Seattle Mariners first baseman/outfielder Luke Raley (elbow) is out of the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the hosting Cleveland Guardians due to some elbow discomfort, according to Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times. Raley tweaked his elbow on a swing on Saturday night, and it's something he has dealt with before. Outfielder Dominic Canzone is also getting Sunday off to rest his hamstring. Victor Robles will draw into the starting lineup in right field for the M's and will bat ninth against Guardians right-hander Gavin Williams. Raley played all nine innings in Saturday's 4-3 loss in Cleveland, going 0-for-3 with a walk in his four plate appearances. It doesn't sound like Raley's injury is very serious, so he could be right back in action for Monday's series opener at home against the division-rival Los Angeles Angels. Raley rarely faces left-handed pitchers, but he's hitting .243 (46-for-189) with 14 homers, 35 RBI, and 24 runs scored in 209 plate appearances versus right-handed hurlers this year, making him useful for his power from the left side in deeper leagues. He's rostered in 15% of Yahoo leagues.

The Texas Rangers announced on Sunday that they placed outfielder Wyatt Langford (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list with a strained left hamstring and activated outfielder Evan Carter (oblique) from the 10-day IL in a corresponding move. The oft-injured Langford is back on the IL for the second time in 2026 after already missing around six weeks with a strained forearm. The 24-year-old former fourth overall pick out of the University of Florida in 2023 carries plenty of power/speed intrigue, but his inability to stay healthy has really become a nuisance for his fantasy managers. In his 162 at-bats this year, Langford has hit a strong .278/.324/.500 with an .824 OPS, eight home runs, 20 RBI, 23 runs scored, and six stolen bases, making him stash-worthy in nearly all fantasy leagues while he recovers. Given his injury history, nobody should be expecting Langford to return before the mid-July All-Star break. Alejandro Osuna is starting in left field for Texas in their series finale on Sunday against the Toronto Blue Jays, and he should be in for an uptick in playing time against righties with Langford back on the shelf.

The Baltimore Orioles announced on Sunday that they reinstated catcher Adley Rutschman (head) from the seven-day concussion injured list and designated catcher Sam Huff for assignment in a corresponding move. Rutschman is right back in the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the visiting Washington Nationals and right-hander Zack Littell, doing the catching for right-hander Kyle Bradish and batting third for the O's. Samuel Basallo will move to first base, with Pete Alonso serving as the designated hitter. With Rutschman back, the O's can now mix and match again at catcher, first base, and DH with him and Basallo. The 28-year-old switch-hitting former first overall pick in 2019 out of Oregon State University returns to a .254/.329/.458 slash line with a .787 OPS, eight home runs, 40 RBI, and 26 runs scored in his 54 games played in 2026. The two-time All-Star has struck out at a career-low 14.5% clip, and he could be on the verge of a breakout in the second half with a .275 xBA and .354 xwOBA.

Cleveland Guardians outfielder Angel Martinez (foot), who is on the 10-day injured list with a non-displaced foot fracture, is no longer wearing a walking boot and has been hitting off a tee and playing catch in between rounds of treatment, according to Tim Stebbins of MLB.com. The Guardians said on June 16 that the 24-year-old is expected to miss four to six weeks with his injury. Martinez said on Saturday that he's feeling "way, way better." His timeline could line up for him to return in mid-to-late July, between the All-Star break (July 13-16) and the trade deadline on Aug. 3. The good news for Cleveland is that they reinstated fellow outfielder Chase DeLauter (ribs) from the IL on Sunday. Martinez will be returning to a .239/.276/.442 slash line with a .719 OPS, 11 home runs, 33 RBI, 28 runs scored, and nine steals in his 226 at-bats. His 11 home runs tied his career high set just last year. Martinez has dropped his strikeout rate slightly from 2025 to 21.8% this year, but his career-low 2.9% walk rate doesn't make him a candidate to help in average or on-base percentage. He's rostered in only 16% of Yahoo leagues.

Athletics manager Mark Kotsay said that first baseman/outfielder Tyler Soderstrom (hip) was removed from Saturday night's 5-2 loss to the Los Angeles Angels with some left-hip tightness, according to Michael Huntley of The Orange County Register. The A's will see how Soderstrom is feeling on Sunday, but he will most likely be held out of the series finale against the Halos. Before leaving the contest in the third inning, Soderstrom was hitless in his only at-bat with a strikeout. Colby Thomas shifted from right field to left field, with Lawrence Butler entering the game to play right field for the A's. For now, fantasy managers should consider the left-handed slugger to be day-to-day. If Soderstrom is held out of Sunday's series finale against the Angels, his next chance to play would come on Monday at home for the start of a series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. On the year, Soderstrom is hitting .242 with 13 home runs, 41 RBI, and an .803 OPS, and he remains a strong source of power at both first base and outfield in all fantasy baseball leagues.

