Seattle Mariners outfielder Luke Raley is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Fantasy managers don't need to worry as his absence doesn't appear to be injury related. Raley missed a game over the weekend due to an illness, but he appears to be fine now. He'll take a seat against a tough lefty Jeffrey Springs. Justin Turner will cover first base and bat sixth during Tuesday's game. The 39-year-old has seen a regression at the plate during the 2024 season. Turner is hitting a lackluster .214 with one home run and 10 RBI in 21 games with the Mariners. The veteran slugger can be avoided in most fantasy formats.

Seattle Mariners outfielder Victor Robles (finger) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Robles is back in the mix after missing a pair of games due to a right finger contusion he suffered over the weekend. He'll bat in the leadoff spot and cover right field against left-hander Jeffrey Springs on Tuesday. Robles has been a nice surprise for Seattle this season, but is hitting .226 with zero home runs and three RBI against left-handed pitching this season. Fantasy managers looking for DFS help should look elsewhere for help.


Los Angeles Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The 34-year-old is attempting to play through a fractured finger. However, Freeman is struggling with only three hits in his last six games. As a result, the Dodgers will give Freeman the night off to get rest and recover. Kike Hernandez will cover first base and bat eighth versus left-hander Cole Irvin. Hernandez has struggled with the bat this season, but his ability to play all over the field gives him value to this roster. He has three hits in his last two games, but Hernandez remains a risky streaming option for Tuesday.


New York Mets outfielder Starling Marte is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The veteran outfielder has been hitting the ball better lately with four hits over his last five games. However, the Mets have been easing him back into action giving him his third rest day on Tuesday since his return from the injured list. Jesse Winker will bat fifth and cover right field versus right-hander Brandon Pfaadt on Tuesday. Winker has been hitting the cover off the ball since joining the Mets roster. He's hitting .288 with one homer and five RBI in 21 games with the team.


Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins (quadriceps) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The lefty slugger returns to the field after missing two games due to left quad tightness. He'll cover center field and bat seventh against right-hander Jack Flaherty. The 29-year-old continues to regress at the plate as he's hitting .225 with 13 home runs and 41 RBI in 119 games this season. The savior for his fantasy value is the fact he has 23 stolen bases, which gives him some value in category leagues.
