Diamondbacks put catcher Gabriel Moreno on 10-day IL because of right hand contusion
TORONTO (AP) — The Arizona Diamondbacks put catcher Gabriel Moreno on the 10-day injured list Thursday because of a contusion on his right hand. The move is retroactive to June 16. Arizona selected catcher Aramis Garcia from Triple-A Reno. To make room on the 40-man roster, right-hander Christian Montes De Oca (back/elbow) was transferred to the 60-day IL. Outfielder Corbin Carroll was not in the starting lineup for Thursday's series finale against the Blue Jays. Carroll left Wednesday's 8-1 loss in the eighth inning after being hit on the left hand by a pitch. X-rays did not reveal a fracture. Manager Torey Lovullo said Carroll asked to play Thursday, but Lovullo preferred to rest the 2023 NL Rookie of the Year. Carroll is batting .255 with 20 home runs and 44 RBIs. Former Blue Jays outfielder Randal Grichuk started in right field for the Diamondbacks on Thursday. Moreno was scratched from the lineup Tuesday after injuring his hand during batting practice. He did not play Wednesday. Moreno is batting .270 with five home runs and 20 RBIs in 53 games. Now in his third season with the Diamondbacks, Moreno was acquired from Toronto following the 2022 season, along with outfielder Lourdes Gurriel Jr., in a trade that sent outfielder Daulton Varsho to the Blue Jays. ___ AP MLB:

Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire: D-Backs-Rockies series ripe with good streaming options this weekend
There are plenty of hitters to stream this weekend in fantasy baseball, led by those who are destined to be in the starting lineup often during an expected high-scoring series at Coors Field. There are also a couple players on the Astros who are exciting options, and a pair of Guardians who could make contributions. The pitching options are less enticing, which means that wise managers should rush to the waiver wire to grab the top options from the list at the bottom of this article. Matchups to Target D-Backs @ Rockies Arizona's outstanding offense (4th in MLB in runs scored) should have a field day this weekend, when they face a Rockies pitching staff that has posted a 6.29 ERA when working at hitter-friendly Coors Field. With two of the projected starters throwing from the left side, Lourdes Gurriel Jr. (52%) is a great option. Gabriel Moreno (31%) will be a good target if he has recovered from a minor hand injury. On the other side of the same series, the Rockies should score often when they face two starters with an ERA over 5.00 and a relief corps with a 5.39 ERA. Ryan McMahon (34%) and Michael Toglia (19%) are the top Colorado hitters to add, and Jordan Beck (16%) can be considered as well. Mickey Moniak (2%) is a deep-league option. Advertisement Guardians @ Athletics The Athletics have posted a 5.97 ERA at their hitter-friendly home park, which puts Cleveland's hitters in excellent position this weekend. Two of the projected starters will throw from the left side, which makes right-handed hitter Lane Thomas (24%) the top player to add. David Fry (4%) is a better option than he initially appears with catcher eligibility and a spot in the heart of the lineup against lefties. Astros @ Angels Houston should have plenty of baserunners this weekend when they face three starters who each have a bloated WHIP and a relief corps that sits 28th in baseball with a 1.52 WHIP. Cam Smith (20%) and Jake Meyers (8%) have been hitting well of late and should each have a productive weekend. Advertisement Yankees vs. Orioles There should be plenty of offense for the home team when a lineup that ranks third in runs scored faces three unimposing starters and a relief corps with a 4.62 ERA. The Yankees have a crowded outfield, but Jasson Dominguez (51%) and Trent Grisham (22%) should be in the lineup enough to provide fantasy contributions. Dodgers vs. Nationals Once Los Angeles gets MacKenzie Gore out of the game on Friday night, they will be set to produce for the remainder of the series against two mediocre starters and a bullpen that ranks 29th in baseball with a 5.90 ERA. The Dodgers have eight hitters who are rostered in more than 75% of leagues, which means that they won't provide waiver-wire assistance. But this is a good reminder for those in shallow leagues to ensure that Tommy Edman, Andy Pages and Max Muncy are in the starting lineup. Matchups to Avoid Red Sox @ Giants Boston hitters could have a quiet weekend when they visit a pitcher-friendly road venue. The Red Sox face three starters with a sub-4.00 ERA and a bullpen that leads the Majors with a 2.60 ERA. With Rafael Devers in the opposing dugout, Jarren Duran is the only must-start player in this lineup. Advertisement Mets @ Phillies The trio of Zack Wheeler, Mick Abel and Jesus Luzardo could give New York's hitters fits this weekend. Once we get past the Mets top trio of Francisco Lindor, Juan Soto and Pete Alonso, the other hitters can slide to the bench. Royals @ Padres Kansas City's unproductive offense (29th in baseball with 249 runs scored) could have another quiet weekend when they face two tough starters (Nick Pivetta and Dylan Cease) and a bullpen that ranks 6th in baseball with a 3.28 ERA. Bobby Witt Jr. and Salvador Perez will remain active everywhere, while Maikel Garcia and Vinnie Pasquantino will stay in the lineup in some 12-team leagues. Seeking Saves Danny Palencia, Cubs, 43% It's shocking that Palencia is still sitting on so many waiver wires. Sure, Ryan Pressly picked up a save on June 12 after Palencia faced the Pirates' top hitters in the eighth inning, but Palencia has earned the team's past two saves and is clearly being deployed as their top reliever. He could earn another save this weekend, when Chicago's high-scoring offense faces some effective Seattle starters. The end result should be some close games. Seeking Steals Jake Meyers, Astros, 8% The Astros could steal a few bases against the Angels this weekend. Los Angeles has been among the worst in baseball at throwing out would-be base stealers, nabbing just 11.5% of runners. Meyers ranks second on Houston with 11 steals and could reach base often against a trio of unreliable starters and a weak relief corps. Streaming starters In order, here are the best streamers for the weekend, with their start date and Yahoo! roster rate in brackets. Advertisement
