Toronto Blue Jays infielder Andres Gimenez (quad) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. Gimenez made an early exit on Wednesday due to right quad tightness. The assumption is he underwent an MRI and the organization is still waiting for the results. That being said, Gimenez will sit out at least one more game, so fantasy managers should check back on his status ahead of Friday's contest. In his absence, Ernie Clement will cover second base and bat eighth versus right-hander Jose Soriano on Thursday. Fantasy managers should consider Gimenez as day-to-day until further notice.

Los Angeles Angels infielder Luis Rengifo is out of the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. This appears to be a routine rest day for Rengifo who has been struggling at the plate latey. Rengifo has registered only one hit over his last five games, so hopefully a night off will help him get back on track. He has been a regular in the Halos lineup this season, but is really only worth rostering in deep leagues or AL-only formats. Yoan Moncada will cover third base and bat sixth versus right-hander Chris Bassitt on Thursday. Moncada has three hits over his last two hits, so the Angels will ride the hot hand.

Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno (side) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Moreno hasn't started in each of the last two games due to soreness in his left side. The good news is that Moreno was able to come off the bench as a pinch-hitter during Wednesday's game. He'll get back in the lineup on Thursday as Moreno starts behind the plate and bats sixth versus right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Moreno hasn't been hitting like himself lately, but maybe a little bit of time off will help him get his bat back on track.

Atlanta Braves pitching prospect Hurston Waldrep got back on track on Thursday after a few less-than-stellar outings, allowing two earned runs on two hits and two walks while striking out 10 hitters in 5 1/3 innings pitched. Even after this strong performance, the 23-year-old owns a 6.35 ERA and 1.84 WHIP in seven starts thus far (28 1/3 innings). With Bryce Elder and AJ Smith-Shawver up with the big-league club and pitching well enough, along with Spencer Strider (hamstring) about to rejoin the rotation, there's no need to rush the Braves' third-ranked prospect back to the majors. The righty made two starts for Atlanta last season but allowed 13 earned runs in seven innings pitched over two starts. The former first-round draft pick will likely be needed at some point later this season, but there is no need to stash him at this time.

Philadelphia Phillies pitching prospect Andrew Painter made his first start for Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Thursday, tossing three shutout innings, allowing one hit and three walks while striking out five. The 22-year-old wasn't as sharp as he'd been over his four starts at Single-A, throwing only 34 of 60 pitches for strikes. Nevertheless, the Phillies' top prospect (MLB No. 5) remains on track to be called up to the majors within the next month or so, and is one of the top prospect stashes for fantasy.
