Nootbaar has been dealing with some intercostal soreness in the area of his ribs for the past couple days and will open Monday’s contest on the bench for the second straight game. The 27-year-old outfielder was just starting to get into a groove at the plate, so the timing of the issue is frustrating for fantasy managers. It sounds like he’ll avoid a trip to the injured list for now, but that’s hardly a guarantee. It’ll be Brendan Donovan heading out to left field with rookie Thomas Saggese drawing into Monday’s lineup at second base.

Things unraveled quickly on Fedde in the fifth inning as the Pirates tagged him for six runs on seven hits in the disastrous frame. He failed to record a strikeout over five innings and walked three batters. It was the third time this season that he’s allowed at least seven earned runs with a pair of those outings coming in the last week. He’ll square off against the Cubs’ high-powered lineup on Sunday at Wrigley Field.

Nolan Gorman will take over at the hot corner on Monday night. The decision appears to be precautionary in nature after Arenado jammed his right index finger during Sunday’s lopsided win over the Guardians. The 34-year-old isn’t expected to miss any time, but he’ll get a break from the field, at least until the swelling subsides.

He allowed four hits while walking three and striking out four, but only 47 of his 81 pitches went for strikes. The Cardinals are going to need to see more consistency from Mathews before he threatens for MLB innings.

Gurriel doubled the Diamondbacks’ lead to 2-0 with a solo homer off Logan Webb. He’s now up to 11 on the season, and three of those roundtrippers came in the month of June. Gurriel’s slash of .250/.296/.414 isn’t awe-inspiring, but it’s important to note that slash .181/.204/.343 at the end of April.

Arozarena had just one homer coming in June coming into Monday’s game, and he decided enough is enough. He hit both roundtrippers off Michael Wacha; a solo homer and then a three-run blast to bring his season total to 10. He’s not been a major contributor in the average category at .244, but 10 homers, 16 stolen bases and 37 RBI have made him relevant in most leagues over the first three months.

The 373-foot homer off Joe La Sorsa was his sixth of the season and his first off a left-hander. He’s obviously way off last year’s pace, but his exit velocity numbers haven’t changed much, and there’s still a chance he’ll reemerge as a top fantasy outfielder over the final three months.
