Colin Holderman

PIT Relief Pitcher #35

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Despite giving up a run in the ninth, Colin Holderman notched a save Thursday against the Braves.

It appears the Pirates decided to give David Bednar a second straight day off after he worked four of the previous five days and had a rough outing Tuesday. Holderman surrendered his first run since July 14, but he struck out three of the five batters he faced. He now has two saves to go along with his 17 holds.

Justin Verlander

DET Starting Pitcher #35

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Justin Verlander (hip) threw 40 pitches during a successful high-intensity bullpen session on Saturday.

The most encouraging news is that the 43-year-old hurler still felt good on Sunday morning. It’s unclear if he’ll require a minor league tune-up before he’s cleared to return to the Tigers’ rotation, but it doesn’t sound like he’s going to be shelved for much longer.

Joey Gerber

NYM Relief Pitcher #56

Mets recalled RHP Joey Gerber from Triple-A Syracuse.

Gerber, 28, wasn’t pitching that well at the Triple-A level, registering a 5.40 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and a 5/1 K/BB ratio over his five innings of work. He’ll work in a middle relief role for the Mets. Veteran right-hander Luis García was designated for assignment in a corresponding move on Sunday.

Luis García

NYM Relief Pitcher #40

Mets designated RHP Luis García for assignment.

The 39-year-old hurler struggled through six appearances with the Mets, posting a 7.11 ERA, 2.05 WHIP and a 4/2 K/BB ratio over 6 1/3 innings. The timing is a bit interesting though after he bounced back to throw a scoreless frame during Saturday’s game. Joey Gerber was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse in a corresponding move to take his place in the Mets’ bullpen.

Mark Vientos

NYM 3rd Baseman #27
Mark Vientos is once again on the Mets’ bench for Sunday’s series finale against the Athletics.

It’s the second time in three games over the weekend that Vientos has found himself outside of the Mets’ starting nine. Jared Young will start in his place at first base and will bat third against Athletics’ righty Aaron Civale.

Luis Robert Jr.

NYM Center Fielder #88
Luis Robert Jr. is not in the Mets’ starting lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Athletics.

The Mets have planned on giving the 28-year-old outfielder regular days of rest this season to keep him fresh and giving the elite production that he has provided so far, there’s no reason to shy away from that plan. Carson Benge will slide over and start in center field while Tyrone Taylor patrols left field and will bat ninth for the Mets against A’s right-hander Aaron Civale.

Byron Buxton

MIN Center Fielder #25
Byron Buxton is absent from the Twins’ starting lineup for Sunday afternoon’s tilt against the Blue Jays.

The 32-year-old outfielder has been struggling at the plate in the early going — hitting .182/.258/.273 with zero homers, one RBI and a 17/5 K/BB ratio in his first 62 plate appearances. Perhaps a day off to clear his head will do him some good. James Outman will start in his place in center field and will bat ninth against Max Scherzer and the Blue Jays on Sunday afternoon in Toronto.

Luis Arraez

SF 2nd Baseman #1

Luis Arraez (wrist) was held out of the Giants’ starting lineup for Sunday’s battle against the Orioles.

Arraez was pulled from Saturday’s game after he was inadvertently kicked in the wrist by Dylan Beavers who was running from first base to second base in the fourth inning. He’s considered day-to-day and shouldn’t require any sort of extended absence.

Ketel Marte

AZ 2nd Baseman #4
Ketel Marte is not in the Diamondbacks’ starting lineup for Sunday’s battle against the Phillies.

It looks to be nothing more than a routine breather for the 32-year-old infielder. Marte is off to a slow start offensively this season, slashing .197/.258/.328 with a pair of homers, seven RBI and zero stolen bases in his first 66 plate appearances while playing every inning of the team’s first 15 games. Ildemaro Vargas will start in his place at second base and hit leadoff for the Diamondbacks on Sunday.

Gabriel Moreno

AZ Catcher #14
Gabriel Moreno (back) remains out of the Diamondbacks’ starting lineup for Sunday’s showdown against the Phillies.

The expectation had been that Moreno would be placed on the injured list on Sunday, and while that’s still possible, it has not happened yet. James McCann will start in his place behind the dish and will bat seventh for the Snakes on Sunday against Phillies’ right-hander Andrew Painter.

Joe Rock

TB Starting Pitcher #68

Rays optioned LHP Joe Rock to Triple-A Durham.

Rock was up to add a fresh arm to the bullpen for a couple of days, though he didn’t wind up appearing in a ballgame. He’ll continue to function as extra pitching depth for the Rays at the Triple-A level.
