Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Hits two home runs Friday

Marte clubbed a home run off lefty Jarlin Garcia in the fifth, and hit another solo shot -- his third of the year -- off righty Brad Ziegler in the eighth. It was Marte's first multi-homer game of his big-league career, and he now has 15 RBI and 19 runs scored to go along with 14 extra-base hits.

Giants' Kelby Tomlinson: Optioned to Triple-A
Tomlinson was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Friday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
Joe Panik (thumb) came off the disabled list in a corresponding move, so Tomlinson was the obvious roster casualty. He will serve as organizational middle-infield depth at Triple-A.

Logan Forsythe 2B | LAD
Dodgers' Logan Forsythe: Gets day off Thursday
Forsythe is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Phillies.
Forsythe is hitting .303/.362/.394 over his last 11 games, but he'll give way to Breyvic Velera at the keystone for Thursday's series finale. While he's starting to see the ball better recently, the veteran is still hitting just .205/.255/.295 across 94 plate appearances this season.

Amed Rosario 3B | NYY
Mets' Amed Rosario: Scores twice Wednesday
Rosario went 2-for-4 with a double, a triple and two runs scored in Wednesday's win over the Braves.
It's his third straight multi-hit game, and Rosario now boasts a .350/.381/.650 slash line over his last dozen contests. The 22-year-old also contributed with his glove Wednesday, starting a double play in the eighth inning that snuffed out an Atlanta rally. His overall fantasy production on the season remains flimsy, but Rosario has the tools to put together a big summer if things are beginning to click for him.

Mets' Amed Rosario: Drives in three in Monday's nightcap
Rosario went 2-for-5 with three RBI in a win over the Braves during the second game of Monday's doubleheader.
He chipped in some fantasy value in the matinee as well, going 1-for-4 with his third stolen base of the season, Rosario has put together a nice little hot streak, slashing .313/.353/.594 over his last 10 games with three homers, two steals, six RBI and five runs, and while the 22-year-old will probably have plenty of peaks and valleys in his production ahead, he seems to have found his footing in the majors as he approaches his 100th game with the Mets.

Diamondbacks' Ketel Marte: Two-hit showing off bench
Marte went 2-for-2 with a double and an RBI in the Diamondbacks' 12-5 triumph over the Reds on Monday.
Marte was out of the starting lineup Monday, but that didn't prevent him from posting his first multi-hit game since May 13. Despite the strong showing Monday, Marte is still hitting just .217 over the Diamondbacks' last seven games and hasn't resembled the player that looked like a cornerstone infielder in the second half of 2017. His OPS is down 149 points from the season before, putting Marte at risk of surrendering his everyday role.

Luis Guillorme 3B | HOU
Mets' Luis Guillorme: Smacks double Monday
Guillorme went 2-for-4 with a double and one RBI during the first game of Monday's doubleheader against the Braves.
Guillorme hit an RBI double in the fourth inning that got the Mets out to a 2-0 lead. Through 14 games this season, he's put together a .240/.269/.320 slash line with two RBI and two extra-base hits.

Marte is out of Monday's lineup against the Reds.
