    Tigers signed first-round pick OF Max Clark.
    Kiley McDaniel of ESPN reports that Clark will receive a $7.7 million signing bonus, which is roughly $600,000 below slot for the third overall pick, to forego his commitment to Vanderbilt to start his professional career. The 18-year-old prep outfielder is an excellent all-around talent and should make an impact for Detroit, and fantasy managers, in a few years.
  • COL Relief Pitcher #45

    Rockies recalled LHP Carson Palmquist from Triple-A Albuquerque.
    Palmquist will take the ball for Monday’s series opener against the Nationals. The 24-year-old rookie southpaw has posted a lackluster 7.77 ERA across 22 innings (five starts) this season in the big leagues. He’s not a recommended option for fantasy purposes.
    Casparius may get good ratios as Dodgers starter
    Eric Samulski analyzes the Dodgers moving Ben Casparius into the starting rotations and what he will bring to fantasy managers in his new role.
  • COL Starting Pitcher #21
    Rockies placed LHP Kyle Freeland on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to June 12, with lower back stiffness.
    Freeland has been scratched from Monday’s scheduled start against the Nationals and will likely wind up missing a couple weeks. It’ll be Carson Palmquist taking his spot in Colorado’s rotation.
  • MIN Center Fielder #25
    Byron Buxton (elbow) has been scratched from Sunday’s lineup against the Astros.
    Buxton was in Sunday’s original lineup after suffering a left elbow contusion when he was hit by a pitch during Saturday’s game. It sounds like a precautionary decision to give him some extra rest. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now.
  • TEX Left Fielder #32
    Evan Carter (wrist) is in the lineup for Sunday’s game against the White Sox.
    Carter talked his way into Sunday’s lineup after showing up to the ballpark feeling ready to go. The 22-year-old has been dealing with some left wrist discomfort since Friday’s game. It’ll be Alejandro Osuna heading to the bench.
  • CWS Center Fielder #88
    Luis Robert Jr. was scratched from Sunday’s lineup with right thumb soreness.
    Robert has not been traded. The 27-year-old outfielder takes a seat for Sunday’s series finale, likely for precautionary reasons, with veteran Michael A. Taylor taking over in center field. He figures to be ready for Tuesday’s series opener against the Cardinals. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now.
  • CHC Left Fielder #30
    Kyle Tucker is not in the lineup for Sunday’s showdown against the Pirates.
    It appears to be a routine off day for Tucker with Seiya Suzuki heading out to patrol right field on Sunday afternoon against the Pirates. The 28-year-old fantasy superstar has been scuffling of late by his lofty standards, hitting .240 (12-for-50) with only one homer and two steals over his last 15 contests.
  • TB 1st Baseman #2
    Yandy Díaz is on the bench to open Sunday’s showdown against the Mets.
    Díaz takes a seat amid a sizzling-hot stretch where he’s batting .355 (22-for-62) with three homers and 12 RBI over his last 15 games. He’s hitting .433 (13-for-30) over his past seven games alone. It’s Junior Caminero taking a turn at DH with Jonathan Aranda at the cold corner on Sunday afternoon facing Mets righty Griffin Canning.
  • ATH 1st Baseman #21
    Tyler Soderstrom is on the bench for Sunday’s game against the Royals.
    It appears to be a routine day off for Soderstrom, who has split time between left field and first base of late with Nick Kurtz back from the injured list. It’ll be JJ Bleday getting an opportunity in left field on Sunday afternoon in his place.
  • TEX Left Fielder #32
    Evan Carter (wrist) is not in the lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the White Sox.
    Carter told reporters his left wrist felt “outstanding” prior to Sunday’s contest, so we’re assuming his absence for the second consecutive game is merely out of an abundance of caution prior to Monday’s off-day. The 22-year-old outfielder should be ready to return for Tuesday’s series opener against the Royals, barring an unexpected development.
  • TEX Starting Pitcher #80
    Rangers recalled RHP Kumar Rocker from Triple-A Round Rock.
    Rocker draws the starting assignment for Sunday’s game against the White Sox with veteran Tyler Mahle hitting the injured list with shoulder soreness. The 25-year-old is a captivating talent, but the results simply haven’t been there this season in the majors. He’s recorded a bloated 8.87 ERA across 23 1/3 innings (six starts) and is not a recommended streaming option for fantasy purposes, even in a tasty matchup against a rebuilding Chicago club.