The Cleveland Guardians announced on Sunday that they reinstated rookie outfielder Chase DeLauter (ribs) from the 10-day injured list and optioned outfielder Petey Halpin to Triple-A Columbus in a corresponding move. It's unclear yet if DeLauter will be back in Cleveland's starting lineup for Sunday's series finale against the visiting Seattle Mariners and right-hander Emerson Hancock. DeLauter was given the green light to return to the big-league roster after he took batting practice on the field on Saturday with the team. The 24-year-old left-handed-hitting outfielder is returning from a fracture in his right rib cage that kept him sidelined for two weeks. At the very least, he should return to an everyday role between right field and designated hitter against right-handed pitchers for the Guards. The former 16th overall pick in 2022 out of James Madison University got off to a strong start in his first MLB season in 2026 before fading a bit. He's returning to a .263/.337/.408 slash line with a .745 OPS, seven home runs, 34 RBI, 24 runs, and two steals in his 240 at-bats. DeLauter hasn't hit the ball hard consistently, but his plate discipline has been impressive as a first-year player with a 13.3% strikeout rate and 10.4% walk rate. He's rostered in only 37% of Yahoo leagues.

San Francisco Giants first baseman Rafael Devers' bat woke up in Saturday night's 5-0 victory over the visiting Atlanta Braves at Oracle Park, as he went 2-for-3 at the plate with two home runs, four RBI, and a strikeout to raise his season average to .240 and his OPS to .754. His first home run was of the solo variety before he smacked a three-run shot in the third inning to account for all but one of the Giants' runs on the night. It was nice to see from the 29-year-old left-handed slugger, as Devers came into Saturday's contest with just three hits in his last 23 at-bats in his previous six games. After the two-homer performance in San Fran's shutout of Atlanta, Devers is batting .240 on the year with 14 home runs, 43 RBI, and 38 runs scored in 82 games played. The bad news is that he carries an xBA of .222, an xSLG of .424, and an xwOBA of .305 despite having a hard-hit rate in the 93rd percentile. Devers has been mentioned as a potential trade candidate this summer, but with the way he's played and with his contract (he signed a 10-year, $313.5 million deal back in January of 2023), it's going to be hard for the Giants to move him.

Colorado Rockies rookie first baseman TJ Rumfield has become one of the hottest hitters available. The 26-year-old has recorded two hits in each of his past four games and is batting .379/.455/.741 with four home runs, 13 RBI, and eight runs over his last 15 contests. That surge has lifted his season line to .291/.370/.491 with 12 homers and 44 RBI across 285 at-bats. Rumfield's production is worth chasing, even with some regression risk. His .250 expected batting average and .393 expected slugging percentage trail his actual marks, and he has not stolen a base. Still, Colorado continues to use him as its regular first baseman, and the recent production is difficult to ignore. Rostered in 41% of Yahoo leagues and listed by RotoBaller as a 12-team add, Rumfield is a strong pickup for fantasy managers seeking batting average, power, and RBI help.

Chicago White Sox outfield prospect Braden Montgomery is starting to settle in after a memorable walk-off homer in his June 9 debut. He went 2-for-4 with an RBI against the Kansas City Royals on Saturday, June 27, and launched his second big-league homer three days earlier. Through 57 at-bats, the 23-year-old is hitting .246 with two homers, eight RBI, and 10 runs. Chicago is giving Montgomery enough runway to work through his growing pains. He hit .314/.422/.548 with 10 homers, 41 RBI, 52 runs, and five steals across 56 games between Double-A and Triple-A before his promotion, while his 25.4% strikeout rate in the majors shows the adjustment is not finished. He is rostered in 17% of Yahoo leagues, ranks 27th in RotoBaller's Week 14 waiver rankings, and carries an add recommendation in 12-team leagues. The everyday role and prospect pedigree make him a worthwhile upside bet before his price climbs.

Pittsburgh Pirates right-hander Bubba Chandler has steadied himself in his past four starts. The 23-year-old held the Seattle Mariners to one run across 5 1/3 innings on June 25 after working six innings of two-run ball at Coors Field on June 19. He hasn't allowed more than two earned runs in his last four starts and has a 2.82 ERA with 18 strikeouts and eight walks during that stretch. The improved run prevention is encouraging, but Chandler has not totally fixed the command issues that have shaped his season. He owns a 4.42 ERA (4.63 FIP) and a 1.39 WHIP with 73 strikeouts and a league-high 46 walks through 79 1/3 innings. He has made 15 starts in 16 appearances, but the walks make him difficult to trust in standard mixed leagues. Chandler is rostered in 62% of Yahoo leagues and is best suited in deeper formats as a matchup-based option.

Baltimore Orioles catcher Samuel Basallo showed off his power on June 24, launching two homers and driving in four against the Los Angeles Angels. It was his first career multi-homer game, but Basallo is not living off one big night. The 21-year-old is batting .254 with 12 homers, 36 RBI, and 29 runs across 232 at-bats. His .472 expected slugging percentage and 12.0% barrel rate support the production. The weak side of the profile is clear. Basallo has one homer and a .487 OPS in 56 at-bats against left-handed pitching, compared with 11 homers and an .860 OPS against righties. Adley Rutschman (concussion) is close to returning, which could cut into Basallo's starts behind the plate, but Baltimore has already used him at catcher, first base, and designated hitter. Rostered in 50% of Yahoo leagues and RotoBaller's top catcher add in 12-team leagues, Basallo is a priority pickup for managers who need power at the position.
