Meyers will sit out his second straight game on Tuesday night as he nurses a right calf issue. There’s no real reason for Houston to rush their starting center fielder back this week and risk the issue getting worse so they’ll continue rolling with Taylor Trammell in his place.

It sounds like Gordon checked out fine after being struck in the head by a comebacker during Monday’s loss to the Guardians. The 26-year-old managed to remain in the contest following the incident and should avoid the injured list. It doesn’t seem like he’ll make another start before the All-Star break so it wound’t be shocking to see him optioned to Triple-A to bring in a fresh relief arm.

Alvarez remains shut down from hitting after receiving injections last week to address lingering pain in his right hand that is unrelated to the hand fracture he’s been recovering from. There should be a clearer return timetable from the Astros at some point after next week’s All-Star Game. It’s been a frustrating situation for fantasy managers.

It sounds like Peña will be out through next week’s All-Star break — and miss the Midsummer Classic altogether — as he continues to recover from a fractured rib. At this point it doesn’t seem like he’ll make it back to Houston’s lineup until later this month.

With some of the more obvious candidates opting out, there might be another non-All-Star or two in the mix for Derby spots. Cruz, who has 15 homers this year, is a fun pick with the ability to launch balls as far as anyone. He leads the majors with an average exit velocity of 96.1 mph, and his 122.9 mph home run on May 25 was the hardest ball hit in the league this year.

Outman gets the call to replace an injured Enrique Hernández (elbow) on the Dodgers’ active roster prior to Monday’s series opener against the Brewers. The 28-year-old center fielder has hit .125 (3-for-24) with two homers in nine games this season at the major-league level.

Buxton made the announcement on his Instagram page on Monday afternoon. The Georgia native becomes the fourth confirmed participant, joining Braves icon Ronald Acuña Jr., Mariners mashing backstop Cal Raleigh and Nationals burgeoning star James Wood. The 31-year-old center fielder has crushed 20 homers already this season and is on pace to threaten the 40-homer plateau for the first time in his career.
