Domonic Brown departs game with sore heel

Domonic Brown left Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks with right heel soreness.

The injury doesn't appear to be serious enough to warrant a trip to the disabled list, and Brown should be considered day-to-day. John Mayberry replaced him Saturday.

Vargas (hand) to make Mets debut Saturday

Jason Vargas (hand) is set to make his Mets debut on Saturday in San Diego.

As anticipated. Vargas suffered a fracture in his right (non-throwing) hand when he was struck by a comebacker during a Grapefruit League start back on March 16. He'll wind up missing just under a month of the regular-season schedule. The veteran left-hander doesn't miss many bats, but he might have some fantasy streaming appeal in the right matchups.

Trey Mancini (knee) is in Tuesday's lineup against the Rays.

He's due to hit leadoff and play left field. This is tentative with bad weather expected, but it's a good sign for Mancini's knee. He has missed three straight starts, but was able to pinch hit Monday.

Royals activate C Salvador Perez from DL

Royals activated C Salvador Perez from the 10-day disabled list.

Perez started the year on the disabled list after tearing the MCL in his left knee just before Opening Day, but he went 9-for-24 (.375) with two homers and two doubles during his minor league rehab stint. He'll be a welcome addition to the Royals' lineup and fantasy rosters.

Moncada batting sixth Tuesday vs. Mariners

Yoan Moncada will bat sixth Tuesday against the Mariners.

Moncada was a single short of the cycle Monday while hitting leadoff, but he'll slide down in the order against left-hander Marco Gonzales. It's worth noting that he also batted sixth on Saturday against Astros left-hander Dallas Keuchel before leaving with hamstring tightness, so this could be the way Rick Renteria plans on handling things moving forward. Tim Anderson will hit leadoff Tuesday.
