Castro went 3-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Saturday's 8-1 loss to the Guardians.

Castro was one of two Tigers to post multiple hits, and he was the only one with an extra-base knock in the contest. The 28-year-old infielder has three multi-hit games in his last seven. For the season, he's maintained a solid .325/.338/.519 slash line with three home runs, eight RBI, 11 runs scored, a triple and four doubles in 80 plate appearances. He's yet to attempt a stolen base.

Arraez went 3-for-5 with a run in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Royals.

Arraez extended his hit streak to eight straight games Saturday, ripping three singles and scoring a run in the contest. During the streak, the 25-year-old has produced six multi-hit efforts and raised his average from .313 to .359. His .455 on-base percentage over 131 at-bats leads the big-leagues.

Jackson (oblique) was activated from the minor-league injured list Thursday.

Jackson missed over six weeks while dealing with an oblique strain, and he's played in only four contests so far this season. Since returning from the injury, the 22-year-old has gone 0-for-4 with two walks, three strikeouts, two runs and a stolen base across two games.

Mendick was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday.

Mendick owns a career .237/.297/.348 slash line in 366 major-league plate appearances, 26 of which have come this season. He'll give the White Sox an additional option in the infield for now, though considering that it was Dallas Keuchel who was designated for assignment in a corresponding move, it's possible Mendick returns to the minors in a few days when the White Sox add another pitcher.

Rosario isn't starting Saturday against the Tigers.

Rosario was initially slated to get a day off Friday before the game was postponed, so he'll instead take a seat Saturday. Steven Kwan will start in left field while Oscar Gonzalez takes over in right.

Kemp isn't starting Saturday against the Rangers.

Kemp went just 1-for-4 with a run and two strikeouts Friday, and he'll be out of the lineup for the third time in the last four games. Sheldon Neuse will start at second base while Chad Pinder takes over in left field.

Brujan isn't starting Saturday against the Yankees, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

Brujan started the last three games and went 2-for-9 with three strikeouts. Taylor Walls will take over at the keystone while Brett Phillips enters the lineup in right field.

Jones (elbow) was designated for assignment by the Orioles on Saturday.

Jones has been at Triple-A Norfolk to begin the season, but he underwent Tommy John surgery Friday and will likely miss the rest of the year. The 24-year-old will cede his spot on the 40-man roster but will likely remain in the organization if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Polanco went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Friday's 10-7 win over the Royals.

Making his return from a three-game absence due to a minor ankle issue, Polanco got the Twins on the board by taking Brad Keller deep in the first inning. The infielder is slashing .237/.335/.385 on the year with five homers, two steals, 20 runs and 26 RBI through 42 games.

Lopez went 3-for-4 with a walk, a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 10-7 loss to the Twins.

The 27-year-old infielder appears to be regaining something close to his 2021 form. Over his last 12 games, Lopez has hit .279 (12-for-43) and notched all four of his steals on the season.
