Diamondbacks selected the contract of RHP Taylor Rashi from Triple-A Reno.

Before being non-tendered and re-signed to a minor league deal over the winter, Rashi pitched 16 1/3 innings for the Diamondbacks last year as a 29-year-old rookie, amassing a 4.41 ERA. He’ll rejoin the bullpen.

Kyle Schwarber

PHI Designated Hitter #12

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Kyle Schwarber is hitting leadoff on Tuesday against the Padres.

Phillies interim manager Don Mattingly has flipped Schwarber and Trea Turner on his lineup card. It’s something the club has done in the past and doesn’t carry massive fantasy ramifications. Schwarber launched his big league-leading 21st round-tripper during Monday’s series opener and has gone deep 10 times in 20 games since the start of May.

Hunter Brown

HOU Starting Pitcher #58

Hunter Brown (shoulder) will make his next minor league rehab start on Friday for Triple-A Sugar Land.

Brown will make at least one additional rehab start before returning to Houston’s rotation. The 27-year-old fantasy ace struck out five over two scoreless innings in his first rehab outing for Double-A Corpus Christi last weekend. The hope is that he’ll be ready to return by early June.

Jose Altuve

HOU 2nd Baseman #27

Jose Altuve (oblique) has resumed swinging a bat.

Altuve is starting to make some real progress after hitting the injured list with a left oblique strain last week. The 36-year-old second baseman will continue ramping up baseball activities and should be ready to head out on a minor league rehab assignment at some point in early June.

Garrett Crochet

BOS Starting Pitcher #35

Garrett Crochet (shoulder) faced hitters on Tuesday in a live batting practice session.

The next step for Crochet will be a minor league rehab start, likely this weekend, at either Double-A Portland or Triple-A Worcester. The 26-year-old ace figures to be ready to return to Boston’s rotation at some point in early-to-mid June. He’s been out since late April working his way back from shoulder inflammation.

Jose Azocar

ATL Left Fielder #28

Braves re-signed OF José Azócar to a minor league contract.

Azócar returns to Atlanta as emergency organizational depth after spending a couple days testing the free agent waters. The 30-year-old journeyman has gone 5-for-15 with a stolen base in nine games for the Braves this season. He’ll head to Triple-A Gwinnett to wait for his next opportunity.

Evan Phillips

LAD Relief Pitcher #59

Evan Phillips (elbow) progressed to facing hitters in a live batting practice session on Tuesday at Dodger Stadium.

Phillips progressed to facing hitters for the third time since last year’s Tommy John surgery. He got in a pair of appearances earlier this month at extended spring training out in Arizona. The 31-year-old former closer figures to be ready to rejoin Los Angeles’ high-leverage mix at some point around midseason.

Luis Robert Jr.

NYM Center Fielder #88
Mets transferred OF Luis Robert Jr. to the 60-day injured list.

The procedural move frees up a spot on New York’s 40-man roster and will keep Robert on the shelf until at least late June. The 28-year-old center fielder has been progressing slowly in his recovery from a herniated disc in his back that put him on the injured list on April 30. There is no timetable for his return as he remains shut down from baseball activities. His extended absence gives top prospect A.J. Ewing some additional runway at the highest level.

Max Muncy

LAD 3rd Baseman #13
Max Muncy (wrist) remains out of the lineup for the fourth straight game on Tuesday against the Rockies.

Muncy will continue resting and recovering after being hit by a pitch on the right wrist last Friday against the Brewers. There’s been zero indication that he’ll require a trip to the injured list and the Dodgers can afford to play a man short on the bench for at least a couple more days. The hope is that he’ll be ready for Wednesday’s series finale. It’ll be Enrique Hernández drawing another start at the hot corner on Tuesday night at Dodger Stadium.

Mookie Betts

LAD Shortstop #50
Mookie Betts is hitting cleanup on Tuesday against the Rockies.

It qualifies as a bit of a shakeup as Dodgers manager Dave Roberts will give Andy Pages an opportunity to hit behind Shohei Ohtani with Betts moving back a couple spots in the order. The 33-year-old veteran has been scuffling for a couple weeks, hitting .157 (8-for-51) with two homers and three RBI since returning from the injured list back on May 11.

Henry Bolte

ATH Center Fielder
Henry Bolte is out of the lineup for Tuesday’s game against the Mariners.

Bolte has started 11 of 15 games since being called up from Triple-A Las Vegas earlier this month. The 22-year-old rookie has held his own at the plate, hitting .282/.370/.333 with three runs scored, zero homers, four RBI and three steals in 46 plate appearances over 12 games. It’ll be Lawrence Butler getting a turn in center field on Tuesday night.
