    Braves transferred LHP Ray Kerr from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list.
    Kerr is out for the season after undergoing elbow surgery. This move was made to open up a spot on the 40-man roster for Eli White. Kerr had a 5.64 ERA in 10 appearances with Atlanta this season.
  • MIA Starting Pitcher #27

    Edward Cabrera (elbow) will not have any restrictions on Tuesday against the Padres.
    It’s an encouraging development for fantasy managers that Cabrera won’t be on a strict pitch count when he takes the ball for the first time since undergoing an MRI last week that didn’t reveal any structural damage in his elbow. The 27-year-old righty has pitched like an upper-echelon fantasy starter of late, so it’s a relief that he managed to avoid a trip to the injured list.
    Dodgers relievers to add following Scott's injury
    With the Dodgers "all but a lock" to add a reliever before the trade deadline following Tanner Scott's injury, Eric Samulski assesses which arms could be in line for precious save opportunities.
  • ATL 3rd Baseman #27
    Braves manager Brian Snitker told reporters Austin Riley (abdomen) was not activated on Tuesday due to renewed discomfort.
    Snitker elaborated that Riley isn’t dealing with a setback, but the club decided to give him a couple additional days out of an abundance of caution. He added that the 28-year-old third baseman will likely be activated for Friday’s series opener against the Rangers.
  • TEX Starting Pitcher #17
    Nathan Eovaldi (back) told reporters he’s feeling good physically and should be able to start without any limitations on Wednesday against the Athletics.
    Barring a last-minute development, which can’t be ruled out when it comes to back issues, Eovaldi should take the ball for Wednesday’s series finale at Globe Life Field. The 35-year-old veteran was scratched from Sunday’s outing against the Tigers with back tightness, but it doesn’t appear to be a concern moving forward.
  • SD Relief Pitcher #32
    Padres recalled RHP Stephen Kolek from Triple-A El Paso.
    Kolek draws the starting assignment for Tuesday’s showdown against the Marlins at pitcher-friendly loanDepot park. It’s a decent matchup for the 28-year-old righty, but he’s not a recommended streaming option for fantasy managers outside of deeper NL-only formats. He’s posted a pedestrian 4.24 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 49/22 K/BB ratio across 68 innings (12 starts) this season for the Padres.
  • SD Starting Pitcher #68
    Padres recalled LHP Kyle Hart from Triple-A El Paso.
    Hart provides the Padres with some additional long relief depth behind starter Stephen Kolek for Tuesday’s contest against the Marlins. The 32-year-old lefty has struggled to an inflated 5.83 ERA across 29 1/3 innings (seven appearances, six starts) this season in his stateside return. He can be safely ignored in all fantasy formats.
  • SD Relief Pitcher #78
    Padres optioned RHP Bryan Hoeing to Triple-A El Paso.
    Hoeing returns to the minors after compiling a solid 3.38 ERA across eight innings (seven appearances) for San Diego since returning from the injured list back in late June. The 28-year-old righty figures to return at some point in August.
  • SD Relief Pitcher #37
    Padres optioned RHP Alek Jacob to Triple-A El Paso.
    Jacob returns to the minors with San Diego adding some extra length to their relief corps. The 27-year-old righty has posted a bloated 6.39 ERA across 25 1/3 innings (23 appearances) this season at the big-league level.
  • NYY Shortstop #11
    Anthony Volpe has been dropped to ninth in the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Blue Jays.
    Volpe has been dropped to the bottom of Yankees manager Aaron Boone’s lineup card amid a disastrous .142 (15-for-106) stretch over his last 30 games, which includes just four homers and three steals during that span. The 24-year-old shortstop has 12 homers and 10 steals through 99 games this season, but he’s underwhelmed relative to fantasy managers’ lofty expectations.
  • KC Starting Pitcher #44
    Royals selected the contract of LHP Rich Hill from Triple-A Omaha.
    Hill will take the ball on Tuesday night at Wrigley Field against the Cubs where his kicked off his big-league career back in 2005. The 45-year-old southpaw is not a recommended streaming option for fantasy purposes, but he’s a remarkable story as he embarks on his 21st campaign in the majors.
  • KC Relief Pitcher #54
    Royals optioned RHP Andrew Hoffmann to Triple-A Omaha.
    Hoffman returns to the minors to make room for veteran lefty Rich Hill on Kansas City’s active roster. The 25-year-old righty has made three relief appearances this season in the big leagues.
