Suarez went 1-for-5 with an RBI single and two runs in an extra-inning win over the Orioles on Thursday.

Suarez was involved in multiple critical sequences of the win, as his sixth-inning single that plated Julio Rodriguez knotted the game at 3-3, and he subsequently crossed the plate with the run that snapped a 6-6 tie in the 10th inning. Suarez now has a five-game hitting streak, one preceded by a seven-game streak that lasted from May 16-23.

Toro went 1-for-4 with a game-winning RBI triple, a walk and a run in an extra-inning win over the Orioles on Thursday.

The 25-year-old's 10th-inning three-bagger not only plated Eugenio Suarez with what would turn out to be the winning run, but he extended his hitting streak to seven games in the process. Toro's bat has come to life since mid-May following a positively dismal start to the season, as he owns a .321 average and .998 OPS across the 31 plate appearances he's logged in his last nine games.

Moncada went 1-for-4 with an RBI on Thursday against the Blue Jays.

Moncada missed five consecutive games with a quadriceps injury, but he returned Thursday to play third base and hit third. He tallied a run-scoring single in the eighth inning to record his fifth RBI of the campaign. Moncada has had a fitful start to the season after being sidelined by an oblique injury as well as a few issues in his lower body, and he's hitting just .138/.176/.246 across 68 plate appearances as a result.

Toro (shoulder), who was reinstated from the injured list earlier in the day, entered Wednesday's loss to the Orioles as the designated hitter in the sixth inning and went 1-for-2.

The 25-year-old was an in-game replacement for Mike Ford in his first game off the IL. Toro's single extended the hitting streak he'd started back on May 17 to six games, but he still carries an ugly .184/.241/.368 slash line across 137 plate appearances.

Burger is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Blue Jays, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

With Yoan Moncada (quadriceps) back in the lineup at third base for the first time since May 25, Burger's six-game run in the starting nine comes to an end. Unless Moncada's quad issue crops up again, Burger looks like he'll have to settle for part-time duty at designated hitter moving forward. Most of the righty-hitting Burger's starts are likely to come against left-handed pitching.

Moncada is starting at third base and batting third in Thursday's series finale versus the Blue Jays, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Moncada was out of the starting lineup for the past five games with a quadriceps injury, but he felt well enough to make two appearances off the bench during that stretch. The third baseman comes into the contest in the middle of a 2-for-31 stretch at the plate dating back to May 17, and he only has one multi-hit effort this season in 13 starts.

Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said that Kreidler hasn't played for Triple-A Toledo since Sunday due to a sore right hand, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

Kreidler initially fractured the hand in late April and underwent surgery before he made his return to the Triple-A lineup May 27. However, he appeared in just two games for Toledo before his hand started bothering him again. The setback doesn't seem to be a significant one for Kreidler, but he could miss a few more games until the discomfort completely subsides.

Walls isn't starting Thursday against the Rangers, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Walls started in the last five games, but he'll get a breather after he went 0-for-5 with three strikeouts Wednesday. Yandy Diaz will shift to third base while Harold Ramirez takes over at first.

Bregman went 0-for-4 with a walk, an RBI and two runs scored Wednesday against the Athletics.

Bregman is hitless in his last 13 at-bats, but he still managed to produce Wednesday. He played a key role in the team's ninth-inning rally by working a bases-loaded walk while later coming around to score on a Yordan Alvarez double. Though he is hitting .221 for the season, Bregman has still maintained a .341 on-base percentage and 120 wRC+.

Urias went 1-for-4 with a solo shot and two strikeouts in Wednesday's 9-2 win over the Mariners.

Urias hit one of the Orioles' three homers in the sixth inning as they took control of the contest. He's homered in two of his last three games, and he's 15-for-47 (.319) in his last 12 contests. The infielder continues to show decent power from the bottom half of the order. He's at five long balls, nine doubles, 16 RBI, 19 runs scored and a .233/.279/.384 slash line in 173 plate appearances.
