Goldschmidt isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game versus Baltimore.

Goldschmidt will take a day to regroup after going 2-for-18 over his last five games. Ben Rice will pick up a start at first base while batting leadoff.

Torkelson isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rays.

Torkelson will get a day to clear his head Saturday after going 0-for-12 across his last three games. While he sits, Colt Keith will start at first base for Detroit while Kerry Carpenter works as the DH and Wenceel Perez starts in right field.

Mead went 2-for-2 with three walks, three runs and an RBI in Friday's 14-8 win over the Tigers.

Mead made just his seventh start against a right-handed pitcher for the season, filling in at third base Friday for Junior Caminero. He took advantage of the opportunity by reaching base in every plate appearance while scoring multiple runs in a game for the second time on the campaign. Mead is hitting a solid .250/.336/.385 across 110 plate appearances this season, but his playing time is too sporadic to make him useful outside of AL-only leagues.

Soderstrom went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and two runs scored in Friday's 5-1 win over the Guardians.

Prior to Friday, Soderstrom had gone just 4-for-31 (.129) with five walks and six strikeouts over a nine-game span since his previous multi-hit effort. He's up to five steals this season, three of which have come in June, but he's not expected to be a big source of speed. The 23-year-old is batting .249 with a .776 OPS, 14 home runs, 45 RBI, 41 runs scored, 11 doubles and a triple over 77 contests this season. With Nick Kurtz having retaken a starting role at first base after a stint on the injured list due to a hip issue, Soderstrom has settled in as the Athletics' starting left fielder once again.

Kurtz went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 5-1 win over the Guardians.

Kurtz took a break from his recent stretch of late homers, instead delivering a first-inning blast Friday. He's gone deep five times during his six-game hitting streak, accounting for half of his 10 long balls on the year. The first baseman has added a .252/.307/.526 slash line, 25 RBI and 18 runs scored over his first 150 plate appearances in the majors.

Burger was removed from Friday's game against the Pirates with left side tightness, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Burger seemed to grab at his left side after striking out in the seventh inning of Friday's contest, and he was replaced at first base when the Rangers took the field to play defense. The Rangers haven't yet provided details on the severity of his injury, but fantasy managers can consider him day-to-day for the time being.

Goldschmidt went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Thursday's 7-3 win against the Angels.

Goldschmidt followed Trent Grisham's second-inning long ball with a solo blast of his own to give New York a 4-2 lead. The veteran first baseman entered the day in a mini-slump, going 0-for-10 over his previous three games. In fact, Goldschmidt has struggled for most of June -- he's batting .180 with just four RBI and two homers through 17 games this month while posting a 28.8 percent strikeout rate. Goldschmidt is still batting .303 on the campaign, however.

The Mariners designated Tellez for assignment Friday, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

The Mariners needed to free up a spot on the active roster for the return of Luke Raley (oblique), and Tellez is the casualty. Tellez has slugged 11 home runs this season, but he's sporting just a .208/.249/.434 batting line and 49:8 K:BB over 62 contests. The 30-year-old is likely to clear waivers and eventually become a free agent.

Kurtz went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and a walk in Thursday's 6-4 extra-inning win over the Astros.

Kurtz has found a taste for clutch power lately, delivering four homers over the last five games, all in the ninth inning or later. His blast Thursday was a walk-off homer against Josh Hader in the 10th. The hot hitting has Kurtz up to a .252/.308/.511 slash line for the year, and he's added nine homers, 23 RBI, 17 runs scored, five doubles and one triple over 37 contests. He's batting .270 (10-for-37) over nine games since he returned from a hip injury.

Locklear is slashing .282/.372/.427 with six home runs, 17 doubles, 38 RBI, 34 runs scored and 12 stolen bases over 68 games covering 293 plate appearances with Triple-A Tacoma this season.

The 24-year-old first baseman is showcasing an intriguing blend of power and speed at first base in the minor leagues. Locklear ranks as Seattle's top prospects for 2025, and he remains an option for a Mariners club that has gotten fairly lackluster production overall across their platoon at the first base. The lefty-hitting Rowdy Tellez has a .720 OPS against righties this season, and the righty-hitting Donovan Solano has a .413 OPS versus southpaws for the year.
