Blake DeWitt

ATL 2nd Baseman

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Dodgers purchased the contracts of third baseman Blake DeWitt and infielder Angel Chavez from Triple-A Las Vegas.

DeWitt will start at third base until Nomar Garciaparra comes off the DL. Chavez can serve as a utilityman, but what starts that don’t go to the regulars should go to Chin-Lung Hu.

Zack Gelof

ATH 2nd Baseman #20

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Athletics recalled INF Zack Gelof from Triple-A Las Vegas.

The dynamic 26-year-old infielder was off to a hot start at Triple-A Las Vegas, slashing .366/.519/.732 with four homers, 10 RBI, three stolen bases and an impressive 7/13 K/BB ratio over 54 plate appearances in his first 11 games. Gelof is not in the A’s starting lineup for Friday night’s showdown against Clay Holmes and the Mets in New York.

Brent Rooker

ATH Right Fielder #25

Athletics placed OF Brent Rooker on the 10-day injured list with a right oblique strain.

Rooker suffered the injury while swinging a bat during the first inning of Thursday’s contest against the Yankees. We have still yet to hear about the severity of the injury, but even the mildest of oblique strains usually require at least a couple of weeks of rest to fully heal. Zack Gelof was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas to take his place on the A’s active roster.

José Berríos

TOR Starting Pitcher #17

José Berríos (elbow) is expected to begin a minor league rehab assignment next week.

The expectation is that the 31-year-old hurler will throw around 50 pitches in his first rehab start and build up from there. If everything goes according to plan, he could be an option to join the Jays’ rotation in late April or early May.

Drew Rasmussen

TB Starting Pitcher #57
Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports that the Rays are looking to have Drew Rasmussen start on Sunday against the Yankees.

Topkin notes that there are still discussions to be had before that’s confirmed though. Rasmussen missed his start on Tuesday as his wife went into labor and he landed on the paternity list. If he does indeed go on Sunday, that means Shane McClanahan will have his start pushed back until Tuesday against the White Sox in Chicago.

Brent Rooker

ATH Right Fielder #25
Brent Rooker (right flank discomfort) is not in the Athletics’ starting lineup on Friday against the Mets.

Zach Gelof was spotted in the clubhouse by MLB.com’s Martin Gallegos and it would not be surprising if Rooker was sent to the injured list, though it hasn’t happened yet. Carlos Cortes is DHing for the A’s in Rooker’s absence.

Deyvison De Los Santos

MIA 3rd Baseman #63

Marlins recalled 1B/3B Deyvison De Los Santos from Triple-A Jacksonville.

We’ll see if De Los Santos can crack the Marlins lineup in his second stint with the club in the last couple weeks. He’s not in the lineup tonight as Javier Sanoja handles left field with a righty on the mound. Until then, he’s a speculative pickup at best and probably is someone fantasy managers should monitor rather than rush to the waiver wire for.

Griffin Conine

MIA Left Fielder #18
Marlins placed OF Griffin Conine on the 10-day injured list with a torn hamstring.

Conine was off to a nice start at the head of a platoon in left field for the Marlins, but will likely miss significant time with this and surgery is likely for the 28-year-old left fielder. Heriberto Hernández has been the starter against lefties and figures to get some of Conine’s time, but it may not be quite as open-and-shut as that with Deyvison De Los Santos up from Triple-A Jacksonville and Kyle Stowers due back soon.

Colton Cowser

BAL Left Fielder #17

Colton Cowser is not in the starting lineup Friday against the Giants.

Cowser has now played in just three of the last six games for the Orioles as Tyler O’Neill and Dylan Beavers are both pushing for playing time. Cowser is hitting just .182/.269/.227 with no homers and steals through his first 27 plate appearances and doesn’t necessarily have the look of someone who needs to be rostered in 12-team leagues.

Chandler Simpson

TB Center Fielder #14

Chandler Simpson is batting leadoff for the Rays against the Yankees on Friday.

It’s his first appearance in the leadoff spot all season, and he’s typically hit fifth or lower in the lineup. It would be great news for Simpson’s fantasy value if this continued. The speedester is off to a .391/.429/.435 start in his first 49 plate appearances and has five steals over that timespan.

Mark Vientos

NYM 3rd Baseman #27
Mark Vientos is not in New York’s starting lineup on Friday against the Athletics.

After starting the last seven games in a row, this appears to just be a routine day off for Vientos, who is hitless in his last three appearances. Ronny Mauricio is starting at third base for the Mets and batting seventh.
