Naylor went 2-for-3 with two walks and two runs scored in Saturday's 9-2 win over the Reds.

The 23-year-old continues to string together hits, going 13-for-40 (.325) over his last 11 games with two homers, six RBI and eight runs, but the walks were a pleasant surprise as Naylor had drawn only four in 28 games on the season coming into Saturday. The hot streak has pushed his slash line up to .265/.312/.412 as he looks to give the Cleveland outfield a consistent threat it's been lacking in recent years.

Santana went 2-for-2 with a pair of singles and a pair of walks in Saturday's 9-1 loss to the White Sox.

Santana has seven games this season in which he's gotten on base at least three times. The 35-year-old first baseman's strong day at the dish didn't directly lead to any run production in the blowout loss. Santana has a .263/.380/.456 slash line with six home runs, 21 RBI, 17 runs scored and a stolen base in 137 plate appearances.

White went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and an RBI double in Saturday's loss to the Rangers.

White hit a two-run home run in the second inning and knocked in Dylan Moore in the fourth inning. It was the second homer for the struggling White and he is now slashing .151/.207/.256 in 2021.

O'Hearn isn't starting Saturday's game against the White Sox.

O'Hearn will be out of the lineup for a second straight game after he went hitless with a walk and four strikeouts in his last four at-bats. Salvador Perez will serve as the designated hitter while Sebastian Rivero starts behind the plate.

Kirilloff (wrist) is scheduled to take swings in the next few days, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

Kirilloff received a cortisone injection after a visit with a specialist Friday, and he could return to game action in the near future if he's able to swing the bat well. However, manager Rocco Baldelli said that Kirilloff could require surgery if his swinging doesn't go as anticipated. Kirilloff's status going forward could be determined soon and will be highly dependent on how his wrist feels after he takes swings.

Manager Aaron Boone said Saturday that Voit (knee) is expected to be reinstated from the injured list early next week, Lindsey Adler of The Athletic reports.

Voit began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday and has gone 4-for-9 with a home run, a double, two RBI, two runs and two walks in three games. The 30-year-old could play a few more games at the Triple-A level but will likely be able to make his season debut during the Yankees' upcoming series in Tampa Bay.

Lowe went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Mariners.

Lowe launched his seventh homer in the third inning, a 451-foot shot to center field, the longest by a Rangers hitter in the short existence of Globe Life Field. He's hit safely in 12 of the last 14 games (17-for-54, .854 OPS) and leads the team with 25 RBI.

Mountcastle went 3-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Red Sox.

Mountcastle had little trouble getting on base Friday, and he blasted his second home run of the season to lead off the sixth inning. In his last five games, Mountcastle has gone 6-for-19 with a solo home run, a double and three runs.

Dalbec went 2-for-3 with a three-run homer, a second run scored and a walk in Friday's 6-2 win over the Orioles.

Dalbec had gone hitless with 11 strikeouts in his last 25 at-bats, but he broke the game open with a three-run shot with two outs in the fourth inning Friday. The 25-year-old is now hitting .191 with two home runs, nine RBI and five runs this year.

Gurriel went 4-for-4 with a homer, four RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 10-4 win over the Blue Jays.

Gurriel launched a two-run shot in the fifth inning and later drove in runs in the seventh and eighth to extend Houston's lead. It was his first homer since April 25, giving him five on the season with 24 RBI. The 36-year-old is slashing .342/.420/.553 through 131 plate appearances.
