Player Notes

  • Not starting Tuesday
    Amaya isn't in the Cubs' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies.

    Advice: Amaya will take a seat Tuesday after going just 1-for-10 at the plate over his last four games. Tomas Nido will start at catcher instead while batting ninth. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:32 pm
  • Hitting live BP
    Rodriguez (elbow) has taken live BP from the left side, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Advice: Rodriguez underwent elbow surgery in December and is slated to miss the entirety of the 2024 season. He slashed .220/.284/.328 as a rookie last season. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:03 pm
  • Taking seat against RHP
    Wells is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Cincinnati.

    Advice: Despite right-hander Graham Ashcraft pitching for the Reds, the lefty-hitting Wells will be held out of the Yankees' lineup. Instead, Jose Trevino will bat ninth and catch. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 12:14 pm
  • Absent from starting nine
    Naylor is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox.

    Advice: After catching two straight games, Naylor will yield to Austin Hedges behind the dish Tuesday. In his last eight games, Naylor is 11-for-29 (.379) with a home run and five doubles. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 11:41 am
  • Starts rehab assignment
    Campusano (thumb) went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts in his first rehab game with Single-A Lake Elsinore on Monday.

    Advice: Campusano has missed just over a week of action with a thumb injury, so he shouldn't need too many rehab at-bats before being activated. Kyle Higashioka is coming off an eight-homer June, so it's possible Campusano -- who has just a .588 OPS since May 1 -- will play second fiddle at catcher for the Padres upon his activation.

  • Hunter Goodman sits for Rockies on Monday
    Hunter Goodman is back on the bench Monday after making his first start in four games Sunday.

    Advice: It’s like the Rockies stopped viewing Goodman as an option at first base and in right field after Elias Díaz got hurt last month and still haven’t changed that mindset, even though Díaz is back now. Goodman last started at a position other than catcher on June 10. Obviously, Jake Cave is just too good to sit. Rotoworld Monday, 2:38 pm
  • Released by Miami
    The Marlins released Bethancourt on June 27.

    Advice: Bethancourt had been outrighted off the 40-man roster after clearing waivers but has now been cut loose. The owner of a career .226/.257/.355 batting line over parts of eight seasons, Bethancourt might have to settle for a minor-league contract with his new organization. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:24 am
  • Getting start Monday sans Jansen
    Kirk will start at catcher and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Astros.

    Advice: Kirk should be in store for at least two starts in the four-game series with the Astros while top backstop Danny Jansen likely misses the maximum three games after being placed on the paternity list Monday. Even though Jansen remains atop the depth chart, Kirk had been making a case for more playing time by going 4-for-12 with two doubles, two RBI and a run over his last three starts.

  • Rehab assignment put on pause
    Davis had his rehab assignment with Double-A Altoona put on hold over the weekend after he experienced recurring concussion symptoms, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Initially placed on the 7-day injured list June 15 after experiencing concussion-like symptoms a day earlier in the Pirates' win over the Rockies, Davis was cleared to begin his rehab assignment last Wednesday. However, after appearing in two games with Altoona, Davis suffered an apparent setback and is now without a clear timeline to resume the assignment. With Joey Bart beating Davis back from the 10-day IL on Sunday, the Pirates may not have room for Davis on the big-league roster once his concussion symptoms subside and he's cleared to return from the 7-day IL.
