Walls was scratched from Friday's lineup against the Blue Jays due to right groin tightness, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Candelario is getting a day off after he went 4-for-7 with two doubles, a run and a strikeout over the last two games. Miguel Cabrera will serve as the designated hitter and bat third.

Urias was scratched from Friday's lineup against the Astros for an undisclosed reason.

Urias wasn't in the lineup for Thursday's series opener against the Astros, and he was removed from Friday's lineup a few hours before the start of the game. Whether he's available off the bench remains to be seen, but Terrin Vavra will start at the keystone and bat eighth.

Donaldson went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in Thursday's 5-4 victory over Boston.

Donaldson delivered a walk-off RBI single off righty reliever Kaleb Ort with nobody out in the 10th.

In addition, the 36-year-old has tallied eight RBI over his last 11 games.

Noel was promoted to Triple-A Columbus on Thursday.

The 21-year-old infield prospect slashed .242/.338/.488 over 67 games in Double-A Akron this season and will now finish his season in Columbus. If he enjoys similar success at a higher level, there is a possibility that he may crack the majors some time in 2023.

Urias isn't in the lineup Thursday against the Astros, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Toro isn't starting Thursday against Oakland.

Toro started the last five games and went 2-for-17 with a double and six runs. He'll get a breather Thursday while Ty France draws the start at the hot corner and bats cleanup.

Ramirez went 0-for-4 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Wednesday's 8-2 win over the White Sox.

Ramirez was one of two Guardians that failed to record a hit in the contest, but he was still productive in his one successful plate appearance. He's slashing just .231/.371/.346 through 21 games in September, though he's logged four stolen bases, two home runs, nine RBI and 12 runs scored. For the season, he's notched 18 steals in 25 attempts while adding 28 homers, 115 RBI, 84 runs scored and a .277/.356/.519 slash line through 145 games.

Suarez (finger) was able to start taking light swings Wednesday with a softer ball and regular baseballs, the Associated Press reports. "Geno feels much better," manager Scott Servais said.

In addition to Wednesday's encouraging developments, Suarez also is slated to take batting practice during the upcoming weekend series against the Royals. If all continues without setbacks, it's possible Suarez will have the chance to get some at-bats in before the conclusion of the regular season ahead of the Mariners' likely postseason run.
