Brandon Lowe

PIT 2nd Baseman #5

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Brandon Lowe is not in the Pirates’ lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Rays in Pittsburgh.

Lowe plays against some left-handers, but he’ll get a well-deserved day off against Rays’ southpaw Shane McClanahan in this one. At least part of the day, as he’ll likely be used off the bench in a critical spot if necessary. Nick Gonzales will start in his place at second base and bat second for the Bucs. Ryan O’Hearn and Spencer Horwitz will join him on the bench in this one.

Soderstrom 'turning the corner' amid hot streak

June 9, 2026 01:50 PM

Tyler Soderstrom's two-HR day was just the latest sign that the Athletics' slugger is in the middle of a hot streak. Eric Samulski says fantasy managers should expect the ball to "fly off his bat" as summer rolls on.

Colin Rea

CHC Starting Pitcher #53
Colin Rea was lit up for seven runs in 4 2/3 innings in a loss to the Rockies on Tuesday.

Rea allowed nine hits — two of those homers — and he walked three against two strikeouts. The right-hander gave up two in the first, three in the second, and two more in the third in an outing that saw the 35-year-old’s ERA bump up to 5.19 in the process. Matthew Boyd will be back soon from his knee injury, but for now, Rea is scheduled to start against the Giants on Sunday.

Grant Holmes

ATL Starting Pitcher #66

Grant Holmes worked 3 2/3 innings and allowed three runs in a no-decision versus the White Sox on Tuesday.

Holmes was handed a 4-0 lead and breezed through the first three innings, but he gave up a two-run homer to Miguel Vargas in the fourth and an RBI single to Braden Montgomery and couldn’t complete the frame. The 30-year-old walked a pair and picked up a pair of strikeouts in a decidedly mediocre outing from a pitcher who has not shown much consistency in the 2026 campaign. Holmes will try and bounce back against the Mets on Sunday.

Nolan Schanuel

LAA 1st Baseman #18

Nolan Schanuel was removed from Tuesday’s game against the Astros with left calf tightness.

Schanuel, who has been battling a lingering ankle issue the past couple weeks, was hit by a pitch on the lower left leg before making an early exit from Tuesday’s contest. He’s presumably day-to-day for now.

Erick Fedde

CWS Starting Pitcher #47

Erick Fedde worked five innings in relief while allowing just two runs — one of them earned — against Atlanta on Tuesday.

Fedde worked behind opener Brandon Elsert, and Elsert gave up a two-run homer while getting just two outs before exiting. Fedde was much more effective, and he struck out four while scattering six hits before leaving with one out in the seventh. Fedde has looked solid over his last few outings after his ugly start to the campaign, but fantasy managers should be aware that he has to face the Dodgers on Sunday.

Brandon Woodruff

MIL Starting Pitcher #53

Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) threw 68 pitches on Tuesday in a minor league rehab start in the Rookie-level Arizona Complex League.

Woodruff struck out five, issued two walks and was charged with two runs over 3 2/3 innings. The 33-year-old could potentially jump back into Milwaukee’s rotation later this week, but he’ll likely need at least one additional rehab outing before that happens. He’s been out with shoulder inflammation since early May.

Raisel Iglesias

ATL Relief Pitcher #26

Raisel Iglesias took the loss after allowing a walkoff homer in the 10th inning against the White Sox on Tuesday.

Iglesias looked like he was going to pick up a two-inning win after firing a scoreless ninth. That changed with one swing of the bat, as Braden Montgomery took Iglesias deep the opposite way to give Chicago the win. Only one of the runs was earned, and Iglesias still has an excellent 1.21 ERA on the season. A disappointing ending, but it’s hard to be too concerned considering how good the 36-year-old has looked for the overwhelming majority of the season.

Nolan Schanuel

LAA 1st Baseman #18

Nolan Schanuel made an early exit from Tuesday’s game against the Astros after being hit by a pitch.

Schanuel was hit by a pitch from Astros starter Kai-Wei Teng in the opening frame on the same ankle that’s been bothering him for the past couple weeks. He managed to stay in the contest initially, but was lifted a couple frames later. There should be an update on his status following the game.
