O'Hearn isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against the White Sox.

O'Hearn had started in three of the past four games, but he'll take a seat Friday after generating an RBI in Thursday's contest. Ryan McBroom will take over at first base and bat sixth.

Solano went 4-for-5 with two RBI and a run scored in Thursday's 12-7 extra-inning loss to the Padres.

Three of Solano's four hits were doubles, including one of the run-scoring variety in the seventh inning. He added the game-tying run with a sacrifice fly in the eighth. Solano has hit safely in five straight games (10-for-19) with a homer, nine RBI, four doubles and three runs scored. The 32-year-old infielder is still expected to make most of his starts versus southpaws, but his recent success could earn him more general playing time over the likes of Mauricio Dubon and Wilmer Flores.

Voit went 2-for-4 with a grand slam Thursday against the Orioles.

Voit came to the plate in the first inning with the bases loaded and didn't miss his chance by launching an offering from John Means just over the left-field fence. It was his second home run of the season. However, besides his power production, Voit has struggled at the dish, collecting just one additional hit while striking out in six of 15 plate appearances.

White is not starting Thursday against the Angels, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.

White will retreat to the bench for the first time this season while Jose Marmolejos gets the start at first base in his place. The 24-year-old White is 4-for-24 with a home run and three RBI through six games.

Solano went 2-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Wednesday's 7-6 win over the Padres.

Though Solano is largely expected to work as a short-side platoon option in 2020 after producing a .339/.382/.461 slash line versus lefties last season, manager Gabe Kapler elected to give the infielder a rare start against a right-handed pitcher (Chris Paddack). After providing a single in one of his at-bats against Paddack, Solano came through with his biggest hit of the ninth versus another righty (Craig Stammen) in the eighth, slugging a 380-foot home run to left field. With everyday third baseman Evan Longoria (oblique) due back from the injured list Thursday, Solano likely won't see many more opportunities against righties, but his spot in the lineup versus lefties remains secure.

Freeman went 4-for-5 with a home run, a double and three RBI in Wednesday's win over Tampa Bay.

Freeman entered the game batting .143 following a four-strikeout performance Tuesday, but he responded resoundingly by racking up eight total bases and registering his first home run Wednesday. The 30-year-old got the Braves on the board in the third inning with a two-run shot to right field and collected another RBI with a single in the sixth. With his four-hit effort, Freeman upped his average to a healthy .316.

Cabrera went 1-for-5 with a triple and three RBI on Wednesday against the Blue Jays.

Cabrera was held hitless through nine innings, but delivered the game-sealing hit for the Nationals in the 10th frame. He came up to bat with the bases loaded and two outs, and came through with a clutch triple to stretch team's lead to 4-0. Cabrera has collected five hits in 23 plate appearances this season.

Tellez was ejected during the 10th inning of Wednesday's game against the Nationals.

The 25-year-old struck out looking to begin the frame and was presumably unhappy about the call, so his night was finished a bit earlier than his teammates. Tellez went 1-for-4 with a strikeout as the designated hitter before being tossed.

Naylor is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Giants.

Naylor has appeared in just two games this season (starting one), going 0-for-5 with a pair of strikeouts in those contests. Tommy Pham (groin) is starting at DH for the Padres in this one.

Voit is not starting Wednesday against the Orioles.

Voit started each of the Yankees' first three games, going 1-for-10 with a solo homer and five strikeouts. Mike Ford will make his first start of the year as the first baseman in Voit's absence.
