San Diego Padres outfielder Fernando Tatis Jr. (forearm) is in the starting nine for Saturday's contest against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Tatis was removed from Friday's game after being hit by a pitch. Following the game, the superstar outfielder underwent X-rays but was able to escape the incident with just a bruise. As a result, Tatis will return to action this afternoon and is slated to cover right field. He will bat in the leadoff spot. The 26-year-old has enjoyed an impressive start to the campaign, posting a .345/.419/.602 slash line with eight home runs and seven stolen bases. Under the hood, Tatis has generated an elite .461 xwOBA. He should be viewed as a top play in DFS facing Pittsburgh southpaw Bailey Falter, who enters this game with a high 5.93 ERA.

Cleveland Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez (ankle) is not in Saturday's lineup when the Guardians continue a series against the Toronto Blue Jays. Ramirez suffered a right ankle sprain during Friday's contest against the Blue Jays and will be held out of action as a result. Fantasy managers should monitor his status leading up to Sunday's game. However, the team will likely opt to monitor his workload over the next week to ensure he does not face any setbacks. Through his first 31 games of the campaign, Ramirez has posted a .274/.323/.451 slash line with five doubles, five home runs, and eight stolen bases. Instead, Will Wilson will get the nod at the hot corner and bat eighth. He is not worth targeting in DFS facing Toronto right-hander Kevin Gausman.

Minnesota Twins second baseman Edouard Julien is not in Saturday's lineup when the Twins continue a series against the Boston Red Sox. Julien is typically in the lineup against right-handed pitching, but the Twins will opt to give him the day off. Over his last six games, Julien has posted a .105/.227/.263 slash line with just one long ball. During this stretch, he has held a 7:3 K:BB. Fantasy managers should expect Julien to likely remain on the bench on Sunday as the Red Sox are set to send out left-handed pitcher Garrett Crochet. Instead, the Twins will give Kody Clemens the starting nod at the keystone, and he will bat in the seven-hole. The Twins are worth a look in DFS this afternoon facing young Boston right-hander Hunter Dobbins.

Boston Red Sox infielder/outfielder Kristian Campbell (ribs) remains out of the starting lineup on Saturday when they continue a series against the Minnesota Twins. The top prospect has been day-to-day with rib discomfort over his previous three contests. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status leading up to Sunday's contest. If he is unable to make progress, the Red Sox could eventually shift him to the injured list. Through his first 29 games at the MLB level, the Georgia Tech product has been very productive, posting a .301/.407/.495 slash line with four home runs and two stolen bases. This afternoon, David Hamilton will get another start at the keystone. Hamilton is best to fade in DFS this afternoon, facing Minnesota right-hander Bailey Ober.

Toronto Blue Jays catcher Alejandro Kirk and outfielder Alan Roden will take a seat on Saturday when the Blue Jays continue a series against the Cleveland Guardians. Kirk has started in each of the previous four contests. The backstop has begun to heat up at the plate, posting a strong .353/.353/.529 slash line with six total hits. Roden has not tallied a hit in each of his previous eight contests. As a result, Tyler Heineman will get the nod behind the dish, and Nathan Lukes will get the nod in left field. Fantasy managers should expect both Kirk and Roden to rejoin the starting nine on Sunday. This afternoon, both Heineman and Lukes are not worth targeting in DFS facing Cleveland right-hander Gavin Williams.
