Jazz hits go-ahead homer in ninth as Yankees rally

Guerrero is back at first base and hitting third following a three-game absence due to hamstring tightness. He’s been battling the issue since last week. The 27-year-old former fantasy star continues to endure one of the more bizarre seasons in recent memory from an established upper-echelon power hitter, mustering just six homers in 108 games on the year.

Leiter told reporters afterwards that he feels ready for a rehab assignment. The 26-year-old has been on the shelf working his way back from surgery to remove loose bodies from his right ankle in late June. There’s a decent chance he’s back in the Rangers’ rotation by late August.

Clark has gotten off to an extremely encouraging start at the highest level, hitting .321 (9-for-28) with one homer and four RBI through seven games since being called up from Triple-A Toledo last week. The Tigers have shown zero indication that they’re considering moving their top positional prospect towards the top of the order, which limits his counting stats upside for the final two months. He should provide enough of a batting average boost, in addition to some stolen bases, to be worthy of a roster spot in deeper fantasy leagues.

Velázquez cedes his spot on St. Louis’ roster to recent waiver wire acquisition Everson Pereira prior to Saturday’s game against the Rockies. The 27-year-old outfielder hit just .216/.289/.432 with four homers and 12 RBI in 83 plate appearances over 34 games for the Cardinals this season.

No surprise after Benge suffered a left wrist injury on a collision with the left-field wall while making a sliding catch during Friday’s contest. The positive news for the Mets, and fantasy managers, is that initial X-rays came back negative for any fractures. He’s probably going to need a couple days to rest and recover, but early indications are that he avoided serious injury. It’ll be fellow rookie A.J. Ewing taking over in left field with Luis Robert Jr. patrolling center field and Brett Baty in the opposite corner.

Wagaman heads to the minors to clear a spot for newly acquired infielder Gabriel Arias. The 28-year-old was brought up again after Juan Soto hit the injured list back in late July. He’s hit .190 (8-for-42) with two homers and four RBI in the big leagues this season.

Schwarber draws an extremely rare start at the cold corner with Alec Bohm taking a seat in this one. The 33-year-old veteran slugger will be making just his third appearance at the spot this season. He’s highly unlikely to see enough action there over the final two months to pick up eligibility there in most fantasy leagues.

Gore draws the starting assignment for Monday’s series opener against the Angels after spending a couple days away from the club on paternity leave. The 27-year-old tossed six scoreless frames against the Giants his last time out and boasts a serviceable 4.55 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 140/47 K/BB ratio across 128 2/3 innings over 24 starts in his Rangers debut.

Peoples retreats to the minors with starter MacKenzie Gore coming back from paternity leave. The 25-year-old rookie has compiled an encouraging 2.19 ERA across 12 1/3 innings at the highest level this season.

Frelick is working his way back from a shoulder strain that forced him to the injured list back in mid-July. The 26-year-old right fielder is likely to need a handful of games to get back up to speed before returning to Milwaukee’s lineup for the home stretch.
