforto in left field. Rotowire.com 27 minutes ago
  • Hitting streak over at 25
    Reynolds went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in Sunday's 4-2 win against Atlanta.

    Advice: Reynolds didn't get the ball out of the infield on Sunday with a pair of groundouts to go with two strikeouts. His 25-game hitting streak is the longest in MLB this season and the fifth longest by a Pirates player since 1900. He entered June with a .249/.320/.402 slash line and finishes at .274/.341/.466. The 29-year-old has 13 homers, 46 RBI and five stolen bases for the season. Rotowire.com 38 minutes ago
  • Exiting starting nine Sunday
    Biggio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Advice: Biggio will head to the bench after he started at third base over the first two games of the series, going 0-for-5 with two strikeouts. Chris Taylor will step in at third base in place of Biggio, who is slashing just .167/.265/.167 with a 35.3 percent strikeout rate since being acquired from the Blue Jays on June 12.

  • Hitting bench in Candelario's return
    Martini is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

    Advice: Martini had started in each of the past four games, but his uptick in playing time appears to be linked to Jeimer Candelario (hamstring) missing each of those contests. With Candelario back in the lineup Sunday as the Reds' designated hitter, Martini's opportunities are likely to take a hit moving forward. Rotowire.com Today, 11:09 am
