    Yankees optioned LHP Josh Maciejewski to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
    The 28-year-old hurler absorbed some damage for the Yankees on Saturday, giving up two runs on three hits and a walk over three innings against the Rays. Expect the Yankees to call up a fresh arm to replace him prior to Sunday’s ballgame.

    Braves claimed RHP José Ruiz off waivers from the Phillies.
    Ruiz heads to Atlanta after posting a calamitous 8.16 ERA across 14 1/3 innings (16 appearances) this season for the division-rival Phillies. The 30-year-old righty, who was designated for assignment last weekend, has made 280 career appearances in the majors dating back to 2017.
    Fantasy impact of Mets SS Lindor breaking his toe
    James Schiano shares the latest news regarding star shortstop Francisco Lindor, who is day-to-day after breaking his toe, also explaining how the injury will affect Luisangel Acuña, Ronny Mauricio and fantasy managers.
  • SF Catcher #23
    Giants sent C Sam Huff outright to Triple-A Sacramento.
    Huff went unclaimed on waivers after being jettisoned from San Francisco’s active roster earlier this week. The 27-year-old former prospect hit just .208 (11-for-53) with two homers and four RBI over 20 games with the Giants. He also struck out 25 times in 58 plate appearances during that span. He’ll remain with the club as organizational catching depth.
  • TB Right Fielder #15
    Josh Lowe and Jonathan Aranda are not in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Marlins.
    Lowe and Aranda head to the bench with tough lefty Ryan Weathers taking the ball on Saturday afternoon for Miami. The Rays will roll out their assortment of lefty-mashing platoon options, including José Caballaro in right field and Curtis Mead in right field and at first base, respectively. It’s worth noting that Mead is on a hot streak of late, hitting .300 (6-for-20) with two homers and one steal over his last seven games.
  • HOU Right Fielder #11
    Cam Smith (illness) remains out of the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Guardians.
    Smith will sit out his second straight game as he continues to battle an illness that led to him being a late scratch from Friday’s lineup. The 22-year-old top prospect has endured an up-and-down rookie campaign, which isn’t uncommon as young player acclimates to everyday life in the big leagues. It’ll be versatile veteran Mauricio Dubón taking over in right field on Saturday afternoon at Progressive Field in Cleveland.
  • MIA Left Fielder #28
    Kyle Stowers (hand) remains out of the lineup for the third consecutive game on Saturday against the Rays.
    Stowers is dealing with a lingering hand issue, which has kept him on the bench since Tuesday’s contest against the Rockies. It doesn’t sound like a massive concern, but it’s a situation fantasy managers should continue monitoring. It’ll be Jesús Sánchez moving over to cover left field with Eric Wagaman in the opposite corner on Saturday afternoon at Steinbrenner Field.
  • PHI 2nd Baseman #5
    Bryson Stott is not in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Pirates.
    Stott gets a rare day off with lefty Bailey Falter drawing the starting assignment on Saturday afternoon at PNC Park. It’ll be Trea Turner moving up to the leadoff spot in his absence. The 27-year-old second baseman has been scuffling in recent weeks, batting .198 (23-for-116) with two homers, 11 RBI and four steals over his last 30 games. Veteran lefty-masher Edmundo Sosa is getting a turn at the keystone in his place.
  • ATL Center Fielder #23
    Michael Harris II is batting sixth on Saturday against the Giants.
    Harris is starting to heat up at the dish of late, batting .281 (16-for-57) with nine RBI and three steals over his last 15 games. The 24-year-old outfielder got off to frosty start in the opening two months of the year, but he’s shown some signs of life recently. He’s begun to move back up Atlanta’s lineup after hitting mostly eighth or ninth since mid-May.
  • PIT Center Fielder #15
    Oneil Cruz is absent from the lineup for Saturday’s showdown against the Phillies.
    Cruz, who is hitting .140 (8-for-57) this season against left-handed pitching, retreats to the bench on Saturday afternoon with crafty veteran Ranger Suárez on the mound for Philadelphia. It’ll be Alexander Canario patrolling center field in his absence.
  • SF Center Fielder #51
    Jung Hoo Lee is not in the lineup for Saturday’s game against Atlanta.
    Lee heads to the bench with Daniel Johnson, who is 2-for-8 with a stolen base in three games since being called up earlier this week, taking over in center field on Saturday afternoon at Oracle Park. The 26-year-old center fielder has been swinging the bat well of late, hitting .283 (15-for-53) with three steals over his last 15 games. It appears to be a routine off day for Lee, who has played almost every game this season for San Francisco.
  • TEX Shortstop #5
    Corey Seager is not in the lineup for Saturday’s contest against the Nationals.
    Seager takes a seat with southpaw Mitchell Parker toeing the rubber for Washington on Saturday afternoon. The 31-year-old fantasy superstar is scuffling at the dish of late, going hitless in five consecutive contests, and is just 2-for-30 since returning from the injured list back on May 28. It’ll be Ezequiel Duran at shortstop while Seager gets a day off to clear his head.
