Cincinnati Reds third baseman Jeimer Candelario (knee) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. The switch-hitter will get another day off to rest and manage his right knee tendinitis issue. The hope is that Candelario will be fine within a few days and won't require a stint on the injured list. The Reds are likely going to wait and see how he progresses before making a move. In the meantime, Noelvi Marte will cover third base and bat sixth versus right-hander Miles Mikolas.


Minnesota Twins shortstop Carlos Correa (arm) was forced to exit early during Thursday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Correa took a 94-mph fastball off his right arm which forced him to exit the contest. The assumption is that the 29-year-old will undergo further testing to determine the severity of the injury. Kyle Farmer shifted over to shortstop after Correa was forced to leave. He could see additional playing time or Brooks Lee might receive a call-up if Correa does miss an extended period of time.UPDATE: Correa doesn't have a fracture in his wrist after undergoing an X-ray and he's considered day-to-day with a right-wrist contusion.



Los Angeles Angels infielder Brandon Drury (illness) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the Detroit Tigers. The veteran slugger is set to miss his seven straight game due to an illness. It's honestly surprising that the Angels haven't placed Drury on the injured list considering he has been out since last Wednesday. Luis Rengifo will cover second base and bat second versus right-hander Jack Flaherty on Thursday.


Cleveland Guardians outfielder Will Brennan (rib) has been placed on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to June 25. This move was expected after Brennan missed some time due to rib-cage inflammation. There isn't a timetable for his return right now, so the hope is that this won't be a lengthy absence. In the meantime, Daniel Schneemann figures to see more playing time in the outfield. He has been decent at the plate but doesn't offer a ton of upside in terms of fantasy value.


Cincinnati Reds outfielder Jake Fraley (calf) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals. This doesn't come as much of a surprise after Fraley was scratched from Wednesday's lineup due to a lower leg contusion. He underwent an MRI on his right calf on Thursday, but he's still waiting for the results. There should be more information on his status soon. For now, fantasy managers can consider Fraley as day-to-day but that could change. Will Benson will cover right field and bat eighth versus right-hander Miles Mikolas on Thursday.
